Fit Bike Co. – Holla Wood

June 7, 2016

Fit Bike Co. coming through with a dialed ne BMX video featuring their whole crew getting down on spots around Hollywood. As expected with a heavy squad like this, there was plenty of amazing riding on all the spots they came across. Hit play and take it all in!

“It had been a minute since we had the PRO squad in one spot, so we decided to get the dudes together to shoot the shit and mob around LA for a few days in May.

Since this sort of thing doesn’t happen all the time, we enlisted Jeff Z. to shoot some stills and Scott Marceau to make moving pictures.

We weren’t trying to invite anybody to “Bangerville” with this one, but a few days in Hollyweird with the boys went down a treat. The takeaway from our pow wow was that we should pow wow more often, which means the FIT van may be showing up at spots near you soon – so keep ’em peeled.

Shout out to Mr. Marceau for capturing the crew!

Riders: Jordan Hango, Morgan Long, Brandon Begin, Matt Nordstrom, Ben Lewis, Shawn McIntosh, Brian Foster, Van Homan, Tom Dugan, Justin Spriet and Ethan Corriere.

Filmed/Edited by: Scott Marceau

Music: “Morgan” by the Cloud Nothings”

Fit Bike Co. in Arizona: The Outta Hand Trip

March 1, 2016

Here’s one from a trip to Arizona some of the Fit Bike Co. team took to Arizona a little while back! This starts out with a wild ledge ride and doesn’t slow down until the end! Amazing riding and spots in this. Get on it!

“Brandon Begin, Morgan Long, & Austin Aughinbaugh trip over to Arizona and meet up with fellow Fit shredder / Phoenix resident Troy Blair. Such a rad and diverse crew of riders putting their mark on the many amazing spots that AZ has to offer. From technical to unorthodox to pegless and straight up gnarly, these dudes have you covered.

“The trip was outta hand from the beginning with minimal planning and last minute changes. Begin, Austin Aughinbaugh, and myself were the only riders able to make it and Chris Mortenson jumped in last minute to shoot photos. We headed to Vegas and picked up Troy Blair from a realities house on the way. Malouf was the man behind the camera and giving us a place to stay and he made sure that good times were had from Vegas to AZ on and off the bikes. Tony and The gully factory house and affiliate Reed Stark had the Fit crew in the best of vibes and led to never ending jokes. From the partying to the jokes to the riding everything got outta hand and as I write this we are all in a group message trying to plan another trip out to AZ.” – Morgan Long
