“This past weekend FBM celebrated their 21st Birthday by holding and awesome jam at HCS skatepark in vestal NY. Everybody had a great time and a lot of good riding went down. Congratulations to FBM!” – DIG
Merritt in Boston
Two in a row from DIG! This time around we’ve got a fresh one from the Merritt trip some of the team took to Boston. This is loaded with some damn good riding and the film work is real good too! Hit play and enjoy!
“Brandon Begin, Jim Borio and Brett Silva hitting the streets of Boston on a short trip earlier this summer, despite only having a few days, these guys killed it and i couldn’t be happier with the outcome.”
DIG – Scratch The Surface: SoCal
DIG released their new website today and along with that came some fresh content like their first Scratch The Surface video featuring Chester Blacksmith, Andrew Jackson, Brain Terada, Dan Foley and a few others getting some time in at a few pools and ditches in Souther California. So beyond stoked to see Brian surface in a new video and everything about this kicks ass.

Will Smyth and the Future of DIG
Head over to Defgrip for an interview with Will Smyth about the future of DIG and their transition to 100% online content. Needless to say, I’m more than stoked to see the changes they’re bringing to the table and honestly doing things the way I wish things could be done here. Will announced their lineup for contributors and I can tell you right now, we’re all in for some amazing content from them in the future. I’m sure some of you are wondering “why would you be stoked they’re going to be a huge competitor?” and I can tell you right now,The Union or even myself wouldn’t be where things are today without the things I learned from Will during my years with DIG. All I know is I am looking forward to this! Hell yeah!

DIG at The Street Series – New York City
This past weekend, things got hectic in New York City when The Street Series invaded with a huge army of BMX riders looking to ride spots. This video DIG dropped giving us a look at what went down throughout the day is a pretty clear indicator of just how many people turned out. Although it doesn’t look like a ton of riding was accomplished thanks to the cops, people had a good time!
“ They’d definitely saved the wildest for last when the Monster Energy Street Series rolled into NYC for the 5th and final round of the year. The cops tried to shut it down but with over 500 riders blasting through the streets they were powerless to do anything. Watch as NYC street riding legends past and present, including Edwin Delarosa, Ralf Sinisi and Mike Hoder, take you through the wildest night of BMX that they’ve ever witnessed in their city.”
DIG At The Street Series – Tokyo
The guys over at DIG just dropped this video from the Street Series stop in Tokyo, Japan the other week! Check out what Dakota Roche, Nathan Williams, Ben Lewis and more all got into during their visit!
“For round 4 of The Street Series we headed east to the Land Of The Rising Sun – Tokyo, Japan! Due to Tokyo’s mind-blowing amount of security and police and their zero tolerance attitude to BMX, the spots chosen were out of the city centre and we still got moved on most of the time. Despite that the day saw a ton of insane riding go down – Local rider Umihiko Asano wrapped the day up perfectly by snagging a well deserved 3rd place, Dakota Roche getting 2nd, and Nathan Williams with the top spot. Next stop, NYC! Filmed and edited by Peter Adam Additional filming by Lisa Ballard
