The Shadow Conspiracy – “What Could Go Wrong” Trailer

June 2, 2015

The anticipated DVD from The Shadow Conspiracy “What Could Go Wrong” is due out in August and it’s bound to be an absolute BANGER of a BMX video. They just released the trailer for the video and it’s just over 2 minutes of what we can describe as a WILD RIDE through three years of filming. We CANNOT WAIT to see this video!

“What could go wrong? A question every rider asks themselves before trying something new. Sometimes the answer is good and sometimes, it’s bad. You might find yourself rolling away from a set of stairs smiling ear to ear, or you may find yourself at the bottom of that same set of stairs bloody and beaten. There’s never a definite answer. Whatever happens though, in the end, it’s really about how you got there.

Hit play to watch the new trailer for “What Could Go Wrong?”, the third full-length video from The Shadow Conspiracy coming August 2015!

Product: Vans – Scotty Cranmer Signature SK8-Hi Pro

June 2, 2015

Take a closer look at the Scotty Cranmer signature SK8-Hi Pro shoe from Vans…

Update:

Get a look at Scotty’s new 2019 signature shoe here — Vans Scotty Cranmer Signature SK8-Hi Pro Colorway 2019

We got the first look at Scotty Cranmer‘s 2nd signature shoe from Vans today in a promo video that dropped online. We were stoked on the news and figured it would be a good time to take a closer look at the SK8-Hi Pro with the Scotty Cranmer signature colorway and talk about some of its finer details! Ready to get a closer look? Let’s do it!

For Scotty Cranmer’s second signature shoe from Vans, he decided to go with the classic SK8-Hi Pro model with his own twist on it in the color department. This shoe uses the Pro Vulc Construction with a blacked out upper that is made from pig suede and ballistic waxy buck to give it a unique look that is clean and simple. Inside you can find the UltraCush HD footbeds with a custom photo of Scotty’s dog, Clarance. As always, you can find the Cans Original waffle outsole o the bottom with the Duracap reinforcement underlays to make sure you aren’t wearing through these and getting plenty of grip on the pedals.

They kept a clean look with the shoe throughout with a fully blacked out kit with a small Red vans tag on the side, a Vans tag on the tongue and the classic Vans rubber label on the heel.

The pig suede and ballistic waxy buck material they used for the upper of the shoe is durable and looks really clean.

You can’t go wrong with the trusty Vans Waffle sole. Plenty of traction and support to keep your feet on the pedals.

Scotty’s dog, Clarance, can be found on the UltraCush HD footbeds to keep your feet comfortable and protected. “Clarance, my bulldog, he really doesn’t give a shit about anything.”

Update: These shoes are sold out and no longer available…. Sorry, guys!

The Scotty Cranmer signature SK8-Hi Pro BMX model shoe is available now in sizes of 6.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 10.5, 11, 11.5, 12 and 13 for $75 direct from the Vans Webstore or through BMX shops, stores and mail-orders that carry Vans worldwide.

To celebrate the lucky 13 years of riding, Dima “Mono” Osokin dropped this mix of footage from some of the sessions he has been getting in so far this year.

June 2, 2015

Vans just released this new promo for Scotty Cranmer‘s signature SK8 Hi-Pro signature model colorway that’s out now! Scotty talks a little bit about the shoe and why he chose that model and some of the features, then proceeds to crush it at a cement park. Looks like a solid BMX shoe to us!

“Scotty Cranmer debuts his 2nd shoe with Vans using the Skate Hi model. Scotty has lived three lifetimes in BMX and is still the man to beat at any contest that has a ramp on the course. No one will forget the young man from New Jersey, and this is the shoes that takes him sky high.
