United BMX – “Still United” Team Mix 2

December 22, 2017

The 2nd team mix from the “Still United” DVD now online!

The amazing sections from the “Still United” DVD continue to flow. Today we get a look at the second Team Mix section that features Ian Morris, Jimmy Rushmore, Dan Boiski and Jack Birtles out slaying street spots. Each of these guys bring their own style to this section keeping things real interesting from start to finish!

“STILL UNITED 2016
Filmed and edited by Peter Adam

“We’ve got another online premiere of the epic ‘Still United’ DVD – this time it’s just under four minutes of footage from United bossman Ian Morris, along with Jimmy Rushmore, Dan Boiski and Jack Birtles. There’s not many 40+ year old BMX company owners still smashing out massive rails and bomb dropping into street setups, but Ian Morris can’t stop himself! Expect mach-10 clips from Nana Rushmore, effortless rail manoeuvres from London’s mental spot map guide Dan Boiski and some loose ol’ shredding from Jack Birtles down-under. You can’t beat a bit of Killing Joke either! You’ve got to love a good team section, and this second one from STILL UNITED ain’t no normal mix!” – DIG

By now, there’s a good chance that you have seen United Bike Co.‘s new, long awaited, highly anticipated “Still United” DVD that was a two year long project that was finally released the other week.

In The Cut – United Tour De France

July 9, 2015

The United Bike Co. team recently loaded up and took a trip on over to France to spend a few days cruising spots and stacking clips! DIG just released this raw cut of footage featuring the crew going to work on spots. As you can imagine, with a crew like the United team, they had no trouble coming up with some amazing riding on the spots they did end up coming across. Hell, they even got Ian Morris to slide a big rail to get his heart racing. Hit that play button and take it all in! This is a BMX video that’s well worth watching from start to finish.

“Loading up a van with bikes and hitting the road with a (very) loose plan has been a staple in BMX since the beginning. For the latest United filming trip we did exactly that, driving from the South of England to the South of France with bossman Ian Morris, young guns Harry Mills-Wakley and Fernando Laczko… and picking up ‘The French Connexion’ of Alex Valentino, Tom Deville and Nico Terrez on the way and temporary Frenchman Corey Martinez. With kilometres covered, injuries sustained, new friends made, fields slept in and footage collected for their ongoing ‘Still United’ project, it had all the ups and downs of a classic BMX road trip. Le Bangers are being held back for the DVD, until then enjoy the rest of the footage collected over our week through France via our latest DIG ‘In The Cut’ video.

Props – Issue 43: Ian Morris Profile

August 31, 2012

Props dug deep for this one. They pulled out Ian Morris’ profile from Issue 43 back in 2002. There’s so many gnarly rails. It’s kind of crazy to think how much has changed for Ian and BMX in general since this part.

“n another great classic section from the Props archives, we take a look back to late 2002 for the Ian Morris Profile, at a time when Ian rode for Federal before founding this own company, United.

A BMX legend himself known for insane rails and crashes, Ian is interviewed by fellow legends Dean Hearne, Joe Rich, Nate Wessel, Steven Crandall, and Leland Thurman.

In addition to park and street footage, the section features rare classic clips from the early 90s UK BMX scene of Ian trying outrageous rails, and some of the first backwards rails ever.” – Props
