Mateus Beckmann – Flatland & Street 2019

December 8, 2019

We’re always stoked to see a fresh Mateus Beckmann edit pop up because we never quite know what we’re going to see! Mateus mixes flatland riding with his street and park sessions and always cooks up so many crazy combos. This new edit is no different with a look at over 8 minutes of great footage he collected over the course of the year. This BMX video is well worth a watch! Check it!

Nick Pytel 2019 Video

December 8, 2019

Here’s one that came through the submissions to check out from Nick Pytel out in Chicago. This is a mix of park and dirt clips from a bunch of different spots like Wilson Skatepark and Woodward East. Nick has been riding for about 4 years and it looks like he’s on the right track with a good mix of tricks in the bag and likes to keep things fresh with what he’s riding. Hit play and take it in. Not the craziest video, but definitely a good vibe to it! Take a look!

“Phone clips from 2019 (and 4 clips from 2018). Filmed by homies. Steez is key. Song is All Die Young by Smith Westerns. RIP 2019.“

Merritt – 4-Piece Slaughter Bars Promo

December 7, 2019

Merritt have released their new 4-piece Slaughter Bars for you to get your hands on. To celebrate, they put together this promo featuring their squad putting the bars to heavy use out in the streets. This is a mix of some great riding, along with a detailed look at the bars and geometry. Hit play and take it all in! Check out more on the bars right here on Source BMX.

“Our new Slaughter bars have landed. The bars are designed and made to be extra strong without being overbuilt. The bends of the uprights and crossbar provide maximum welding surface area for ultimate strength. Further down the uprights ovalize and wrap around the stem clamp bar, again maximizing welding area and reducing flex associated with taller handlebars. Constructed of multi-butted 4130 chromoly and post-weld heat-treated. With 2° upsweep and 12° backsweep, they are 29.25” wide and available in 9” and 9.25” rises. Tested and trusted by Greg Henry, Ricky Lopez, Anthony Catlow, Oscar Ruiz, ZJ Henderson, Marc Ramos and the rest of the team.” – Merritt

Play That Back! – Jasper Jones & Draven Wheeland

December 7, 2019

Here’s a rad one featuring Jasper Jones and Draven Wheeland putting in work on street spots and skateparks around the Portland, Oregon area. This footage was intended for a DVD that isn’t happening, but at least the footage found its way online because it’s real solid! Check this BMX video out!

“So we were filming for a DVD but both of my cameras decided to shit the bed and we ended up just deciding to throw what we had for these two guys together.
I really tried to portray the fun we have just as much as how hard these guys shred. It is so amazing having the opportunity to film with these guys. They both have such incredible attitudes and neither of them give a single shit about their well being when it comes to riding. These two dudes are some of my best friends and also my absolute favorite bike riders. The scene here in Portland, OR has dramatically died down in the last few years. While we’re all effected when a BMX scene starts to dwindle away a bit, these guys have taken it in stride and haven’t missed a beat. They worked incredibly hard to produce this. I’m so grateful to call these amazing bike riders my friends and that they let me document what they do so I can make into something for the world to see.
As you can tell, a lot of work went into the riding in this video but even more so than that we had a ridiculous amount of fun making it and that’s what it always has been and always will be about.
Enjoy.” – DFGESUS
