In The Cut – United Tour De France

July 9, 2015

The United Bike Co. team recently loaded up and took a trip on over to France to spend a few days cruising spots and stacking clips! DIG just released this raw cut of footage featuring the crew going to work on spots. As you can imagine, with a crew like the United team, they had no trouble coming up with some amazing riding on the spots they did end up coming across. Hell, they even got Ian Morris to slide a big rail to get his heart racing. Hit that play button and take it all in! This is a BMX video that’s well worth watching from start to finish.

“Loading up a van with bikes and hitting the road with a (very) loose plan has been a staple in BMX since the beginning. For the latest United filming trip we did exactly that, driving from the South of England to the South of France with bossman Ian Morris, young guns Harry Mills-Wakley and Fernando Laczko… and picking up ‘The French Connexion’ of Alex Valentino, Tom Deville and Nico Terrez on the way and temporary Frenchman Corey Martinez. With kilometres covered, injuries sustained, new friends made, fields slept in and footage collected for their ongoing ‘Still United’ project, it had all the ups and downs of a classic BMX road trip. Le Bangers are being held back for the DVD, until then enjoy the rest of the footage collected over our week through France via our latest DIG ‘In The Cut’ video.

Hit play on this BMX video right now! It’s a MUST SEE for sure.

“Two down, two more to go! Our third 4Down1Up video comes from Team Smillie, consisting of the man himself, Devon Smillie, style cat Matt Roe and probably the smiliest man on the planet, filmer Peter Adam.

Look out for the final 4Down1Up video dropping tomorrow right here on DIGBMX.com – you’ll have your chance to vote for your favourite video along with being entered into our Dans Comp giveaway!” – DIG

Verde – “London Calling”

January 16, 2014

The Verde crew crushed spots and brought plenty of style for their section in the “London Calling” video! Peter Adam also did an amazing job with the filming and editing for it! Hit play NOW!

“Verde pulled out every stop for this, no expense spared on the line up as they called upon this motley crew, Panvos Manaras, Brian Yeagle, Biz, Matt Priest, Jonny Devine, Pierre Hinze, Lima, and Martyn Tambling. Dunk took care of the article in the mag with another awesome write up and sick photography, while Peter Adam nailed the edit in his usual style. Pretty much every rider here is a solid all rounder, and they hammered it at every spot.” – Ride UK

Red Bull Flow Summer Holiday Challenge

August 6, 2013

Red Bull Flow have a new video contest for you guys to get in on with Rich Forne, Peter Adam, Juliet Elliot, Ryan Hallett, Will Evans and Kriss Kyle as the judges. Above is an example from Peter Adam of what they’re looking for and a full details on the contest below! Get in on this.

“Red Bull Flow is an iPhone and Android app built for the BMX and skateboarding community to film and share their tricks. With Instagram Video and Vine already catering for moving images in the social media world, what’s Flow’s USP? That it can stitch together complete films from user-uploaded tricks, without the need for any video editing software or any prior editing knowledge. Red Bull Flow also ensures that the millions of clips filmed every day help BMXers and skaters get better at their sport as well as helping to share clips with friends.

“We were tasked to build Red Bull Flow to be the best way for BMXers and Skateboarders to share their tricks,” says Jonathan Attenborough of Sidekick Studios, who designed the app. “Individual clips are filmed and uploaded with the app. Clips are tagged with the rider, trick and spot. The app then creates edits by stitching the clips together around a tag – which we call Flows. It’s pretty exciting because the app can make lots of different films depending on the tags.”

Throughout August, some of the UK’s best BMX filmers – Rich Forne, Peter Adam, Juliet Elliot, Ryan Hallett and Will Evans – have been challenged to make a creative film of between 15-to-20 clips. How they use the edit-free platform, and what their films end up being about, is up to them.

And from Saturday 3rd August Red Bull is inviting the public to use the Flow app to create innovative bmx and skate riding films without any editing experience required. Users are asked to upload films of between 15-to-20 clips using the tag “Your name + PhoneEdit” (eg: if your name is Joe Bloggs, the tag would be JoeBloggsPhoneEdit). Three of the best filmers – as decided by pro BMXer Kriss Kyle – will then earn a unique, Red Bull-inspired day-out at one of the UK’s biggest BMX events at Birmingham’s NEC on 29th September.

“Making a bmx or skate edit on a phone couldn’t be easier,” says Peter Adam, one of the UK’s most respected BMX film-makers. “There’s no need to carry around a heavy bag of the latest expensive camera equipment, just take your phone out of your pocket and start shooting. You can upload directly from your phone too, and the only editing you do is to trim the clips – the app edits them together – so you’re only limited by your imagination.” Check out Peter’s own Flow above.
