I met Tony pretty breifly a year or two ago pre-baco being banned from Wisconsin. Hes a really legit dude. With recently being removed from the Sputnic team myself and Brett Rohlfing got some questions together for him and this is how it went.

Anthony Malouf

Years riding:

To start off with what everyone wants to know. What happened with you and Sputnic? Did you leave, get dropped or what? I heard rumors you pee’d on somebody on the team?
I was dropped. I don’t really know the real reason. Personal differences I guess. The Piss rumors are true. I pissed on Ricky Bates in the middle of the night. I was blacked out drunk and don’t even remember doing it. In the morning I didn’t beleive Ricky when he told me, but he convinced me. He wasn’t too upset though. I had to wash some blankets and Johnny’s Matress. I don’t think that had anything to do with me getting the boot.

Do you have any new sponsors in the works or what are you looking to do now?
Nothing at the moment. Im hoping something will pop up, but I’m not gonna let it get me down if nothing ever comes up.

It seems like you have been putting out a new web video out every week, what do you have planned filming wise? More edits or do you have a video part in the works?
I don’t really know. When ever I film a bunch of stuff all in a day or two. I try to get it out quick so it doesn’t get old.

You have been traveling a lot lately, where have you been the last few months and what do you have planned trip wise?
I been in Cali, Ohio, Georgia, Iowa, Wisconsin. The next move is Tulsa, OK.

You have a lot of style with your riding, did you grow up racing and riding trails or how did you learn to throw down the way you do?
No, I never raced. I started riding park but I never rode pegs untill a year ago or so. I just liked jumping, so thats all I did.

It seems like you got a lot of tricks on lock, what are some that have been giving you the most trouble lately?
Barspins are trouble. I can do them in 180’s and 3’s like nothing but straight ones are scary.

Living close to Chicago and Millwaukee you have some really solid crews of guys to ride with, do you feel like that has impacted your riding at all? I know a lot of guys from that area like Jeff K got sponsor deals around the same time as you.
Yeah definately. Taking little trips up north to Milwaukee is what got me real siked on traveling and riding. Jeff K was like the first dude I met who made videos so it was fun to film and stuff. Jeff K is king of blacking out and making anything his toilet. Sorry Jeff.

What are your plans for the summer, just being a chiller or do you plan on hitting up some contests?
I really want to travel a bunch more and film for a little video Miles Rogoish and I are working on. Money is an issue right now. Other wise we would be somewhere right now filming with dudes.

Where are some places you haven’t had the chance to ride that you would really like to ride someday?
I haven’t been out of the Country yet. Other than Canada. So that would be fun. I want to make it to PA this summer to ride some trails.

Who are some pros you have looked up to over the years?
Kevin Porter, Oliver Leonerd, Shawn Arata, Chris Doyle.

Have you ever had a weird situation where you show up hundreds of miles away from home and have somebody recognize you?
Yeah…

What do you think you would be up to if you never got into BMX?
I would probably be in College playing a sport of some sort.

If you could change anything about BMX, what would you change and why?
Nothing really. It’s all good to me.

Outside of riding bikes, what are some things you are into?
Filming, digging, skateboarding, partying, poofin

Did you ever go to college or do you ever plan to?
No, no.

You are a big fan of biggy and tupac it would seem, is that all you listen to or what kinds of music are you into?
Pretty much into anything. I love classic rock and blues. Only thing I’m not really down with is country and techno.

What are some movies you are a fan of?
Too many to list. I love movies.

Who or what are some of your biggest influences on your life?
My old man, www.midwestbmx.net , Hunter S Thomson, Dook Wallace, Walter Peringer.

What are some things you would like to accomplish in the next few years?
Find a good filming job. Finish this video with Miles. Probably start on another one.

If you could spend the day with anybody, alive or dead, who would it be and why?
Christopher Walken, he is the ultimate G.

