The latest BMX Videos, Products and News!
Spotted this gem over on Can You Dig It. Check out this video Kyle Hibbard put together of him and the Endwell guys getting some time in at their trails along with some of Pennsylvania’s finest. So good!
“An edit showing some of the good times we had on some trips we took this summer. I was really enjoying the sounds of the tires/woods so I decided to skip the music and keep it simple.” – Kyle Hibbard
It doesn’t sound like the Lifer BMX crew had much luck actually getting to Motion Ramp Park, but it does look like they were lucky enough to stack a ton of awesome clips from the day for this new edit. Check it!
“Here’s the first in a series of edits that Extreme will be making with Lifer BMX. We planned to spend the day at Motion to get some clips of the team riding but a day soon turned into a few hours after what would have normally been a simple two hour drive soon turned into a five hour mission after becomng stuck in traffic and then a 80 mph blow out on the M5 left us on the side of the road.
Once finally making it to Motion the guys didn’t hang about and made the most of the park.
Hope you enjoy!

Typically when I shoot photos these days it’s for a specific purpose. Either for a print project, an ESPN feature, something for my column, something for an ad, catalog or anything else a company might need photos for etc. In some cases though I have shot photos over the years that never end up going anywhere but my hard drive. Typically it’s just that they become leftovers and aren’t needed at the moment. Other reasons include riders changing sponsors. For example, if you shoot a rider that is wearing a pair of Etnies and then they get sponsored by Vans you can’t really do anything with the photo of them wearing the Etnies anymore. It sucks but that’s just how it works. Either way though, that is why I love doing this column because I have complete creative control meaning that I get to finally give some of these photos a home and give them a bit of shine-time.
Here’s an interesting video that just popped up in the inbox. There’s a new creative production studio in France that just fired up called Welded Studio that looks to be focused on doing a ton of creative productions and they’re starting off with a series of BMX videos. Check out this unique new video they did with Matthias Dandois and Vans called “Dust”. Expect more from these guys soon.
“For the launch of Welded Studio, we are introducing creative series inspired by bmx.
Vans becomes our Partner for the production of four video / photo series that stage bmx riders in an original manner or with unexpected objects.
We are honoured to feature in this collaboration first opus, named « Dust », Mr. Matthias Dandois who played the game. And, with his legendary smile as a cherry on top of the cake, he truly played the game with Thibault Grevet (video) and Vincent Perraud (photo).”
Oh… my… god… I knew Alex Hiam was working on a new edit for himself, but DAMN I did not expect this bombshell. Check out Alex absolutely MURDERING in this new Colony edit. Wow.

DAMN! This video that Proper Bike Co. dropped is absolutely PHENOMENAL. Everything about this is so good. The riding, the filming and editing, the song and overall vibe of the entire video. I advise you check this out!
“We started trying to compile a ‘best of’ 2012 edit but discovered a ton of unused clips and ended up with this……a true mixtape with clips from Amsterdam, Lille, Porto, Paris, Bilbao, and various UK spots.
Featuring (in order of appearance); Shaun Jinks, Max Wood, Jamie Guile, Janis Cunculis, Joris Coulomb, Mike Miller, Gav Shortall, and Sam Cunningham.
These will be the last clips on Proper for Joris and also Gav Shortall.
Gav has been on the team since before Megatour 5 (2006) but has been concentrating more and more on his studies studies recently. We wish there was a few words to wrap up Gavin as a rider/person but there isn’t so we’ll keep it simple. Thanks Gav – see you soon.
Thanks to Janis Cunculis, Sam Cunningham and Clark Thurman for helping out shooting clips!
Song: “People can do the most amazing things – Kisses””
