Lux BMX – Cody Pollard & Wilton Hedley “Aeterna” Section

March 18, 2020

The Lux BMX “Aeterna” Sections continue to impress! Here’s a look at the split section featuring Cody Pollard and Wilton Hedley going to work on bowls, rooftops and more. Both of these guys bring plenty of style and big, blasted airs to the table! Hit play and enjoy all the goodness!

“Cody has been blasting bowls ever since his early BMX days in North QLD, with a strong, aggressive style, masked with a huge grin, Pollard never looks like he’s having a bad time on his bike. In between a full-time job and searching the globe for bowls with the Fast and Loose Crew, Cody teamed up with long time friend and teammate Wilton Hedley along with resident filmer/rider Mike Vokenson. Together the three curated something that incorporated their friendship, the good times and big airs. Working hard for 3 years, taking some big falls and airing higher than everyone else Cody Pollard and Wilton Headly came through with a truly entraining watch from start to finish.” – Lux BMX

Sean Burns Needs Our Help! Spinal Surgery / Rehab Fund

March 18, 2020

It’s never good waking up to news like this. The other day Sean Burns had a horrific crash after falling off a two story roof while filming for a video project. Because of the fall, he broke his spine and lost feeling below his waist. Fortunately, surgery was able to repair some of the damage and get his legs working again, so Sean will be able to walk again. Unfortunately, he has a very long road to recovery and it’s going to be an expensive one. Due to Sean’s current situation, he didn’t have adequate health insurance so the medical bills are already piling up fast. Add in the timing with the Coronavirus chaos, it’ll be even more difficult. You can find out more info and how you can donate here…

The Shadow Conspiracy – Trey Jones Penumbra Railed Drop Nose Seat

March 17, 2020

The Trey Jones Penumbra Railed Drop Nose Seat from The Shadow Conspiracy has arrived.

The Shadow Conspiracy have released a handful of new products, and one in particular we have a feeling plenty of mid / old school guys are going to be stoked on! As many of you know, Trey Jones loves himself some Mid School BMX products, and his latest signature Penumbra seat is a tribute to a classic, the GT railed race seat. The Trey Jones Penumbra Railed Drop Nose Seat seat has a high impact nylon composite base with heat-treated chromoly rails, a textured vinyl top panel with screen printed logos and a front bumper. The seat looks just like the original and is available through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry The Shadow Conspiracy worlwide now or in the Shadow Conspiracy Webstore for $29.99 now!

It will be interesting to see if railed seats start making a comeback. Relic released a railed seat a year or two ago and it has been popular. S&M also have a railed seat as well, but it’s currently sold out. Do you think the full circle of BMX products is starting to come back around? We’ll have to wait and see…

Check out more photos of the seat below.
