Ender Ender – Dan Conway “Holy Fit”

April 5, 2016

There’s not a whole lot of riders out there that would go for a clip when literally everything was stacked against them. When it came time for Dan Conway to get a clip that ultimately became his ender for his section, there wasn’t much that could stop him. Despite rain, two flat tires, multiple crashes and security hovering, he still managed to get it done. Check out this behind the scenes look, along with the story from Dan in this new Ender Ender courtesy of DIG

“The DIG Ender Ender series continues! Sometimes it’s impossible to leave a trip without trying something that’s been on your mind. That’s exactly what Dan Conway encountered when he was on a Holy FIT filming trip in Phoenix, AZ. Despite pretty much every factor pretty much fighting against Dan he got it done somehow, with some hilarious results in the process! Let the man himself explain more…

Shiftlife BMX Jam 2016 – Rosario, Argentina

April 2, 2016

It’s incredible how good the scene is down in Argentina these days. Here’s footage from the Shiftlife Jam that went down last month in Rosario that had a HUGE turn out. Check out a ton of damn good riding in the video above. Looks like this day kicked ass from start to finish.

“In early March, U.S. native Martin Ochoa threw a jam for the up-and-coming riding scene in Rosario, Argentina, and it was awesome. Attendees came from all over the country and beyond, including DIG #96 allumni Carlos Lopez, Kiko Blasco, Dalmiro Julian Torres, Julian Persia, and Matias Dunda, and more.

James Newrick “NSF2” Section

March 29, 2016

What were you doing 14 years ago? Well, if you are James Newrick, you would have been putting in work on street spots an skateparks over in the U.K for the “NSF2” video. Fast forward 14 years and Jim just put out part one of Hit The North, still slaying spots with his friends like he was years ago. Hit play and enjoy this classic!

“Anyone around my age with an interest in street riding should be more than familiar with James Newrick’s NSF 2 part, which was released on VHS in 2002. Even now, whenever I hear that Peter Hook bassline on Joy Division’s Shadowplay it makes me want to go and hop something in a bleak Northern setting. The BMX world has changed so much since NSF 2 that it’s hard to explain how sacred BMX videos such as this were.” – James Cox / DIG BMX

Nick Seabasty – Low Profile

March 27, 2016

DIG just released this fresh new BMX video featuring Nick Seabasty tearing up spots out east and down south in the desert! As always, Nick puts his pegs to heavy use and finds ways to ride some difficult to ride spots. Check it!

“Nick Seabasty has been working on this one for over a year now, taking a knock to the head which set things back for a bit, but with a trip to AZ and some Looking For Spots in his home state of New Jersey this has got a bit of everything. That last kinker is a beast!”

“I’m always out LFSing or just pedaling around with friends. Back in NJ, we’d always just have the camera with us and if we found a spot we’d hit it and keep going. I love that way of filming instead of stressing over a spot for a while but it happens and it’s always a good feeling getting it. As for this project it was kinda hectic.. I started it a little over a year ago but with moving around a lot it was more difficult than I thought.. Finding someone to film with was scarce while bouncing around and getting all the clips to Smallfry to edit was just as hard (laughs) that and a pretty serious head injury took me out of filming for a few months while in AZ. I didn’t really feel like myself riding wise till this past July actually.” – Nick Seabasty

Wethepeople – “Clutchin’ At Straws” In Sicily

March 24, 2016

Some of the Wethepeople team recently took a trip to Sicily to see just what the place had to offer! Although it doesn’t sound like the place had a ton to offer for spots, the entire crew were able to crush every spot they did come across and ended up with this dialed BMX video! Check the highlights above!

“Sometimes you make a gamble and it pays off. Sometimes it doesn’t. Wethepeople’s Mike Curley, Ed Zunda, Jordan Godwin, and Mo Nussbaumer had seen the Italian island of Sicily pop up in quite a few skateboarding videos recently so in January they decided to see what the island had to offer for two wheels. Well, it didn’t go quite to plan – spots were minimal and the guys spent almost every evening on google maps and skate apps trying to find things, at one point Mo got excited because he found a manny pad… it was definitely slim pickings. Every day was spent searching and for such a battle the video actually worked out really well! Curley comes through with some of that signature tech, Mo with the grind tailwhip game on point, Godwin with a juicy old hard 3 and more… and Zunda with that effortless control. Good job lads!

Profile Racing X DIG – The Dream Driveway

March 22, 2016

Wow, talk about an amazing DIY spot! Some of the Profile Racing crew caught a session at a spot in Tampa that a guy built out of his driveway! This is what we call taking things into your own hands, haha. Check out some real good riding on this dream spot! Ironically, none of the cars were actually parked on the driveway, haha.

“The first Installment of the Profile X DIG BMX DIY Documentary Series.
Over the course of the year, the Profile crew will be hitting up a selection of DIY spots to document the story of their creation, maintenance, and perpetuation.
The Dream Driveway is tucked into a quiet neighborhood in Tampa, Florida where Ryan Clements (Owner) invited us out for a session and a walk through the details of an absolutely amazing spot.
We hope you enjoy.

Division Brand – Chris Whyte 2016 Video

March 15, 2016

Chris Whyte is one of those riders that we don’t see a ton of footage on a regular basis. However, when we do see his name pop up, we know we’re in for a treat. This new Division Brand BMX video is a clear indicator of that because it’s packed from start to finish with rail and ledge destruction. If you love grinds, you have to watch this!

“Chris Whyte spent the past 10 months stacking footage for his latest Division Brand video. With footage coming from Melbourne, Sydney and California he hunted down every rail he could find for this project.

Filmed and edited by Cooper Brownlee.
Additional footage from Chris Bracamonte.”