Do you have any good stories about run ins with the cops, security, midgets, stripper combos, or anything else you can tell us about?
I got plenty of good ones. Last good one was in Iowa after the ExtravaJamza at the Davenport park. We got really drunk, we got in a fight, the cops came. Really fun night.

What would you do with the cash if you won the lottery?
I would buy and entire block and invite all my buddies from all over to come live in a house for a year. It would be a non-stop block party. Ramps going from yard to yard. crazy shit. That could be a reality show.

If you could change anything about the world what would it be and why?
I don’t know.

What kind of advice do you have for people just getting into BMX?
Ride tranny. Learn to controll your bike before you start trying tricks.

Do you have any shout outs or thanks?
Thanks to My family, all my friends , UGP, Chad Degroot, Primo, Nate Moroshan, Grange Waldo, Dook Wallace, B-rad, Pascal, Juice, Shmall Gary, Miles Wasssup?

Anything else you would like to say?
Look for more PLUSH Productions on the web. Peace.

Cody probably has in my eyes one of the best jobs in the world. He gets to write about bmx, take photos, travel, and all sorts of other things revolving around BMX as his job. I am really stoked on this interview for a lot of reasons. I am stoked mostly just because it was like a career day reading this for me, but maybe it’s just me?

You’re the editor for EXPN’s BMX side of things, how long have you been doing that and how did you end up getting the job?
I’ve been doing it for about 6 months now and it’s been awesome. In the last couple years, I have been shooting a lot of freelance BMX photos for ads and magazines and then one summer day I got a call from Mary Fenton at EXPN asking me to shoot X Games for them. It was pretty random, but obviously I was stoked; a week later, I was shooting X Games and having a blast. After that, EXPN noticed I used to work at BMX Plus! Magazine and that I had a lot of ties in the industry, so they asked if I would be interested in doing some news feeds for them which consisted of pitching story (for lack of better word) ideas, shooting/contributing photos, and of course backing up those ideas with interesting and as well as factual content. A short while later, they came up with the idea of having bloggers for each extreme sport that EXPN covers on the site. I was then offered to do the BMX side of things and that’s where I’m at today.

What are some of the different things you get to do for work?
I get to travel a lot, go on amazing roadtrips, hangout and ride with some of the best BMXers in the world, shoot photos of them and basically write and share my experiences with all of you via online and through publications. But that’s not all entirely through EXPN, a lot of that is on my own account when freelancing for magazines. EXPN gives me a budget to collect content for my blog (to pay for video and photo content). I don’t do too much traveling on their expense. Although, EXPN sends me to X Games each year and that is always amazing! I generally collect all the content for my blog through emails, phone calls or being on the road.

Did you go to school at all to get the job?
Well, Yes and No. While it hasn’t mattered for any BMX gigs that I’ve had, including working as the assistant editor at BMX Plus! Magazine. I did go to college for photography and received an AA degree. But in reality, going to school did little more than get me a degree to back myself up if ever necessary. What really landed me my jobs has been my passion for photography and the sport of BMX mixed in with a little bit of luck, or maybe a lot of luck. I learned most of my photography skills on my own, trial and error, ect.

Have you had the chance to do much traveling for them? and do you have any trips planned for 08′ so far?
As far as stuff for EXPN goes, I’ll be heading up to New York next week for Kevin Robinson’s record-breaking attempt for highest air, which should be out of hand. I’ll actually be doing commentary and interviewing Kevin for video content on our site and my blog. I’ll also be out in California for X Games in August and randomly traveling around the US shooting photos to contribute to Ride, Ride UK and BMX Plus! Mags throughout the summer. Just recently, I went on the Local Exposure Tour 5 for a Ride UK story and that was one of the coolest trips I’ve been on. I got to hang out with Micah Kranz, which is always a blast and we talked a lot about how awesome the Milwaukee scene is lately, so I’m planning on getting up there really soon too.

