The Oddities – Dillon Leeper

September 15, 2020

Whenever Dillon Leeper‘s name pops up, you know you’re going to see something rad. Here’s a new one filled with footage filmed over the course of the past two years from street and park sessions all over the place. Dillon delivers with great riding (always stoked on some fufanus and brake action) that you won’t want to pass up! Hit play and enjoy this BMX video!

“Over the course of the last two years, I’ve been fortunate enough to spend time chasing the never ending adventure of fun with my friends, running the roads of the east coast, venturing as far west as Tulsa, OK., to flying as far south as The Dominican Republic catching clips for Profile Racing. Many good times were had and memories were made that will never be forgotten.
Much love to Allan Del Monte, Latane Coghill, Donnie Allen, Kaleb Bolton, Shane Leeper & Matt Coplon for killing it with filming as well all the playas who gave us a place to sleep in times needed.
More important than all, big thanks to Matt Coplon for years of support and for always taking care of everyone. Without him, none of this would have happened; so my hats off to this man and I hope everyone enjoys what we have taken some time to work on.” — Dillon Leeper

The Yourewelcome crew coming through with a fresh Kyle White video for your viewing pleasure from the streets of Victoria up in Canada. Kyle puts the pegs to heavy use, with plenty of lines and combos, wallrides, and more. If you like jibby style riding, this is definitely for you.

“This video was mostly filmed during my time living in Victoria, BC, Canada. Slowly gathering clips over a year and a half stint with the idea of making a edit for the Local shop @rockbaybmx, with my two main biking homies: dangerous dan and chad ferch. 6 months later, I now live in Vancouver and have been off with a concussion, I found the motivation to get the clips to Tristan Sweet for him to edit this video and bring it all to life. Filmed by @dangerousdan17 and @chadraferch edited by @sweetlastnamebro” – Yourewelcome

Vans – Dennis Enarson “Right Here” Trailer

September 14, 2020

Vans have released a short but sweet trailer for the Dennis Enarson “Right Here” video that’s set to drop on September 24th! Any time Dennis goes to work on a video project like this, you know he’s going all in and going to drop some serious bangers. Hit play and get a taste of what’s to come. We cannot wait to see this!

“Back in June of 2019 Dennis Enarson set out to make the part of a lifetime; something he and the BMX community would be proud of. The goal was to capture BMX riding that lives on throughout time. He spent 8 months hammering away at his goal. This part was 90% complete before Covid hit and shut down plans for filmmaker, Rich Forne, to come out from Spain to San Diego to get Dennis’ last few bangers. Instead the two finished editing the part from other sides of the world.

Anyone that knows BMX already knows Dennis’ explosive energy and zero regard for gravity makes him one of the most savage humans on a bike.

And yet nothing could prepare you for the heaviness of RIGHT HERE. This is one of the gnarliest parts you’re ever going see.

RIGHT HERE PREMIERES SEPTEMBER 24th, 2020

Simon Tabron Suffers Heart Attack and Stroke – GoFundMe

September 14, 2020

This year has been one of the toughest without a doubt, and the bad news keeps rolling in. We just got word that Simon Tabron suffered a heart attack, and then a stroke a few days later. Simon is in the hospital battling it out and doctors are working hard to figure out what’s going on. There has been a GoFundMe Page setup to help Simon and his family out with the medical bills that are piling up. This is definitely a tough time and they could use your help. If you have a few dollars to spare, donate if you can. If you don’t, you can help spread the word by sharing this LINK.

“Hello everyone. My name is Chad Kagy and my dear friend Simon Tabron is in need of our support.

Simon Tabron is a beloved 46-year-old husband, father and decorated pro-BMXer, having earned 8 World Championship Titles and 20 X Games medals. On September 7, 2020 his family’s world was shattered when he suffered a cardiac arrest and, days later, a stroke. As we write this, Simon has been moved from ICU on life support to neurological division as doctors race to understand the cause of these catastrophic events and the long term effect they will have on Simon’s ability to speak, walk, and work.

This devastating blow comes on the heels of an already difficult season in his family’s life. Just last January, after being diagnosed with restrictive cardiomyopathy (terminal heart failure) and spending nearly a year in and out of hospitals, Simon’s 5 year-old daughter Scarlett received a life-saving heart transplant. Though Scarlett is thriving today, the family continues to be faced with the emotional and financial impact of her fight, less than two years ago.

At the moment we have more questions than answers and will update everyone whenever possible. We will post updates through this GoFundMe page to keep communication consistent and accessible.

The goal for this Go Fund Me is raising money to handle things such as a meal delivery service and day-to-day expenses that will allow Shanna to focus on Dylan & Scarlett through these challenging times. The Tabrons have a long road ahead of them and the medical bills will quickly add up so all donations will assist the Tabrons with daily life and medical bills.

Thank you in advance for your help during these challenging times.” – Chad Kagy
