Caliwumpus – Alex Raban Section

April 2, 2012

Check out Alex Raban’s awesome section from the Caliwumpus video. Give this guy anything to ride and he’ll drop something good on it.

“I think we all know that Alex shreds his bike, but sometimes I feel like people don’t know really how good he is. The things I have seen him do not even filming sometimes don’t make sense to me. For example the feeble bar spin in this part on the square rail. He fired it out without even mentioning filming. If it wasn’t for Alex there is a good chance I would have never made a vide, and if I tried I doubt it ever would have happened. When I would fuck something up, he would try to tell me without telling me… Alex is a shredder and a great human being. Its a quality that isn’t often found in people anymore and I am very happy that I can call Alex a friend. I have a lot of thanks to give him for all the help he did on this project. Thanks my friend, your the man!” – Brandon Eckles

Brandon Eckles is the man behind the Caliwumpus DVD and it also turns out he had one of the best sections in the video. At least his section was one of my favorites. Check it!

Caliwumpus – Sasquatch Canyon Mix Section

“I love going up to Santa Cruz and riding with Jackson, Mike and the rest of my friends from the woods. The vibe up there is awesome and everyone is just happy to ride and hang out. My idea for this section came a little late in the video but the Yeti clan was able to pull it off and I think that this section came out really good. Apperances from Jackson Allen, Mike Hernanzed, Ryan Nyquist, Jeff Murphy, Jordan Murdock, and more.

The other day I got an email from Alex and I realized it has been a minute since I had talked to the guy. I heard he was in a pretty crazy car accident recently, and I knew he had a ton of projects from a part in the new Caliwumpus DVD to filming for a bunch of projects with his sponsors. I figured it would be a good time to get a little update from Alex. Let’s see what the guy has been up to lately…

Caliwumpus – No Dickin’ Around Trailer

“The video is done! Damn I never imagined how much work making a video would be and as happy as I am for it to be done I am sad at the same time. Looking back I remember how much fun it was doing this project and all the good times had. I also remember how stressful it could be at the same time especially finishing the video and having finals for school at the same time. Were not re-inventing BMX or inventing new tricks but we are always having fun. Whether or not you’re into the riding you will defiantly have a laugh or two. Guaranteed.

The DVD is a full-length video with full sections from Jay Perry, Trevor Roland, Brandon Eckles, and Alex Raban. The video also features a Sasquatch Canyon/Santa Cruz mix section and other mix sections including Conor Caron, Matt Gillot, Victor Galindo, Steve Lopez, Matt Lupello, Matt Stiles, Steven Ted Anzel, Chase Millar, Cameron DeHaas, Jackson Allen, Mike Hernandez, Ryan Nyquist, Jeff Murphy, Anthony Quiroz, Alec Hugo, Cody Bowers, Danny Griffith, Dustin Jones, Martin Etcheverry, Nick Harry, Nelson Pulido, Kyle Walker, Shawn Warren, Shea Weidler, Chet Weidner, Ryan Fowler, Andy Maguire, Jordan Murdock.
