X Games Real BMX 2020 – Trailer

August 12, 2020

There’s been a lot of events cancelled in 2020, but the X Games Real BMX video contest didn’t get shut down! Here’s the trailer for the videos that are set to drop August 17th! This year, like all the past years, is absolutely STACKED and it’s looking like these guys went all out to produce some heavy videos. We’re especially excited to see Julian Molina‘s video since he’s been killing it with one leg for years and never disappoints with his videos. Either way, this is going to be a super good mix of riding from each of these guys. So get stoked.

Nathan Williams – Least Favorite / Most Favorite

August 5, 2020

As you all know by now, Nathan Williams has been an absolute beast on a bike for a long time, and this new Least Favorite / Most Favorite video that Our BMX dropped is a good reminder of it. In the video above, Nathan watches his old “Nobody Special” part, which was one of his first video parts ever, followed up with his Etnies “Chapters” section from about two years ago. Both sections are absolute bangers and a reminder of just how good he has always been on a bike. Although Nathan didn’t have a ton to say about his “Nobody Special” part, there’s SOOOOO many tricks in that, that we would love to see him doing again like the massive backrail fufanus for example. It’s funny to see how much Nathan experimented with different styles when he was younger, then seeing his very solidified style in his “Chapters” part that is definitely his own. Needless to say, this is a really good watch, so hit play and take it all in.

Get ready for Nathan’s “Why Not?” video that’s set to drop August 8th! Get the details here — gumroad.com/nathanwilliamswhynot

“The basic concept here is that we’re going to sit down riders who have had a plethora of video parts and have them discuss their least favorite (not to be confused with not liking) and most favorite. Jog the ol’ memory box and talk about a different period of their life and what went into making those parts…

Next up, via request from the comments on the last video, we have one of the quintessential video part riders of the modern day, Nathan Williams. If you’d like to watch the parts he discusses without commentary, click below.” – Our BMX
