Wethepeople – Felix Prangenberg “Strange Times”

May 6, 2020

Things have definitely been strange the past few months, especially once the quarantine rules started locking things down. However, there has been some good that has come from this. Wethepeople just dropped this fresh BMX video featuring Felix Prangenberg taking advantage of the quieter streets to stack a TON of real dialed clips! There’s definitely a few spots in this we imagine might have been a little harder to film at without less people around. Hit play and check out a ton of dialed clips you won’t want to miss!

“Felix Prangenberg decided to be as productive as possible during the quarantine in Germany. With German lockdown rules allowing you to meet up with one other person, Felix met up with a few of his homies (individually) to see what was possible filming wise. Felix being Felix, 3 weeks later he had a 5 min banger filled video part ready to help get you guys through these strange times…

Filmed by Beefy, Dave Paterson, Nico Van Loon, Nina Ebner & Aaron Paffenholz.

Weird & Revered – Jesse Baraniuk “Vagabond Squad” Section

May 5, 2020

The sections from the Weird & Revered “Vagabond Squad” DVD are starting to flow online! Here’s a look at Jesse Baraniuk‘s section that’s loaded with a bunch of great riding. Creative and unique lines mixing brakes, pegs and a freecoaster from start to finish. It’s definitely good to see more riders running brakes lately, making for amix of tricks we don’t see a ton. Hit play andd take it all in.

““Vagabond Squad” is a full-length video from Canada’s Weird & Revered crew. Filmed from 2016 to 2019, the project is community rooted with a strong focus on the Edmonton BMX scene. Although a majority of the clips are from the crew’s home city, the footage spans 9 countries, 8 American states, and 4 Canadian provinces and territories.

Next up in our release of sections from Vagabond Squad is Jesse Baraniuk.” – DIG

“You’ve probably heard this quote at some point: ‘Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.’ Jesse may cringe at the fact that I’m using this quote to describe him, but it partly sums up his lifestyle. The important distinction with Jesse is that he’s self-taught through and through. Jesse—or “Beans” as some may call him—is independent to his core and hates being told what to do. That’s probably part of the reason why he’s been living in a camper van, working only as needed, and posting up around Canada. Jesse likes to figure things out himself and take care of himself. It’s this attitude that is probably why Jesse progressed the most of anyone in the crew during the filming of the DVD. It wasn’t his friends giving him advice on new tricks that significantly improved his riding; it was his personal drive to experiment and master his craft. For Jesse, that craft involves a freecoaster, four pegs, and a brake. Give a man a freecoaster, and he will learn to ride backwards. Give a man four pegs, and he will learn to grind on all sides. Give Jesse a brake and clear pads, and he will verbally assault his friends. ‘Screech, screech.’ I guess what I’m trying to say is I admire Jesse’s nomad spirit; that spirit shines through in his riding and this DVD part.” – Justin Schwanke

Fit Bike Co. – Isolation with Emerson Morgan

May 5, 2020

It looks like Emerson Morgan has been making the most of the isolation rules that have been put in place. Here’s a look at a video he whipped up from the sessions on some backyard ramps he’s been putting together. Hit play to check out what he cooked up, along with some real solid riding clips. Stoked to see more riders throwing the brakes back on as of late!

“So for a little while now I have been doing a bit of part-time work for one of the homies Taz and during this whole lockdown situation here in the UK we thought why not build a ramp to ride when we have a spare minute. Next thing you know one ramp turned into two, then three, then pretty much a whole park setup with moving rails and sub boxes that we could just drill into any position we chose. Whilst we were doing all this I thought why not shoot a little isolation video. So here it is. Enjoy!” – Emerson Morgan
