“Drew and I got this part done for the Hunt bmx dvd for 2012. Thanks for everyone who showed us spots and let us get it done by the deadline. Also thanks to JD for throwing us a premiere for the dvd and Jimmy Mac for the clearance on the music.

Kevin Robinson’s Farewell to X-Games Competition

August 5, 2013

Kevin Robinson announced that he was going to be retiring after this past weekends X-Games in Los Angeles. Kevin discusses his decision in this new video from Red Bull that shows a little bit of his past along with what solidified his decision up to his final run this past weekend. Definitely an understandable reason to step away from things and I’m sure this isn’t the last we’ll be seeing of Kevin anytime soon.

“Kevin Robinson competed at the very first X Games (then called the Extreme Games), back in 1995 in his home state of Rhode Island. Since then, he’s earned ten X Games medals (four of them gold) and made history in 2006 when he landed the first-ever double flair in X Games Vert Best Trick. He remains the only rider to have landed the trick in competition.

Now 41, Robinson has made the decision to walk away from X Games competition, leaving a legacy of memorable performances and defining moments. In the video above, KRob looks back at some of those moments, and explains why now is the right time to retire.

Given his love for BMX, we’re sure this won’t be the last we hear from him. Thanks for the memories Kevin, and here’s to many more…” – Red Bull

Sam Buros – Solo Vault Sessions

August 5, 2013

Sam Buros pulled out some old clips he was sitting on from a few solo sessions at the old Vault Park. I’m not sure why it took him this long to get this one together, but I’m just glad he didn’t let the clips go to waste!

“Way back when the Vault existed i was lucky enough to be able to ride it whenever and a lot of days i would just ride it by myself. A few times i would bring out the camera, set it up on a tripod and film random things for fun. I have been sitting on this footage for a very long time and considered using some clips for other projects, but got tired of holding onto it. I thought it would be fun to put together this short edit of myself that i filmed and edited on these solo sessions. Enjoy!

Lucky 7’s with Bertie Buck

August 5, 2013

Ride UK caught up with Bertie Buck at his local park to catch a few of his favorite tricks. It’s a pretty basic setup for a park, but Bertie has some good ones for it.

“Bertie Buck got his local park to himself this weekend, so Johnny went over there and grabbed a lucky 7′s with him. Bertie isn’t shy when it comes to good honest flat bank sessions, here he pulls a couple of buties out of the bag.” –

Antipodes – Shooting à Nimbin – Behind the Scenes

August 5, 2013

Here’s a behind the scenes look at how they shot a little 3-way action during the Ride Sessions Antipod trip. Definitely always pretty cool to see how things went down to create a single photo.

“Antipodes, the extraordinary adventure of Maxime Charveron, Matthias Dandois and Sam Partaix in Australia ! Each step of this road trip was the opportunity to meet people, riding and laughing …
Antipodes, it is also an opportunity to show you “behind the scenes” of the adventure with a crazy picture with three riders in Nimbin’ bowl. #teamsosh
