Profile Racing – Kent Pearson “Complicate”
Oh yeah! We always get stoked when Kent Pearson‘s name pops up on a new video! Here’s his latest for Profile Racing giving us a look at what he’s been getting into during his sessions down in Georgia with his son Mason. As always, Kent delivers with amazing technical lip tricks and combos out in the streets thanks to the front and back brakes, making for a ton of creative and unique riding. Hit play because this is a real good watch!
“It’s common to hear the advice to take the time to enjoy the simple things. That’s fine, but I believe you should also take the time to enjoy the the complex things. For instance, the process of pulling a move at a spot… then turning that move into the next move… then progressing it to down-right complicated. As we filmed most of these clips, I found myself explaining what I was going to attempt and saying how I just wanted to ‘complicate’ whatever I was working on as we filmed. I love the process. I love BMX for allowing me to complicate. Thanks to Profile Racing. Thanks to Dig BMX. Thanks to BMX” – Kent Pearson @kentpearsonbmx

Nowear Flat – Online Contest
The crew over at Nowear have announced an online flatland video contest that will be used as a qualifier for their 2021 Cornhuckit Jam that’s going down in September at the Nowear Compound! Riders will want to submit a 43 second raw cut with the chance of winning $1,000 and a trip to the jam in September for 1st place, and the 2nd and 3rd place riders also get a paid trip to the jam as well. It looks like this is open to everyone, but probably more ideal for riders in the u.S since flights will only be covered from a U.S airport. Either way, it looks like it should be pretty awesome. Get on it!
BMX Handlebar Tubing Explained
Thinking about picking up a new pair of BMX bars for your bike, but you aren’t sure what all the things like butting, heat-treating, weight and everything really means? Well, Brant Moore has put together a video giving an in-depth explanation of BMX handlebar tubing. This video compares a few sets of bars that look similar, but are in fact very different. This covers the tubing aspect, but you are curious about geometry, then we suggest you check out our BMX Handlebar Geometry Guide that will help you figure out rise, width, backsweep, upsweep and more. You can also check out our BMX Tubing Terminology post that covers more of the tubing details for things like frames and forks as well!
“Everything you need to know about BMX handlebar tubing!
From butted tubing, to crossbar differences, to heat treating, and other aspects of handlebar tubing; there is a lot to learn or be aware of when purchasing a set of bars for your BMX bike!” – Brant Moore
