Kieran Reilly On Red Bull

December 5, 2020

Here’s some news I thought I posted the other day, but a bunch of you probably heard by now that Kieran Reilly has been added to the Red Bull U.K team! Up top is a video Bas Keep put together showing how he surprised Kieran with the news, along with some footage showing his incredible progress over the years. You can also check out Kieran’s video he uploaded on his channel down below with some footage from the session after he got the news. We can imagine that was an amazing day for everyone involved. Check it out, and expect to see plenty more of Kieran in the near future!

“His childhood dream since 10 years old was to be sponsored by Red Bull! We surprised him with the news! EMOTIONAL!
I am beyond proud of how far this kid has come and how hard he has worked to get here! Love you mate!
Featuring Kieran Reilly Sebastian Keep and matt Harris” – Bas Keep

Fit Bike Co. – F-LOG: IT’S CHILE IN THESE STREETS

December 4, 2020

Fit Bike Co. coming through with a new F-LOG for you to check out. This was a raw cut from some sessions that Ben Silver got in with their newest recruit down in Chile, Damian Cespedes. This looks like all the b-roll for Damian’s welcome video we would imagine will be popping up sooner than later. Either way, there’s some gems in this. Take a look!

“Psyche, it was hot AF. Get a look into a session with Ben Silver and our new international rider, Damian Cespedes. The guys sweat it out and cover some local ground while snagging some choice clips along the way. More on that soon.” – Fit Bike Co.

BEIGE CRÜ – Lightwork V.1

December 4, 2020

The Beige Cru have been getting in some late night sessions (or maybe it’s not really that late, just that damn sun sets so early again) out in the streets and at their local park. Here’s a chill new edit with some great riding and a little skate action to enjoy! This reminded us of the “Lightworks” DVD from a few years back. Either way, this edit is worth a look, so hit play!

Eduarda Penso Bordignon On GT

December 4, 2020

There’s been a ton of ladies picking up BMX bikes these days and crushing it. It’s actually been hard to keep up with all the new names popping up! GT Bicycles hit us with some news that they’ve added Eduarda Penso Bordignon to their line up down in Brazil! We’re not too familiar with Duda, but it looks like she rips and must be doing something right to land a spot on GT. Check out the official word below, along with a few photos. We would imagine we’ll be seeing more from Eduarada soon!

“We’re hyped to announce our latest rider for GT, Eduarda Penso Bordignon, from Brazil.

It’s awesome to see how much the female freestyle BMX scene has grown over the past few years. New riders are coming up across the globe and the level of progression is exploding. With that said, we’re excited to be supporting 20-year-old Eduarda Penso Bordignon from Brazil. “Duda Penso”, as she’s better known as, calls Francisco Beltrão home, where she’s been putting in work in the parks, dirt and streets for the past eight years.

She’ll be joining our current Brazilian team riders Leandro Moreira and her fellow Vans Brazil teammate, Gustavo Balaloka, as well as fellow female shredder Chelsea Wolf and the rest of the ever-expanding GT BMX Freestyle team! Welcome to the GT Bicycles family, Duda, let the good times roll!” – GT Bicycles

Brian Tunney – November 2020 Clips

December 3, 2020

Although this year has been terrible, the time does seem to fly by. It’s a new month and that means that it’s time for Brian Tunney to give us a look at what he’s been getting into during his flatland sessions. Here’s what he cooked up over the course of November. Plenty of gems in here and once again picking out music that fits perfect. Take a look!

“The month started out just a little dramatic. There was this thing happening in the U.S. and it kinda drained me of motivation to go out and have fun. A week in, I decided enough was enough and had to force myself to detach from a gripping news cycle and go ride even if my brain was distracted. This is the result of that. Towards the end of the month, I stumbled onto an old how-to in a 1988 issue of Freestyle Spectacular or American Freestyler for a trick called the “Turnpike.” It’s basically a half bar-split decade out of a lawnmower and it baffled me. So I took a few hours one day to learn it but added a half lash and did it off the opposite side. Anything bar-split for me is difficult because I am not a fan of smashing my unmentionables but it seemed to work out okay here.

Song is from old friends Joan of Arc, buy the record here” – Brian Tunney
