Unclicked Podcast – Angie Marino

July 29, 2019

Dennis Enarson coming through with a fresh Unclicked Podcast for your listening pleasure! This time around Angie Marino sits down to talk about everything from riding to her new place she’s living at, riding for the Olympic team, travel, The Bloom, X Games and more. Angie has been CRUSHING it for quite some time now and it’s awesome seeing how far she has taken things since she started coming on the scene. It sounds like she even got a bump up at Vans, which is well deserved, too! As always, the Podcast isn’t embedable, so you need to check it out over on the Unclicked Buzzsprout website!

“This week on Unclicked we have pro bmx rider Angie Marino. Angie is on the USA Olympic team for girl’s bmx, she recently got on the Vans pro team, she runs a girl’s bmx website called thebloombmx.com, and she has just been killing it and progressing so much. It was awesome to sit down and talk with her about all this and we also touch base on the controversy with X Games not giving women their own event in bmx.” – Dennis Enarson

Cult coming through with a banger of a video from the trip to Arizona that Chase Hawk, Corey Walsh, Lil Jon, Dakota Roche, Angie Marino and Preston Okert took to to ride pools, bowls and ditches! With a line up like that, you already know this one is packed with speed and style! Check out all the highlights from the trip above. So damn good.

Womens Only Jam at Source Park Highlights

May 19, 2018

The ladies took over Source Park and crushed the place!

It’s been so rad seeing all the progress that the women in BMX have been making, especially in the last two years or so. It seems like there’s a TON of girls starting to ride BMX lately, and it’s been awesome to see. Source BMX have been doing ladies nights at the park since it opened, but they threw a big girls only jam to bring the ladies all together for a session. Check out this highlight video showing you everything that went down from a bunch of familiar faces and a bunch of new ones!

“Wednesday nights at the Source Park have always been girl’s night, but never quite like this… This time around over 20 women from all around the UK—as well a few visiting pros from the USA—took over the park for the Girls Only Jam. With no classes or age groups, everyone competed together—from 12 year old Sasha Pardoe to veteran pro Nina Buitrago. The judging premise was unique, as well, as the girl’s scores weren’t affected by what they didn’t pull, but only judged on what they did land. This approach encouraged the girls to push themselves and go for stuff regardless if they thought they could pull it or not. And it worked… just a few things we saw include 12 year old Sasha attempting fly-out tailwhips, Nina hitting the curved wallride, 16 year-old Hannah Roberts stomping a tailwhip air, Angie Moreno icepick grinding a rail off a kicker, and both Angie and Nina double pegging the big rail. A laid back session with your peers helping push each other to progress… sounds awesome, right? You bet it was. Shout out to all the women who rode, the people who showed up to show support, and The Source for supporting the women of BMX.

“What a nail biter this event was I had no bloody clue who was going to win this.

So rad to see all the pro riders watching and supporting all the females from the side lines.

The progression is what you could talk most about with this female division, in the last few events these elite females have really stepped it up and definitely competing at a world class level.

This is going to be amazing every step of the way to the 2020 Olympics in Japan.

Todays winner all the way from Japan!

Team USA Freestyle BMX Team Announced

December 14, 2017

The Team USA Freestyle BMX team has been announced…

If you were wondering who would be the first riders to represent team USA in the Olympics for Freestyle BMX… You now have your answer. Vital BMX just dropped a video and a whole bunch of information about who was selected for Team USA and what that means for these guys. After you check out the video, you can find out more on Vital BMX

“The United States of America officially has a freestyle BMX team.

Yesterday in Colorado Springs at The Olympic Training Center, USA Cycling named the following riders as members of their national team –

Nick Bruce
Colton Walker
Daniel Sandoval
Pat Casey
Justin Dowell
Hannah Roberts
Angie Marino
Cory Coffey

Along with naming the team, the athletes (and I, for some reason) got to explore the amenities The Olympic Training Center had to offer. From nutritionists to psychologists to masseuses – and much, much more – the riders have access to countless tools to maximize their abilities.

Is it weird? Yeah. Well, I take that back. No. It’s just new. New to us, that is. US Olympians have been using these tools for many years and have a whole lot of medals to show for it. With freestyle BMX officially becoming an Olympic sport, it only makes sense that – if they so choose – these riders will have access to all of the same things.

In addition to access to The Olympic Training Center, USA Cycling is also supporting the athletes financially. Pending their placings throughout the year, the athletes will land in one of three tiers. The top-tier athletes will receive benefits like fully-covered travel and even paychecks (a little over $2,000-per-month). All of the riders can receive monetary bonuses with good performances at major events.

To put it lightly, all of the riders were stoked at the opportunity to receive more much-needed support.

While this sounds great – and it is – the USA Cycling National Team is reevaluated quarterly. If a rider continues delivering favorable results, they have potential to grow with the team. If their results are less than stellar, they may fall to a lower tier of benefits or even be removed from the team entirely. There’s a good chance that the team in December of 2018 will look drastically different than this recently-announced team. Also, on the flip side, if riders not currently included from The United States are able to make a big impact, they can earn their way onto the team throughout the year. Competition is brutal!

While freestyle is young at USA Cycling and the majority of the people within the office walls are just starting to get familiar with it, I found my experience there enjoyable and promising. They don’t know much and they know they don’t know much. They’re open and they listen. That’s huge. If these guys came in thinking they knew how to run things, the entire US program would surely suffer. The higher-ups admit it’s a work in progress and, as time moves forward, I think we’ll be seeing more positive things coming from the crew.

Also, before you ask, I did discuss a freestyle training facility with USA Cycling. There aren’t currently any solid plans in place, but I wouldn’t be shocked if we saw something before The Olympics in 2020.

The future is bright. Thanks to USA Cycling for having me out and congratulations to all of the riders on taking their next formal steps in this new direction.” – Vital BMX
