“With 200 registered from all corners of the country and other parts of Europe like UK, grece, Germany or France, “Rubén Alcántara” Skatepark climbed their slat once more… With one of the best bowls of the world, the level in this discipline was unbeatable, people as “Juanillo” from Chile destroyed them minds doing a whip in a 7 mts transfer ,winning 200€ as Best Trick. The “follow me” of Sergio Layos, Kevin Kalkoff and Greg Illingworth left certainly speechless to the public with its incredible airs. After a very cold Monster began the new of this year, the M.O.R.(Money Obstacles race) the truth is that had great acceptance from the riders and that achieved its goal… Disconnecting a little tricks and having fun!! Cristian Toledo made the best time with 11, 37seconds taking 100€!
Then at dirt continued stressing the flow with Miguel Cuesta to the head, as a result took their € 200 for Best Style, some spectacular tricks as 360 Seatgrab Indian’s “juanillo” also did we skip surprised. The Street was savage, many riders wanting to give it all, so we had to make 4 groups to ride well… Courage Adams or Jason Eustathiou certainly is carried several 5€ thanks to its softness and flow. The Canary Javi Castilla won other €200 with the best creativity with a oppo tooth to crank 360… The public was happier than ever with the amount of awards which are pulled from the Truck… over €1000 in stuff like Vans Shoes a United frames/ bars, Oakley Sunglasses or polaroid cameras just by upload a photo on Instagram… And the after party… to say that there are still people’s Party, says it is all!

The Chile Road Trip

November 11, 2016

Every once in a while we will get a submission that catches our eye. In this case, today we received a bunch of photos from a trip that Sebastian Venegas, Cristian Oñate, Cristobal Leyton, Enzo Villalon and Claudio Miranda Diaz took over in Chile recently. This one is interesting because Claudio kept a journal of the days events. Although it wasn’t the craziest trip ever, it looks like they had a great time and took in some sights and even caught a few good sessions along the way. Take a look!

Words & Photos by Claudio Miranda Diaz

“Thursday 20th, October 2016
In exactly one more week we start our journey to the city of Antofagasta, Chile. The reason? … thats the real question. Ahead are 7 days of travel, 5 riders and 1 department. Posibly like in all TRAVELS, the answer of that question is the search of that incredibe sensation called freedom, where we are pleased to feel a habitant of the earth, love to feel small before the planet and above all, save the best of every moment in our minds.

Day 1. Thursday
October 27th. 7:08 am. After sleeping only 1 hour, we woke up to realize that we where going to miss our flight, wich departted was at 8:15 am. Being the fastest we could, we made it to the airport at 7:36 am, but the flight was already closed like 7 mins before. After some arguing and paying a small fee we boarded the next flight at 10:30 am. After 1 hour and 50 min of flight we arrived at 12:20 hrs, in a desert with a very dry landscape. Antofagasta is located in the north of Chile. It is the 5th most populated city in our country and its development is in the base of the minery, so the city esthetically isn’t the prettiest place in our country, but its considered the capital of steet riding. At 13:40 hrs we where already settled in. Feeling very tired we spent the day chilling by the coastline of the city, resting and buying some food for the week.

Day 2. Friday
Today, already settled and rested we start the day full throttle. We woke up at 10:30 and spent some time chilling in the pool, then took a shower and made some lunch. We were out at 14:00 with our bikes in search of shoes for Oñate, then to a rent a car so the next day we could go to fulfill one of the goals in the trip. That goal was to take some shots of the milky way in the paranal observatory and the desert hand.
After that we made our way to the local skatepark, that is a very fun bowl. We spent all day in there and came back to the flat at 22 hrs, to eat and sleep, because tomorrow we have a very busy day.

Day 3. Saturday
6 am the alarm is already ringing. We woke up and then headed out to the Antofagasta main spot to watch the sunrise. Aprox at 9 am we head back to the flat and then to the paranal observatory at 130 km outside of Antofagasta at 2635 m above the sea. We arrive and we had to wait like 2 hours to get in. After a little tour of the facilities and the telescopes, we went out into the desert to take that photo I was waiting for… the Milky way. We were out there at 23 hrs enyoing the clear sky in the desert. After that we went home to eat something and sleep again. We drove 400 km that day.

Day 4: Sunday
We woke up very tired, and it’s already 14 hrs and we are just finishing eating, but today its going to be mainly BMX. First we went to the mall center to get some batteries, then to the coast. Today turned out to be very boring. We spent almost all the day in one spot. Later that day we went to a skatepark that had no bikes allowed, but we still managed to get some riding time in at this spot that was in the entrance of a mall. Tomorrow we hope to go to Antofagasta to ride the local skatepark.

Day 5 and 6: Monday and Tuesday
Today we were out at 12 pm to Calama, at 220 km aprox of Antofagasta. Here we thought about spending the night in a hostal, but changed our minds, bought a tent, and went to San Pedro of Atacama to spend the night there, in the Moon Valley.

