It’s pretty rad seeing how riders are able to balance out multiple roles in BMX these days. Christian Rigal is a perfect example of that who is one hell of an amazing rider, but he’s equally as dialed on the other side of the lens as well. There’s no doubt that you’re a fan of his riding, his film work or both. With that being said, between riding and filming, Christian is constantly on the move working on projects from his section for the new United DVD “Still United” section to getting his new RED Scarlet Dragon camera dialed in. We haven’t caught up with him in a little while, so we figured now would be a perfect time to catch up with him and see what’s new! There’s some Markit news that we’re especially excited about… Check it!

“Markit Zero” Crash Section

July 8, 2015

When you go as hard as the Markit team does, you’re bound to take some nasty crashes… Especially while pushing yourself for a video part. That was definitely the case for their entire team while filming for the “Markit ZERO” DVD! Watch Dennis Enarson, Chad Kerley, Christian Rigal, Rob Wise, Connor Lodes, Geoff Slattery, Ronnie Napolitan and Mike Jonas take slam after slam after slam to get the clips that made the video so epic! BMX makes you tougher than nails from all the ass kickings you take, that’s for sure!

“This is by far one of the heaviest crash sections you are ever going to see! The crew took a beating for MARKIT ZERO. We had to make sure the BMX world got a behind the scenes look into what it really took to create this DVD. Get ready for over seven minutes of raw, savage falls for your viewing pleasure.
Filmed and edited by Christian Rigal.”

Markit BMX – “Zero” Friends Section

May 5, 2015

The Markit crew had been sitting on a TON of footage for a friends section that was supposed to go into the “Markit Zero” DVD, but didn’t because of some issues with music clearance and iTunes. So, they sat on it a little longer, added a few more clips and decided to drop this banger of a BMX video that’s absolutely STACKED! This is a MUST SEE!

“Between old friends and new friends from all over the world, we’re always out cruisin around with the homies! Over the last 5 years these clips have been stacking up and we’re stoked to finally put out the friends section we had hoped for in MARKIT ZERO. Better late then never right? Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen!

If there’s one huge perk to BMX, it’s the option and freedom to ride anywhere you want in the world. Everywhere you go there are new spots, new people, new experiences just waiting for you and you have your bike to give you all the reasons in the world to hit the road. Dennis Enarson is a traveling machine with more miles logged in a year than most traveling businessmen, so we figured we would hit him up with a few questions to find out some of his favorite and least favorite parts of traveling are! Let’s see what he had to say!
