I don’t believe all good things must come to an end, I do believe that we as people grow mentally and emotionally to follow our heart. It comes with a great deal of emotions to say that I’ve decided to part ways with @Volumebikes This wasn’t an overnight or irrational decision for me. I’ve been adjusting to this change for the past couple months and today is my last day with the company. I’m thankful to have been with Volume for the past six plus years. In that time I was able to achieve a lot of goals that I set for myself. Just so it’s clear, I did not leave Volume for another company and I did not leave Volume because of money. I feel that my time with Volume has ran its course. Thank you @briancastillo and La for giving me this opportunity. Thank you for believing in me and investing in me. I wish nothing but the best for Volume bikes. #volumebikes #vlm #warhorseline ? @mikemastroni

Here’s some news we definitely did not see coming! Demarcus Paul has decided to step down from the Volume Bikes team after a little over 6 years with the brand! It sounds like it was a decision Demarcus took without any sort of plan or motive beyond just feeling like his time with the brand had come to an end. Although Demarcus doesn’t appear to have any set plans, we can only imagine it won’t be long before he has some offers and potentially a new deal since he’s still riding amazing and crushing it as always. It’s always a bummer hearing about sponsor changes like this, but hopefully it opens a door up for another rider on Volume and gives Demarcus a fresh perspective and motivation to keep pushing his riding!

Lockdown – Garrett Reynolds, Demarcus Paul & Nathan Williams

April 1, 2020

Everything might be shut down, but that hasn’t shut the sessions down completely. Here’s a raw cut of footage featuring Garrett Reynolds, Demarcus Paul, Nathan Williams and a few others out cruising some empty schools and street spots! It’s wild how empty the streets are.

“Parks are shutdown, schools are closed, and the streets are empty. What better way to spend a Friday than with a squad of solid dudes riding and getting hassled by cops and people alike. But really, I know people may have issues with us out riding, but Demarcus, Garrett, and Nathan have been riding together on a nearly basis and keeping their circles very small. And, as you’ll see, I’m keeping the dabs far away and I’ve been using hand sanitizer on a regular basis.” – Our BMX

With BMX becoming more and more complex with its riding, this BMX video featuring Demarcus Paul doing nothing but bunnyhops over things is kind of refreshing. It’s something super basic, but he puts it to use on so many different setups and spots that it is honestly a good watch from start to finish. This one is well worth a look!

“A video with no tricks? Basically. When I met up with Demarcus to do the Bunnyhop How-To video, we cruised downtown San Diego and it was such a fun little cruise literally bunny hopping as many things as possible that I figured I’d just throw it into a little edit. Obviously nothing serious by any means…hopefully you enjoy the vibe.” – Our BMX