You do some filming and photography for the site what are your camera set ups, editing programs, computer set-up. All the things you need to do what you do?
Well, I don’t do any of filming actually; wish I could take the credit and was that talented (ha-ha). No, I have a great group of videographers that produce the exclusive high-quality content for me; they are located all over the US. They are, Larry Alvarado, Chris Mahaffey, Brock Gomez and Kyle Huber. Without them there wouldn’t be exclusive quality video on my blog, big thanks to those guys for making things happen!

Ian Schwartz- This photo was used for a Micreation Ad when Ian was still on MI. I just love this photo because it’s totally is Ian going fast and having fun and it was a good time shooting it.

With work and traveling, how much time do you find to ride?
Not much at all to be honest. Part of the reason is time, but a bigger part is that I haven’t had health insurance for about a year so that has slowed things down quite a bit, but once I take care of that I’ll start riding harder.

Where are some of your favorite spots to ride?
Cincinnati, OH for sure. I love that place, it’s only about 3-4 hr. drive south from Cleveland and it’s got one of the best scenes in my opinion. Tony Neyer holds it down and always makes my visits worthwhile. It’s just super fun to ride down there cause the scene is big, lots of great riders and spots that make for a good time. Some other places I’ve been to that I also like riding are, Baton Rouge, Orlando and with the Santa Barbara scene, all are places that have cool spots and awesome riders to ride with.

Where is one spot you have seen in photos/videos you really want to go to sometime?
Thankfully I’ve been to most spots I’ve always wanted to see or shoot at. Some spots I love and/or would recommend are, the ghetto banks in Alabama, the dam in LA, the range peel in Florida, huge trannie walls in Baton Rouge; those are all spots that were awesome to see. I always wanted to shoot a photo of Tony Neyer on this cement vert pipe ditch thing in Cincy, but he ended up shooting it with Z when he came to town. Thanks Tony, haha!

Chris Brown- This shot I took while working at Plus! It never ran and not sure why, the spot the infamous Willshire rails in LA and this is pretty nuts. Chris didn’t grind all the way of the end, but still crazy!

What is the scene like where you ride?
The scene here in Cleveland isn’t what it used to be but it’s steadily coming back alive. There are now a few sets of amazing trails that exist that are getting better and better each year. Hightower Trails (which might be getting plowed) have been around the longest and they’re amazing, the good thing is that all the locals at any of these trails, or anywhere in Ohio for that matter, are all really nice. You also have Chenga 2, Chenga 57 and Ray’s MTB Park for indoor ramps here, so no complaints on that end. Everybody loves Ray’s lately; it’s an interesting place!

Who was the first pro you met and is there a cool story behind it at all?
Gosh that’s hard to pinpoint exactly who it was, Aaron Bostrom, Billy Delfs or Nate Wessel I think. Bostrom and Delfs used to run these trails near where I grew up called Greenies, I used to go there to watch but I never rode. I was too timid, I just remember being star-struck when I met any pro at that time. Little did I imagine I would shoot photographs with these guys and still be friends with them to this day, so that’s awesome!

How do you feel about BMX now days with all the shit talking, contests on TV, awesome DVDs, etc?
It is what it is, take it or leave it. It’s so awesome how BMX has progressed and I hope to see the industry only get bigger, so more people can continue to make a living off it and do what they love to do.

If you could change anything about BMX, what would you change and why?
The only thing I would like to see is more positivists and less negativity in BMX.

Do you have any good stories involving the cops, security, hookers, midgets, or famous people you can defame?
Does Catfish count as a midget? No, I have way too many stories from Youngstown, OH. When Section 8 Skatepark was around I used to go down there often to hangout, ride, and shoot pics. I would always end up in the mix with 4th Grade, Catfish, Lou Bickle and those guys and I have seen everything under the sun. One time at a Section 8 contest everyone went out to the bar in downtown Youngstown where 4th Grade was working at the time and as the night ended a bunch of BMXer’s got into a fight with some gangsters and they started shooting guns off and everyone scrambled outside the bar to grab cover. Everyone thought someone got shot and it was just nuts. That’s just a tip of the iceberg of stories from Youngstown–just ask Catfish, that’s how and why he started catfishcatfish.com.

