Que the cheers from the midschool riders from around the world! Over the years, the rollercoaster of Little Devil coming alive and then disappearing once or twice since it initially shut down has taken its toll on the emotions of all the fans of the devil horns around the world. The brand, known for its iconic logo, unique t-shirt designs and probably one of the most beloved BMX specific backpacks ever, has been on a hiatus for a while after a brief re-boot around 2015. That’s why we were surprised when we just saw the above Instagram post with a link to the new Little Devil website / webstore that has a few t-shirts and some new head tube badges (man, we love those damn things!) now available for you to get your hands on. We aren’t seeing the legendary backpack, but maybe that’ll come in the future if things get rolling once again! Either way, it’s awesome to see the brand making a comeback. Go check out their new website!

Little Devil Working On A New Full-Length Video?

Oh snap… We were just thinking about how we haven’t heard from Little Devil much this past year and was curious what was going on with it. Turns out that Derek Adams has secretly been working on a new video that, based off this little preview and all of the past Little Devil videos, is going to kick a TON of ass. Get psyched. We are.

“Why is there a picture of @condorbmx in the Little Devil feed? Because for this thanksgiving we’re giving the bmx world a glimpse of our new video project that we’ve been secretly working on for 2 years. And Mat fucking Hoffman is in it! #2015 #VHSBMX” – @LittleDevilBrand

Dutch Neck Trails Final Sessions

Just spotted this video from the Dutch Neck trails over on Can You Dig It. Apparently the higher powers decided these trails were some sort of a threat and were set to be destroyed. Before this amazing set of trails were demolished, a few of the locals got together for some final laps! Take a peek at this video because it’s the last from such a dialed spot.

“One of the last sessions at Dutch Neck trails in Red Bank, NJ..
Riders include: Arod, Brad Gethard, Garrett Byrnes, Joe Hulette, Ronnie Brown, John Britton (JB), Derek Adams, Brady Baker, Brad Jameson.

Orchid – “Footwork” Team Mix

Derek Adams On Van Homan’s Departure From Orchid

1 Comment

Good to see things didn’t hit the fan… I figured we would pull a classic Van Homan moment during his time on Orchid in the video above.

“You may have heard by now that Van Homan has moved on to greener pastures, or so they say. For the first time in 14 years we won’t be working together in some form or fashion. I just wanted to take this opportunity to say thanks for everything, but that would hardly sum up how I feel. Van has been like a little brother to me since we first met back in 1996. We’ve been through a lot more than the typical sponsor/sponsoree relationship. We’ve been room mates, travel companions, band mates, partners in crime, trail digging buddies, best man (yikes), but most of all, good friends for 16 years. Through all of that, we built a bmx empire together complete with indoor bowls and poker lounges. We’ve kinda done it all, it’s been a wild ride. As with any brothers we might not always agree or see eye to eye, but in the end we both know we love each other. And honestly, I’m kind of looking forward to being back where we started. No expectations, no business stuff confusing anything, kind of the way it should be. I’m just glad we made it through to the other side. One day hopefully we’ll have stories to tell the grand kids.

PS: and to the dudes who snatched him up, you made a good investment. Just take care of my little bro or I’ll fuck you up.” – Derek Adams / Orchid
