Mr. Bikes N Boards – Candyland Take Over

June 24, 2015

Now THIS is what a proper BMX jam looks like! Chad DeGroot and the Mr. Bikes N Boards locals hit up the Candyland skatepark for a full day of riding and good times! Check out this highlight reel packed full of great riding. This will probably make you a little jealous you weren’t there!

“Even without amazing skateparks or street spots, the scene in Central Florida continues thrive and grow due to the amount of support from all of the local riders. Each month, the crew at Mr. Bikes N Boards in Longwood, FL. organizes an event in a random location with a couple Subrosa Brand Street Rails in tow. This months stop landed us at our local pre fab, Candyland. We took over the park, tossed out prizes and chugged Red Alert sodas. HUGE thank you to all the riders that support what we do and for making the effort to come out. Look forward to seeing every one at the next jam!. A big thanks goes out to the local brands who help make these events possible, The Shadow Conspiracy, Deco BMX, Subrosa Brand, Sparkys Distribution, Profile Racing, and of course Mr. Bikes N Boards!

Deco – Chad Degroot GBASO Session

June 18, 2015

Chad DeGroot recently spent some time up in Wisconsin where he was able to film a bunch of footage. Yesterday we got a video from the session he got in at a backyard ramp setup, now today we get another BMX video, this time from the Green Bay Skatepark. Chad is always cooking up some unique lines, and this

“Tight trannies with tons of wedges is right up my alley. Was at Green Bay indoor park @gbaso visiting family and also in Appleton doing a skatepark grand opening getting some riding in with my son and the locals. Indoor parks are real crazy to see these days so we had to support Green Bays finest park and give it a wedge 360 to fakie then fakie on the tight quarter to slider cause I love sliding. Also down them steps like a backwards hang 5 firecracker” -Chad DeGroot / DECO BMX

Deco – Chad DeGroot Appleton Backyard Session

June 17, 2015

Here’s a short but sweet BMX video Deco dropped from a session that Chad DeGroot, along with BACO’s Mark Hilson and Mark Fluette, got in at a backyard ramp setup in Appleton, Wisconsin! This spot looks like a full on skatepark! Take a look.

““Being in Appleton Wisconsin for the revamped Telulah skatepark which I would call my local and go-to park since it was only 30 minutes away from Green Bay. They tore out the old and put in an updated park which you will see soon enough. But how could we just ride that park when good friend Dave Freimuth wanted our crew to session a private park he built in the outskirts for some friends. So.. with open arms we had a great session at one of Dave’s creations for a skater who wants to ride with bikes. His mom, Brenda, welcomed all our kids to a swimming and a night on their turf. I would rather keep the rest private but we had a blast and before the sun went down @chrisrye got a few clips of me laying some tire marks on a gem of a private backyard. Also featured are Mark Hilson and Mark Fluette.”

Chad DeGroot – Daytona Skatepark

May 8, 2015

Here’s a short but sweet one featuring Chad DeGroot getting some riding in at the Daytona Skatepark. One thing we’re always stoked about when Chad puts out a new BMX video, is the riding is always unique and different than what we see every day. Hit play and enjoy!

“Been riding so much flatland lately and had visions of trying some tricks I have not done in awhile but on my flat machine at the park. Namely the tail whip from the back pegs. First did this in 2006 so today was the day to make it happen again. I was not taking NO for an answer or leave with my tail between my legs. Early bird got the worm. Pulled three of them today and that made my day. Made my month. Could not leave Daytona park without riding the rest of the place and my flat bike felt so good. Thanks to @profileracing @decobmx #decobmx #profileZcoaster Full video from this day on the DECOBMX09 Youtube channel” -Chad DeGroot @chaddegroot

Bikes Over Baghdad 2015 – Middle East Troops BMX Demos

April 17, 2015

Chad DeGroot just hit us up with a video he put together from the Bikes Over Baghdad trip he took. This is 14 minutes of footage from demos they did and some of the antics they got into off their bikes! All around, it looks like it was a real good time and the troops had a hell of a good time, too!

“April 2015 crew of BMX riders went to the middle east to undisclosed locations in Southwest Asia and Africa to entertain the troops for 15 days. Here is a small sample of what went on, how the troops reacted, how the crew entertained themselves, and bringing BMX to the Middle east in the big sandbox.
