Sebastian Keep – Jumping Off Bridges On A BMX: The Story Behind “Walls”
Sebastian Keep found some very crazy walls to ride for this project…
Here’s what we have been waiting for, for a LOOOOONG time now! The footage of Sebastian Keep doing that insane Gap to Wallride off a bridge for Red Bull has finally made its way online! The Behind the Scenes video just dropped on Tall Order‘s Youtube channel giving you a look at everything that went into making this very, very, very insane idea happen from the gap off the bridge to a bunch of other crazy setups he cooked up! Then Red Bull dropped their “Walls” video that is a short but sweet video packed with banger after banger from all the insane wallrides Bas did. This is absolute MADNESS and a must see!
“ The idea started with lets take 2 small ramps to the city centres to jump off multi storey car parks and bridges land on buildings and wall ride down them. We knew that what we were doing wasn’t exactly legal so we decided to wear high vis jackets and hard hats and try our best to disguise ourselves as road workers so that people would leave us alone and It worked!
The spots we found on Google earth were bigger than we anticipated
and so we tried to build practice set ups to help get used to the gaps.
At the spot in Croydon nobody knew if it was possible to ride down 20 feet of vertical wall and after speaking to various pro riders who didn’t have an answer for us we decided to try it…
This video tells the story of how we rolled into city centres in the early hours disguised as builders with vans holding huge ramps set them up and filmed our attempts at some of the biggest wall rides we have seen.
Please Subscribe and thanks for watching.” Sebastian Keep
“Redefining the concept of street riding, Sebastian ‘Bas’ Keep’s latest project, Walls, takes BMX into uncharted territories.
It’s almost like a new discipline of riding, no one’s really done it before
Sebastian ‘Bas’ Keep
The British BMX legend uses ramps and his creativity to tackle some of the UK’s most inaccessible wallrides, including the project’s death-defying final Croydon spot – an insane 6.5m (22ft) gap to 9.7m (32ft) wallride that made the final ever cover of RideUK back in 2015.
Nearly two years later and the wait is over. Watch the video above to see Bas push the boundaries of what can be achieved in the street environment.”

Red Bull – Goodnight Paris with Anthony Perrin
You know it’s going to be a good day when you start things off with an email from Hadrien Picard that includes his latest video! This time Hadrien worked with Anthony Perrin and Red Bull to explore the city of Paris, France during some winter evening sessions. The end result? Dialed riding, rad spots and some excellent film work. Check out the video above, then get a look at a few photos that were also snapped while working on this project.
“All those who practice BMX street know how this can be a chore. It is necessary to avoid the pedestrians, to pay attention to the circulation, to escape the vigilance of the guards or the forces of the order. What if the best solution was to ride at night? That’s what were said Anthony Perrin and Hadrien Picard . For their last project, they spent 11 nights filming on some of the most beautiful spots of Paris and its suburbs. The end result is to be found above!”

Red Bull – Vasya Lukyanenko “Discover Ukraine”
Red Bull dropped a new video, along with some photos and words from a trip to Western Ukraine that Vasya Lukyanenko took to explore some untapped spots! Hit play on the video to check out what he got into, then check out a story from the trip below!
“A few words about our trip. The idea come up in the beginning of the year, when I watched the video, which shows attractions of Ukraine, what can be proud of our country. I thought it would be interesting to do a project that combine significant places of Ukraine and riding BMX. I put together a list of 8 places, where no one has ever ridden in Ukraine. In this list were 4 Castle, a monument to the dead loop Nesterov, Radio Locations station Pamir, arch-bridge in the village of Plebanovka. All the spots and the idea of riding on them initially showed the photographer Sergey Ilyin, he enjoyed it, and we started preparation. As partners, we have attracted Winner Automotive company and brand that they represent – Jaguar. We were given a car Jaguar F-Pace, and covered the transportation costs.
For hedging, in case of “not ridebly” spots I decided to build a small kicker, which would allow to ride on the flat, or even wider use different spots. We built it together with Sergei at his home a few days before departure. Departure day long delayed for various reasons and we went on 25 October.
I was the best route, which was the best of all the places to visit. We went to the first location, which was near the quarry Korostyshiv. There are places for skiing, we have not found and decided to move on.
Second dispute became the city Novograd Volyn and local landmark – the remains of the fortress Zvyagel. Spot was there not particularly rich in possibilities. We took a few tricks on the rails and leave this spot. Then rain started and we had to go further.
We moved in the direction of the city of Rivne. After spending the night on the highway in the morning we decided to call on the basalt quarry, which has offered Sergey. The weather was too cloudy and the road was a little rain. We arrived at the place, it struck us of size and beauty. With this quarry would make a great park, not worse than the American Grand Canyon!
We have traveled all career in that area, and stopped at the first, which hit. We only had a few hours before browning and we took a few good shots.
The main problem or difficulty we had is that we did not check locations before filming and we did not know will allow us to spots to ride on them. And so it happened, a lot of time spent on searching for spots and the road to them. But it was also a plus, because we did not know what awaits us at the locations. Radar Pamir we postponed for later, because it was quite far from our target cities. After the quarry, we went in the direction of Lviv, where we spent the night. In the morning we went to the Loop. At this spot we went to work, we tried to dig a huge pit that is not allowed to drive up to it. We spent two hours digging the ditch and left this venture. Spot the one hand a very interesting and unusual, and on the other – are not allowed to get up to speed, that would do tricks on it. We squeeze out of it what we could, got one action and lifestyle shots and drove on.
Next was an abandoned castle Pidhirtsi. There we were shooting in the dark.
Before filming had to run, explore location, entrances to them and what they can do.
After we moved to the next target, which was an arched bridge in the village of Plebanovka. But the villages with the same name in Ukraine as it turned three and we missed our village at 280 km or 4 hours and drive by there the roads. Bridge, we also decided to leave the next project in the spring we will go for it!
Next was Kamenetz-Podolsk and the local fortress. The weather was great and we took further action shots of a beautiful castle.
A lot of time was spent on the placement of the equipment, collecting, moving and shooting itself usually takes up to an hour – two times. The next day we went in the side of Kiev and stopped on the way to another arch bridge in Novograd Volynsk but have not found it possible to ride, as well as in another private castle – Radomysl.
Total we had 5 days, 5 spots, 2,200 km, 3 people, 1 bmx, large amount of equipment. At other locations on our list we could not get any action photos.
Huge thanks to Red Bull for making this happened and all people who was involved and helped us with organization. Full article with more photos and backstage video will run soon! Stay tuned!”
