The 4:19 Project

Damn… This is serious. The 4:19 Project is a tribute to Dane Searls and a mission to build one of the most insane courses and jumps BMX has ever seen. Nick Cooper and Robbie Stewart have been busting their ass off just to train to be able to handle what they’re planning on doing. This video gives you everything from the inspiration to the planning, training and expectations. All I know is this is going to be nuts and I’m sure Dane is hyped.

“This is the future of BMX Dirt jumping. Big, badass dirt jumps for BMX. Keep it dirt, stay true to your roots and keep it real.”
