Brian Kachinsky Bike Check

June 8, 2015

If there’s one guy that we always love catching up with, it’s Brian Kachinsky. Brian is always getting into something new and exciting and is never slowing down — unless he’s taking a gnarly slam, which happens from time to time. Brian recently joined the GT Bicycles team and we’re pretty excited about that because it seems like there has been a lot of energy going back into that program over the past year. We had noticed a photo of his bike a little while back and spotted a handful of prototype parts on it, so we figured now was a great time to catch up with Brian and take a closer look at the BMX bike that he calls his these days. Let’s take a closer look!

Work In Progress: Bob Manchester at the Skatepark of Malaga

June 8, 2015

For this episode of Mike King’s “Work In Progress” series, he follows Bob Manchester around at his job doing construction before heading off to Malaga, Spain to ride Ruben Alcantara’s skatepark with some of the Villa Road crew! This has a ton of amazing riding from Bob, along with some clips of Matt Priest and Liam Eltham for good measure. After you check out this video, check out more in the Villa Road Trip to Malaga Video which was filmed at the same time as this. This is a MUST SEE BMX video for sure.

“Despite being a ‘pro rider’ Bob Manchester spends 8 hours a day getting his hands dirty with hard graft on building sites. But there’s a reason he does this job – he can walk away every day at 5:30, super amped to ride, no less. He proves it in this video with a weekend jaunt to Málaga where he rides the incredible park designed by Rubén Alcántara. The combination of such a perfect setup and Bob’s formidable skills is nothing short of sublime.” – Epic TV

Insight: Radio Bikes – Siren Frame

June 5, 2015

Is it time for a new BMX frame? Are you looking for something shiny? What about something that will hold up to whatever you throw at it whether it’s park, street or dirt? Our friends at Radio Bikes dropped one of their Siren frames on our front door step to take a closer look at just what makes the frame so special. We figured it would be a good idea to give you guys a closer look, too! So let’s get into this one!

It’s been a little while since we have hit up Trent McDaniel to see what was new with him. We caught wind the other day that he was just about to build up a fresh new bike thanks to Hoffman Bikes and Division Brand, so we figured that there was no better time than now to check in with him! Let’s take a closer look at this dialed bike along with a few extra questions to find out what else is new with him!

Insight: G-Shock – GB6900B Watch

June 3, 2015

It’s funny how technology has evolved and changed over the years and you find new ways to connect different things you use throughout the day to one thing you never really thought you would have the capability of doing. The other day our friends at The Watch Hut hit us up to see if we had any interest in checking out one of the G-Shock watches the carry. Instantly, we started thinking that it might be a good idea because we’ve seen them involved with BMX quite a bit over the years sponsoring events and different riders like Nigel Sylvester. We remembered a promo video Nigel did a little while back for the GB6900B and figured that would be a good one to check out. Let’s take a closer look at this watch.

Lee Musselwhite Interview

June 2, 2015

Photos by John Williams & Nick Wotton

When we look at flatland, it’s pretty crazy because it has its own world and place in BMX. The riding is on a whole different level, the tricks have different names and there’s no denying that the work and effort it takes to actually begin to master the tricks would make most kids these days cry and hide behind their X-Box. Over the years, we’ve been becoming bigger and bigger fans of flatland just because it’s pretty easy to appreciate something so incredibly challenging. Plus, it seems like a lot of street guys are starting to see how good it looks mixed into their lines as well.
One rider in particular that we have always been big fans of is Lee Musselwhite. Lee is one of those riders that isn’t the kind of guy who is going to put out a video just for the sake of having footage from a new location, but he is pretty known for putting out a video when he has done something new. A little while back, he had a video drop that was filled with his original moves and we knew that there was no way we could skip out on getting to know the guy a little better.
Thanks to Effraim over at Flat Matters, we got ahold of Lee and hit him with a ton of questions. Let’s get to know the Spiderglide master!

The Shadow Conspiracy – “What Could Go Wrong” Trailer

June 2, 2015

The anticipated DVD from The Shadow Conspiracy “What Could Go Wrong” is due out in August and it’s bound to be an absolute BANGER of a BMX video. They just released the trailer for the video and it’s just over 2 minutes of what we can describe as a WILD RIDE through three years of filming. We CANNOT WAIT to see this video!

“What could go wrong? A question every rider asks themselves before trying something new. Sometimes the answer is good and sometimes, it’s bad. You might find yourself rolling away from a set of stairs smiling ear to ear, or you may find yourself at the bottom of that same set of stairs bloody and beaten. There’s never a definite answer. Whatever happens though, in the end, it’s really about how you got there.

Hit play to watch the new trailer for “What Could Go Wrong?”, the third full-length video from The Shadow Conspiracy coming August 2015!

Here’s a BMX video we have been waiting to see since the trailer dropped the other day! A little while back the Mankind team made their way to Seville, Spain to see just what the city had to offer. They ended up coming across a ton of amazing spots and with a crew like this, you know they didn’t let it go to waste! Check out this MUST SEE video they put together from the trip. Everything from the riding to the spots to the filming and editing make this one a great watch.

“The Mankind Bike Co. europe team has spent two weeks in Seville and experienced there a memorable time. We would like to say thank you again too all the nice people, who have made this project possible and made it such a really special time for us.