Aaron Bostrom- Obviously this is nothing crazy but just a cool shot with awesome colors and Aaron’s one of my favorite riders.

Outside of work and BMX as a whole, what are some things you are into?
The drums, I recently purchased a drum set about 3 months ago and have been having the time of my life with it. It’s the last thing I could see myself doing, which makes it so fun and challenging.

What bands are you into? Any you suggest people to check out?
The list is endless but Modest Mouse is definitely my favorite band. If you like them you definitely need to check out, Cloud Cult. Bob Dylan is up there on my list too- different era, different sound, but his messages in his music transcends all time.

Seen any good riding videos or movies lately?
The latest thing I’ve watched has been Brad Simms Micreation video spot and I’m really psyched on how it turned out and the whole concept of it.

What are some things you would like to accomplish in the next few years?
I would just like to be thankful for everyday, not take things for granted. Continue contributing my photos to magazines and blogging for EXPN, and hopefully be inspiring to kids through my words and photos, and motivating them to ride bikes or what ever it is they aspire to do because they see it as being fun. Life should be fun!

What do you think you would be doing if you never got involved with bikes?
I would be a photographer, the content would be different of course, but for me, I couldn’t imagine doing some job day after day that I didn’t have a true passion for, bills or not!

How much time do you spend on the computer in a week and what are some websites you are into?
I would say around 30-40 hrs. a week on the computer between work and pleasure, which is ridiculous! Some sites I’m into are Defgrip a whole bunch of photo sites and EXPN of course.

What would you do with the cash if you won the lottery?
Well, first I would have to play the lottery to win. But if I did, I would give it away to friends, family and people I knew that needed it the most.

Kip Williamson- This shot of Kip was taken in Florida and never ran in anything but is still an awesome photo. Kip’s a cool dude and was super fun to hangout with. I like shooting flat and love the positive attitude all flatlanders have.

What is the best advice or quote you have ever heard?
“Dream as though you’ll live forever, live as though you’ll die today.” –James Dean.

What kind of advice do you have for people who want to get into writing/blogging/ photography/ web stuff?
Make sure your extremely passionate and love what it is you want to do. Never quit, be patient and always have other projects and things in the works to fall back on or to clear your mind if you get into a rut or things don’t work out.

Anybody you would like to give a shout out or thanks to?
I would like to say thanks to anyone that’s helped me out, supported me along my journey and allowed me to continue doing what I love, my family, my Dad, Beth, my girlfriend Johanna, EXPN, Johnny Devlin, Dave Jacobs, Aaron Bostrom, Larry Alvarado, Raul Ruiz, Chris Mahaffey, Darren Hendrix, Brock Gomez, Jeff Z, Chad Shackelford, The Leftovers, Justin Simpson, Tony Neyer, Ride UK, Ride US, BMX Plus!, Shine, BMX Union for this interview, and anyone I may have forgotten, the list goes on and on…thanks!

Anything else you would like to add?
Check out my blog on EXPN.com and don’t be afraid to email me and say hello, that or leave some really funny comments!

If you have found this site, then I am willing to bet you have seen at least one of Will’s videos he has filmed or edited. Why? Because his videos are some of the most popular videos out there with the weekly videos for Levi’s or the dvd’s he has made. Will is very talented at what he does and there was a need for an interview. After your done be sure to check out Nine To Five Films

When you first got into BMX were you into filming and editing or did that come after?
For the first few years I just rode. Then one day I just randomly picked up my grandma’s old clunker VHS-C camera and brought it to the 401 trails where we rode everyday. I had no clue what I was doing but I would just film all my friends when I was hurt or not riding. Eventually, Doyle got on DK and needed footage for the first DK video “Damn Kids”. So Chris asked me if I could help film for his part. It’s so funny now to watch footage from back in those “good old days”.

Growing up in Ohio I imagine you were riding with Catfish and them at Section 8 or were you in with another crowd?
I actually grew up in Raleigh, NC. I did live in Dayton, OH for a year but my roots are in NC.

