Scotty Cranmer – 900 for the 900K Challenge

April 24, 2017

We can’t imagine you’re too surprised to hear that Scotty Cranmer‘s Youtube channel has rolled over 900,000 subscribers, but today is the day! To celebrate, they brought in some help to pull off the 900K Challenge with a 900… Since Big Boy couldn’t make it happen. Luckily they were able to bring in Jared Heitzman to get the job done! Check out what went down!

“The channel has finally made it to 900,000 SUBSCRIBERS! And just like we do with every milestone we did a challenge video and this time the the big boy has an idea for trick. We all met up at the skate park and big boy was ready to go he wanted to go all out and push the limits on this one he said there is only 1 trick that could be done for 900K and that trick is the 900!! I couldn’t believe that big boy called a 900 out! I thought he was joking and before I can get him to pick another trick he was already on his way to the foam pit! He got on his bike and tried his best but he failed miserably and that’s when I knew we were going to have a long night ahead of us. But when he got out of the foam pit he immediately got on his bike to go try it on the resi ramp I begged him not to try it but in typical big boy fashion he sent himself and crashed pretty hard! At this point I decided the only way to stop him was to put the camera away. Then we started to think of a different trick to do and then big boy ran out of the skate park to rush back in like two minutes later claiming that he made a phone call and that in 30 minutes the 900 was going to be done! We were so confused by what he was saying he wouldn’t give us an answer he just told us to wait 30 minutes and we would find out! He then ran to the front of the skate park and got dodge balls out to have a dodgeball games to pass time! I couldn’t believe that for 900K we were playing dodgeball. But after 30 minutes big boy had a special guest come into the skate park and to our surprise it was our friend Jared and yes he’s fully capable of 900’s and told us that he was going to do the challenge! So crazy! Jared got on his bike got warmed up doing a lot of amazing tricks that only he can do and we were having an awesome time! then Jared decided it was time to attempt the 900 challenge. He tried the trick and crashed but he kept on getting up like a champion and trying again and again and eventually Jared blue everybody’s mind by landing the 900 and completing the 900,000 subscriber challenge! This subscriber milestone was a big one for us we are that much closer to getting to 1 million subscribers and we owe it all to everyone watching our videos every day and motivating and inspiring and myself and the rest of the crew to keep on pushing the limits of BMX! Thank you all for the support and let’s get the countdown to 1 million subscribers going!” – Scotty Cranmer

Teaching Big Boy How To Superman Seat Grab

April 22, 2017

It’s time for Big Boy to learn a new trick. This time around they decided he should learn Superman Seat Grabs! Although the coaching staff doesn’t have the best experience with the trick, except for Scotty, there was plenty of advice to help him get it done. Hit that play button to see how it all panned out and if he rolled away with this one added to his bag of tricks or not!

“On this channel we have managed to teach Big Boy many tricks, some that he thought that he could never do. He is a head case and his biggest enemy, but he know if we think he can do something than chances are he can probably do it. So he always gives it ago. Today we taught him on of my favorite tricks in BMX which is a superman. We took him through the steps of how to superman. It started out really ruff but ended off amazing. We had all the boys there giving him pointers even though I was the only one to ever successfully do super man it was still awesome to see them all there supporting there friend to learn a new trick. Thats what BMX riding is all about.” – Scotty Cranmer

Scotty Cranmer – BMX Hurdles 2

April 20, 2017

Scotty Cranmer decided to get the guys out for a little race to see who could make it through the hurdles the fastest once again. Here’s a video from the 2nd BMX hurdles race challenge that lead to so impressive times and tight competition. Check out what went down and who took the win!

“Finally got around to doing the BMX hurdle race 2! The first race came down to the wire and I ended up winning against my little brother Matty but today I’m injured and Matty is injured and we also have a couple new competitors! The race started with individual time trials to figure out the seating of the head to head events and that’s when things got crazy! Today’s course featured six hurdles on each track which is a lot of bunnyhopping. Your arms get tired and your legs turn into jello and you are shoulder to shoulder with your competitor trying to get to the finish line first! We had a couple crashes and a couple near misses but we had a few amazing races which led to an epic finish! today was fun!” – Scotty Cranmer

Scotty Cranmer Progress Update: Back To Driving

April 17, 2017

Any of you who have been following Scotty Cranmer‘s progress update should be stoked on this one, especially if you’re also a fan of the car stuff he has been doing with the channel. Here’s a video from a “drivers test” that Big Boy setup for Scotty to do in his GT-R that has been just waiting for him to be able to get back behind the wheel since his accident. It’s pretty awesome seeing Scotty be able to drive again since other than BMX, that is his big thing. So, if you want to see him take the test, get on that play button!