After spending some time in a Little town, at 12 am we went to the highway to find a place to put the tent, then in the desert we made a fire, some burgers and then went to sleep.
At 4:30 am we woke up, and headed to the geysers at a place called Tatio, the bigest ones in the southern hemisphere and the 3rd in the world.
Aprox at 82 km of San Pedro of Atacama, at 4300 km above the sea level, we arrived at this spot to wait for dawn at 6:40 am.

At 12 pm we were back in San Pedro of Atacama and then heading to Calama to get out bikes that were in the house of a local rider (Luis Gutierrez). Finally we head back to Antofagasta.
1300 km in 4 days. Not all the riding we were expecting, but still we had a blast. Achieved trip?

Madera BMX – “10 Year Mixtape” Erik Elstran & Tom Villarreal

November 10, 2016

Madera have begun uploading the individual sections from their “10 Year Mixtape” that dropped online a little while back. This starts off with Erik Elstran and Tom Villarreal‘s section that’s packed full of creativity, big gaps and style! Hit play and enjoy!

“Madera BMX – Erik Elstran/Tom Villarreal Split – 2016 Video

The beginning of 2016 marked 10 years of existence for Madera. From three simple products to a full line of parts, we have grown thanks to two things: the people who have supported us and the riders who represent us. So, to celebrate 10 years of American-made BMX parts, 10 years of riding and traveling, and 10 years of great times, we think it’s fitting to showcase the riders who keep us going in a video made for the people who have kept us going. The team, some old and some new, have worked hard for the last 9 months to do what they do best and share it with all of you who have supported us in the past, continue to support us now, or may support us in the future. Check out what makes us tick, what we are proud to share, and what we hope gets you stoked. Thanks for all of your support and here’s to another 10 years!

November 3, 2016

Wow, this is absolutely amazing.If some of you remember, quite a while back Jason Phelan put together a video for a Kickstarter campaign to raise money for a crazy idea he had involving boats, water and more. We never really heard anything more beyond that. Then today this banger of a video popped up online an we got a look at Jason throwing down on a few different ramp setups tied together by boats! Hit play and enjoy this one. We know for a fact you have never watched a video quite like this! Amazing setup, great riding, awesome film work… Really enjoyed this! Nice work, Jason!

“Dream project come true! Jason Phelan takes BMX to the middle of the Holy Loch, Scotland.
Combine deep sea diving and BMX and you get one hell of an idea. Jason has teamed up with The Professional Diving Academy (PDA) in Dunoon, Scotland to take BMX to the sea.”

Photogallery: Money For Trick 2016

November 1, 2016

Last weekend was the annual Money For Trick contest at the Ruben Alcantara skatepark over in Malaga, Spain! The concept is pretty straight forward, you come out and ride and have a good time, and you win money and prizes all along the way! This year was nothing short of amazing with 200 riders that registered to ride the different events from the park and street contest to the Money Obstacles Race and more. This photogallery contains photos from throughout the day from pros to the young guns. Plenty of smiles! Below you can find a few words from Fernadno Marmolejo who organized the event and took all of these photos!

“With 200 registered riders from all corners of the country and other parts of Europe like the UK, Greece, Germany and France, the “Rubén Alcántara” Skatepark was packed once more. With one of the best bowls in the world, the level of riding going on was unbeatable. Riders like Juanillo from Chile blew minds doing a massive whip transfer, winning 200€ for the Best Trick contest. The “Follow Me” contest with Sergio Layos, Kevin Kalkoff and Greg Illingworth left everyone speechless with their incredible airs and style. After everyone had some Monster, we began the new event for this year, the M.O.R.(Money Obstacles Race). This event a had great response from the riders and that achieved its goal… Not focusing on the tricks and just having fun! Cristian Toledo made the best time overall with 11.37 seconds taking the 100€ prize!

After that, the dirt contest followed with some amazing flow from Miguel Cuesta, who took €200 for the Best Style. The Street contest was savage, there were a lot of riders wanting to give it their all, so we had to make 4 groups for this event… Courage Adams and Jason Eustathiou ended up with plenty of 5€ bills thanks to their amazing control and style. The Canary, Javi Castilla, won €200 for the best creativity with an oppo tooth to crank arm grind to 360… The crowd was loving every second of it and we gave away over €1000 in prizes like Vans Shoes, United frames and bars, Oakley Sunglasses and Polaroid cameras just by upload a photo on Instagram.

After things wrapped up, the after party started… All we can say is it was crazy!

Another year of Money For Trick down, with the REAL BMX atmosphere all day long… The event never would have been possible without the unconditional support of Monster Energy and the collaboration of United BMX, Vans, Oakley, BMX Union and Wallride Mag. Thank you for your support!” – Fernadno Marmolejo
