The latest BMX Videos, Products and News!
The new Vinyl BMX DVD that Tom Arkus has been working on will be premiering on March 2nd at the new Wheel Mill Park. The party starts at 6 and runs till 9. The park won’t be open, but you’re more than welcome to bring some beer and get loose watching this video. All proceeds from the DVD sales that night will go towards materials for the park, so if you’re in the area I’d advise you make it to this! Below is a re-up of the trailer that came out a little while back for the video.
CJ Arnold tears up a bunch of street spots, parks and trails around Northern California for this new S&M Bikes edit. You won’t be disappointed if you hit play on this one!
If you live near Rad BMX Shop in the U.K, make your way there on February 13th for your chance to hang out and ride with Nathan Williams and Ben Lewis! Sounds like a good time to me.
I think it’s fair to say this is more of a 540 Double Tailwhip to Footjam… but I’ll let Logan Martin decide for himself. Either way, this is absolutely insane.
Everything about this edit is good. Sebastion Anton comes through with some dialed riding on some real good spots and Ben Francke did a real good job with the filming and editing. Check it out!

Benedikt Bagger caught up with TSG‘s newest recruit, Kevin Liehn, for some riding time at his local indoor park. Kevin brings a ton of damn good riding to this one so check it out!

This instalment of our FIRSTS series with media guys in the BMX game is with none other than Fat Tony. Fat has been living the dream and changing his game for a good deal of years now, and shows no sign of letting up. I distinctly recall his package of photos with Terry Adams landing on my old desk back in the old magazine days, and we just knew we had to blow out the article as big as possible – the selection of images with Terry were definitely not your typical set of photos, and it was one of the most photogenic articles we ran back in the heydays of the mag. Shortly after that, he started working full-time at Ride BMX in Southern California and the rest is history – “I started learning to shoot proper photos around 2004, and started getting published in 2005. Then I started working at Ride in June 2006.”
So what is Fat Tony up to now? “Nowadays I am working for myself full time. I do a lot of video production for Alli Sports. I am also the BMX team manager for Freegun Underwear in the US, so I do photos and videos for them. Most of my photo work these days comes from contests. For example: I’ll go to X Games and shoot for Fox, Monster, Mongoose, and DC Shoes so they all have photos for their web sites and social networks, then I’ll sell individual photos from the event to brands like DK and Specialized for catalogs, ads, etc. And I am also starting to announce contests and demos… on camera and microphone stuff.”
Busy times indeed. Let’s find out how he started in all this, and rewind the clock with Fat’s own FIRSTS.
Check out this rad edit from a trip that Mike “Hucker” Clark, Drew Bezanson, Zak Earley, Josh Clemens and Ronnie Napolitan took last summer to the Northwest for some riding, camping and good times for GoPro. This looks like it was such an awesome trip. Check it out… Oh, and they even bumped into Chase Hawk for a few clips too.
