Animal – Chris Silva 2014 Edit

September 3, 2014

Check out this brand new one of Chris Silva for Animal Bikes! As always, Chris comes through with some unique and creative riding! Hell yeah!

“Chris Silva came through big-time by hitting us up with his latest joint for Animal. The dude is a true street rider… always cruising around and tinkering with interesting set-ups that he happens to come across. Chris is also holding down the pegless handrail game, something you don’t see as much these days with the popularity of 4-peg technical combos. Toronto, Canada offers some interesting spots and Chris handles biz.

“Basically the edit is a bunch of clips I was sitting on through 2012/13/14, haha. I sit on footage for a long time… Just stuff filmed while rolling around by whoever was there to film it, that’s how it happened.” – Chris Silva

Song: The Monkees- You and I
Filmers: Chase Davidson, Chijioke Okafo, Chris Cadot, Charlie Crumlish, Michael Baker, Peter Dai, George Carijutan.” – Ride BMX

Chris came across a handful of full pipes and curved walls along with a bunch of rails and other spots for him to have his way with for this one! It’s also crazy because this was all filmed on cell phones between 2012 and 2013!

Chris Silva and the Animal Axle Nuts

April 17, 2014

Coming up with this intro is a little tricky… Chris Silva is a Canandian BMX legend regardless if he wants to believe it or not. Over the years, Chris has destroyed A LOT of rails all over with and without the help of his pegs. Although grinding without pegs seems damn near impossible, he does it.
Some of you older riders out there will remember the classic Primo “Jewel” axle nuts that were essentially axle nuts that were rounded off to work more like pegs back in the day. Thanks to this little invention, it helped and inspired Chris to push the limits of his grinding abilities and helped make him into that legend we were talking about above that he is today.
A few months back when I was talking with Chris, he had mentioned that he was working on something with Animal Bikes that he was really psyched on. After bugging him a bit, he let the cat out of the bag that they were developing a newer, better, Chris Silva signature version of the Jewel axle nuts that would be coming out this summer.
There was no way we couldn’t find out more, so we got Chris to talk about these axle nuts (don’t call them a peg!) and the history of what lead to today. Let’s see what he had to say!
