If you have been following Hadrien Picard’s Lumia Pureviews series this past year, you would have caught on by now that he has been creating some amazing videos with some amazing riders in some pretty untouched locations all from Lumia phone. The other day we were treated to the latest video in the series featuring Erik Elstran and Luc Legrand in Belgrade, Serbia! Belgrade is one of those places that we simply haven’t seen anything from in the past, so giving these guys free reign on some untapped spots was bound to lead to some amazing things. Needless to say, both Luc and Erik were able to produce some amazing footage. Today, we have a little behind the scenes look with photos that Hadrien shot throughout the trip for you to enjoy! Check out the full photogallery by visiting the link below!

Alex Magallan Stepping Down From Being Pro

January 9, 2015

Well here’s some very unexpected news! It looks like Alex Magallan has decided to give up riding as a professional. Today, Tree Bicycle Co. announced the news. Alex didn’t specify if he was also stepping away from the Sunday Bikes team as well, but based off what he said it sounds like that’s his plan. Alex had a baby a few months back, so I’d imagine his priorities and responsibilities has changed quite a bit. Hopefully we’ll still see footage from him in the future! Check out some clips from 2014 below!

“It’s a sad day here at Tree HQ as our boy Alex Magallan has decided that he will be stepping down from professional riding. Alex is the man, an all around good human, and of course an absolute shredder on the BMX. We’ve had alot of good times with Alex over the years and only wish him, and his beautiful family all the best! Stay Shredding and thank you for being such a badass and everything you’ve done for us! – Tree Bicycle Co.

“So I’ve decided to step down from riding professionally this year. It’s been a good run, but it’s time for a new chapter in life! Thanks to everyone who made the great times and travels possible! Here a link to some raw footage from last year. Cheers!” – Alex Magellan

Vans – Bruno Hoffmann Sk8 Mid Pro Colorway Promo

January 9, 2015

Last week we got a look at Bruno Hoffmann’s signature Sk8 Mid Pro Colorway, now today we have this promo video giving us another look at the shoe and some dialed riding clips from the streets of Toulouse, France! Hit play and enjoy. Damn do those shoes look good!

“Bruno has been part of the Vans family since 2008 and since then he’s been pushing the envelope like no other. Starting as an all around talented rider, today he is one of the most influential street riders out there and respected worldwide.

Always pushing the limits on what’s possible in technical street riding, Bruno has developed a very unique style on and off his bike. He doesn’t care too much about competitions, nevertheless he still holds the World Champion title in BMX street from 2012 and also owns an X Games Silver Medal.

Bruno has accomplished many things already in his young career and now we would like to introduce his own colorway shoe with Vans. He picked the Sk8 Mid Pro because it has the right feeling to the pedals and also offers ankle support without losing foot mobility. He´s a huge fan of the traditional Vans gum sole color and together with a dark grey main color, the shoe won’t start to look “dirty” too fast. He also picked waxed laces as they are a little more sturdy. Great combo Bruno!

Please enjoy this edit Bruno filmed to introduce his Vans Sk8 Mid Pro colorway, filmed and edited by Alex Baret in Toulouse in just a two day visit.

Music: “Foolish Love” by Monophonics” – Vans

Brian Kachinsky On GT Bicycles

Brian Kachinsky GT Bicycles BMX

It looks like Brian Kachinsky has found himself a home on the GT Bicycles team for 2015 and the foreseeable future! I know GT have been making some big changes and I think this is definitely a step in the right direction. Expect plenty of good things to come from this new deal! Check out the official word below!

“I’m proud to announce today that I am now riding for GT Bikes. It’s an honor to join with a brand that’s been making BMX bikes for longer than I’ve been alive. I’ll never forget the moment that I walked into my local bike shop as a 12 year-old and walked out with a chrome GT Vertigo which solidified my love for BMX. In 2015 things have come full circle and I’ll be riding the same brand of bike that got me hooked for life in beginning. I look forward to being a part of the team and working with everyone at GT. Fun times ahead! (photos by @timothyburkhart)” – Brian Kachinsky
