4Down – The French Connexion: La Ville Rose

August 2, 2015

Now this is what we call a MUST SEE BMX video! A few weeks back it was announced that 4Down Distribution was setting up a second distribution point in France with Alex Valentino as the man in charge. Since then, Alex has been doing a little restructuring and getting a team of France’s finest setup. Today, we get a look at the first video from 4Down’s new crew, The French Connexion, which consists of Alex, Nico Badet (Now repping Fit Bike Co.), Antoine Nau (Now repping S&M Bikes), Nico Terrez (United Bike Co.) and Tom Deville (United Bike Co.). They have kicked things off with an amazing video filled with some dialed riding (and ROUGH crashes) on street spots they found in the city of Rose. Everything from the riding and spots to the filming and editing, which was handled by Alex Valentino, is so good. Get on that play button and enjoy. This is just the start of what appears to be a real good thing.

In The Cut – United Tour De France

July 9, 2015

The United Bike Co. team recently loaded up and took a trip on over to France to spend a few days cruising spots and stacking clips! DIG just released this raw cut of footage featuring the crew going to work on spots. As you can imagine, with a crew like the United team, they had no trouble coming up with some amazing riding on the spots they did end up coming across. Hell, they even got Ian Morris to slide a big rail to get his heart racing. Hit that play button and take it all in! This is a BMX video that’s well worth watching from start to finish.

“Loading up a van with bikes and hitting the road with a (very) loose plan has been a staple in BMX since the beginning. For the latest United filming trip we did exactly that, driving from the South of England to the South of France with bossman Ian Morris, young guns Harry Mills-Wakley and Fernando Laczko… and picking up ‘The French Connexion’ of Alex Valentino, Tom Deville and Nico Terrez on the way and temporary Frenchman Corey Martinez. With kilometres covered, injuries sustained, new friends made, fields slept in and footage collected for their ongoing ‘Still United’ project, it had all the ups and downs of a classic BMX road trip. Le Bangers are being held back for the DVD, until then enjoy the rest of the footage collected over our week through France via our latest DIG ‘In The Cut’ video.

4Down 1Up – Team Williams – Full Section

April 30, 2015

Here it is! The 4th video from the 4Down 1Up contest. This time around we have Nathan Williams and Alex Valentino putting in work on the 4Down Warehouse with James Cox behind the lens. Needless to say, both of these guys came through with some damn good riding and James’ unique approach to the editing turned out real good as well. The curved rail they put to good use lead to some awesome clips and that ender is wild. You don’t want to skip this BMX video!

“The final 4Down1Up video is here and it’s none other than TeamWilliams! It’s no surprise this one is equally as crazy as the other edits when the team is made up of a combination of Nathan Williams, United teammate Alex Valentino and filmer James Cox – and add that to a really interesting colour coordination idea with regular and switch and you’re in for a great video. Remind yourself of what TeamLacey, TeamMac, and TeamSmillie got up to earlier on in the week and then vote for your favourite video tomorrow along with being entered into our giveaway, courtesy of Dan’s Comp!” – DIG

4Down 1Up – On The Couch with Team Williams

April 24, 2015

Nathan Williams and Alex Valentino sit down on the couch to talk 4Down 1Up! If this video gives us any indication of what’s to come, it would appear that James Cox is giving their section an old school fee. We should be in for a treat. Take a peek!

“You would have noticed a bunch of behind-the-scenes photos from 4Down 1Up on our Instagram over the past few weeks and we’re so nearly ready to show you what’s been happening at the 4Down park in Hastings, UK. At the end of each 4Down 1Up session we got the teams On The Couch to get a little insight into the project and how each guy picked their counterpart rider and filmer. The final crew to get the interrogation treatment was United’s Nathan William’s and man of few words, Alex Valentino. The full edits will be released week beginning April 27th when you’ll have your chance to vote for your favourite on DIGBMX.com. Make sure you vote and you’ll have a chance to win a big ol’ bag of parts and prizes!” – DIG
