Jonathan Andres – Still Street

December 5, 2019

The Luka Bikes crew down in Mexico dropped this new edit featuring Jonathan Andres going to work on some of his local street spots over the course o this year. Andres brings a nose balance, grinds, spins, whips and more to the table. He also has a real smooth style that is awesome, too. This is a solid BMX video, so take a look!

“We recorded these clips with Willy throughout 2019 in Torreón between competitions, trips and injuries. Willy’s level goes up every day and doesn’t seem to stop soon …

Federal Bikes – Joe Jarvis “FTS” Section

December 4, 2019

Federal Bikes coming through with another section from their “FTS” DVD for your viewing pleasure! This time around we get a look at Joe Jarvis‘ section that is loaded with big grind combos and huge 360’s down drops and stairsets, and more! Joe didn’t have the entire time to film, but that didn’t keep him from dropping some heavy hammers and ending up with a full section!

“The fifth of seven parts to hit the web from our Nora Cup winning full length video FTS. Joe Jarvis coming out of Northwich England is our youngest rider to feature in FTS. Joe broke his ankle in London half way into filming so was cut short but still came through with this ridiculous part.

Filmed and edited by Rich Forne.” – Federal Bikes

Anthony Perrin – Day & Night

December 4, 2019

Leave it up to Alex Valentino to come up with a rad idea like this. Here’s a fresh BMX video featuring Anthony Perrin cruise spots around Barcelona, Spain during some day and nigh sessions. What’s unique about this video is the transitions where it goes from night to day or day to night mid clip that looks really cool and kind of catches you off guard if you aren’t expecting it. The riding is great and the unique concept is really cool, so hit play and take a look at this!

“Alex Valentino captures MarieJade’s Anthony Perrin transitioning through day and night in Barcelona for 7 days, as only he can.

A Glow In The Dark Skatepark?

December 4, 2019

Get a look at this glow in the dark skatepark! There must have been a deal on glow in the dark paint lately because it has been popular as of late! A few weeks back Odyssey and Sunday Bikes announced their Limited Edition Glow In The Dark Kit that people went crazy for, now we just came across this article on Hypebeast that shows a crazy glow in the dark skatepark in Italy in an art installation called “OooOoO”. UNFORTUNATELY there’s nothing about bikes being allowed at this glow in the dark skatepark what so ever and it appears to be put on by the Academy of Skateboarding, so I don’t think we’ll be seeing any BMX footage from this place. Either way, it looks pretty damn wild and we figured some of you would at least be stoked to see it. Check out more about it on the triennale.org website.

Imagine if somebody rolled in there with a full Odyssey X Sunday Limited Edition Glow In The Dark Kit? That would look awesome, haha. I just can’t imagine how hard it would be to adjust to the glowing transition with everything else being dark. I feel like it would be tricky for your eyes to adjust, but maybe I’m putting way too much thought into this one since I won’t be getting anywhere near this place before the the paint is stripped off after February 15th when the art installation ends.

What do you think? Are you digging this or nah? Let us know what you have on your mind in the comments down below!

Has anyone else ever tried pouring glow in the dark paint on a park or spot? I feel like it would be really cool to see an edit from random street spots painted glow in the dark, like a rail or ledge with nothing else around it painted.

Alright, I’m going to wrap this up before I keep rambling about ideas, haha.

Weird & Revered – High Fashion Mixtape

December 4, 2019

The Weird & Revered crew up in Canada coming through with a fresh mixtape packed with footage that didn’t make the cut for their “Vagabond Squad” DVD that dropped earlier this year. This is just over 15 minutes of footage from park and street sessions, fun they had off their bikes and more. The video features a TON of different riders, so you get a super good mix of tricks and styles, which makes this a great watch from start to finish!

“Canada’s Weird & Revered crew spent three years filming for their full-length film, Vagabond Squad. Inevitably, they collected plenty of footage, some of which didn’t make it into the final cut of the film. Justin Schwanke found a home for the crew’s leftover footage in this new mixtape. Featuring street riding, park riding, and plenty of antics, the High Fashion Mixtape comes with a full dose of weird.

Riders: Thomas Henderson, Tyler Horness, Duke Thomson-Kurz, Ted Bambrick, Brodie Gwilliam, Sean Tiffin, Justin Schwanke, Logan Kirzinger, Kyle Lafleur, Colin Reimer, Andrew MacLeod, Mark Stanway, Eddie Anderson, Jesse Baraniuk, Percy Marshall, Taylor Marleau, Mitchel Johnson, Joe Weidman, Derek Bolz, Cary Lorenz, James Dean, Kolbi Watier, Brian Sveinson, and Pearce Grubisich

Karl Immers Is Not Scared To Send It

December 3, 2019

Woah… It’s not every day that we see a BMX video that makes us say that. Here’s a new video featuring Karl Immers absolutely crushing it at a few parks and dirt jumps. Karl has a crazy bag of tricks that includes briflips, bike flips, crazy fast tailwhips, double backflips, flip combos galore and more that left us blown away. We were NOT expecting to see all this when we hit play. There’s a good chance you haven’t heard of Karl, but you’ll definitely have him on your radar if you’re into this kind of riding after watching this one!

“Thank you to everyone along the way. Had so much fun, and so many downs with this one. Huge thank you to Mark Rubio for everything he did to help with this.
Another thank you to Konata Small for the song. Killed it! ” – Karl Immers