Now that your living in North Carolina where are you more commonly riding?
It’s kind of sad to say but I rarely ride when I’m at home. This year I have been traveling like crazy filming with the Levi’s team for the team DVD and the weekly web videos. So I’ve actually ridden more while on trips as of lately. I don’t really push myself to learn new tricks though. I just enjoy nibbling around more than anything.

When you first started riding BMX did you ever you would be making a living off working in the industry?
No way. I had no idea that I would ever have all of these opportunities. It’s pretty sweet to have my dream job!

Being a very busy dude with Levi’s and other video projects, do you find much time to ride?
Like I said before, not really when I’m at home. The closest skatepark to my house is over 100 miles away so it’s not very convenient and I’m not much of a street guy. There’s talk of a public concrete park being built in Greensboro, but I’m not holding my breath.

If you could go on a road trip just to ride, no cameras, what 5 people would you bring, where would you go, and why?
That’s a good question. I would do a trip in an RV and drive all around Germany or Spain with my brother, Chris Doyle, Ryan Barrett, Cory Muth, Steve Buddendeck, and Biz. I know that’s bringing 6 people but that would probably be my dream trip.

You have had the opportunity to travel a lot because of your career, where are some of your favorite places you have been?
Barcelona, Vancouver, New Zealand, Shanghai, and the Philippines.

Where are some places you would really like to go?
Africa, Eastern Europe, Australia, Russia, South America, Thailand, Vietnam, the list could go on forever.

What is one trick you could never get sick of doing?
360s, backflips, or turndowns

What is one trick you get sick of trying to figure out?
Barspins and tailwhips

How do you feel about the current state of BMX, being in the olympics, nearly being removed from the X-Games, kids talking shit on the internet, videos being ripped, just everything in general?
I try not to take BMX too serious. I am happy that I have my place in the industry and I try my best to stay on good terms with everyone. It seems like BMX is changing a lot over the recent years due to the internet. It’s a good thing overall how accessible a mass amount of fresh content is on a daily basis. Of course the bad side would be video piracy and shit talking. I try not to get too involved with the internet though. I do hate the fact that it’s so much harder for BMX companies to justify doing team videos anymore. It costs so much money and it’s way easier just to put out mediocre web videos, but I really like holding a DVD’s packaging and watching videos on a real TV with good sound. I’ll choose quality over quantity any day of the week when it comes to videos. But in general, I think BMX is growing and hopefully the industry will continue to get stronger and allow most brands to stay in business.

If you could change anything about BMX what would you change and why?
Like I said before, I try not to take BMX too serious. I guess it is what it is and I wouldn’t change anything.

Obviously you and Chad Shackelford are the guys behind 9 to 5 films, what are some current projects you guys have going on?
Actually, Chad and I have parted ways and he’s starting his own venture called The Anamorphosis Laboratory. I have continued to run Nine To Five as an individual. We are on good terms but we just decided to do our own things. Chad is still producing Shook and the new Sunday video. I am working on the Levi’s DVD which will premiere at this year’s NORA Cup in Vegas. I am also in charge of producing the Levi’s weekly web video series for Levi.com/BMX and Vitalbmx.com.

How is the Levi’s DVD coming along, I imagine it is hard since you have to take a lot of clips to make the weekly videos for vital and other places?
I am really happy with how the Levi’s DVD is coming along. We found out in January that we had 8 months to film a full length team video to premiere at NORA cup and we have been filming like crazy ever since. I have been working on filming for this DVD full time this year and it’s coming along nicely, but I wish we could have a few more months so we could squeeze some more trips in. But the great thing about the Levi’s DVD is that it will be 100% free! I’m so happy that they decided to make this a free promo and it’s going to be a legit full length team video. My biggest challenge is that I am responsible for producing 40 weekly web videos for Levi’s alongside of the DVD. So I have to be really careful about what clips I use for web and what clips I’m saving for the DVD. The DVD will be 95% exclusive footage that hasn’t been seen on the web and the riding is top notch. The purpose of the weekly web videos is just to have fresh content constantly, but I have been saving the bangers for the DVD. We have a joke going on while on trips after we film a clip – we ask each other if the clip is “theatrical” or “non-theatrical”? Theatrical meaning it would be good enough to save for the DVD or non-theatrical would be a web clip. I have to give Dakota credit for that one!

