It’s a new month and like clockwork Brian Tunney has delivered once again with a fresh edit giving us a look at what he got into during his flatland sessions over the course of November! Although he was still fighting issues with his neck and back, it looks like he was still able to get some productive sessions in at his new place. Take a look!
“At the beginning of the month, I was still enduring some pretty serious side effects of the pinched nerve in my neck. I couldn’t really use my left arm and everything from sleeping to sitting at a desk caused me pain. But with help from the fine folks at Airrosti Physical Therapy, I was beginning to see a light at the end of the tunnel.
Then we finally moved into our new house, and the stress of that had me back in physical therapy. But as things were unpacked and we began to settle into a somewhat normal existence, I could feel things loosening up in my arm, neck and shoulder.
I’m still not better. There are residual flare ups and occasional spasms, but on November 14, I decided that enough was enough and I needed to ride. I started out very mellow and intend to keep it that way for at least another month, which is where the garage comes into play….
I have a garage spot now! And it’s great to have a riding spot at home, but it’s also kinda small and not a place where I can get into complex rolling moves. So for now, it’s gonna be my “safety spot” to mess around in.
As for this month’s riding, it’s nothing new or spectacular but it’s two weeks of me getting the feeling back after a month off the bike. I missed it very much.” – Brian Tunney
Valentin Moder coming through with a fresh one for DSK! Hit play to check out over 7 minutes of fresh footage he filmed over the past year on the streets of Austria filled with grinds, jibs and more! Take a look because this is a real solid watch from start to finish.
“I’m really happy to finally share this one. We filmed on and off over the last year or so and i tried to really focus on filming with my HPX in the streets during that time, rather then just film some daily Instaclips that get more boring to watch day by day. The biggest THANKS go out to Matteo Nemeth and Aaron Theuretzbacher, who filmed most of this video. I think it’s one of the most important things for a Video Part to have someone behind the camera that doesn’t give you the feeling that you’re taking way too long to land something. So THANK YOU for never complaining and being insanely patient. And of course a big S/O to fourpegsbmx.com for always keeping me rolling good on two wheels and Kream.at for keeping my body feel good!” – Valentin Moder
Although it’s all MTB, this new Christian Rigal video for Adidas has plenty of BMX influence from the setups and riding, all the way to who helped make this video possible from Darryl Tocco filming and editing to Corey Walsh, Kris Fox, Jason Wats, Matt Cordova, Scotty Scamehorn and more helping to build the setups, all the way to Kelly Bolton doing the graphics! There was no shortage of BMX influence and people involved. This is a wild one and a damn good watch, so get on that play button and take it all in!
“adidas Five Ten Presents CROSSOVER
Christian Rigal Brings Fresh Ideas and a New Perspective to Mountain Biking, Inspired by His BMX Roots.
Rigal is becoming a household name in the mountain bike community for his fast paced, all-out approach to riding. His history in BMX is undeniable with some of the most stand out video parts of a generation but his new passion for MTB is a breeding ground for creativity and a chance to look at the world with fresh perspective.
Rigal’s latest video part ‘CROSSOVER’ is his interpretation of how to ride a trail bike and what you can build when you collaborate and bring together a group of like-minded friends. To the purists, his different approach to riding might feel like a far cry from the more traditional side of mountain biking, but for Christian, it’s been a refreshing new way to push himself and see what’s possible on a big bike.
“What started as a blank canvas on a friend’s property quickly turned into a BMX inspired MTB zone. Using an old Church foundation from 1876 as our centrepiece, we went to work for 9 days on the tools and machines to make this crossover dream build a reality. Five Ten let me run wild with this and I can’t thank them enough for trusting me and my vision for this project. Opportunities like this are rare and I am stoked to have had the chance to bring some of these crazy ideas to life, and hoping it inspire others to look at things differently and do the same!” – Christian Rigal
After countless days of prep and brainstorming, Rigal worked with the Shire Built crew alongside a talented list of friends who worked tirelessly to bring their shared vision to life. Behind the lens, Christian brought BMX legend in his own right, Darryl Tocco into the project to bring a more traditional BMX/Skate perspective to the edit.
“This project would not have been possible without Matt and Lex who allowed us to use their land, along with the collective efforts of all my friends. I hope this video inspires others to get out and make the most of your surroundings! You don’t need a mountain to ride mountain bikes.” – Christian Rigal

You always know you’re going to see something good when a video pops up from the streets of South Africa. Here’s a new split edit featuring Murray Loubser and Jason Prins going to work on a bunch of spots. This video has a pretty chill and laid back vibe, but there’s a ton of hetat packed into this one, so get on that play button!
“Double trouble via Murray Loubser and Jason Prins out in South Africa. Filmed on a bunch of different missions throughout Cape Town, these two killed it both on the bike and behind the camera. Those last handful of clips are outrageous!” – DIG
Oh yeah! This is what we’re talking about. Freedom BMX just dropped this new video featuring Michael Hanfler absolutely shredding trails and concrete parks down in New Zealand! If you’re looking for a fast paced video packed with speed and style for miles, this is definitely for you. The second half is more chill, but this video as a whole should get you fired up. Get on that play button.
“He shat the shovel, but he didn’t shat no deputy! Check out German Verde rider Michael Hanfler absolutely killing it over in New Zealand.
It’s been two years since Michael Hanfler left for Down Under, where the north German frequent flyer initially spent a few months in Australia before he went on to New Zealand.
There the SIBMX driver in spe * is digging new hills even more diligently than in his former adopted home of Bremen – and that really means something! The hill landscape that our trail rider of the year 2019 drives in his new “I Shat The Shovel” video is definitely monstrous. There is a lot of work involved. You will probably look in vain for anything comparable in this country. Perhaps that is also a reason why Mr. Hanfler has still not returned to our latitudes.
But Michael has not only remained true to his passion for digging, as you can see above, he also still knows how to operate his works professionally. A clear case of an impressive performance, as not only the style police click their tongues in recognition. That much is certain, if “I Shat The Shovel” had gone online earlier, the chances of being nominated for Video of the Year at the 2021 freedombmx Awards would have had a good to very good chance.
Well, so be it! As we judge Michael, something like that is probably not that important to him anyway. He’s happy to shovel new jumps in the forest at night and massage them through during the day. And if you really think about it, it really doesn’t take more to be happy. It’s a shame you can’t travel to New Zealand right now! We’d love to take lessons from the Grand Master of Lifehack!
* Michael is waiting for a SIBMX sponsorship as soon as / if he comes back. More on this in his interview, which is currently in progress and will appear here on our website shortly.

You know a video is amazing when you can hear a song and it immediately reminds you of a specific video part. Chris Doyle‘s section from the System Cycle “System Video” from 2004 is a perfect example of that. Watch Chris absolutely crush trails, ramps and street spots to the Oasis “Morning Glory” song that goes so perfectly with the riding. Just under 5 minutes of absolute hammers that you cannot pass up. Hit play and enjoy! Shout out to Snakebite for uploading this gem!
It has been a while since we’ve seen a fresh video from the Performance BMX crew over in France, but they’re still out in the streets putting in work!
