A few months back, Dennis Enarson had his crazy backyard ramp rebuilt, which you can check out in this video — Vans “Homestead”.

Did you get a look at Dennis’ new Vans Old Skool Pro BMX Colorway that dropped yesterday?
The Dennis Enarson Old Skool Pro BMX shoe colorway from Vans has arrived!
It’s always funny when you think about something, and then it happens shortly after. Just the other day we were thinking that it was surprising that Dennis Enarson hasn’t had a signature colorway from Vans yet, then today news that his signature Old Skool Pro BMX colorway is dropping this month arrives! For Dennis’ colorway, he went with this rad olive with gum and white accents, with added graphics by Thomas Hooper on the heel and the footbed that adds that extra pop to make it Dennis’ own. Check out photos and more details about the shoe below!

Season 2, Episode 1. Things have changed a little bit with the Unclicked Podcast. Dennis got a bit burned out, so we struck a deal where I’d (Ryan Fudger) would take over the podcast and he’d still be involved as much or as little as he’d like. Fortunately, we have several podcasts in the bag already and Dennis has been part of every single one. New logo, new co-host, new location, and a new dog that interrupts the podcast, but it’s still the same Unclicked.

As many of you know, Dennis Enarson‘s backyard was recently completely revamped and it turned out AMAZING. There are sooooo many lines possible and you can literally just keep flowing back and forth non-stop. Here’s a video from Haro where Dennis does one continuous and very long line all over the ramp. Needless to say, Dennis throws down some great riding and puts every inch of this ramp setup to good use.
If you want to see more from this ramp, check out the new Vans “Homestead” video featuring Dennis, Corey Walsh and Jason Watts on the ramp!
“Come along for the ride on this insanely glorious line with Dennis Enarson that seems to just keep going and going forever! Consider this a tour by Dennis of his brand new ramp set up that is sure to leave you drooling!

When you’re watching a BMX video, it’s easy to forget how much time and work went into making the video. The other day the Vans “Homestead” video dropped and it was a banger featuring Dennis Enarson, Corey Walsh and Jason Watts that was filmed and edited by Christian Rigal in Dennis’ new and improved backyard ramp setup. The video is an absolute banger that is just shy of 4 minutes long. What you don’t see is all the time that went into rebuilding the ramp and the multiple nights of filming, all the lighting and camera gear, and more. Here’s a raw cut giving us a little behind the scenes look at one of the nights of filming and just what was going down! Check out the full video down below if you missed it or want another look!
“Dennis Enarson’s private ramps have been done for a good while, but he’s kept them under wraps in anticipation of “Homestead.” I went out on the final night of filming and captured the vibe of the filming session. Enjoy!” – Our BMX
With everything shutting down, the people who happen to have a ramp setup to ride are definitely stoked. It looks like Dennis Enarson got lucky and completely revamped his backyard ramp setup before the shut down with the help of Corey Walsh and Jason Watts. Here’s a fresh video from Vans showing these guys absolutely CRUSHING IT on the new setup! It’s safe to say this setup turned out perfect.
“Prior to the start of social distancing roomies Dennis Enarson, Corey Walsh and Jason Watts set out to build the ultimate backyard ramp. When the sun went down so did the heavy riding…
