Kink are firing up a new series called “One Hit Wednesday” where they will be posting some raw footage from past edits that give you a little more of a look that went into a clip. First up, Connor Lodes and his wild drop he did in his WELCOME TO THE TEAM VIDEO!
“For episode #1 Connor Lodes gets his Welcome to Kink ender on a wild setup in Barcelona, Spain. After a couple lucky mistakes, he bombed this rail hop to needle thread perfectly. Gnarly. ”
The east coast has been getting hammered with snow all winter long, so Justin Care and Jim Borio have been getting some time in at the Black Diamond skatepark. Here’s a fresh video from a VERY productive session where both of these guys stacked some heavy clips for Merritt. Both of these guys are WAY too under rated.
Some of you might know this, but Kye Forte is a lover of all things with two wheels! Not only does he crush it on a BMX bike, but he’s real good on a mountain bike and dirt bike as well! Red Bull caught up with him to talk about how he got into bikes, the similarities and differences between all three and of course to film a ton of dialed riding! Check it!
“As a BMX dirt jumper, Kye Forte is one of the UK’s most celebrated and influential riders. He’s not a man who is happy to confine his love for two wheels to the smooth berms and sculpted lips of his local trails however.
Taking influence from his father, Kye has had a long-running love affair for the noise and fury of motocross. More recently though, he’s turned his attention to downhill mountain biking which he feels provides the perfect medium between the two.
Watch the above video to hear Kye talk about his passion for two wheels and demonstrate how he seamlessly shifts his trademark, fluid riding style between the disciplines.”
Sony Action Cam sent mountain bike rider Brett Rheeders to Malaga, Spain to get the full experience from the one and only, Ruben Alcantara! This video gives us a look at the riding they got in from Ruben’s park to some street and dirt spots that Ruben took the guys to. Needless to say, the footage is damn good and one you gotta see!
“It would be a lie to say that we aren’t constantly inspired by all forms of biking, whether it’s BMX, slopestyle, freeride, or even road. Last year, Brett Rheeder’s first Dream Capture episode, Airs and Alleys, was heavily inspired by a trip produced by BMX legend Ruben Alcantara where he placed portable ramps throughout an urban environment. This year, when we were presented with the opportunity to film with Ruben in his hometown of Malaga, Spain for Rheeder’s second Dream Capture episode, there was no chance we were turning it down.

Here’s one we spotted over on Can You Dig It that will have all you trail builders rolling on the floor laughing! This is how they keep The Wheel Mill running smooth year round! No… dig… no ride?
“Can’t wait for trail season? Our jumps are groomed to perfection every day for your enjoyment. If you were curious how we get it so smooth, take a look at how The Wheel Mill employees toil daily maintaining the jumps to keep the blue groove smooth and the stoke high. Come ride the closest thing you’ll get to the woods this winter.

There’s no denying that there is no shortage of photographer these days, but it’s always pretty easy to spot the guys who have been putting in the time and work to make their photos look amazing. Todd Nichols name is one that might ring a bell, between his work we have featured on the site in the past or by bumping into him while he has been out on the road. Todd has been riding BMX and shooting photos longer than a good number of you reading this and with all those years comes a lot of experience, miles and snaps of the shutter that have lead to some great photos. We were thinking it would be rad to get to know Todd a little better and showcase some of his work over the years in a new interview and PHOTOGALLERY! Check out the interview by making the jump and then after, get a look at 29 of his photos in the photogallery! Ready? Let’s do this!
