May 15, 2014

The other day we were talking about the Future of BMX and this Next Generation Jam that the Halahan brothers and Mike Potoczny threw at The Wheel Mill is a perfect example of how good the kids are getting! Check this out!

“Lukas and Nathan Halahan along Michael Potocny created The Next Generation Youth Jam hosted by The Wheel Mill and supported by Gform, Shadow Conspiracy, Subrosa, Sunday Bikes, Jaunt, Deek Design, Pro Bikes, Lil Shredders Bikes, Odyssey, KDM, Profile Racing, Camp Three Clothing, Bmx Groms. This past March Next Generation Jam held a jam/pro demo at The Wheel Mill bike park in pittsburgh PA. It was such awesome sight with kids of all ages shredding and riding things that they may never have tried before.

XSA Store – Ilyas Ganzhaev Welcome Edit

May 15, 2014

Here’s one we had sent in from Russia welcoming Ilyas Ganzhaev to the XSA Store team! Check him out putting in work on the streets and park in Sochi to bring the news!

“This video has been chilling on our hard drive for a while now. It has been shot in march, when suddenly our boys Queso and Yuriy took a trip to Olimpic capital – Sochi – in search for adventures. Eventually they got enough material for making this tiny masterpiece edit.
Behold! This is STRESS – the one and only, the best of the best Russian street brand #1. In opposite to putting their logo onto catalogue parts, these guys for many sleepless months develop their world-industry changing ideas. Their parts got soul. Russian soul.
And this position is very close to ours, as every of the skateparks we construct is unique, as a handmade painting.
Now back to the one who’s guilty. No need to introduce this guy: he’s one of the Russia’s most talented and technical riders. For more then a year he’s been a part of the STRESS crew. The true style and grinds from Dagestan. Behold – Ilyas Ganzhaev.
We’re proud you’re with us.”

Sneak Peek: Volume – VLM Grips

May 15, 2014

The guys over at Volume just dropped a preview of their new VLM team grip that will be out here soon! Below is what they had to say about the design for these guys!

“We wanted something similar to the classic mushroom design that has been such a comfortable staple in BMX for so long, similar to our sister brand Demolition Parts Missile grips. But, we also wanted a design that would give some lateral resistance to prevent throttle grip that is common with the one directional vertical ribs of mushroom grips. That, combined with modern rubber compounds and technology available today that maximize longevity and right-out-of-the box cushy feel and grip, this is the end result and we are stoked! A couple of other small features you might notice is the slight knurling on the high flange and the low flanges to add a little extra grip.”
