Emile Bouwman – Do You Even Slide Bro?

March 29, 2019

Whenever we see Emile Bouwman‘s name pop up, we know we are in for two things; great riding and some laughs! Here’s a fresh one with some emphasis on letting his tires slide, along with plenty of other tricks from a bunch of great spots.

“Dutch wildman Emile Bouwman is always busy with something, and recently he’s been out in Barcelona recovering from some injuries and filming whenever possible with local and DIG friend Santiago Arano. This isn’t quite his usual mix of scary gaps and high speed maneuverers, but damn can that man have fun on a bike. Both guys killed it on this one. The question is… do you even slide bro?!” – Emile Bouwman

———————————

As BMX evolved from the 1980’s into the 1990’s, a whole new generation of companies and riders rose to the forefront of the industry, forever changing its future.

Caught up in the fold was a young BMX racer from Louisville, Kentucky named James Menard LeVan. Along with his sister Susie, the pair traversed the ranks of the Midwest US racing scene, supported my their Mom’s ragtag track-side business.

After getting bored with pedaling fast around a track, Jimmy transitioned into dirt jumping and street riding, and soon found himself caught up in the mix as outside corporate companies entered BMX in the mid-90’s.

Using skills learned from years on the racetrack, Jimmy soon found himself at the helm of his own brand of street riding – jumping large gaps – which would ultimately elevate him to legend status within the expanding BMX scene, via Props Video Magazine and the pages of DIG BMX Magazine. ’Levangelism’ was born

With the “Midschool” era in full effect at the turn of the century, the BMX world was soon transformed as new rider-owned companies emerged, including Jimmy’s own brand Metal Bikes.

As the years went on, a string of bad injuries would plague Jimmy as his riding career began to slow down, until a fateful skateboard accident would forever change his world.

“Go Fast Pull Up” takes a look at Jimmy’s amazing story while stepping through important moments in BMX’s colorful history along the way.

Focalpoint BMX – Banks Jam 2019

March 14, 2019

The annual Banks Jam is always a good turn out and there’s no shortage of dialed riding and good times. Here’s a new video Focalpoint‘s Cooper Brownlee put together giving us a look at the highlights from this years jam, which was filled with sunshine and good times! Hit play!

“The words “Flem Banks Jam” have always held a level of hype when heard that not many events in Australian BMX could match besides for maybe ACT Jam.

I always remember seeing photos of the jam going down before I had ever attended and hearing all the stories of how people were just killing it and sending it on a whole new level that I was not accustom to as a teenager simply riding his local skate park in Eltham. The water gap, the large red poles in all the photos and the crazy riding were all trademarks of the Jam so with a 5 year gap since the last jam in 2014 and with a new and less iconic location – could the jam still work like it used too?

Without a shred of doubt, the answer is yes.

The new location opened up new tricks, new gaps and the mother of all rail hops. Throw in A LOT of DIY work from the crew, a few flat rails and it was on!

Melbourne offered a balmy 38 degrees this particular day but thankfully this did not stop a whole new wave of riders coming through to give it their best all in the name of BMX and good times.
