Nowear BMX – Miah’s Mini Has Begun

December 2, 2025

The Nowear Compound is expanding in memory of Jaramiah Droescher.

Over the years we’ve seen the Nowear Compound in Nebraska grow and change, making for an amazing riding spot in the middle of Nebraska for everyone to ride entirely for free thanks to donations and grants that they’ve secured as a non-profit organization. Now, they’re working on their next expansion and it’s in memory of Jaramiah Droescher, who tragically passed away, with their new Miah’s Mini Ramp room. Here’s a quick video Karl Hinkley put together to show the current progress, along with what the future holds. This looks like it’s going to be amazing and definitely an amazing way to honor Jaramiah’s memory. You can learn more about the Nowear Compound and how to donate to the cause right here.

“It’s the 2025 Giving Tuesday campaign for The Nowear Compound Nonprofit.

Money from this years campaign will go directly towards an expansion project extending our already free indoor park by another 30%.
This will provide a new room housing 2 mini ramps back to back.
We have received a grant recently helping fund majority of whats needed for the project.
We need your help to cross the finish line. We began construction Oct 8th and will continue to build as soon as winters breaks.
Thank you all so much for your continued support in our efforts to help positive growth within our community and todays youth.
Kids need places to go!
Less electronics and more places for physical activities and social interaction.” –

Nowear BMX – Jameson Keese In Austin

July 22, 2025

Jameson Keese gets loose in Austin, Texas.

The crew at Nowear BMX coming through with a dialed new video featuring Jameson Keese crushing it on street spots and at House Park in Austin, Texas. Jameson brings a deep bag of tricks and plenty of style to the table, making for a real good watch. Check it!

“Nowear rider Jameson Keese and filmer David Mogonye hit the streets of Austin, TX, filming over the course of about six months.
This is Jameson’s first solo edit, where he focused on curating his own creative and technical style. At the same time, David was dialing in his filming and editing skills.

After many hours of filming and collaborating, the two came together to create this project — a product of passion, style, and dedication.” – Nowear BMX

The vibes could not have been higher. From the beautiful rider camaraderie, great local food, and stories shared around the campfire, it was a truly epic event that left everyone wanting more. This competition is here to stay with continued plans to run annually in April with a large pro purses and tons of prizes for all other classes.
