Calvin Kosovich & Travis Hughes – Skate Spots App Session

July 2, 2020

Sometimes you need a little help finding some fresh spots to ride! Calvin Kosovich and Travis Hughes decided to give the Skate Spots App a try to find a few new ones to stack some clips on! Here’s a raw cut Our BMX uploaded from the day of riding they got in! Hit play to see what they came across and what got thrown down!

“Nothing beats hitting some unfamiliar streets with your homies and seeing what you find. Putting in the work to discover new spots is fun and feels super rewarding when you uncover a gem. Then there are the days where you really want to just ride something and may not feel like rolling the dice and potentially come up empty handed exploring—which is where the Skate Spots App comes in. Some people may curse its very existence, while others live by it. We meet up with Calvin Kosovich and Travis Hughes for a day of riding and we decided to try something new and picked spots off the App—and of course we found some off the map spots along the way as well. It was a long day and we had multiple guests meet up throughout, including Dakota Roche, Andrew Castaneda, Tony Neyer, and Aaron Brenner.” – Our BMX

Unclicked Podcast – Gary Young

June 29, 2020

After a bit of a hiatus, the Unclicked Podcast is back! Things have changed up and Dennis Enarson has taken a bit of a back seat on it and the Our BMX crew are going to keep it going. Here’s the first episode back with the one and only Gary Young! This one covers a ton of ground with a ton of great stories, so hit play and check out what was talked about!

“Unclicked is available on itunes, spotify, or wherever else you listen to podcasts.

Season 2, Episode 1. Things have changed a little bit with the Unclicked Podcast. Dennis got a bit burned out, so we struck a deal where I’d (Ryan Fudger) would take over the podcast and he’d still be involved as much or as little as he’d like. Fortunately, we have several podcasts in the bag already and Dennis has been part of every single one. New logo, new co-host, new location, and a new dog that interrupts the podcast, but it’s still the same Unclicked. The first episode back is with the one and only Gary Young, who happens to be my best friend and have one of the best table tops in BMX. Check the timecodes below if you want to jump around:

Infamixtape

May 3, 2020

The InfamousLDN squad coming through with a rad video giving us a look at what they got into during multiple trips to Asia between 2018 and 2020 stacking clips on spots all over the place. This is a mix featuring the crew, along with some of the locals they hit spots up with along the way. Check out the story below to get the full scoop. It’s pretty wild how much plans can change as soon as things started getting weird over there. Safe to say they were still able to get a ton of great footage during the times they were there. This is a great watch from start to finish, so get on that play button!

“We started filming this video on our first trip to Asia at the end of 2018. Beginning in Japan, we went on to Taiwan and Vietnam, then somehow ended up in New Zealand (another story) for a couple months, with just over a week in Melbourne on the way home. Good friends were made on this trip, and plans to return were made.

9 months later in early 2020 we found ourselves back in Taiwan. After around a week of eating extreme amounts of the local cuisine and indulging in the seemingly endless supply of spots, Corona Virus had made its way onto the world stage. Apart from a cancelled trip to Hong Kong due to the ‘Rona, the trip carried on as planned despite the virus. We moved around Taiwan for just over 3 weeks before flying to Hanoi. Spent 10 days around the north of Vietnam riding dirt bikes and doing stupid shit, and six days of extreme heat and humidity down south in Ho Chi Minh city riding the handful of spots on offer. With the whole corona virus thing starting to take hold and funds dwindling, we decided to make Japan our last destination before heading back home. We stayed near Tokyo for a couple weeks, enjoying our final days of the trip before a hellish 28 hour journey home, and have been in lockdown ever since!

A huge thank you to Allen Liu, Daichi Kawamoto, Robin Sloot, Hikaru Funyu and everybody else we met along the way. Can’t wait to come again!” – InfamousLDN
