Here’s one we thought we posted up the other day, but apparently it slipped through the cracks! The PA Woods crew put out a fresh batch of clips that they collected over the course of the summer from the trails sessions that went down. As always, the lines were looking dialed and there was no shortage of guys out there enjoying every second of it. Hit play and check out what went down!
Game of S-C-O-T-T-Y
Big Boy, Matty Cranmer and the rest of the crew have cooked up another new game to keep things interesting! This time around they play a game of Team S-C-O-T-T-Y where one of the riders on the team has to do the trick that is inside of the random balloon that pops! This gets real interesting with some of the other rules, so hit play and check out what went down!
“New little game we came up with. Put a trick in the balloon, pop the ballon and do whatever trick is in the balloon with the people on your team. First person to spell Scotty wins!

Anthony Panza On Merritt + Video Bike Check
Anthony Panza has joined the Merritt squad! To celebrate, he dialed in his bike with a bunch of new Merritt parts on his Cult SOS Too Short and then proceeded to put it to good use at one of his local skateparks. Hit play to check out the bike and the riding clips! Looks like a dialed BMX bike to us!
“As of 2017 I will now be riding for Merritt (parts), as well as Cult. In this video I built up a new bike in record time for myself. Wrapped it up at my local skate park (Tanner park) with a few clips I self filmed. Wanna give a shout out to Mike Brennan for giving me this opportunity to represent the brand full of riders I genuinely enjoy being around, and also Robbie Morales for holding it down over the years. Very stoked for the future! For those who were curious why I haven’t put out content lately, now you’re aware. No worries, more videos coming soon!”
Blind Trip – Kevin Kalkoff & Thomas Benedetti In Croatia
This is a pretty cool concept. DIG and Soul teamed up for a unique trip they sent Kevin Kalkoff and Thomas Benedetti on. Neither ride knew where they were going, but found out they were on the way to Croatia once they got to the airport. Here’s a video giving you a look at what both of these guys stacked for clips during their visit! Although they had no time to plan and possibly scope out some spots early, they didn’t appear to have any trouble coming across spots!
“We’re always proud to support likeminded BMX media people out there so we’re more than happy to announce long time Gallic print bothers Soul as our official DIG media partner for France. Check out our first collaborative release with them below and be sure to go and check out their all new online direction at http://soulbmxmag.com
There’ll be lots of DIG X SOUL projects to come but meantime check out what their editor Ben Bello had to say about the first ever Soul Blind Trip in conjunction with Monster Energy.
“It’s one of those idea that makes you smile when you come up with it, but also one of those idea that complicates your life because you will never give up on making it a reality. The idea was simple and challenging: take a rider on a trip to a city never knowingly visited by Pro riders, and announce the destination when we bring the rider to the airport; just for the pleasure of seeing his face when he learns the news. We chose France’s Kevin Kalkoff (Vans) for this first episode, told him he was going on trip, and gave him nothing more than the date. To add some brotherhood we also invited his brother Thomas Benedetti (Haro/eclat)to surprise him by joining the tour. Both discovered their destination to be SPLIT, in Croatia, a beautiful city on the Adriatic coast with many spots in the surroundings.” – Ben Bello / http://soulbmxmag.com/

Shadow Conspiracy – Matt Ray Welcome to the Pro Team
Here’s one we knew that we would be seeing eventually when Matt Ray joined The Shadow Conspiracy. Matt has been given the bump on up to the Pro team and he’s kicking things off with an absolute BANGER of a BMX video. Matt is capable of absolutely shredding everything that is put in front of him and he’s no stranger to putting his deep bag of tricks to good use on every one of those spots. Hit play to have your mind absolutely blown by what he cooked up for this one. Absolute MUST SEE.
“Sit down, strap in, and get ready to have your mind blown! Shadow rider Matt Ray’s Welcome to the Pro Team edit is here and it is CRAZY!
After getting the bump in January, Matt set out to put together the best Welcome edit he could manage before it was properly announced to the world. From his hometown of Boston to all over Europe, no spot was left unshredded. Matt’s dedication to his riding and to the Shadow team is incredible and we couldn’t have asked for a better member of the crew. Congratulations dude! You deserve it!

Now THIS is what we call a GOOD TIME. The official video from this years Money For Trick contest at the Skatepark of Malaga in Spain gives you a look at all the action and good times that went down throughout the day and the madness at the after party!

Also, check out the Money For Trick 2016 Photogallery!
“With 200 registered from all corners of the country and other parts of Europe like UK, grece, Germany or France, “Rubén Alcántara” Skatepark climbed their slat once more… With one of the best bowls of the world, the level in this discipline was unbeatable, people as “Juanillo” from Chile destroyed them minds doing a whip in a 7 mts transfer ,winning 200€ as Best Trick. The “follow me” of Sergio Layos, Kevin Kalkoff and Greg Illingworth left certainly speechless to the public with its incredible airs. After a very cold Monster began the new of this year, the M.O.R.(Money Obstacles race) the truth is that had great acceptance from the riders and that achieved its goal… Disconnecting a little tricks and having fun!! Cristian Toledo made the best time with 11, 37seconds taking 100€!
Then at dirt continued stressing the flow with Miguel Cuesta to the head, as a result took their € 200 for Best Style, some spectacular tricks as 360 Seatgrab Indian’s “juanillo” also did we skip surprised. The Street was savage, many riders wanting to give it all, so we had to make 4 groups to ride well… Courage Adams or Jason Eustathiou certainly is carried several 5€ thanks to its softness and flow. The Canary Javi Castilla won other €200 with the best creativity with a oppo tooth to crank 360… The public was happier than ever with the amount of awards which are pulled from the Truck… over €1000 in stuff like Vans Shoes a United frames/ bars, Oakley Sunglasses or polaroid cameras just by upload a photo on Instagram… And the after party… to say that there are still people’s Party, says it is all!
One more year whith the REAL bmx atmosphere… The event never would have been possible without the unconditional support of Monster Energy and the collaboration of UnitedBMX, Vans, Oakley, BMXUnion and Wallride Mag.