“It’s been six months since I had my accident that changed my life. The day before my accident I brought this to GT-R home from the dealership and I haven’t driven it since! But today Big Boy has an idea to challenge me to drive my Nissan GT-R behind my bike shop on a driving course set up to test my motor skills with obstacles! I have to stay in between the lines while avoiding an orca whale, a tweaker, park in a parking space forwards and backwards, and end with a parallel park job next to a concrete wall! I was terrified but I was also so excited to give it a try! There were a couple close calls but I managed to make it through the course without an insurance claim! Just another step closer to getting back to a normal life!”

The Bicycle Skateboard Flair

April 15, 2017

Yesterday we got a look at the Bicycle Skateboard that Big Boy cooked up. If you caught the video, you would have heard Big Boy call out a flair on this BMX bike with a skateboard for wheels. This video starts out with a few of the guys seeing what the setup can take. After a little session, we see if this thing can go upside down! Take a peek!

“So we built the bicycle skateboard and we managed to do a few flat ground tricks on it. At the end of the first video, Big Boy said that he wanted to take it to my skatepark and he called himself out on trying a flair on one of the ramps! So we got the crew together and met up at the skatepark and all the guys took their turns on trying their tricks. They managed to grind on it, do wall rides, and Big Boy even managed to break it! But after the session was over, Big Boy had one last trick to try. So we all followed him to his favorite ramp and watched him figure out his approach, but in true Big Boy fashion, he tried it without any practice and he crashed his first attempt. He got up with the fire in his eyes and he managed to successfully flair on the bicycle skateboard! We had so much fun riding it and plan on taking it all over to other skateparks.” – Scotty Cranmer

The Bicycle Skateboard

April 14, 2017

It looks like Scotty Cranmer and Big Boy have decided to get creative again. About a year ago Scotty made the Nose Wheelie Adaptor, now it looks like Big Boy decided he wanted to see how well a Bike and a Skateboard work together as one. This video takes us through the process that it took to build it, followed up with Big Boy giving it a test. Will it work? Hit play to find out!

UPDATE: Want to see if Big Boy can do a FLAIR on this thing? WATCH THE VIDEO HERE.

“We have been talking about making this bicycle skateboard for a while now and after hearing big boy big begging me for the chance to finally make it this week we decided to give it a try! We started out with one of my old BMX bikes we took the wheels off and the sprocket and chain then we took a skateboard from my bike shop and cut it in half then bolted a set of fork mounts to the skateboard and then we rigged up a bicycle seat post from the fork tube to the skateboard and decided it was ready for a trial run! To our surprise it’s seem to hold up well enough to try some tricks on it! Big boy was able to do a Bunnyhop/ollie, a 180 to half cab out, a 360 on flat, and even managed to do a 50 50 grind on a flat rail! I had my doubts but the skateboard bike did work and we had a lot of fun building it! Big Boy even called himself out to try a flair on it in the next video at my skate park! I am so excited to see it go down!”

Scotty Cranmer – Puppy Arms Is Flippin’ Out

April 11, 2017

Scotty Cranmer coming through with a fresh video for your viewing pleasure. This time around Scotty takes a trip back to the Edison Skatepark with Big Boy, Brooklyn and Cory Berglar for a full day of riding and sunshine. As expected, the guys all produced and there are plenty of laughs along the way. Check it out!

“We took a trip back to Edison skate park and the last time I was here big boy broke the microphone off of my camera! And also big boy failed a flair challenge on a small quarter pipe. This time there was no camera broken and the flair redemption was attempted as soon as we got there! The boys did a bunch of riding and Cory “puppy arms” Berglar even invented a new trick! BK did a lot of awesome tail whip lines. Big boy also did the craziest rail ride that he has ever done before and Cory did a crazy backflip out of the spine transferring to a box and he even did a turn down in the middle of it! Such an awesome day riding BMX bikes at an awesome skatepark!”

Game of BIKE – Big Boy VS Sketchy Carl

April 9, 2017

With the stakes extra high, Big Boy and Kyle Goldenbaum have gone HEAD TO HEAD to see just who will be taking the “Sketchy” title. Will Kyle still be known as Sketchy Carl or will Big Boy be adding the Sketchy title to his name? It all comes down to this Game of BIKE and things get HEATED. Check out what went down and who took the win!

“Bike is one of our favorite games here in the channel. For some reason we always love to see big boy vs people because he never backs down from the challenge and tries anything. We have sketchy Carl vs the Big Boy, Carl is really good on a bike with a heavy trick list. Big Boy has been getting better and better so they are playing for the sketchy nick name. Who do think will win in the battle for the sketchy name!”
