Monster – Cam White and Ben Wallace: Dirt Doubles

October 13, 2012

Cam White and Ben Wallace spend some time cruising Corey Nastazio’s backyard in this new video for Monster. As you can imagine they throw down and even get pretty close to taking each other out in the process! Check it!

“Cam White and Ben Wallace embark on a BMX Dirt journey to shred Nasty’s yard in Tehachapi, CA for an insane session in the wee hours of the morning. As luck would have it, the flag went flat on the second day of the shoot and it was game on for these two Monster BMX / Mongoose team mates.” – Justin Kosman

Shit BMXers Say at the X-Games

July 1, 2012

Head over to the ESPN site to check out the shit some of your favorite pros say at the X-Games. There’s definitely some name drops and inside type stuff that I’m sure some of you won’t get, but it’s still hilarious. Kachinsky’s RDS line had me cracking up.

Story Behind The Photo: Jimmy Levan & The Chainless Tooth

June 24, 2012

I’ll be honest and say I never knew this photo was chainless. That makes it so much more gnarly.

“Jimmy Levan tell the behind the scenes story about his first tooth hanger photo that he shot for an Odyssey BMX ad. It just so happened to be in the dark and he was missing his chain at the time. Photo by Justin Kosman” – Crooked World

Story Behind The Photo: Hoang Tran and the Battleship Barspin

May 15, 2012

“Hoang Tran and Justin Kosman discuss Hoang’s latest ad for Subrosa, shot in San Diego.
Canon 1Dmk4, Canon 70-200mm at 100mm, two Einstein flashes at 1/2 power with the long throw reflectors. ISO 100, f9, 1/250th second.
When I was uploading this video file, I got a pop-up message from the content management system saying that “We have detected that your video has bad lighting, would you like us to fix that?” hahah Too funny Youtube. Unless you have a giant PLM reflector on a 30ft boom, no thanks.
Photographer: Justin Kosman” – Crooked World
