Scotty Cranmer – Kitchen Skatepark Contest

April 25, 2017

This past weekend Scotty Cranmer, Matty Cranmer and Big Boy took a trip out to South Bend, Indiana for The Kitchen Skatepark Contest that Brett Banasiewicz threw to help raise money for Scotty. Here’s a look at what the guys got into, along with highlights from the contest!

“We can check off another road trip down in the books. My little brother Matty, Big Boy and myself drove 12 hours down to South Bend Indiana to head out to the kitchen skatepark for a crazy BMX contest. Big Boy drove thru the night and to my surprise we survived. Today is day one of the contest, and we have beginner, intermediate, expert, and pro. Expert finals, Girls finals, and pro finals are tomorrow. We had a one shot contest, and Big Boy might have lost the champion title. Brett came top with a new flair challenge. I ate some pasta for a sick clip, and got completely soaked by a water bottle. We had so much fun and this is what BMX riding is all about.” – Scotty Cranmer

Scotty Cranmer – Bike Manual Challenge

April 2, 2017

Scotty Cranmer dropped a new video from a challenge that Big Boy, Cory Berglar, Mike Shimak and Brooklyn took on with matty Cranmer as the official judge. The challenge? See who can manual the furthest without a front wheel. Anyone who has ever tried to manual without a front wheel should know it’s a completely different game when you pull the weight of the front wheel, plus the rotational weight off. Hit play to watch these guys try and figure out the magic behind it with plenty of laughs along the way.

“Have you ever thought of riding your bike with no front wheel, probably not because it wouldn’t work. And we 110% don’t suggest that you ever try and ride your bike with out a front wheel. Somehow the crazy Big Boy convinced the crew to have a manual competition on there bikes where as soon as they lifted up for the manual the front wheel would roll away. You would be in a manual with no front wheel and who ever can hold it for the longest time would win. The dangerous part about this challenge is that if you go forward you no longer have a front wheel and its an instant flip over the bars. This contest turned out to be a ton of fun and I loved watching every minute of it so I hope you guys enjoy this one!”

Big Boy – Tailwhip Redemption

March 1, 2017

If you have been following Scotty Cranmer‘s Youtube channel since the start, there’s a good chance you remember the video when Big Boy got wrecked on a tailwhip out of a bank under an overpass. It was one of the first few videos on the channel. Since everyone was either hurt or busy, Scotty decided to challenge Big Boy to go back to that spot and redeem himself! Hit play to see Big Boy finally beat one of his worst crashes of all time.

“Since we started this channel a lot of things have changed especially ALL OF THE CREW MEMBERS BUT ONE OF THE BIGGEST CHANGES HAS BEEN FROM THE BIG BOY. IN THE PAST 14 MONTHS HE HAS LOST ABOUT 100 POUNDS and he gained not only some muscle but a lot of talent riding his BMX bike. We have seen him conquer so many challenges when it comes to doing tricks. He has mastered front flips backflips and now he is working on perfecting his tail whips. So I figured it would be time to go get redemption at the overpass where he had one of his worst crashes since the start of this channel. He accepted the challenge and we packed up the truck to get to work! It took Cory Berglar and my self to encourage big boy just like we did the last time and big boy stepped up to the occasion and brought his a game!”

Matty Cranmer Tells The Story of How He Broke His Leg

February 23, 2017

Nobody said riding BMX was safe, but if you didn’t ride and only watched Scotty Cranmer‘s Youtube channel, you would assume people breaking things is way too common. The other night Matty Cranmer broke his leg and is down for the count for 6-8 weeks. Here’s a video where Matty talks a little bit about how it all went down and tells you all the very tough details. However, now that Scotty and Matty are BOTH down, they decided they might as well be productive and teach Big Boy how to Rocket Manual. So, get the story from Matty, then watch Big Boy try and figure this classic trick out!

“OUR BAD LUCK JUST CONTINUES! MY LITTLE BROTHER MATTY JUST BROKE HIS LEG RIDING AT MY SKATEPARK ONLY FOUR DAYS BEFORE HE WAS SUPPOSED TO LEAVE FOR AUSTRALIA FOR A BMX COMPETITION THAT HE HAD BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO FOR MONTHS NOW. With Cory coming off a broken ankle, Vinny coming off two broken feet, and myself coming off a broken neck we are dwindling down. When it comes to people riding for the channel but there is one man left that loves to ride his bike and he starts today, the big boy! With me and Matty being hurt, we figured it would be an awesome opportunity to teach big boy a new trick! This time we are teaching him a rocket manual behind our bike shop! Also break down the crash footage of Matty breaking his leg!”

Matty Cranmer Airs Massive Over Big Boy

February 18, 2017

In preparation for the Vans 2017 BMX Pro Cup stop in Australia, Matty Cranmer decided to get some practice in at the Incline Club with Coach Big Boy. Here’s a look at some of the riding that went down from some over / unders, big airs and more! It looks like Big Boy was more than down to take a few hits for the cause. Check it!

“My little brother Matty and Big Boy decided to head to the skatepark while I am recovering to help Matty practice for Australia. Big Boy being Big Boy he really wanted to do some out of the ordinary stuff. So he used his body as a gauge to see wether Matty was going high enough or not. He got hit in the head, tire slide across, jumped over. Matty did some massive airs, crazy flips, and even sent a whip over the Big Boy. Overall pretty crazy session that went down and its awesome to see these guys just having so much fun!“

Crazy Incline Club Session

February 16, 2017

There’s always something crazy going down at the Incline Club…

Scotty Cranmer coming through with a video from a post-snow storm private session at the Incline Club with Matty Cranmer, Big Boy, Dom Simoncini, Cory Berglar, Brooklyn, Mike Shimak and Andrew Simoncini. Hit play to watch these guys go section to section in the park throwing down some real good riding all along the way. It’s safe to say things got pretty heated. Check it!

“So it was incredibly cold outside that day and it snowed a bit. Enough to not allow us to ride outside but not enough to do anything cool with. I told BIG BOY to round up the boys so we could have just a session at the skatepark something that we haven’t done in a while. It started out nice and light then out of no where Big Boy turned the heat up after crashing over and over again and getting mad resorting to an angry fake front flip. We hit BK’s bowl, rode the street section, and then made our way into the big bowl session. Tons of crashes, tail whips, backflips, flairs, front flips, and just good times. I even got a trick today as well. Comment below and let us know what you thought about this session who had your favorite trick.” – Scotty Cranmer

Big Boy Tailwhips Again

February 11, 2017

Scotty Cranmer has been keeping things in line since he’s been back home. This time around Scotty, Matty Cranmer and Big Boy made a trip to a skatepark in Pennsylvania for a session. Scotty calls out a bunch of tricks for both of these guys and they went to work… I mean, Big Boy even threw a few tailwhips into the mix. Check out what went down!

“Finally a somewhat nice day has come in what has been a very cold February winter. Matty, BIG BOY and I went to a random skatepark by my cousins work for an awesome session. We rolled up there and it was a skatepark full of skateboarders, but they were absolutely awesome and they had no issue with us getting a session in with them. Matty and BIG BOY did a lot on some ramps that they thought were going to be to small to ride Matty made BIG BOY learn how to do a bunch of new tricks like a whip over the bank to bank box. I called BIG BOY out on a bunch of tricks and as usual he gets completely broke off in some way and takes a crazy crash. I can’t tell you how awesome it is to be back and going around to skatepark to skatepark with these boys. Thanks for watching.”
