Odyssey – Murray Loubser “At Ease” Section

May 15, 2020

You should know by now that when you see Murray Loubser‘s name pop up, you’re going to see something wild. When Odyssey released their “AT EASE” video, we were stoked to see a full part loaded with bangers from Murray in it. Well, his section is now online individually for you to enjoy again! Hit play and take in all the bangers he was laying down during his time in the U.S! After watching this, go re-watch the full video here — Odyssey “AT EASE” – Full Video

“Murray Loubser hails from South Africa but made the trek out to California for 6 weeks with the squad. Murray seemingly has it all; absurd technical skill, a good eye for spots, clean style, and the urge to SEND IT on the big setups. Not to mention the dude is one of the most polite and mild-mannered individuals I’ve ever met. After clocking a handful of gnarly “stunts” in the first week or two of his stay, it became clear that Murray would likely be holding down the last section of the video. Sit back, relax, and enjoy Murray’s closing section from “At Ease”.

About two weeks ago we got a look at Tate Roskelley’s Amazing Quarantine Contraption that was a super elaborate way to get a front wheel on his bike. Well, it was also a very long process to make it all work. Here’s a video where Tate explains some of the behind the scenes details!

“From conception to execution, and all of the trials and tribulations along the way, 11 hours and 236 tries later, Tate Roskelley’s Quarantine Contraption was a reality. Here’s a behind the scenes look at the entire process. Safe to say, Tate has a lot of patience!

Want to learn how to adjust BMX brakes to get super smooth pull and great stopping power?

We’ve seen a bunch of great videos showing how to adjust BMX brakes thanks to guys like Brant Moore, but when it comes to brakes, there isn’t enough videos that will help people figure out how to dial their bikes in! James at Kings Ride Shop put together a video showing how to adjust BMX brakes on a new complete bike with some great tips and examples showing you how to get those brakes dialed in so they pull smooth and lock up nice, even with the cheaper brakes that come stock on some bikes! Having dialed in brakes can make all the difference when you’re learning tricks like fufanus, tail taps, abubacas and, you know, stopping in general!

BCN Amigos

May 14, 2020

Just when you thought the Barcelona footage was starting to dry up! Here’s another rad video coming from the BMX mecca for your viewing pleasure. This features a mix of great riding and spot usage throughout the city. Although the pandemic cut the trip short, it looks like these guys had plenty of footage to work with!

“Chris Patrick Tilk began shooting clips with Stephan Atencio (Wethepeople), Max Cvetkovic, Andreś Caviedes, Ian Zapata, Jaume Sintes, and Mauro Valencia for 4 days and then lockdown reared its ugly head. Chris decided to draw a line under it and throw the clips together for this BCN Amigos piece. FLIP-MODE! There’s some serious talent in those streets.” – DIG

United – Ben Gordon 6 Weeks From Stuttgart To Barcelona

May 14, 2020

Now this is what a good time looks like. Ben Gordon spent a few weeks bouncing between Stuttgart, Germany and Barcelona, Spain cruising spots with is friends this past winter. All throughout the trip, Ben stacked a ton of great clips for this new BMX video for United. If you weren’t itching for a trip with your friends, this will definitely get you scratching.

“UK winters are generally horrendous for riding, even when it’s dry you’ve got too many thermals on to move. Myself and a couple mates decided to boycott as much of winter as we could and planned a 6 week riding trip to Stuttgart and then to Barcelona. The trip was fraught with mishaps from the onset: storm Dennis delaying our flights, bikes not turning up in Germany for two days, constant injuries and good old Covid-19 cutting the trip a week short. Aside from the downsides, it was one of if not the best trip I’d ever been on, never laughed so much in my life. This video is the product of all-round lolz and Euro cervezas for five weeks.” – Ben Gordon
