LIGHTS OUT – Joaco Awad

June 8, 2019

When it comes to street riding, the best spots are usually also the most protected or hard to access during the day due to traffic. Here’s a video that Juani Zurita put together featuring Joaco Awad putting some of these spots to good use during some late night sessions. This has a bunch of great riding and some super clean film work, making for a real good watch from start to finish. Take a look!

“Joaco Awad, Fighting against the most common enemy of the Bikers, The guards do not let him enjoy the spot, until the night approaches and the lights turn on.

And the action Begins.

Butcher Jam 2019 Highlights

June 8, 2019

Freedom BMX coming through with a raw cut of footage from this years Butcher Jam over in Germany! Hit play to check out riding from a ton of familiar faces like Felix Prangenberg and a handful of new names we weren’t familiar with until now! Check it!

“Hello! Today we get in touch with the Waterkant, where the Butcher Jam 2019 was rung in on the street evening on Friday evening – and that’s where it got down to business again this year. Not least due to the fact that the newly-baked X-Games silver medalist Felix Prangenberg was there to take the DIY park apart all day long. OMG! But also what the other guys delivered, was worth all honors. Last but not least, the performance of Leon Hoppe, who was once again at the start after a long absence from the contest and turned the handlebars as if he had never been away. 47!

An extra big thank you goes out to SIBMX, who jumped free beer during the contest. Jasia! Pssst, small tip: Bodo Hellwig of SIBMX is today’s birthday. So congratulate if you run into him today in the slaughterhouse BMX and Skate Park Flensburg!

Actually, should now follow the results of the Street Contest, but with which we can – and this is a tradition in Flensburg – not yet serve. Who has won, we learn only on Sunday evening at the award ceremony. In this sense: Stay tuned!
