We’ve seen some foootage from the new Source Park surfacing the past few days. Today we get an official BMX video from the grand opening that the Source crew produced. Check out riding from Dan Lacey, Kriss Kyle, Kevin Kalkoff, Lima, Matt Priest, Ben Lewis and a few others, with some insight from these guys on what they think of the place. We can’t believe how amazing the place turned out and it’s crazy to see what it looked like (watch the beginning of the videO) before they transformed it to what it is now. Phenomenal.

It has been a little while since we’ve caught up with Ben Lewis, so when we saw he dialed in his bike before making a trip over to the U.S. to film for the Etnies “Chapters” DVD, we figured it would be the perfect time to take a closer look at his Fit Bike Co. Benny L V2 setup decked out with Fit and Animal Bikes parts and to find out what he has cooking with his sponsors and plans for the year now that 2016 is under way! Ready?

Repost: Animal Bikes in Japan
Here’s one for you guys. Ryan Navazio decided to upload the BMX video from a trip to Japan that Mark Gralla, Jeff Kocsis, Ben Lewis, Tyrone Williams, Nigel Sylvester, Tom White and Nick Benson took back in 2013. This was part of the QSS 6 video that was released based around the trip. This one has been online before, but Ryan re-uploaded it to his personal Youtube channel, which was a good enough reason for us to repost it, since it’s a real good watch. Take it all in!
