“New York, NY – October 26, 2011 – Prepare to be spooked as Red Bull Trick or Treat haunts Brooklyn this weekend. On Saturday, October 29th, 34 of the most core and respected BMX riders in the country will descend on Newtown Barge Park for a street contest, complete with grindable coffin boxes, a tombstone vert wall, a curved grim reaper rail box, and a 32 foot long cross box, all custom painted by Ryan Humphrey. The rider that can cast their spell on this course and bury their opponents will go home with cash instead of candy this Halloween.
Local BMX Pro rider Edwin De La Rosa helped to put together a list of the 34 most bad to the bone riders in street including Scotty Cranmer, Brad Simms, Bruno Hoffmann, Dakota Roche, Jared Washington, Mike Brennan, Dave Belcher, Augie Simoncini, Tony Hamlin, Garret Hoogerhyde, and Dan Lacey. Full rider list is attached.
There will be treats better than candy for some lucky fans. During the contest there will be a raffle for a new Kink bike, DC gift certificates and Edwin will personally donate his bike at the end of the event to the raffle. Venture onto the OSA raffle page, if you dare. http://osanb.org/events/calendar_of_events/Trick_of_Treat/10/29/11
The event is free for all ages, and will feature beats by DJ Yamez, in partnership with The Open Space Alliance for North Brooklyn and DC Shoes, Kink, Skavenger, Animal, and Post Bikes. Costumes are encouraged for both riders and onlookers.

Here’s a behind the scenes look at the shoot for Bruno Hoffmann’s limited edition Red Bull packaging. Pretty crazy how simple this all looks, but how awesome it turned out.
“New York, NY – October 5, 2011 – Sure to be the highlight of Halloween weekend, Red Bull Trick or Treat will give Brooklynites a front row seat to watch BMX street riders take on the night. On Saturday, October 29th, 32 of the most core and respected BMX riders in the country will gather at Newtown Barge Park for a contest that will be full of tricks, and for the rider that survives til the end, some much deserved treats.
Local BMX Pro rider Edwin De La Rosa helped to put together a list of the 32 most bad to the bone riders in street. The new contest format is “Live or Die” where heats of 6 riders will compete, with only the top 2 living to the next round, followed by a two heat semifinal and an all-out 6 rider final.

There will be treats better than candy for some lucky fans. During the contest there will be a raffle for a new Kink bike, DC gift certificates and Edwin will personally donate his bike at the end of the event to the raffle.
The event is free for all ages, and will feature beats by DJ Yamez, in partnership with The Open Space Alliance for North Brooklyn and DC Shoes, Kink, Skavenger, Animal, and Post Bikes. Costumes are encouraged for both riders and onlookers.

Anthony Napolitan has an interview over on the Red Bull site where he discusses Dream Line and more.
Red Bull dropped the second video from Dreamline this past weekend. The finals were definitely on a whole different level. After you check out the video, hit the Photogallery from the finals.
“The Red Bull Dream Line Finals in Wabasha, Minnesota featured eight top BMX dirt riders on a one-of-a-kind course with a laid-back, good-time vibe. See what happened during the session, after which Luke Parslow was picked by the other riders as the day’s champ.”
Were my photos not good enough for you? Well, I hope not since this video from the qualifiers Red Bull Dreamline that went down on Friday is so damn good. Check it out already! Expect the finals video to be dropping soon enough!
