I honestly never would have taken Sean Sexton for a golfer. Talk about a curveball. Either way, for Sean’s “Off the Clock” ad for Kink they decided to go with a golf theme to show you that secret side we never would have know! Check out the behind the scenes video above, then check out the final ad along with more behind the scenes photos RIGHT HERE

Dakota Roche – Both Sides of the Lens
There’s a really interesting interview with Dakota Roche up on the DIG BMX website about his film work, how he looks at filming from a riders perspectives, the VX and thoughts about filming after his riding career. It’s definitely worth a look!
Red Bull – Ride and Seek: Open Air
Maybe it’s because I’ve been getting more and more into motorcycles lately or if it’s just because this series is going to be absolutely stacked, but I’m pumped about this Red Bull Ride and Seek series dropping. Check out part one which introduces you to the plan and a bit of a bio on Corey Martinez!
“In the season premiere of Ride and Seek, Corey Martinez talks about how his passion for riding started, his family life and past adventures. Stay along for the journey as Corey Martinez and friends take a trip to ride, camp and enjoy the open air.“
Lake Jump
Anthony Laconte just sent through this rad video he put together from some of the lake jumping sessions they’ve been getting on Lake Michigan this summer! This honestly looks amazing right now since it’s going to be a hot one here today!
“It’s a wild and fun scene here in Chicago. Winters are miserable and so are the summers. As BMX riders, we have to find ways of using the weather to our advantage.
A group of BMX friends have made it summer tradition to launch their bikes off a homemade kicker at North Ave beach. Many riders around the area look forward to this Sunday sunrise session.
I finally made it out to one of these awesome get togethers and documented the fun that was had. I’m glad I went with on this day because these guys made a jump they’ve been planning for a while. We were limited to one jump because of severity of the premisis, but Alex Bedoya sent one and boy was it a good one! (last clip)
