“At the Toronto BMX Jam in early Spring, we got to witness The Take team rider Dylan Stark ride in person for the first time, and we were impressed by his ability to adapt his street skills to a heated park contest setting. Around the same time, ESPN contributing videographer Larry Alvarado started shooting with Dylan in his adopted home of Riverside, Calif., and since then, Dylan has been working on the above edit. It’s a small glimpse into the life of Dylan, plus some ridiculous clips from the So Cal area. Get to know Dylan Stark, and please congratulate me for writing this paragraph without making any bad pirate jokes. – Brian Tunney / ESPN

Over the years, I’ve followed Chris’ work from back a few years ago when he was first doing the SJBMX website all the way up to these days where his work can be found on ESPN. In that time, his film work has improved and developed into some real good work. I figured it was time to get him some questions about himself and his film work. Let’s take a look at this filmer/geologist’s work…

X-Games 17 Invites – Round One
ESPN dropped the first round of invites for X-Games 17. The list looks real good, minus two things; I wasn’t invited, and there’s no DIRT once again. What’s that all about?
Justin Inman at West Linn Skatepark
“Fit Bike Co. pro team rider Justin Inman resides in Portland, Ore., and when trails season isn’t happening, he spends his time riding the many parks in the area. Recently, ESPN contributing videographer Dean Dickinson caught up with Justin to film a morning session at the West Linn Skatepark in Portland, and the result is above. Justin isn’t necessarily a trick rider, but the flow, transfers and tweakage is all there. Enjoy.” – ESPN

Rye Airfield Rain Day with AOTC
“We were on a trip in Boston filming for the “AOTC 2” DVD and got rained out one day. So we made the drive up to New Hampshire and managed to get a free session in at Rye. We started riding, then realized the session ended at 8:45 p.m. and it was already 7 and we hadn’t even gotten the cameras out because everyone was having so much fun cruising around. So we hunkered down, everyone pitched in and a lot of luck made for a really solid edit. Everyone threw down for the last hour or so and we left exhausted but accomplished. When we started filming, I figured the project was doomed but it somehow turned out okay. Featuring members of the AOTC and BMXFU crew, and some new freecoaster footage.” – Charlie Crumlish / ESPN
Ron Wilkerson Interview
“A few years ago, 2-Hip Bikes released a 25th anniversary 2-Hip Pork complete. They produced 150 bikes, but unfortunately, 2-Hip’s Ron Wilkerson forgot to save one for himself.
To compensate, Ron had a special version of a new 20″ top tube Pork produced for himself, which he runs through in the above video, as well as 2-Hip’s new Groovetech bar, stem and fork system. But this isn’t just a normal bike check.
Featuring classic 2-Hip King of Vert footage from the late ’80s, Ron discusses his traumatic head injury and ensuing coma suffered at the end of the 1989 AFA season, and how it affected his approach to riding. Watch and learn from one of the true BMX originals. Video by Chris McMahon.” – ESPN
