Meet Me In St. Louie

April 27, 2016

When the Front Brake Brethren get together, you know you’re going to see something that kicks a lot of ass. A good number of the crew recently got together at Ramp Riders and SK8 Liborius for a full weekend of good times and riding. Check out the highlight reel above to see what you missed out on!

“A group of the Front Brake Brethren gathered in St. Louis for the weekend. They spent Saturday at one of the Midwest’s greatest indoor parks, Ramp Riders. The guys had their way with the five foot street spine, for most of the day. Sunday we had mass at the nicest church I have attended, Sk8 Liborius. This colassal church was built in the 1880s and is now filled with ramps and graffiti. Great weekend with good people.
Riders: Corey Bradley, Matt Lough, Billy Woodfin, Dan Hylton, David Buseman, Nick Harkins, T.J. Henderson, Bobbie Altiser, and Paddy Gross.

Ketch Bikes – Matt Lough 2014 Edit

December 23, 2014

Check out this dialed new video featuring Matt Lough putting in work on parks and street spots around Chicago for Ketch Bikes! Matt brings plenty of style and a big bag of tricks, combined with some great film work making for a real good watch! Take a look!

“Matt Lough…a name that is ever so familiar in the Chicagoland area. Whether it’s because of his dry humor, tall lanky body, super positive attitude, or his destruction on a BMX bike. All I know Is all those traits equal one badass human.
Matt and I have been working on this piece since late spring. We’ve had some set backs with work schedules, weather, injury etc., but did not let that affect the outcome of this finish video.
So here it is.
Locations include: Chicago, Northbrook and Joliet, IL.
Enjoy.

Spy Optics – Matt Lough

November 14, 2013

Here’s one we had sent over today featuring Matt Lough putting together some great riding at his local park for Spy Optics grassroots team. Take a peek! Well worth a look!

“Matt Lough has been killing…ever since he was in the womb of his mother! Matt and I literally spent 3-4 hours filming this edit on one of the windiest days I’ve ever shot on at The Aurora, IL Skatepark. Glidecam and wind does not make a good couple. lol Needless to say, we got this short and sweet edit done. Hope you enjoy the soothing sounds of the wind and some signature Queen guitar solo.

FTL X 217 BMX – LA Clippers

October 14, 2013

Whether you would have known it or not just watching this video, this new one from the Follow The Leader guys and the 217 BMX crew is a perfect example of what BMX is all about. Both crews ended up in Los Angeles and ultimately ended up bumping into each other at a hotel which lead to them spending a few days cruising spots and stacking clips for this trip, and creating a really good friendship. Between the clips and good times that happened by accident almost, this is why we travel. Enjoy!

“Stack’n clips is all we do!
This edit contains some of the best AMs in bmx today but don’t expect all bangers. This isn’t that type of edit. Instead this is what a vacation for people that go hard all year long looks like. We didn’t take filming seriously and rarely brought the cameras out, choosing to ride and have fun over turning it into what some consider a task. With a crew this heavy, you know everyone would be gettin clippers any time the cameras came out. The idea was to have a great time and if we got stuff, cool, if not who cares?
This started for us with Mitchell winning a spot in Red Bull Phenom this summer, we got flown out to Los Angeles for a week at the end of July during X-Games and Red Bull put us up in the Millennium Biltmore in downtown LA. During check-in we happened to meet “the Bill’s” (Perry and Malkotsis) who were on their own trip out in Cali for a couple weeks. They weren’t able to stay in the room they had originally planned so we figured why not share our room with them. What followed would be not only one of the top 5 bmx trips I’ve been on but one of the best weeks of my life. Everything worked out perfectly from the time we left for the airport to the moment we pulled back into my drive making the entire experience nothing but amazing. This edit is comprised of footage the two Billy’s and I collected during a few times we happened to take the cameras with riding. We found ourselves riding pretty much all day and night the entire time. There are some guest clips some of the other Phenom dudes and some fellow midwestern cats that we also met by pure chance. Hope you enjoy the edit and checkout ftlbmx.com and 217bmx.com for more content from both crews. Thanks one last time to Red Bull and all the people we shared memories with in the wild wild west.
