Weird & Revered – Street Vultures Mixtape

May 1, 2019

With all of the footage the Weird & Revered crew have been pumping out the past few weeks, we almost wonder if they’re secretly just releasing their new “Vagabond Squad” video section by section. Then again, they did spend a few years stacking clips for the video, so it’s safe to say they just ended up having a ton of really good, extra footage. Hit play and check out more gold from the street of Canada and a few other trips! No shortage of dialed riding and spots in this one.

“For the past three years, Canada’s Weird & Revered crew has been working on a DVD entitled, “Vagabond Squad.” To promote their upcoming full-length project, the boys will be dropping weekly web videos every Wednesday leading up to their May 11 premiere in Edmonton, Alberta. All premiere and download/DVD release info can be found at http://weirdandrevered.com.

“Street Vultures Mixtape” is the crew’s fourth web video for this pre-DVD series.

The video features street footage from a large portion of the crew in their home province of Alberta. There are also some clips and b-roll from California and Mexico.

Riders: Tyler Horness, Derek Bolz, Thomas Henderson, Jesse Baraniuk, Justin Schwanke, Sean Tiffin, Joe Weidman, Duke Thomson-Kurz, Slade Scherer, Kostya Chimkovitch, Jonathan Hausmann, Simon Bierfreund, Logan Kirzinger

Carlos Vinuesa “All Right, You Got It”

May 1, 2019

It has been quite some time since we’ve seen a fresh BMX video out of Carlos Vinuesa, but it’s clear he has been out there crushing spots over in Spain. Here’s a fresh batch of clips that were filmed over the course of the past two years that you’ll definitely want to check out. Grinds, big 360’s, plenty of nose balance and more to check out. This is one you won’t want to pass up!

“Carlos Vinuesa really put himself through the ringer for this one via filmer Gonzalo Caballero. Carlos filmed for this in between working at a bar on a daily basis and also suffered a nasty ankle injury in the process, but damn was it worth it! After nearly two years shot in Madrid, Barcelona, Malaga, Granada and Salamanca, he can sit back and be proud of this one. End clip is a beast.
