“Introducing Dead Leisure with this “Conjure Thee” video featuring Callan Stibbards & Jake Corless.
The title, not only inspired by the lyrics from the music, but more importantly describes the creation and debut of Dead Leisure with this inaugural video. Since Dead Leisure’s inception roughly 2 years ago (September 2019), Callan and Jake where hyped to be onboard and being fans and friends with them it was a no brainer. Fast forward to April this year (2021), Callan and Jake hit me up with this edit, without prior arrangement or knowledge I was beyond hyped with these dudes work ethic and aesthetic towards BMX. Filmed intermittently over the past few years in and around Perth WA Australia.” – Alex Liiv

Perris Benegas Comes Out
When Corey Walsh made the decision to come out back in March, one of the key things he said was that he hoped it gave people who were struggling with the fear of coming out as well the confidence to do it. It looks like that may have helped his Vans teammate Perris Benegas since she made the announcement yesterday on Instagram that she is also gay. Above is her post she made to let everyone know. As expected, it was met with a ton of support and we would imagine this is a huge weight off her shoulders! Stoked for you, Perris!
