DIY BMX Worlds 2019 – Whipsnake

July 15, 2019

The 3rd stop of the FBM X DIG DIY World Championships went down at the Whipsnake park out in the Carolina’s the other weekend. Despite some rain that kept things moist, it looks like everyone was able to get plenty of riding and good times in. This one looked more like a camping trip with friends than a contest, and that is what makes this so good. Hit play and take it all in!

“Deep in the cut of the US Carolina pine forests, completely off the grid and removed from normal society, sits a DIY/artist Shangri La of sorts, known as Whipsnake.
Built by underground DIY champion Tom Risser, this low-key spot showcases acres of his eclectic metal sculptures and this homemade concrete wonderland…

Miles from anywhere, and conveniently located right in-between somewhere and nowhere, we posted up for a weekend campout, for stop 3 on the FBM X DIG DIY World Tour, enduring mosquitos, coyotes, hundred degree weather, intense summer storms, and believe it or not, no phone service. Pack it in, pack it out, bring what you need, and leave with what you brought, minus a gallon or so of sweat, some blood, and whatever was inside the cooler…

Places like Whipsnake are wildly different than pre fab local parks, and most public spots, primarily known by word of mouth, amongst people in the ‘know’, places like this are hallowed ground for riders who build their own spots to ride, whether it’s a ramps, a set of trails or DIY concrete park, spot building and maintenance adds another layer all together to the riding experience, and Whipsnake is pinnacle to that whole idea.

Build your own fun , throw a jam, bring the people together and share it with everyone… – Steve Crandall

Kanode Knows – Ryan Chadwick

July 14, 2019

If you’re a fan of podcasts or video interviews in general, you’ll be real stoked on this one. Bobby Kanode sat down with filmer and all around good dude Ryan Chadwick to talk about a bunch of things like his X Games Real BMX 2019 video he filmed with Simone Barraco, making the decision to try out working outside of BMX and stepping down from his roles as TM and filmer for The Shadow Conspiracy, making the move back into BMX as a freelance filmer and much, much more. This is a real good listen, especially if you’re into filming or the industry side of BMX as a whole. Hit play and take it all in!

“Ryan Chadwick is a freelance videographer from Tempe, AZ. He’s won NORA Cup for the Shadow ONE video, an X-Games Silver medal with Simone Barraco in the 2019 REAL BMX Video contest, and he’s produced several full length BMX videos, including: I Got Work, I Got Work Strikes Back, and Shadow’s epic video What Could Go Wrong. We sit down in his beautiful ass house and talk about stuff. Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoy!

Leave a comment if you read that whole thing.” – Bobby Kanode
