Product: GoPro – Hero3+
Just when you thought that the GoPro was super dialed… They introduce the Hero3+ which is even better! Check out the trailer above to see some footage from the camera! No BMX, but I figured with so many of us using them to film these days it is more than worth seeing. Plus, I kind of want a pet lion now.

Mutiny – Cool Story Bro – Final Video
During Interbike, I was fortunate enough to get an early look at the final “Cool Story Bro” video from Mutiny Bikes. The video is the final part of a series of web videos that have dropped over the past year giving us a closer look into the lives of team riders Josh Bedford, Matt Roe, Justin Simpson, Brandon Hoerres and Tom “Robbo” Robinson. The final video features the riding footage that was saved during the filming of each of the original profiles along with with a ton of footage from the rest of the team.
I was going to drop a review tonight, thinking the video was dropping tomorrow, but now that it’s online, I figured I’ll just the rambling I would do talking about how good the riding footage from the team is and the film work that Richard Forne did for this one, and just let you enjoy it. I have also embedded all of the original Cool Story Bro videos for you to go back and enjoy again! So without further adieu, hit that play button to enjoy… Bro.
“The final video from our Cool Story Bro series. Filmed in the USA, Spain, France, Germany and England from January to August 2013. Featuring Robbo, Matt Roe, Josh Bedford, Justin Simpson, Brandon Hoerres, Grant Castelluzzo and more.
