About this time of year, sponsor news starts to fly. Pro riders contracts expire and before you know it they make some moves to a new team. It would appear that Chase Hawk has parted ways with his long time sponsor Vans for a new opportunity with Etnies. Definitely a crazy bit of news to be posting. I’m sure we’ll be seeing a welcome edit and Chase popping up in plenty of videos this year. Get stoked.
Spotted on the Etnies BMX Instagram.
UPDATE! – Here’s the official Press Release.
“Jan. 2, 2013 (Lake Forest, CA) – etnies is ringing in the new year by signing Chase Hawk, one of BMX’s most progressive riders, to its team. With his speed, smooth style and unrivaled ability to boost incredibly high, Chase Hawk is the rider to watch in 2013. Welcome to the etnies BMX team, Chase!”
“Joining the etnies BMX family means a lot to me,” said Chase Hawk. “I’ve been psyched on the team ever since I was a little kid so to finally get the opportunity to work with everyone is going to be awesome. I plan on 2013 being a busy year with etnies producing a ‘welcome to the team’ edit, new product and starting to film for the next full-length etnies video. Thanks again to [team manager] Povah and etnies for giving me the chance to be a part of the team” – Chase Hawk
John Povah, etnies BMX Team Manager said: “From a very young age Chase Hawk’s evident talents have set the bar high for creating milestones in BMX. He’s arguably a rider, if not the rider, that other riders wish to emulate and will routinely stop what they’re doing to watch ride. Chase now starts a new chapter in his life as part of the etnies BMX team. It’s overdue, so I’m really stoked that Chase wanted to ride for etnies. He brings a considerable amount to the table and can now be part of something special that he can truly feel proud of. I also think having Chase as part of the team will excite, energize and build on an already amazing team and brand. Welcome to the family Chase!”

“To kick off the new year right we decided drop some heat on ya from damn near the entire team! Back in November we loaded the van to the brim, stuffed our belongings in the U-Haul and headed North in search of some of of the best spots in California. Stops include Santa Barbara, Santa Maria, Nipomo, San Luis Obispo, Fresno, San Jose, and San Fransisco…as well as some home turf gems in the mix. With the exception of SF, you could say we weren’t exactly staying on the beatin’ path…and that’s exactly how we like it. I’m really excited about how this came together, so grab a cup of your best hangover remedy, kick that now lesser attractive girl out of your bed, and go ride your bike. Happy 2013 Everyone!

I’m not sure how many edits we posted featuring Anton Arnarson in 2012, but there were a ton. I’d be willing to bet he was one of the biggest producers in 2012 actually. Here’s an edit he put together featuring clips that he didn’t use in all of those edits from the past year that are actually really good! I can’t figure out how this dude films so much, but he’s definitely on it. Enjoy!
“I went through thousands of files on my HDD and made this edit out of the unused footy I found.
Happy new year.”
