I was wondering when Ride was going to drop their video from Texas Toast Street Finals! Here’s a ton of bangers from the likes of Garrett Reynolds, Dennis Enarsson, Simone Barraco, Trey Jones, Greg Illingworth and many, many more!
Mike Saavedra Medical Fund
Just spotted some news over on Can You Dig It that needs to get spread. A little over two weeks ago, Mike Saavedra broke his leg REALLY bad and has undergone a few surgeries to get things back together. Needless to say, the medical expenses piled up quickly and there is a GoFundMe setup to help raise some cash to help him out! If you got a few bucks to spare, please donate or at least pass the news along! Thanks!
“At the beginning of October I suffered a serious injury while riding trails in PA by rolling my left leg under my bike after slipping a pedal. I was taken to UMPC in Pittsburgh and treated for a severe break of the tibial and fibula. I was rushed into emergency surgery. Due to the intense level of swelling the doctors we’re capable of diagnosing Compartment Syndrome early on and we’re successful in saving my leg.
After 18 long days in the hospital, 1 titanium rod and 3 procedures later, I am finally getting released today. But not without a long road of recovery ahead. Due to the level of trauma my leg sustained from such a high energy impact I will be required to receive months of follow-up care.
I turn to the BMX community and ask for your support. Rather it’s monetary or good vibes and positive thoughts all is welcome and greatly appreciated.
I look forward to the journey ahead with a new appreciation and perspective for the simple things. . .” – GoFundMe

Business X Northern Embassy Toronto Trip
The Bussiness and Northern Embassy crews teamed up once again for their annual voyage! This time around the crew got down on the streets of Toronto where they stacked a ton of clips on some awesome spots for this new video! Hit play because it doesn’t disappoint!
“This year for our annual Business trip we decided to head to Toronto, with the plan of stacking some clips for Business 2. We ended up having an incredibly productive trip so decided to put together this video of the time we had and release it on the web. I’m stoked on our crew for killing it riding and partying, one of my favourite trips to date. Don’t forget to check the gallery of disposables we shot during the trip.
Enjoy!” – Northern Embassy
Texas Toast 2014 – Highest Hop Contest
Broc Raiford has been holding the highest bunnyhop title for quite some time now… It looks like this year he had a bit of a challenge for himself at Texas Toast this year! Take a look and see how it all unfolded! … That’s a lottttta pop.
“The High Hop contest at Texas Toast this year was rediculous. From Kyle Hart sending fastplants over it, to Broc Raiford winning with no seat, let alone the fact that the whole bar was almost to small! Both Broc and Brett Silva cleared the 48 inch slot, so the bar was then rested on top of the whole structure in one last attempt to push the limits… I still think Broc could’ve cleared more.” – Ride BMX
Scott Powell – Security Cam 2
Can’t go wrong with some fresh Scott Powell footage! Check out this new one we spotted on Flat Matters from some of the summer sessions his house’s security camera setup caught! That’s what I call putting it to good use!
“During the summer sessions I captured over 100 tricks and combos with my camera system. Here are a few of the clips that I thought was worth a second look…
filmed July 2014-Sept 2014”
Jordan O’Kane Park Edit
Check out this new one of Jordan O’Kane getting some time in at the 4Down warehouse ramps and the Boyley Forever park in Hastings, England! This edit is packed with tons of grinds, bars, whips and some heavy drops to flat that will make your knees quiver.
BMX Lagos de Moreno
Although it seemed like everyone in BMX was at the Texas Toast Jam this past weekend, there were still other rad events going on!
