The X Games are going down in Pat Casey’s backyard for the park and dirt portions of the contest, and the guys were there getting practice in. Here’s a look at what went down in the baking sun courtesy of Our BMX. This is bound to be a wild week!

Broc Raiford – BMX In An Airport
There’s a lot of crazy places we’ve seen BMX events at, but this is definitely one we didn’t expect. Red Bull recently set up a skate contest inside an old airport in New Orleans and invited Broc Raiford out to cruise the ramps they setup! Here’s a raw cut giving us a look at what Broc got into while cruising around the different terminals! So wild.
“Spend the day with Broc Raiford as he takes you for a bike ride INSIDE the New Orleans Airport. Yep, you read that right. Broc takes us inside as he cruises the Red Bull Terminal Takeover ramps built inside the New Orleans Airport.” – Our BMX

Boozer Jam 2021 Highlights
The annual Mike “Boozer” Brown memorial jam went down the other weekend out in California at Sheep Hills, and as expected there was a big turn out of riders from the Pro’s to the AM’s and young guns! Check out all the riding and good times in this highlight video from the day!

Corey Martinez And His Tacoma Rig
We’ve seen different camper vans and setups that people have built to do some traveling. Corey Martinez spends most of the year on the road, so he decided to build his own setup on his Toyota Tacoma to give him everything he needs while out on the road! Here’s a rig check where he breaks down his setup and what it took to build it out. Check it!
“Everything you need in one compact space? YEP! Corey takes us through the ins and outs of his Self-Built BMX specific Rig.” – Our BMX

“Gage Sharp and I shared some messages about filming a video a while back. Neither of us really clarified when till I just started showing up at rays on weekends. After a few sessions together I started pulling out the camera and then it felt like a race to finish before the season was over. Stoked to finally have it all put together, hope y’all enjoy!!” – Dylan Thayer
