Like they always say, time flies when you’re having fun. The “Transmission” DVD was released two years ago already. BSD decided to go through and pull out the best footage and pack it into this dialed edit for your viewing pleasure. If you want a reminder of how good the “Transmission” video is, this is a good reminder. After you watch this, go re-watch the full video right here — “Full “Transmission” video!

“Having missioned around the globe for two years stacking ridiculous riding clips with the BSD team on over 10 trips it’s nearly impossible to choose the best of them, but here we go. This edit marks the 2 year anniversary of Transmission’s world wide premiere in Glasgow with a selection of just some of the highlights from Dan Paley, David Grant, Sam Jones, Mike Jersey Taylor, Matt Allpress, Jason Teet, Luc Legrand, Liam Zingbergs, Kriss Kyle, Reed Stark and Alex Donnachie’s sections from the 2016 BSD Transmission DVD.

BSD coming through with some raw Alex Donnachie clips from Unit 23 Skatepark…

It has been a little while since we’ve seen footage from Alex Donnachie since he’s been healing up from knee surgery the past few months, but it looks like he still had some footage that hadn’t been used. BSD just uploaded this raw batch of clips featuring Alex slaying Hall 2 at Unit 23 with grind combos and lines. Take a look and get your Alex D. fix!

“Alex Donnachie filmed a bunch of crazy tech in Unit23’s Hall 2 over the winter before going under the knife for ACL surgery. This stuff’s been on Instagram but we thought the riding deserves to be cut together and put in one place to be watched. Enjoy…” – BSD
