For the past twelve years there has been a BMX backyard of epic proportions located in Layton, Utah. Sure, it didn’t start out as one of the most historic backyards ever built but over the course of time, and thanks to the support of the home-owner it has surely built up a reputation all its own. The owner is none-other than S&M Bikes pro and legend Matt Beringer. Matt is a character that is actually just as unique as his backyard and that is part of the reason why his yard has become a go-to destination for BMX riders from all over the world. Needless to say, it’s been twelve years of good times and it’s all coming to a close as Matt needs to make some decisions on whether or not to try and keep the house. He is at the point where it’s getting to be more stress than it’s worth for him to keep up on without any support so he posted on his Facebook about putting the house up for sale soon. But first, he wanted to let everyone know that it is up for grabs shred-ready and as-is for $200,000. For any companies looking to invest in an amazing team house this is the opportunity of a lifetime. Located a half an hour out of Salt Lake City, Utah with neighbors that already know the deal and a yard that is ride-able as we speak it would be amazing to see a company step in and take it over. I caught up with Matt to break things down, fill everyone in on the exact details and let him speak his mind on the subject.
5050 – Powerlite Mike Benefit Jam
The weather might have been a little cool, but that didn’t stop people from coming out to 5050 to help raise funds for Powerlite Mike who recently had some piling medical bills. Check out what went down during the day in this video. That mattress grind box looks fun as hell!

Video Recap: 4/1 – 4/7
One of the craziest parts about doing this Video Recap every week just occurred to me. Every week we pull out all of these incredible videos that appear in the Daily Section that feature some amazing riding and great film work. What I didn’t really think about is all of the different countries that these videos come from. This week we’ve got videos with riding from the Ukraine, the U.K, Australia, Argentina, Estonia, France, Brazil, Poland, Canada, Russia and the U.S. which is pretty amazing if you think about it. Check out riding from Russ Barone, Adam Kun, Matthias Dandois, Chad Kerley, Jared Carter, Aaron Ross, Tom Dugan, Kevin Porter, Zac Miner, Matt Beringer, Matthias Dandois and many, many more! Let’s get into this!

Shawn “Elf” Walters has been busy collecting clips from all of the different jams that Cam Wood has been throwing at his shop, The Wood Shop, lately.

Through The Lens: Story Time with Matt Beringer
Whenever it comes time to put together an article for print you typically end up with more photos and copy than you can use. Sometimes certain parts of articles just have to get fully cut out due to space limitations. So, for example, the following story that you are going to read written by none other than Matt Beringer was originally set to go into an upcoming interview in Soul Magazine about Matt’s yard. There was a small problem though and that was the fact that he wrote nearly 1,000 words in response to a single question in regards to the water slides in the yard and how he got them. Now, if you know anything about print, you would know that 1,000 words are way too many words for one answer. I immediately took the answer and saved it as “Beringer Bonus” and had a plan to use it at one point for a future project simply because it’s an awesome story that I felt was definitely worth sharing. When I was out in Utah staying with Matt for a week working on a few different things we ended up spending a lot of time just shooting the shit and talking over some beers. He has so many awesome stories and they are always entertaining so I decided that instead of having this never see the light of day I would share it with the world. Welcome to the first edition of “Story Time” with S&M lifer and legend Matt Beringer.
