Andrej Mataj coming through with a rad new video for Shajba Co.! This video has a ton of great riding with big lines filled grinds, tailwhips, manuals and more. This has a good variety of riding on different street spots which keeps it real interesting from start to finish. Well worth giving this one a look!
Red Bull Signature Series – Simple Session 2015
Did you catch Simple Session 2015 on TV the other weekend for Red Bull’s Signature Series? Well, you’re in luck because they have uploaded the entire show online for your viewing pleasure! This gives you a good look at the riding that went down along with a lot of insight into the event and some of the action that went down outside of it. They have Chris Doyle commentating and he absolute rules at it! This is a real good watch, so kick back and enjoy!
“Once just a local competition, Simple Session has now developed to become one of the biggest indoor BMX contests on the planet. Massive tricks from Bezanson and a few never-been-dones from BMX’s finest talent made for one of the best events ever. Take a look back at the entire BMX event from the 2015 edition of Simple Session!”
Out of the Box – Wethepeople Reason with Dillon Lloyd
It’s pretty amazing how good complete BMX bikes are these days. You literally can pull these things out of the box and throw down some heavy riding on them and they will hold up like a custom build. Dillon Lloyd recently pulled a 2015 Wethepeople Reason complete out of the box and went to work on it like it was his own bike. So good!
“The WeThePeople Reason is good to go straight outta the box… Dillon Lloyd did his best to thrash this thing and it held up 100%. At 499.99 this thing is dialed.

Why You Should Throw A BMX Contest or Jam
There are a lot of reasons why BMX jams and contests are awesome. We’re not talking X-Games and Dew Tours, we’re talking the smaller, local, less publicized BMX contests and Jams. Over the years, I personally have thrown around 15 or 20 jams or contests at a handful of skateparks around Minnesota. Some have been small, some have been big and some, like the 4th of July, do a lot for the local scene more than a lot of people might think. With each event, you get the opportunity to meet new people, expose people that aren’t familiar with BMX to the sport, spend time with some friends you don’t get to see often and most importantly, have an excuse to have a fun day for those people to enjoy. Over the weekend, we were involved with an event that really opened up our eyes as to just how beneficial it can be when the exposure to people that aren’t familiar with it can actually be. Let’s talk about this…
Lewis Cunningham Summer 2015
We have been watching Lewis Cunningham progress over the past few years and it has been awesome to see his style really develop. It has been a little while since we’ve seen a new edit from Lewis, but that changed today when these raw clips from a weekend of riding surfaces. Lewis, now 13 years old, has developed into a real solid street rider with plenty of grind control on all four of his pegs. Watch as he goes to work on ledges and some real man sized rails in this quick BMX video!
Stay Strong – Craig Teague In California
Stay Strong‘s Craig Teague recently made his way over to the United States from the United Kingdom where he hit the road with a few friends traveling from Riverside, California through Las Vegas and Arizona then all the way to Austin, Texas.

“UK Stay Strong rider Craig Teague visits Stephen Murray in California for a BMX trails road trip. 5000 miles driven, 7 times stopped by the police, Banned from 17 Vegas hotels, 1 smashed car window, many mexican takeaways and lots of other things that cant be mentioned.

A few weeks back, Mutiny Bikes‘ Mariano Santiago, Andy Martinez, Jeff Wescott, Justin Simpson, Grant Castelluzzo and Adam Accardi loaded up in the van to spend a few days cruising the plentiful spots of Albuquerque, New Mexico! This video, filmed and edited by Ryan Navazio, is the outcome of the trip. Packed full of damn good riding and great spots, you can find plenty of grinds, a whole lot of ass hauling to jump fences and more! We are really digging the timelapse clips throughout this one as well. Hit play because this is one hell of a BMX video!
