House Park 2015
There’s no denying that by now you have probably seen countless videos from House Park in Austin, Texas. That’s not a bad thing either because every time there is something new and unseen that has gone down. Check out this 5 minute edit packed full of some amazing riding from some of Austin’s finest and a few of the visitors that have rolled through lately! This is one hell of a BMX video!
“House Park has become the new go to spot in Austin. You can always expect to see some random pro there shredding. Legit Austin local Devon Hutchins has been on hand during the first seven months of 2015 and collected this awesome footage featuring Tom Dugan, Lucas Dartford, Chase Hawk, Aaron Ross, Evan Smedley, Clint Reynolds, Josh Dissinger, Darryl Tocco, Jason Watts, and even Tony Cardona. Make sure you keep watching all the way through for that Cardona gold.” – DIG BMX

2015 Van Doren Invitational Practice – Day 1
What happens when you drop a ton of guys like Chase Hawk, Greg Illingworth, Dean Cueson, Dan Foley, Maxime Charveron, Matt Roe, Larry Edgar, Kris Fox, Tom Dugan, Scotty Cranmer and a handful more of BMX’s best bowl riders (and let’s be real, most stylish) in for a session together? Amazing riding goes down. Take a look at what went down during the first day of practice for this years Van Doren Invitational in California! This contest is going to be nuts!
“Being on the deck at the 2015 Van Doren Invitational is a bit nuts… It’s essentially the most stacked bowl session of the century (with 30 of the best bowl riders in the world), and everyone has just a single hour heat to figure shit out. They somehow do figure shit out, and the result is a mixture of flowy speed, style, and tricks… Major shoutout to Larry Edgar and the triple tabletop in here, more to come tomorrow.

Chase Hawk – Long Story Short
DIG caught up with the one and only Chase Hawk to talk about the start of his career going on the Fit Puerto Rico trip with a bunch of legends and getting his ass kicked around by them since he was the new guy on up to today where he’s working on his Etnies “Chapters” part and more! Definitely a rad watch, so get on that play button and take it all in!
“To kick off our new Long Story Short original series we have one of the best to do it: Chase Hawk. Maybe BMX’s finest example of the idealized rider, we’ve been glued to whatever Chase has put out since he come into the spotlight years ago as a teen.
We sat Chase down a while ago and asked him about the transition he’s seen in his life over the last decade both on and off a bike. Certainly much has changed from an outsider’s perspective. Here we present the passage of time from Chase’s view.”
