Cinema Wheel Co. – Nathan Williams Budapest Rail Battle

December 29, 2015

Nathan Williams made DIG‘s list of the Riders of the Year this year, so to celebrate, Cinema Wheel Co. released this BMX video of Nathan having a battle with a kinked rail in Budapest. Now, it’s safe to say most of us would struggle really hard just double pegging this rail, but the reason Nathan was having trouble is because he was trying to icepick grind the whole thing… Switch. Watch as he battles it out and takes the win in the video above!

“Nathan Williams is DIG’s 2015 Rider of the Year. Here he is battling a kinked rail in Budapest during a Cinema filming trip. Nathan is the king of switch!

Nathan probably doesn’t want to be at the top of this list and that’s just one of the reasons why he’s here. Despite the fact that you may not have seen a ton of footage from Nathan since his insane Above Below section at the end of last year, he’s been working away on some damned magic jewels and when you see it all you’re gonna freak. We should all know how good this guy is but when his etnies and United sections drop there’ll be no dis-believers! One of the coolest dudes to ever do it and one guy who never fully gets the accolades that we feel he deserves.

In The Cut – Nashville

December 11, 2015

Ever wondered what it would be like to go on a trip with Dan Lacey, Bruno Hoffmann, Dakota Roche, Nathan Williams, Shane Weston and Corey Martinez? Well, here’s a pretty good look at what it’s like in this “In the Cut” video DIG dropped from some time these guys spent in Nashville together. It’s not all riding, and there’s a lot of laughs and good times had off the bike that this gives you some insight on the way things usually go on a laid back trip like this. We have a feeling whatever they were filming for will be online sooner than later and it’s bound to kick a lot of ass! Get stoked!

“In September we joined Dan Lacey, Bruno Hoffmann, Dakota Roche, Shane Weston, Nathan Williams, Corey Martinez and Rich Forne in Nashville TN for a week of filming for Monster Energy and hanging out. Despite some undesirable police attention, that you have have been privy to if you follow our instagram account, the trip was dreamy much like the spots and the food stops, and when you have two locals like Nathan and Corey showing you around you’d be hard pressed to go wrong. Here’s a look at what we got up to along with some fun clips from the crew.” – DIG

Etnies In Vegas

November 6, 2015

DIG just dropped this raw cut of footage from the Etnies trip to Las Vegas to film for the “Chapters” video. Check out a few clips that didn’t make the cut from Aaron Ross and Nathan Williams above, then check out some real good photos and a write up from the trip over on the DIG website.

“While everyone left Interbike in zombie mode a few months back in Las Vegas, Nathan Williams, Aaron Ross and filmer Will Stroud decided to prolong their stay and battle some of that Nevada heat, all in the name of the upcoming etnies full-length, ‘Chapters’. Needless to say those guys snagged some insane clips but until you can see those in the DVD we’ve got some extras from their time in the desert. Our man Kevin Connors went along to shoot photos and provide some spot location assistance.”

Red Bull – The Big Rig Holiday

July 28, 2015

Here’s one from Red Bull that we have been waiting for all week! They recently piled a unique crew of riders together in an RV for a trip around the Northwest to hit up street spots. Watch as Nathan Williams, Reed Stark, Alex Kennedy, Corey Martinez, David Grant, Christian Rigal and Matt Roe all go to work on spots with their different styles making some some amazing riding. That rail that Reed Stark does is absolutely UNREAL. It looks like he took a serious beating but didn’t let the rail win! Hell yeah, Reed!

“The great outdoors… and I’m not talking about the leafy industrial estate out of town with the awesome rails that you don’t get kicked out of. I’m going on about forests, waterfalls and one hell of a big rig ploughing its way through the great Pacific Northwest!

The great outdoors… and I’m not talking about the leafy industrial estate out of town with the awesome rails that you don’t get kicked out of. I’m going on about forests, waterfalls and one hell of a big rig ploughing its way through the great Pacific Northwest!

The plan was simple, well, to be honest it was non-existent; take eight friends, both old and new, meet up in Portland, Oregon. Then pile everyone into a 40-foot-long RV and see what happens!

The heavily-laden RV consisted of a pretty eclectic list of names, including Nathan Williams, Reed Stark, Alex Kennedy, Corey Martinez, David Grant, Christian Rigal, and Matt Roe.

The ‘plan’ was so loose that we hadn’t even decided on which direction to take.
After some deliberation and many blank faces we set the compass for south and headed for Salem and Eugene and possibly some of the smaller towns along the way. We soon realised this was probably the worst idea we could have come up with…

Driving an enormous recreational vehicle into small peaceful towns with eight dudes hanging out of every window obviously didn’t go down too well, let alone help with finding spots and being able to ride them long enough to film a clip! Needless to say, we encountered our fair share of small town cop mentalities and bafflingly idiotic reasoning. But despite that we got some pretty amazing bike riding documented in between our troubles, and Reed got his crazy 180-degree curved rail in Eugene, so it wasn’t all in vain.”
