Cohen Thurecht 2014 Edit

February 2, 2015

If you like technical tailwhip and barspin combos, Australia’s Cohen Thurecht has a ton of them for you to check out in this new edit!

“Legend has it if you say barspin three times in a mirror, Cohen will kill you in your sleep… haha

Cohen brought me these clips on a USB and asked me to throw them together for him before he flew off to Europe for a month or two. He kills it and I’ve known him for a long time. One of the easiest people to get along with! Enjoy and Follow Cohen and myself on instagram @COHENT_BMX

Ratboy “Shine 3”

February 1, 2015

Ratboy’s section in the “Shine 3” is still on a whole different level…

It’s always fun looking back on classic BMX videos that were way ahead of the curve. When it comes to riders that were way ahead of their time, there’s no doubt that Ratboy was so far ahead of his times with a crazy mix of combos you just don’t see riders doing, and a ton of style.
The way Ratboy could mix rocket manuals and rocket ice grinds with crankflips, barspins, x ups and more was so un real. No freecoaster? No problem… Just jump on the back pegs and you pretty much accomplish the same thing. Hit play and get inspired… BMX can always use riders like Ratboy to really push things in a new direction.
