Best of Battle of Hastings 2019

September 11, 2019

Last weekend the Battle of Hastings went off at Source BMX, and there was no shortage of insane riding that went down. Over the course of the weekend there were a ton of videos and a live stream that popped up, so it would be easy to miss some of the action. Here’s a video giving you a look at all of the best BMX riding that went down between the plaza and the bowls!

“A lot of heavy riding went down at BOH this year and we pretty much got all of it, but if you don’t have like two hours to watch all the stuff we put out, here’s the best of practice, qualifiers, best trick, the plaza edits, and finals condensed down to ten minutes of creative, technical, and outright insane riding.” – Our BMX

Moto Bunka “Cross Over” Trailer

September 11, 2019

The Moto Bunka crew over in Japan have been logging some serious miles and stacking a ton of footage for their new “Cross Over” DVD that’s in the works! Here’s the first trailer for the video that covers a ton of ground and appears to feature a whole bunch of riders. The full video isn’t due out until 2020, but damn does it look like it’s coming together quite nicely!

“MOTO-BUNKA Presents.
Full length DVD ”CROSS OVER”
We’re launching the Opening Trailer of the DVD and the official website.

The concept of the DVD is a BMX connection with the world through Japan.
Initially, shooting began in 2016 with our thoughts to “Transmit Japanese riders who bring originality to the world”. Riders who have the same value on originality as us are joining this project now from also out of Japan.
Asia, USA, and Europe.

Over time, over the generations and over the national borders, BMX riders from all over the world are starting to cross over centered on Japan.

Ian Schwartz – Mosh (2008)

September 11, 2019

The crew at Snakebite coming through with another gem from the past for your viewing pleasure. This time around they’ve uploaded this old Ian Schwartz video for Mosh that originally came out back in 2008. Ian was pushing the freecoaster, pegless style way back when only a handful of guys were doing the freecoaster thing. Ian had a super smooth style and came up with a bunch of creative lines on some great spots for this one, so hit play and take it all in. It’s pretty wild how far freecoaster riding has progressed in the last 11 years. Take a look!

Lip Lords Hitching Post Session At The Wheel Mill

September 10, 2019

We can’t remember the last time we saw a BMX video filled with this many clips from a hitching post setup, but we’ll take it. Brant Moore hit us with a link to his latest video from a very productive session he caught with Mike Potoczny riding the hitching post setup at The Wheel Mill. As expected, both of these guys came through with a ton of creative and crazy clips in just a short amount of time. If you want something a little different that will spark your creativity, this should do the trick!

“Hitching post riding seems to be a lost art in BMX.
Mike Potoczny built this hitching post in less than 15 minutes at The Wheel Mill and then we shredded it for a couple hours to make this video!
Also featuring a guest clip from young shredder Noah Forker!” – Brant Moore

Martti Lainevool – Indigo

September 10, 2019

It’s been a minute since we’ve seen a fresh BMX video from Martti Lainevool, but he’s been busy stacking clips over in Tallinn, Estonia! Here’s a fresh edit packed with big grinds, along with some heavy lines, whips and more. Martti definitely delivered with this one!

“Estonia’s Martti Lainevool made the move to the capital city, Tallinn and got acquainted with the local spots in no time, cooking up this banger of a video with filmer Gert Lill. Be on the lookout for this guy – he’s got some serious talent.” – DIG

“When i heard that Martti is moving to my hometown, Tallinn, I knew a video part had to be made since we haven’t had a proper one in Estonia for years. Although we both had a busy summer, we still managed to get together to film, which is a pleasure with Martti. Haven’t met a guy who is so determined and focused on a bike for a while, and he is doing it all for the love that we all have – BMX bikes. Always smiling, always laughing, this dude just one bangs the sickest tricks and is just a pleasure to watch on a bike. Just enjoy something we enjoyed doing the whole summer, and give this dude some love.” – Gert Lill
