Common Crew Street Ride Got Insane

Leave a Comment

Last weekend was the Common Crew Street Ride out in California. If you weren’t able to make it to the jam, you’re in luck because Francis Castro had his camera out filming everything that went down throughout the day. A ton of riders turned out and it looks like plenty of amazing riding went down before the rain hit.

“Season 2/EP. 5 – “BMX – COMMON CREW STREET RIDE GOT INSANE!” Just what we promised at 10,000 subs: an insane street ride! Despite getting kicked out of half the spots and the rain pouring down on us we still had an amazing time. Super sick getting to ride with our fans and meeting so many of you. TILL NEXT TIME!

Common Crew at Woodward West

Leave a Comment

Last summer some of the Common Crew took a trip out to Woodward West for a week of riding the different setups all around camp. We’re not quite sure what took so long for the footage to make its way online, or why they ended up losing a chunk of their clips, but it’s better late than never. Check out just under 2 minutes of footage they were able to get online!

“First off I want to give a big late thanks to WoodWard West for having us stay at their facility. Although it was 11 months ago, this week was still a blast and I can still remember all the good times.

Second I want to apologize to the crew and our viewers because a LOT of footage got lost, I’m talking rare sh*t. Like Eddie tailwhiping a dirt jump rare.

Regardless I hope you enjoy this Common Crew at Woodward West mix featuring Alec Siemon, Julian Arteaga, and Jared Duncan. Sh*t, shout out Sunday Bikes.”

Common Crew In Westminster

Leave a Comment

The Common Crew coming through with a fresh mix from some time the crew spent cruising around Westminster’s spots that the place has to offer. Hit play to check out what Ethan Corriere, Julian Arteaga, Devon Smillie, Alec Siemon and the rest of the crew stacked for clips along the way!

“After filming for our full length for 5+ years we thought it would be nice to have a laid back approach to a video. This ended up with us filming a day video in one of our neighboring cities. This city isn’t exactly known to be stacked with spots but finding random stuff to ride is always a blast. Enjoy and let us know which city we should hit next!” – Francis Castro

The Coming of The Common Crew

Leave a Comment

There’s no doubt that the Common Crew have been making some serious waves since they started popping up. They quickly became this crew that has produced some serious talent that have found theirselves on different teams from the AM to the Pro squads and more. They have all been working on their full-length video for a few years now and with that dropping soon, Ride BMX decided to catch up with them to learn a little bit more about the crew. Watch as Julian Arteaga, Ethan Corriere, Francis Castro, Jacob Cable, Alec Siemon, Denim Cox, Sauce and Devon Smillie all throw down and talk about what each guy is like.

“Common Crew started as a group of friends, but over the past 6 years it has morphed into an entity that spits out professional level riders, still in their teens. Don’t get it twisted though, popularity and glory aside they still remain just as tight of friends to this day… This video interview delves into each member of the crew as he is viewed by his peers, the roots of the squad, their new video, and everything else in between.”

Sunday Bikes – Alec Siemon Welcome Video

Leave a Comment

Although it was announced that Alec Siemon joined the Sunday Bikes squad back in October of 2015, this long awaited video is well worth the wait! Hit play to watch Alec slay street spots to make it all official and everything. This has some damn good riding, sweet spots and solid film work. Enjoy!

“It seems a little strange to call this a welcome video, as Alec has been repping Sunday for a good eight months now, but I think this video was worth the wait.

Alec has been such a great addition to our team. Traveling with Alec means constantly laughing at his unique, creative, and sometimes puzzling sense of humor, which really doesn’t even begin to describe how entertaining spending time with this guy actually is. Alec is a strange cat, and we couldn’t be happier about it. It’s pretty easy to pick up on Alec’s gift for comedy just from a quick visit to his Instagram (@alec_shmalec) or Snapchat (Shmalec) or even his prized pup Koda’s Instagram (@swaggerkoda), and watching Alec ride, it’s even easier to see how talented he is. Go ahead and click on the video and I’m sure you’ll agree. – Walter Pieringer
