Deluxe – “Part Duex” – Intro at Blue Bench

July 1, 2013

I was wondering when Deluxe would upload their latest DVD, “Part Duex”, online for our viewing pleasure. Turns out they’re starting to upload sections starting today with the intro from Mike Saavedra’s trails, Blue Bench, in California! This place is sooooo incredibly dialed and this whole video kicks ass, so get stoked!

“This is the Intro to Part Deux, our second full-length production…
For our second full-length film, we decided to mix things around from Welcome To Deluxe. This time out we ventured to some choice spots that our team riders created and nurture on a daily basis – from Southern California to Pennsylvania, from the Midlands of England to Southern France. We also took the team on tour to discover new spots, cook up some lines, throw some shovel-loads, and have a good time. Because that’s what we’re all about… enjoy.

Mike Saavedra and the Roaster Coaster

June 16, 2013

Deluxe‘s Mike Saavedra has been the man with a plan at Woodward when it comes to trails lately. This video I spotted on Can You Dig It gives you a look at his latest creation at Woodward West, the Roaster Coaster. Essentially it’s a super dialed pump track with rails and other features mixed in that look super fun to ride. Definitely take a look!

“Mike Saavedra talks about the new dirt addition to Woodward West. After Mike and his crew came out to camp to work on the dirt jumps, they were asked to create a new dirt park in The Junction. Check out Mike’s Roaster Coaster pump track and dirt jumps in Platform 10.

Deluxe – Max Bimar Cruising at Riverside

January 17, 2013

Spotted this gem over on Can You Dig It. Check out some footage of Deluxe‘s Max Bimar soaking up some sun and cruising the trails in Riverside with Mike Saavedra. Plenty of helmet cam goodness in this. You can’t ever go wrong with some fresh clips from Max! Plus, he even did the music for this. Check it!

““2 weeks of trail riding in Riverside only for fun.
Thanks to Christine Skjold, Mike and Sal Saavedra and to all I met during this trip.
Also an advert for my Deluxe frame called the Sacre Bleu – out now in the best shops.
Proper trail frame.
Approved I must say.” – Max

Mike Saavedra at Woodward Tahoe

November 28, 2012

Hell yeah! This is awesome.

“As fall was setting in, Deluxe pro Mike Saavedra expressed worry that the trails he built at Woodward Camp’s new Lake Tahoe location wouldn’t last much longer. Tahoe at the end of summer sounded like a perfect weekender to me, so two days later, we were packed and headed out on an 8-hour overnight drive. When we arrived, we were in luck — the trails were in good shape since Mike, his brother, and their crew built them months ago. After a good day of riding went down, we had a little extra time on our hands so we went all over Lake Tahoe — climbing on waterfalls, swimming at the beach, and even a wild night in Reno with Cesar Lopez. All in all, the trip was way too much fun and now we all can’t wait to go back when the snow is good.” Aaron Nardi / ESPN BMX
