June 4, 2019

This is wild. Check out this video Jake Seeley put together from the Ighthype Dirt Brawl jam he threw at a dirt bowl out in the woods of the Northeast. This video gives us a look at all the wild riding that went down, the confusion of the cops that got called in and much, much more. It looks like everyone had a real good time at this one. Take a look!

“This is what you get when you re-birth a giant skatepark bowl out of dirt in the middle of the woods and get all of the Berkshires best riders and supporters together for a unsanctioned unstoppable BMX jam like no other! Here’s a full recap of the madness that went down May 11th deep in Pittsfield, MA very own Spring Side Park. Huge shout out to everyone that helped make this event possible (You know who you are) and of coarse all of you who came out to join us on this eventful day that not even the cops could shut down!

Billy Woodfin – My Ramp

June 4, 2019

We always love seeing a video like this, especially since we don’t get too many mini ramp edits to enjoy these days. Here’s a new one Billy Woodfin put together from some of the sessions that he has been getting in on his backyard ramp. This has a ton of awesome lip tricks and front brake magic that is too damn good to miss. Highly suggest you hit play and take this all in!

“I gave myself two weeks to film an edit on my ramp that i have had for a year now all except one clip was filmed in that time frame the other clip was filmed a month before when i tried to do the same thing but got hurt. Every clip was filmed on a tripod (or Shovel used as tripod) with either my gopro or an iphone i had laying around. I would like to thank Standard Byke Company, Profile Racing, SCG shoes and Albe’s Mail Order for the continued support!! I would also like to thank Trampled By Turtles for allowing me to use their song “Wait So Long”” – Billy Woodfin

The Waffle Jam 2019

June 4, 2019

It seems like there’s always something rad going on down in South Africa. Here’s highlights from The Waffle Jam that went down in Cape Town recently. They took an old abandoned pool, brought in some ramps, poured some cement transitions, dropped a trampoline, grill and DJ in there and things went off. Hit play to see everything that went down!

“The Waffle Jam is annual BMX jam hosted by Vans South Africa in the Mother City of Cape Town. This years Jam gave collaboration a whole new meaning with a large amount of DIY. The project was lead by Vans team rider Brandon Blight, who saw potential in a newly repurposed high school swimming pool as the venue for this years event. The pool has been empty for many years and has lost its structural integrity, deeming it unsafe for use as a swimming pool. In recent years, local skate legend Dallas Oberholzer had come to an agreement with Cape Town High School to allow for DIY concrete trannies to but built inside the school, with the end goal of a unique skatepark in mind. The pool is not yet open to the public, aside from one skate event. Brandon and Dallas put their heads together and began to plan what the BMX riders of Cape Town could contribute to this new park. With only a few weeks away from Cape Towns winter settling in, the planning and building began. More trannies were added in the shallow side of the pool for flow, with the intention of leaving deep end un-modified, as many could agree, it was gnarly enough as it stood. Many riders and homies came through with different skill sets to prepare the pool, ramps, school grounds and cater for the event. Luck was on our side and Cape Town showed us her finest colours, resulting in a warm, windless day for the jam. Huge shout out to everyone who came thru for that entire week leading up to the jam and picked up a drill, spade or butter knife. See you all at Waffle Jam 3!” – Kevin Schnider

Results:

1st – Vincent Leygonie

2nd – Murray Loubser

3rd – Malcolm Peters

Best trick – Jason Prins