What are some trips you have been on this year for filming so far?
So far we have done filming in China, Spain, Hawaii, SoCal, NorCal, Vegas, Texas, Woodward, Alabama, Tennessee, the Carolinas, Portland, and Phoenix.

How do you usually go about picking songs for videos, do you have a certain type you look for?
I usually start off by making iTunes playlists of music that I’m into at the time. I think it’s really important to match the soundtrack to the direction of the video. It’s crazy how important a soundtrack is for a video. Usually I spend a few months searching for the right songs that work best in whatever project I’m working on.

Did you go to school at all for filming and editing?
Yes, I went to the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and graduated in 2003 with a BA in Film and Video Production.

Who are your favorite people to film with?
There are so many but I really enjoy filming with Chris Doyle, Ryan Barrett, Corey Martinez, Morgan Wade, Jamie Bestwick, Dave Mirra, Dakota Roche, Nathan Williams, Jeremiah Smith, Jim C., Aaron Ross, Gary Young, Taj, Biz, Josh Harrington, Ryan Nyquist, Corey Bohan, Jim Bauer…..the list goes on…. I mostly just enjoy filming with people that are fun to be around and have a positive attitude in general.

Out of all of the videos you have made, what are some of your favorites?
My favorite video that I’ve done so far would probably be the SYSTEM video and Stock.

Outside of riding and filming what are you up to?
Outside of BMX I’m just enjoying life here in NC with my wife, family, and friends.

I had heard you and your wife were expecting?
Yes, we are excited to become parents this year! We are having a boy and he should be here sometime around August 16th. I am really excited about becoming a father this year. I know I have a lot to learn about being a parent but it will be an adventure…..

What are some things you would like to accomplish in the next few years?
To be a good father and husband and to continue working in BMX or whatever else makes me happy.

If you could spend the day with anybody, alive, dead, fictitious, who would it be and why?
I’d love to spend a day with “Dude” from The Big Lebowski.

What would you do with the cash if you won the lottery?
I would love to take an insane trip with my closest friends and live it up for a while. But I would want to save most of it and try to make some smart investments.

What kinds of music are you into? Any you would suggest?
I like a really wide spectrum of music. I spend a lot of time on the iTunes store surfing around and finding new music that I’m into. Lately I’ve been listening to a lot of British rock stuff.

What is some of the best advice you have ever been given?
I don’t remember any specific words of advice but my parents always encouraged me throughout childhood that I could do whatever I wanted to do in life if I put my mind to it. They were very supportive of me and my brother getting into BMX and I wouldn’t be where I’m at today without their support.

What kinds of advice do you have for kids just getting into BMX?
Just be yourself and have fun with BMX.

What about advice for people getting into filming and editing?
Learn from your mistakes, ask questions, work hard, and keep shooting.

Do you have any shout outs or thanks?
My wife Cristi and my son to be, my parents & grandparents, David Stroud, Kathy McGrath at Bird Marketing, Megan & Marisa at Levi’s, Cory Muth, Steve Buddendeck, Chris Doyle, Ryan Barrett, Chad Shackelford, Dave Jacobs, Justin Kosman, Dave Mavro, Ilana Taub at Red Bull, Kyle Carlson, Jim & Nuno at Odyssey, Mark Losey, The Mangler, Jamie Bestwick, Corey Martinez, Morgan Wade, Nathan Williams, Dakota Roche, Brett Walker, Biz, Heath Pinter, Jeremiah Smith, Ronnie B., and everyone else that’s ever helped me out in any way. Sorry to anyone I forgot!

Anything else you would like to say?
Keep it real.
