Hit play and feel the pain!

Colony – Marcel Gans Lost ‘N Found

Leave a Comment

Freedom BMX released this fresh edit featuring Colony‘s German connect Marcel Gans throwing down on a bunch of parks. This footage spans the past few years and is a real solid watch from start to finish. Marcel brings a good mix of tricks, speed and style to the table. Take a look!

“Marcel Gans’ motto in life is clearly visible on his helmet: Have fun, ride bikes! In addition, there should actually be another sticker with only one word on it: BALLERS! The German Colony driver is a fan of high speeds, which in turn entails a lot of airtime, as you can see in his new video. Alone the sentence about the hip in the bowl of the Cologne North Brigade at 1:58. Boy, boy, boy!

It doesn’t matter that most of the photos were taken three to four years ago, because good BMX riding is and will remain timeless. It is a pity, however, that some clips have been lost over time for various reasons. Well, VX Life is not always easy.

Fortunately, some of the material was saved and / or found. At this point, thanks go to David Schaller and Felix Prangenberg. But the best thing to do is take a look at the whole thing for yourself. We are definitely excited and are already looking forward to the next two video projects from Marcel, which should drop this year. YEWW!
