Wethepeople – 9 Year Old Sousuke Hayata Shreds His 16″ Bike

November 18, 2020

Wethepeople coming through with more footage from their 9-year old shredder over in Japan, Sousuke Hayata, for your viewing pleasure! This time around we get just about 2 minutes of footage featuring Sousuke going to work at his local park and a little street. This kid has some serious style already, and it’s wild how much pop he already has, along with the bike control. There’s a few combos in here like the cab crankflips that you just aren’t seeing kids his age do. It’s pretty amazing to see what these smaller 16″ bikes are doing to get kids into BMX at an earlier age and allowing them to actually progress at a super fast rate. We can’t even begin to imagine what this kid will be capable of in just a few years.

“9-year-old Japanese BMX prodigy Sousuke Hayata shreds our new 2021 seed 16″ complete bike.

Designed to make those first years in the sport as fun as they can possibly be, the Seed is a scaled-down mini machine which has been lightened to make it as easy as possible for a younger rider to reach their goals. Packed full of the latest components from SALT like the Junior 40mm reach stem, and Tracer tires and two fantastic colour schemes to round off what is without a doubt the best 16” complete bike we’ve ever produced.

The Source Park – BMX Documentary: Episode 1

November 18, 2020

Source BMX have begun releasing the documentary that was released a little while back about their location in Hastings, England that has an incredible backstory. The undertaking of converting an abandoned building that once acted as a swimming pool and ice rink, and even a skatepark at one point, then sat empty for years.

Episode one has the backstory of the building, along with a look at the initial starting of what has become Source BMX’s base of operations and one of the best indoor parks around the world, along with the backstory on the owners, Marc and Richard Moore.

This is a super interesting watch, so hit play and take it all in! Keep an eye out for episode 2 that we imagine will be online sooner than later.

“The Source Park / BMX / Documentary / Episode 1

Over the course of two years, this story follows two brothers, Marc and Richard Moore during a huge restoration project based in the East Sussex coastal town of Hastings. Their idea was simple, to build the world’s largest underground skate park underneath the promenade of Hastings seafront inside a space that dates back to the 1800’s and has laid derelict for the past eighteen years.

Scotty Cranmer – 100 Mile Challenge

November 16, 2020

The milestones continue for Scotty Cranmer! Over the past four years Scotty has been putting in a TON of work getting his life back after his accident, and we’ve seen a ton of amazing progress. Today, he released this video of him riding 100 mile on his BMX bike. We can count on a single hand the number of people we’ve heard of that have rode 100 miles on a BMX bike in a single day. Honestly, it would be hard for anyone to do this, and he was able to knock it out over the course of a day! This is amazing. Hell yeah, Scotty!

“I challenged myself with the my toughest test since my accident. I decided to try to ride my BMX bike 100 miles in a day! I have never attempted this and I am not sure of anyone else that has ever tried this before but I am going to prove to myself and the world that just because I’m a quadriplegic that doesn’t mean that my life is over!” – Scotty Cranmer
