Outside With Thiem, Siegel and Chavez
It’s going to be a good day when you get to spend a day riding spots around sunny San Diego. Check out this new Outside video!
“We are back OUTSIDE! This time around we catch a session with Jacob Thiem, Connor Siegel, and Outside video series veteran Antonio Chavez. Jacob is a trick machine and starts firing off right away. What was supposed to be a chill session at the skatepark turned into a full on power hour. After that we hit one of the best campuses in SD and had ourselves a day.” – Our BMX
Stranger X Primo – Rich People Coffee
The Stranger and Primo teams spent some time cruising L.A. for this new one.
The new era of Stranger and Primo is underway, and so far they’ve been doing real good things with the team bringing back Dylan Stark and Markell Jones, and now it looks like Johnny Raekes is on the team to add to the stacked crew as well. Hit play to check out this team mix featuring the crew going to work on Los Angeles street spots with riding from Connor Keating, Joji Mizogaki, Mikey Tyra, Linwood “Bosshog” Monk, Binky, Markell Jones, Johnny Raekes, Daniel Martinez, Lilcheez, Ryan Mills and Antonio Chavez throwing down. This is just the start, so we can only imagine they will be bringing the heat in 2026.
“Rich People Coffee — Street Mix (Stranger x Primo)
We spent nine days in Los Angeles, California, hitting the streets with the Stranger and Primo teams to capture footage for Rich People Coffee. This street mix showcases raw riding, heavy spots, and the energy that defines both brands moving into 2026.
Filmed and edited by Nate Richter, the project reflects the culture, style, and progression of Stranger and Primo BMX—built from the streets up.” – Stranger,/a>

“Antonio Chavez is a professional BMX rider from AZ living in San Diego. He rides for Fiend, Primo, Vans, and dabbles in the motocross world as well. He’s a recovering tiktok influencer lol. You’ve seen him in all the legendary Fiend web videos. You’ve seen him on Instagram. He’s clean he’s fresh he’s a cool humble mf. I enjoyed this conversation and I hope you do too!
