Vans BMX Street Invitational 2016 – First Practice

June 23, 2016

The Vans BMX Street Invitational is going down this weekend and it looks like Chad Kerley, Nathan Williams, Dakota Roche, Bruno Hoffmann, Calvin Kosovich, Corey Martinez, Alex Donnachie and a few others have arrived and started cruising the park to see what they can dial in for lines for the contest. Hit play to check out just a few clips from what went down. We can only imagine that this contest will be nothing short of awesome.

“The vibe today was mellow with just over half of the 20 riders set to ride in the first ever Vans BMX Street Invitational on course. And, with a very open practice schedule (a good thing) of 9am-6pm, the dudes were pretty spread out. So I kept it the same and simply put together a quick-hit chronological cut of what I filmed over the four hours I was there. Sorry about the wind noise; apparently my little wind sock can’t handle high-speed lines. But enough of my little excuses…it’s quite obvious that this event is gonna be dope. If you’re within driving distance of Huntington Beach, then you should be at the Vans park this Saturday. So be there…or at least hit us up for full coverage, yeah?” – Ride BMX

Eclat – Bruno Hoffmann Predator Tire Promo

June 14, 2016

It’s always a good day when a fresh Bruno Hoffmann BMX video surfaces online! Eclat just released this new promo video featuring Bruno putting his signature Predator Tires to good use! Amazing spots along with plenty of grinds and freecoaster action. Bruno brings the heat once again. Hit play and enjoy, then learn all about the tires right here!

“When Bruno Hoffmann came to us with an idea for a tire, we knew this was going to be one tough set of rubber built for the streets.

The ‘Predator Tire’ was build from Bruno’s need for a super tough, dependable tire that not only gripped like nothing else, but was also strong enough on the sidewalls to last heavy flat ledge sessions and resist the trauma that his blend of technical and burly riding can cause to a tire.

Constructed using the finest quality materials possible, the Predator Tire will be available in Bruno’s preferred size of 2.30” (58mm), which is what he considers “the perfect size” for street riding.

Available now worldwide in Black and Desert Tan, with more colours coming later this Summer…

Filmed by Felix Lukas.”

ILLUSTRATED is about paving your own path; a unique ride through life, both on and off the bike. With style, precision and drama at every turn, each rider demonstrates their own chosen direction as they journey across the globe establishing their craft as creators of one truly original art form. In the end, we are graced with a showcase of cinematic adventures, written in scratches and skid marks on walls and rails around the world.

To learn more about the video, tour dates, locations and ticket information visit Vans.com/ILLUSTRATED.

BMX riders adopted Vans in the late ‘60s because of their reliable construction and rugged waffle outsole. The “Off The Wall” philosophy of BMX led to Vans signing on the first officially sponsored BMX athletes in history, Bob Haro and Greg Hill. Decades later, Vans’ checkerboard flag continues to be a global mainstay in BMX and the first in the sport and as the leader in BMX footwear and apparel.”
