DIY BMX Pegs

Leave a Comment

Mike Fede hit us with a link to a video from a little DIY idea he had saw a rider do, and figured he would test out. If you have ever wanted to try plastic pegs, but you don’t want to spend the money… Here’s a cheap option that apparently works… Sort of. All you have to do is get some PVC pipe that fits over your peg snuggly, and you’re good to go. Take a look!

I feel like this should have been in Dustin Lee‘s cheap man’s Top 10 BMX Life Hacks video.

“In today’s video we keep the plastic theme going from the last video with plastic tires, and now to PVC plastic peg sleeves. We went into it a little blind with the sizing of the PVC but we make it work.” – Mike Fede

“Today we decide to take one of johns ideas for the will it ride series and give it a try. This is pex pipe for tires. Pex pipe is a form of PVC that is flexible. This was a lot of fun to do and we plan on bringing it back in the near future with some added ideas.“

Mike Fede – Kicker Ramp At The Skatepark

Leave a Comment

Here’s a fresh video Mike Fede sent through from a session that him and a few friends caught at his local park, with the help of the Jumppack kicker. It’s pretty wild how you can come up with a bunch of new setups and lines at a skatepark with the help of something as simple as a kicker. This is more of a vlog, but it’s mostly all riding, so that works. Take a look!

“Today we brought out the jumpack kicker ramp for a session at Glasgow. moving the kicker around to different areas opened up more options, but it doesn’t always end well. Be sure to comment some future video ideas! Click that subscribe button and notification bell so you don’t miss a single video. Thanks for the support!” – Mike Fede

Scotty Cranmer – Flat Tire Death Gap 4

Leave a Comment

Scotty Cranmer decided it was time for one last game of Flat Tire Death Gap at the Incline Club before it closed…

With the Incline Club closing, Scotty Cranmer figured they better get as much out of the place before it officially closed today, so he had the crew play a round of the ever dangerous and hilarious Flat Tire Death Gap! Check out what went down and who ended up rolling away without a nail in the tire!

“We decided to do a flat tire death gap one last time at my skate park before we close down! A bunch of professional riders attempt to jump their BMX bikes as far as possible and they have to clear a bed of screws and avoid getting a flat tire to continue on! The record is broken in this challenge and two riders battle it out to be the flat tire death gap champion! Do not attempt this we are professionals.” – Scotty Cranmer

Scotty Cranmer – Blindfolded BMX Bike Battle

Leave a Comment

Scotty Cranmer had the guys toss on some Sleep Masks and play a few rounds of Footdown!

Playing footdown is already hard since you have to be completely aware of what is around you at all times so you don’t get dropped. When it comes to to riding BMX, being able to see what you’re doing a HUGE part of it. So, Scotty Cranmer and the rest of the crew decided to see what happens when you strap some sleep masks on and play a game of blind footdown. As expected, the end result was hilarious.

“In this video the boys had the idea of doing a blindfolded BMX foot down challenge and I thought they were crazy! Riding BMX bikes is very hard when you were blindfolded it’s almost impossible! In this video we do a tournament style game of foot down that requires a lot of balance and technique. Also in this game we have some new riders to the channel and they just so happen to be some of the best bike riders in the world! This game is insane but it was so much fun!” – Scotty Cranmer

Scotty Cranmer – Wheel of Misfortune Returns

Leave a Comment

The Wheel of Misfortune has made its way back to Scotty Cranmer’s channel…

Whenever the Wheel of Misfortune comes out, you know things are going to get interesting. After a little hiatus, Scotty Cranmer decided it was time to have the crew give it a go once again! This time around the whole crew decided to play a game of B-M-X with the wheel dictating what kind of add on they have to do for the tricks they call out. Check out what goes down!

“The crew got together at my skate park to play another game of wheel of misfortune on our BMX bikes! Ever since we came up with this game it has been a favorite of ours to play here on our channel! Competitive BMX tricks and different handicaps given to make them that much more difficult to complete! Even though the riders compete against each other they all had such a good time laughing the whole game! But at the end only one rider can become the wheel of misfortune champion!” – Scotty Cranmer

Want to learn how to do vader jams or vader slides on a BMX bike? Here’s a video showing you how to get it done.

If you have ever wanted to learn how to do Vader Jams or Vader Slides, but you can’t figure it out, here’s a video for you. Scotty Cranmer had Jared Heitzman do a little lesson for the crew to learn how to get this trick done. This is not an easy one to learn, so give this a watch, see how the guys did with it, then grab your bike and give it a shot!

“Ever wanted to know how Jared does faders so well? In todays video he tried to teach the boys all the steps to doing a good Vader. Bk, Big Boy, Vinny, Fede, and Dom all got involved. Most of the guys learned pretty well but Big Boy took more falls in one video then everyone combined might have done this month.” – Scotty Cranmer

Scotty Cranmer – Game of Tranny Ball

Leave a Comment

Scotty Cranmer decided it was time for the guys to learn how to play the Tranny Ball game…

If you’re a fan of all the games Scotty Cranmer has the guys play on the channel, you are in for a treat because he decided to pull out a new one called Tranny Ball that mixes dodgeball, tag and riding all into one game. This is an interesting one and it actually looks like a pretty good time. Take a look at what went down and who took the win!

“Back in the day I used to play a game called tranny ball, a lot of you may know it as spud which is a game I’m sure a lot of us played when we were younger. It’s a mix of dodgeball and tag but there is a twist on our game when you get out you have to do a trick that the crew picks for you!” – Scotty Cranmer
