If you have been wondering where the 989 Crew have disappeared off to, we now have a reason. They have decided to change things up and are now going by the Great Lakes State Crew. Here’s a little promo video explaining the change in name and a taste of what’s to come for their new full-length video that is in the works! A different name won’t change the fact that these guys produce some damn good videos, so get stoked.

GLS would like introduce new crew rider Jesse Vasquez. Jesse is one of the most down to earth people we know and he is obviously a natural killer on his bike. The decision was made effortlessly and were excited to work more with him in the coming years.

989 Crew – Louisville

July 12, 2016

The 989 Crew have been pumping out a bunch of BMX videos lately. It looks like they recently decided to load up and head south to cruise the spots in Louisville, Kentucky. This starts out with some footage from the skatepark that we honestly do not see enough footage out of followed up by some street action. It looks like these guys had a damn good time during their time riding the park, dodging a squad of ruckuses, getting “yelled” at by probably one of the coolest security guards ever, cruising street spots and more. Hit play to take it all in!

“The Crew headed to Louisville, KY with good friend Mike Vitatoe. The weekend had good vibes throughout as we cruised the park and the city. Enjoy!

Hit play to check out some heavy clips they cooked up from different skateparks and street spots they cruised during their visit.

989 Crew – “Our Video”

December 17, 2015

There’s so much talent coming out of Michigan on a regular basis. The 989 Crew is the next generation of guys who are putting in some heavy work out in the streets. Here’s a full-lenghter from the crew that features footage that was collected over the course of the year in a handful of cities around the Midwest! Great watch from start to finish! Get on that play button and check this BMX video out!

“The 989 crew’s ‘Our Video’ full length features full parts from Alex McTaggart, Jonathon Dietz, Trent Lutzke, Gage Keller, Grant Ueberroth, and plenty of local friends. The Michigan scene has been a source of a ton of talent over the years, with the 989 crew proving that the next crop is ready to leave their mark too. Consider this your formal introduction and keep your eyes peeled for these kids in 2016!

“The 989crew is based out of Bay City, Michigan. Located half way up the mitten state resting in the pocket of your thumb if you were looking at your hand. Michigan is harsh and the weather is unpredictable if we’re lucky we get 6-7 months out of the year to ride outdoors. As far as riding indoors we have a 2 hour drive south to the Detroit area where the majority of the Michigan scene is from. For this years project we set out to explore some of the major Midwest cities including Chicago, Louisville, Cincinnati,
Detroit, Grand Rapids, and a handful of small towns throughout Michigan. The highlight of filming for this video was the trek to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It’s hard to put into words the experience of going up there. It’s like no other place you could go to in the states. The spots are insane up there and I can see why BK and Tony Neyer traveled up there years ago. Filming for this project has been a big learning experience, nothing has came easy and I didn’t even know how to use a camera 2 years ago. I’ve got a lot of my inspiration from The Michigan Video crew. Our scene needs people that put out videos it keeps kids stoked on BMX. I’ve seen a rise in my local area of kids that come out to the parks. For the most part everyone in the state is really supportive of what we are doing and that’s what keeps us going. The plans are heavy for next year and you can keep up with us on Instagram @989crew. Thanks to Dig and Devin Feil for this exclusive.” -Alex McTaggart
