Scotty Cranmer – Skatepark Straight to the Hospital

June 20, 2016

Scotty Cranmer was sitting on some footage from a few weeks back from a full day of bad news bears. This starts out with a flat tire on his car and then it gets pretty bloody, followed up by a trip to the hospital. Apparently Scotty had a bit of a bad luck streak since he also made a trip to the hospital when he broke a bone in his back at X Games. There’s no avoiding injuries when it comes to BMX since it’s bound to happen at some point.

“-Filmed right before X Games- Well I guess they were right when they said “When it rains, it pours!” because today I just seem to have the worst luck ever! Start the day off with a flat tire on my brand new 2016 Subaru WRX STI then we drive 45 minutes to a skatepark only to fall 20 minutes into the session and I slice my wrist open and need stitches! It was a scary situation being so close to my arteries so we had no choice but to take the cut serious and get to the hospital ASAP! At the hospital they ended up giving me 6 stitches and that pretty much put the cherry on the top of a terrible day!”

“The crew met up at my skatepark to hold our first Skatepark Relay Race! 3 teams of 2 riders stepped up to the starting line to see who is the dream team when it comes to freestyle BMX racing! Team Tatted featuring Cory Berglar & BK all day, Team Winnering featuring Matty Cranmer & Big Boy and team Let’s Get It! featuring Vinny Mannino & new comer Mike Fede! But in true channel fashion, this wasn’t your normal race! This was a relay race that involved 2 individual laps around the skatepark and then a team effort on the 1970’s Tandem! That’s when things got really interesting! I had so much fun watching the guys battle it out and I am so excited for my back to heal so I can get involved!” – Scotty Cranmer

Scotty Cranmer – 3 Dudes, 1 Game of B-I-K-E

June 8, 2016

Here’s a fresh game of B-I-K-E for your viewing pleasure! Hit play to watch Matty Cranmer, Cory Berglar and Big Boy go to work to see who can take the win. You already know this is going to get interesting!

“We all met up at Jackson skatepark to play a Game Of Bike! Matty Cranmer vs BIG BOY vs Cory “puppy arms” Berglar! The game started off with us checking out Big Boy’s new haircut which gives him a striking resemblance to Simple Jack from Tropic Thunder! So we quoted the movie as often as we could! Then Cory forgot his helmet so Matty shared his helmet with him in between turns! Then Cory’s bad luck continued when he got a flat tire on a half cab so instead of forfeiting he decided to borrow Matty’s bike as well! So the game came down to the wire and all the dudes were absolutely killing it! But my favorite part was when Dylan hopped on Big Boy’s shoulders and they decided to ride around the skatepark until Dylan fell off and nearly ripped Big Boy’s nose off! It was an awesome day!” – Scotty Cranmer

Scotty Cranmer – X Games 2016: Day 6

June 5, 2016

Scotty Cranmer wrapping up his X Games series for you guys. Here’s a little look at how his day went down from waking up to a super painful trip to the hospital after a ROUGH slam during his run to lead to a broken back. Luckily he should be okay! Hit play and take it all in!

“Our last day of the 2016 summer X Games was definitely not what I expected. We started the day off with rain once again. So we drove from the hotel to the Circuit Of Americas with hopes of a break in weather and to our surprise the course was dry! We started a hectic full practice where I saw 3 near collisions on course and before i even got a chance to drop in the rain began again! The course was soaked and I helped clear off the puddles to get the contest started before the rain started again. As the contest began all the riders started sending some insane tricks so i knew i had to bring my A game! I dropped in and had an amazing start to my run and I did a backflip double tail whip over the box and as i landed on my backwheel and braced myself to rely on the brake to correct my position my brakes snapped and i looped out insanely hard on my butt. It hurt so bad and i couldn’t breathe no matter how hard i tried.. Finally after 2 minutes i got my wind back and I made my way back to the medical tent where i realized just how hurt i really was.. I jumped in the EMS vehicle and they took me to the hospital for evaluation. I was in a lot of pain so they did a CT scan and that showed a grade 1 compression fracture in my T8 vertebrae so yes I broke my back riding Xgames.. I never thought that I would ever be able to say that and it’s crazy to think just how lucky I actually am to be able to walk away from this scary crash. I am so bummed and frustrated about the crash because I wasn’t at fault because of my riding I crashed because my bike broke on me.. Such a crumby X games for me but still i had such an amazing time and I am already excited for next year!”
