Vans – Lost In Grand Cayman / Dennis Enarson Welcome Video

To officially welcome Dennis Enarson to the Vans team, Dennis, Gary Young and Kevin Peraza took a trip to Grand Cayman to ride the local park and soak up the sun! As expected, this video turned out absolutely amazing with excellent riding and dialed film work. If you are buried in way too much snow like we are, this would be a dream come true of a trip right about now!

Tag along as the crew embark on a journey to re-discover one of the heaviest concrete parks ever built in the most unlikely of places, on Grand Cayman Island in the middle of the of Caribbean Sea, the infamous Black Pearl. Watch Dennis Enarson, Gary Young and Kevin Peraza shred 62,000 square feet of unforgiving Cayman concrete; the first tricks for Dennis Enarson on his new journey with Vans BMX.

This past weekend the Toyota BMX Triple Challenge went down in Arlington, Texas with a ton of BMX’s finest in attendance for a unique contest that mixed the street guys with the ramp riders. This time around they did a ramp / street setup versus the dirt jumps we’ve been seeing in the past.

“The Toyota BMX Triple Challenge has proven to be the premiere event for pushing the level of dirt riding. But this year, the stop in Arlington switches all that up and takes on a whole new feel with ramps, trailers, jersey barriers, wallrides, and rails. The unique, street style course was designed by none other than Monster’s own Kevin Peraza and it brought out some of the best street and ramp riders in the world…check the highlights!” – Monster Energy

Heavy Session At The New Vans Training Facility

Leave a Comment

Some of the Vans team caught a private session at the new Vans headquarters…

What happens when Dakota Roche, Bruno Hoffmann, Kilian Roth, Gary Young, Dan Lacey, Andrew Castaneda and Anthony Perrin get together for a session? Plenty of amazing riding and good times. The crew recently caught a session at the new training facility located inside the brand new Vans headquarters out in California. Here’s a raw cut of footage giving you a look at what went down!

“Vans moved the whole operation to Costa Mesa recently, and with that move came a lot of life improvements…the most epic of them being a little private ‘training facility’ that the employees and pro riders can call their own at any time of the day or night. Before the Vans Street Invitational kicked off, we organized a little (but insanely heavy) session with some of the Vans squad including Dakota Roche, Bruno Hoffmann, Kilian Roth, Gary Young, Dan Lacey, Andrew Castaneda, and Anthony Perrin.

Hope you enjoy the raw cut; finding cleared music that isn’t horrible, so I figured this was the best way to go. Besides, I think it tells the vibe of the session pretty well.

Want more? Leave a comment and we’ll hassle Vans to get some more people in there.
