December 26, 2015

You know when All Day BMX Shop down in Mexico throw a street jam, things are going to get nuts. Check out this fresh BMX video packed full of highlights from their latest jam that went down! As always, they had a HUGE turn out, great spots and plenty of good times. Check it!

“All Day BMX Shop hosted their 3rd annual street jam and riders flocked from all over Baja California, Mexico to attend. Oscar Santiago, Cuervo, Panikis, Javi Quintero, and loads of others spent the afternoon riding the best street spots Mexicali has to offer. Everyone was hyped up by the crowd, and a couple of guys might have bit off more than they could chew when they tried to handle a massive rail that left bodies tumbling every which way. Good vibes and a great afternoon of BMX south of the border!

Merritt – Stephan August 2015

December 17, 2015

Over the past year or two, Stephan August has been working hard and putting in some serious time on his bike. Here’s his latest BMX video for Merritt which is filled with some damn good riding from start to finish as he puts his pegs to heavy use. Take a look!

“Stephan August is back with his second DIG exclusive of the year, this time in conjunction with sponsor Merritt, and the addition of 4 pegs. Hailing from The Valley, Stephan knocked off some moves near home, criss crossed the greater Long Angeles area, and ventured up north to San Francisco with longtime friend and videographer Chris Bracamonte. He may be a new comer to the peg game, but he’s clearly got a handle on things quickly. We at DIG enjoy that Stephan doesn’t confine himself to the standard mix of ledges and rails, seeking his fair share of interesting roofs, gaps, pools, and more.

989 Crew – “Our Video”

December 17, 2015

There’s so much talent coming out of Michigan on a regular basis. The 989 Crew is the next generation of guys who are putting in some heavy work out in the streets. Here’s a full-lenghter from the crew that features footage that was collected over the course of the year in a handful of cities around the Midwest! Great watch from start to finish! Get on that play button and check this BMX video out!

“The 989 crew’s ‘Our Video’ full length features full parts from Alex McTaggart, Jonathon Dietz, Trent Lutzke, Gage Keller, Grant Ueberroth, and plenty of local friends. The Michigan scene has been a source of a ton of talent over the years, with the 989 crew proving that the next crop is ready to leave their mark too. Consider this your formal introduction and keep your eyes peeled for these kids in 2016!

“The 989crew is based out of Bay City, Michigan. Located half way up the mitten state resting in the pocket of your thumb if you were looking at your hand. Michigan is harsh and the weather is unpredictable if we’re lucky we get 6-7 months out of the year to ride outdoors. As far as riding indoors we have a 2 hour drive south to the Detroit area where the majority of the Michigan scene is from. For this years project we set out to explore some of the major Midwest cities including Chicago, Louisville, Cincinnati,
Detroit, Grand Rapids, and a handful of small towns throughout Michigan. The highlight of filming for this video was the trek to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It’s hard to put into words the experience of going up there. It’s like no other place you could go to in the states. The spots are insane up there and I can see why BK and Tony Neyer traveled up there years ago. Filming for this project has been a big learning experience, nothing has came easy and I didn’t even know how to use a camera 2 years ago. I’ve got a lot of my inspiration from The Michigan Video crew. Our scene needs people that put out videos it keeps kids stoked on BMX. I’ve seen a rise in my local area of kids that come out to the parks. For the most part everyone in the state is really supportive of what we are doing and that’s what keeps us going. The plans are heavy for next year and you can keep up with us on Instagram @989crew. Thanks to Dig and Devin Feil for this exclusive.” -Alex McTaggart

BSD – Lost In Iran

December 16, 2015

There are only a handful of places on this earth we’re not really sure if we’ve seen much, if any, footage from. Iran is one of those countries and it looks like that all changes now. BSD‘s Luc Legrand, Antony Lille, along wth Clement Baes and filmer Antoine Sabourin recently saw their chance and took it to explore a country that most don’t consider. Based off this BMX video, it’s safe to say this place is one big untapped spot and the people appear to be pretty amazed by what these guys are doing on two wheels. Pretty amazing stuff since Iran always gets painted as a pretty rough place to go.

“The BSD hippies are back and this time they threw out the rule book and took advantage of Iran’s recent increased leniency on their visa applicants. Forget what you think you already know and watch on as Luc Legrand, Antony Lille and guest rider, Clement Baes ride bikes and enjoy a country that most would be scared to even consider visiting, let alone smith grind through. Sit back and enjoy!” – DIG

“In the current world climate and with the help of the propaganda of political pundits, lots of friends don’t understand… why Iran? It’s dangerous… blah blah blah… Whatever, all I can say is that it was one of the best experiences in life for all of us. The Iranian people we met were just so nice, hospitable and curious about the world. We were able to speak about all of the big subjects… religion, politics and war. They know of what the rest of the world thinks of them. They know that it is all geo-politics. They aren’t angry about American people but they are against imperialist politics. They are afraid of undergoing the same fate as all the countries which surround them. Anyway, we met incredible people, discovered the Persian culture, ate good food, saw crazy landscapes and we rode some originals spots for our littles bikes… So, switch off the TV and open your mind. No more wars, love is gonna win!” – Antoine Sabourin

DIG just dropped the latest podcast that Shad Johnson did with the one and only Van Homan to talk about a ton of different topics from ay back in the day on up into more relevant topics today. Definitely worth hitting play and listening to this one!

“We sat down with Van Homan while he was visiting Portland late in 2015 and had one hell of an epic discussion. It feels like we covered almost everything and anything ranging from how much of a game changer Standard 3/8’s heat treated axle’s were when they came out, to the classic Trailblazin’ video, filming for both the Little Devil videos, keeping that mindset to keep pushing your riding as you get older, and so so many other things. Van just started talking before we were even ready to go so we just hit record. Enjoy this unscripted and open conversation with a truly influential game changing legend of our time.” – DIG
