Orange Juice X Vans Copenhagen

July 10, 2015

The Orange Juice crew hit the streets of Copenhagen for their latest Vans trip with Mark Vos, Jack Nieraeth, Emile Bouwman, Nicky van der Veen, and Roy van Kempen ready to put their bikes to good use on some of the cities finest spots. Above is the video, produced by Tom Lammerse, giving you a look at how they spent their nine days during their visit! It sounds like they were fighting weather for a good portion of the time, but that didn’t keep these guys from stacking the clips they needed to produce one hell of a BMX video. Everything from the riding to the spots and film work is amazing in this. Get on that play button and check out this video that DIG dropped already!

In The Cut – United Tour De France

July 9, 2015

The United Bike Co. team recently loaded up and took a trip on over to France to spend a few days cruising spots and stacking clips! DIG just released this raw cut of footage featuring the crew going to work on spots. As you can imagine, with a crew like the United team, they had no trouble coming up with some amazing riding on the spots they did end up coming across. Hell, they even got Ian Morris to slide a big rail to get his heart racing. Hit that play button and take it all in! This is a BMX video that’s well worth watching from start to finish.

“Loading up a van with bikes and hitting the road with a (very) loose plan has been a staple in BMX since the beginning. For the latest United filming trip we did exactly that, driving from the South of England to the South of France with bossman Ian Morris, young guns Harry Mills-Wakley and Fernando Laczko… and picking up ‘The French Connexion’ of Alex Valentino, Tom Deville and Nico Terrez on the way and temporary Frenchman Corey Martinez. With kilometres covered, injuries sustained, new friends made, fields slept in and footage collected for their ongoing ‘Still United’ project, it had all the ups and downs of a classic BMX road trip. Le Bangers are being held back for the DVD, until then enjoy the rest of the footage collected over our week through France via our latest DIG ‘In The Cut’ video.

Dennis Enarson – Real Time

July 7, 2015

We have seen a handful of day in the life videos and they’re all pretty interesting, but some are pretty unrealistic to what a real day is like. Recently, DIG followed Dennis Enarson around for a full day and really got a look at what a single day was like. It wasn’t a “typical day”, just a day full of good times and BMX. Take a look and enjoy. This video gives you a clear understanding why Dennis rules!

“Mic’d up from sunup to sundown in San Diego ‘Realtime’ with Dennis Enarson is about as authentic as it gets with one of the best in BMX. DIG’s Fraser Byrne follows Dennis throughout his day, which includes a visit from his father Kenny, stop at the East County BMX 10th Anniversary Jam, brews at the ‘Wayne’s World’ beer perch, his thoughts on X Games, and more. Dennis (who topped our DIG 25 list back in 2013) is not only loved by us, but by fans, his sponsors Haro and Demolition, and the BMX community as a whole… and you’ll get a good idea why when you see how he carries himself throughout the day.”

Brian Foster Bike Check

July 2, 2015

Brian Foster week continues! This time around we get a fresh (well, sort of fresh) Bike Check with Brian giving us a look at his current Fit Bike Co. and Merritt setup! This bike has some scuffs and dings, but for the most part this bike has been rolling strong for the better part of two years which is quite impressive for a guy like BF. You can find out more about the bike, why he’s been running this bike for so long and more over on the DIG website.

Regardless of the scratches and dings, that’s one hell of a BMX bike right there!

BF-IT: Dreamline Crash Commentary

July 1, 2015

Ah, man… This one is a hell of a memory for me personally. During the first Dreamline contest, Brian Foster took a slam that left him with a torn ACL. The reason this is such a memory is because I was shooting photos at this contest and remember walking up to Brian after he fell to check if he was okay, and he calmly said “I tore my ACL” and I almost thought he was kidding because I imagined seeing this excruciating melt down filled with screaming and everything when that happens. Talk about a badass in that shitty situation. Sure enough though, Brian did have a torn ACL and ended up getting surgery after that contest. DIG dropped this funny slow-motion commentary from the crash where Brian talks us through his thoughts as he was going down. Take a look!

“As promised we’ve got the BF-it documentary extras to release online today as part of our #DIGBFWEEK, and first up is Brian’s horrible crash from Red Bull Dreamline back in 2011 (which resulted in knee surgery) but with a special BF commentary over the top explaining how things went in his mind, as only he could! Look out for a Cutting Room Floor video with some hilarious outtakes coming on digbmx.com soon.” – DIG
