October 30, 2021

The 2021 Swampfest is going off down in Florida this weekend and, as expected, it’s absolute chaos before it even officially kicked off. Here’s a look at everything that went down on Friday as people started rolling in for a weekend of insanity.

“The rain kept hitting, but as you’ll see, Swampfest must continue. Here’s some quick highlights as we role into the main event. We’ll have a recap of the event and then, hopefully, a full event recap sometime afterward…. Again, thanks to Trey Jones and the crew for making this happen. ” – Our BMX

Corey Walsh Bumped Up To The Vans Global Pro Team

October 29, 2021

Here’s some news for you! Vans have given Corey Walsh the very well deserved bump on up to the Global Pro BMX team. Above is a short but sweet video to bring the news. We’re sure we’ll be seeing plenty of Corey in the future. Hopefully this means he’ll be getting some signature shoes like Courage Adams did when he got the bump up a few weeks back!

“Vans is proud to welcome Corey Walsh to the Global BMX Family. Corey’s think-outside-the-box approach has captured the attention of the BMX community the world over. His riding is unmatched in the pool and bowl game, earning him two Transition of the Year awards, voted on by his peers. A part of the Vans Canada team since 2015, he’s made a name for himself stacking Fast & Loose and Cult clips, and recently speaking out on behalf of the LGBTQ+ community.

Nowear BMX – Dave Mahoney Returns

October 29, 2021

Now this is awesome. After a 4 year hiatus (we’re not sure why), Dave Mahoney is back! You would think after that much time off the bike it would take a while to figure things out, but it looks like muscle memory kicked in and he had no trouble absolutely crushing it for his first session back! We have no idea how he was able to do all these tricks like he’s been riding the whole time, but that was amazing.

“Dave Mahoney shreds a local park in Frederick Colorado.
This was filmed in one afternoon and was Dave’s first time stepping foot on a BMX bike in 4 years.

I think we can all agree we’d love to see much more of this.
Don’t worry… Nowear has something special in the works with Mr. Mahoney.
Stay Tuned” – Nowear
