Introducing Jeremy Pavia
Some of you who have been paying attention to The Union for a while now may have caught on to some of my subtle hints of some changes coming to the site. 2011 was a great year and I wanted to start 2012 off proper with some changes that I think will feature all of the new original content better.
We launched the new photogallery last week and there will be a few new additions to the site in the next week or two additional to the gallery that I think you will like.
I’m also stoked to announce the first of two new contributors to The Union. After Jeremy Pavia spent a number of years at BMX Plus!, he recently decided to part ways to pursue some of his personal goals. Some how, I managed to convince him to spend some of his newly acquired free time contributing here! Expect a weekly section from him starting tomorrow!
We have a fresh interview with Jeremy to introduce you to him and to find out what he plans on bringing to the site after the jump. After you check that out, check out some of his photo work in this brand new PHOTOGALLERY! Check it!

Red Bull – Roast It – Highlights
Oh hell yes. This is what I’ve been waiting for!
“Catch some BMX dirt park action from Red Bull Roast It 2012, where some of the world’s best riders rocked the Gorge Road dirt park in Queenstown, New Zealand, which has one of the biggest collections of dirt jumps on the planet. In the end it was Paul Langland, who was crowned Best Rider whereas George Bolter and Brandon Dosch were tied for riding the Best Line and Jed Mildon nailed the Best Trick…” – Red Bull
TBR – The Matt’s Sunday Sessions
Matt Coplon and Matt Arnold are back at it with a fresh new edit from Tampa Bay. Good spots, good riding and good times. This is sweet!
“Filmed mostly on Sundays, here is a collection of clips on some new and some not so new spots in Tampa. A visiting creative eye, some construction, or something getting temporarily moved out of the way in the urban jungle can make for an new, interesting spot. Nothing ground breaking, just the celebration of new jibs found in the shadows of Tampa Bay. Enjoy.

Ivan Nikolaev on Division Brand
Division Brand has picked up a new rider from Russia through their distributor there, Raen Shop. Check out a few words from them about Ivan Nikolaev.
“We would like to formally welcome Ivan Nikolaev to our team. Ivan will be our Russian team rider & has started work on filming for his welcome edit now. Once the snow clears up that is. We are also working on re-vamping the whole crew page on the site here & this will include a bio for Ivan. Check back soon.
Ivan is a really well known rider in Russia & in fact was voted best street rider in Russia for 2010 by his fellow riders. Quite an achievement. He recently got the cover of an online magazine called Pro BMX as well. Ivan also scored his first advert for Division Brand in the same magazine as seen below. To get an idea of Ivan’s riding check out this video for Carhartt from 2010.
Welcome to the team mate, it’s good to have you aboard !!” – Division Brand
