May 28, 2019

Wethepeople and Eclat‘s connect over in France, Robin Bourhis, coming through with a dialed new edit packed with grinds, nose balance, whips and much, much more. Robin isn’t scared to charge some big rails and ledges, and this video is a good indicator of that. Hit play and check out a ton of great riding in this fresh BMX video.

“Not heard of Robin Bourhis yet? Get acquainted with WTP x Eclat’s French fireball in this video that’s been a long time coming. Between studying civil engineering at university and a busy videographer’s schedule it took three years in total to come together. Thanks to the handy Interrail deal the guys managed to take in the sights of Rome, Trieste, Budapest, Ljubliana, Amsterdam, Paris and Athens. Robin certainly made the most of all the new territory, bagging himself some wild clips along the way.

Real BMX 2019 Crash Reel

May 27, 2019

When it comes to filming a part for something like the X Games Real BMX contest, you better believe the riders picked are going all in for it. Although these are some of the best BMX riders in the world, they do crash, and when they do shit as gnarly as these guys do for the videos, it can be brutal when they do crash. Here’s a crash reel showing some of the heavier slams that Brad Simms, Dan Coller, Jordan Hango, Greg Illingworth, Simone Barraco and Corey Martinez took while working on their parts for the X Games Real BMX 2019 Videos.

“Watch the slams that came before the makes in the filming of the contest video parts for Real BMX 2019, brought to you by ESPN, the World of X Games and Nexcare.” – X Games

Emmanuel Rodriguez – It’s Time

May 27, 2019

It’s always rad to check out a video of a rider we’re not too familiar with. Here’s a fresh one featuring Emmanuel Rodriguez going to work on spots galore down in Guadalajara, Mexico! Emmanual isn’t scared to send a big whip or drop, and this video is a good indicator of that. Hit play and check it out!

““Until a couple years ago, very few riders knew Emmanuel Rodriguez Fragosa “Many” and his technical street riding, until a park (the largest in the city) was built outside the city of Guadalajara México, near of his home. And after that we started working to get some sponsors, and during the film period, Mutante BMX and Squalo (yes, the surf clothing brand) start to support him with bike parts and some clothes, and after a couple of injuries we finished the film period and I begin to work in the edit.
This is our work and we hope you like it.
