No Wheel Manual Challenge

June 21, 2019

If you have ever tried to manual without a front wheel, it definitely throws you way off since your balance point shifts so much from the reduced weight up front. Scotty Cranmer dropped a new video from a No Wheel Manual Challenge that Big Boy, Cory Berglar, Dom Simoncini, Vinny Manino and Brooklyn did behind the bike shop to see how far these guys could make it. Hit play and take it all in to see who won.

“It’s a manual challenge while riding BMX bikes but without a front wheel so the risk is higher and the level of difficulty is more extreme! Five of the best riders in the universe battle it out to see who could ride their bike without a wheel the farthest!” – Scotty Cranmer

May 30, 2018

Scotty Cranmer challenged the guys to a high jump challenge with a sketchy kicker made from scraps!

It’s that time for another challenge from Scotty Cranmer! This time around he challenged Dom Simoncini, Vinny Mannino and Big Boy to a sketchy high jump challenge. The trick is that they have to build a kicker out of random pieces from the garage behind the shop. Hit play to see how hight the guys went and who took the win!

“We had a High Jump Challenge behind my bike shop where three BMX riders competed against each other to see which rider could jump their bicycle the highest off of the ramp! The riders designed a very sketchy ramp by using only pieces of junk! Surprisingly, the ramp worked really good and the riders were able to set a record for the highest jump! At the end of the competition only one rider was able to become the BMX high jump challenge champion and be awarded 100 points towards the Scotty Cranmer Channel Challenge!” – Scotty Cranmer

Check out what went down and who got it done the fastest between Big Boy, Dom Simoncini, Brooklyn and Matty Cranmer!

“We made an obstacle course of hurdles to race BMX bikes on against each other! Four riders will race against one another to see who is the fastest BMX hurdles rider on the planet! Some amazing racing happened but only one rider walked away as the champion and get 100 points towards the Scotty Cranmer Channel Challenge!” – Scotty Cranmer

I am calling out the tricks that the guys have to do today! Who do you think will win this game? Hope you guys enjoyed this one remember to subscribe and peace!” – Scotty Cranmer



Scotty Cranmer – Flat Tire Death Gap #6

May 14, 2018

Scotty Cranmer decided it was time for another round of the Flat Tire Death Gap!

It’s that time again for a Flat Tire Death Gap challenge! This time around Scotty Cranmer changed things up by turning it into a team game, with each team building their own ramp to, to see who can go the distance without catching a few screws and nails in their tires. Check out what was built and which team took the win!

“Flat tire death gap #6 is the latest in the BMX long jump competition where the riders keep competing until they can’t clear the gap and case their back wheel on a bed of a thousand screws! In this video this is a team challenge where each team builds their own ramp to jump as far as they possibly can! The Flat tire death gap record is broken in this video and the winner just might surprise you!” – Scotty Cranmer

Scotty Cranmer – We Got A New Skatepark

April 19, 2018

Big Boy, Dom and Baconator ride a new pre-fab skatepark that opened up in New Jersey..

Here’s a fresh one from Scotty Cranmer giving us a look at what went down during a session at the brand new pre-fab park in Hamilton, New Jersey! The cement is smooth, the ramps are clean and the rails slide smooth. This is a look at what the guys were able to stack for clips while dodging the rain and cold.

“We just got a brand new skatepark built in New Jersey. We have filmed a video here before but it was at the old version of this park, they recently tore it down and put this park up instead! This skatepark is brand new and right down the road from Big Boys house so he has a crazy new local park to come shred on the daily! Dom, Baconator, BIG BOY, and myself met up there for a quick session before the rain decided to come in a ruin our fun. Super fun session and I hope you guys enjoy this video, don’t forget to like, comment, and, Subscribe!!!” – Scotty Cranmer
