Rest In Peace, Pascal Lafontaine

July 8, 2020

It’s never a good day when we get word that BMX lost a rider. Today, we found out that Pascal Lafontaine has lost his battle with cancer after a very hard fought 5 year battle that took his leg early on. As many of you know, Pascal wasn’t going to let cancer keep him from his love of BMX and he actually produced one of the most amazing BMX videos in 2019 (above) showing just what he was able to throw down despite having an amputated leg. We’ve watched Pascal grow as an incredible rider since we first started posting about him back in 2012, and it’s clear that he loved BMX and wasn’t giving that up despite having to fight hard the past few years to keep rolling. Rest in peace, Pascal! You and your riding will never be forgotten, and you were an inspiration to so many riders around the world!

“My son Pascal Lafontaine left us yesterday afternoon. He left peacefully surrounded by his family. He fought his cancer with exceptional and extraordinary courage. He continued to receive treatment despite the great fatigue and pain that would cause him. He didn’t want to leave this life that he would hate so much.
We, his family, would like to thank all the people who have given Pascal words of encouragement and support during his last five years of fighting. Let’s remember that due to his cancer, Pascal suffered an amputation of his leg in 2015. He would have been 28 years old on July 20th.” – Pierrette Tetreault

Scotty Cranmer – Breaking More Records Since My Accident

July 8, 2020

We’re always stoked to see the progress that Scotty Cranmer has been making since his accident completely changed up his life! It’s been a little while since we’ve seen a video testing out just what kind of progress he’s made, but he hit the track behind his bike shop to see if he’s made some improvements with his speed.

After that, some of the crew head to a park for a productive session! Hit play and take it all in!

“I challenged myself to try to beat the record I set 1 year ago on the BMX track and it wasn’t easy! I had to try it three times and do some bike modifications but I did it! We also went to the skatepark and had a lot of fun watching my favorite skater do his thing!” – Scotty Cranmer

Going Fast – A Day with Larry Edgar

July 8, 2020

Curious what a day for Larry Edgar is like? Here’s a video where the Our BMX dudes followed him for a day as he cruised his yard, rode the local pump track, hit up Pat Casey‘s yard, played a little COD, drove some cars and more! Hit play and take it all in. It looks like it was a good day to us!

“Larry and I have been talking about meeting up and spending a day riding and doing hoodrat things and I decided to finally make it happen. No pressure, no real plan. I hit up Jeff Z to come shoot photos and we just went out and rode the stuff that he normally does. We were both hoping to do a bit more with his off road truck, but it wasn’t running at the moment. And, it was also surprisingly hot that day, so the heat soak happened quick.” – Our BMX
