Unclicked Podcast – Corey Walsh – Coming Out

April 9, 2021

The Unclicked Podcast is back with a fresh one! Corey Walsh makes his fifth appearance on the show, and this time he goes into depth talking about coming out and the whole reason behind why he finally made the decision to let the world know. This is a real interesting listen, so hit play and take it all in! Stoked for Corey and the huge amount of pressure off his shoulders.

“Got an unscheduled/special episode of Unclicked for you. Corey Walsh recently made it public that he’s gay. While he may not be the first openly gay rider in the history of BMX, he is the first major pro to come out at what is considered to be the peak of his game. I truly believe that Corey’s story, message, and outlook are important for everyone to hear. Be nice to people, because as Corey makes clear, you never know what they’re going through…” – Our BMX

Aaron Ross – Least Favorite / Most Favorite

April 2, 2021

Over the years Aaron Ross has done a bunch of video parts, and all of them kicked a lot of ass. Here’s a video where he talks about his favorite video part, and his least favorite part. This takes a look at the parts, along with stories and insights from Aaron on what it took to get these parts done.

“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, with one of the most colorful video part histories in BMX, the one and only, Aaron Ross. If you’d like to watch the parts he discusses without commentary, click below.

Our BMX caught up with John Sands as he put in some work at a few of his favorite spots, stacking a ton of clips. If you aren’t familiar with John by now, this should put him on your radar. Hit play and watch him stack those clips!

“John and I went to 3 of John’s favorite spots for his spot crusher video. John wanted to ride spots he rides every day so that he could challenge himself with getting something new at every spot. We ended up finishing just before it got dark outside, and he absolutely killed it! John is one of the most well rounded riders I have ever met.” — Dalton Voss
