Well, Ronnie Bonner’s nephew, Austin Bonner, put together this rad video show casing the building of the bike and it has made it to the finals of a video contest that Nikon is doing. Watch the video above, then go give it a vote!
Monster – Dan Lacey: Nature of the Beast
ABSOLUTE. MUST. SEE. You can always count on Dan Lacey to come through with an amazing BMX video. What happens when you team him up with filmer Rich Forne on some incredible spots around Tel Aviv, Israel? Well, you get a serious banger that you cannot pass up watching.
“Dan Lacey + filmer Rich Forne + The Streets of Tel Aviv = 1 thing… An epic video and that is exactly what our latest release #NatureOfTheBeast is !!!” – Monster
Through The Lens: Creative Minds – Nick Sawyers
When it came time to get the third edition of “Creative Minds” done I had no problems picking the next artist to feature and that happens to be Nick Sawyers. It was a name that I wasn’t necessarily familiar with but after realizing all of the stuff that he has done in the BMX world I quickly realized that I had already been into his work without even realizing who he was. It’s not every day that the BMX world is graced with talented artists so when it happens it’s rad to see them get the opportunities to create and showcase their skills within the BMX community. Nick is a jack-of-all-trades, can work in a multitude of mediums, and has a sense of humor that shines through in almost every piece he creates. Take a few minutes and get to know someone who is down to put in the work and do what it takes to become successful as a creative, regardless of the trials and tribulations that come right along with that.
Kent Pearson Interview
I’m not really sure when the first time I saw a video featuring Kent Pearson. Needless to say that the guy has been killing it on a BMX bike long before I even started riding and continues to do so today like a champ. I’ve definitely been a fan of his riding for quite some time now thanks to his creative front brake riding that always leaves me stoked and wanting more, it’s easy to say he’s one guy I always look forward to seeing something new from.
Recently when his latest edit dropped, it got me thinking that it would be awesome to get ahold of this guy and find out just what he’s all about. One thing lead to another and we got in contact and I quickly learned he’s a whole lot more than just a guy who knows the ways of the front brake magic game. I shot him a bunch of questions to get to know him, and here we are today! If this doesn’t get you excited about front brakes or at the very least really stoked on Kent, something is wrong with you! Enjoy!
Name: Kent Pearson
