Pro Part – Ryan “Biz” Jordan

October 28, 2015

It’s not every day that we get a fresh BMX video from Ryan “Biz” Jordan, but when we do… It’s always filled with fire! Ryan has been busy stacking clips with Calvin Kosovich for something special for quite a while and this is the final result. If you aren’t hitting play on this by now… You need to be slapped.

“The idea of the full section, or the “Pro Part”, is something we’ve seen shift with time. As physical DVDs dwindle, more and more professional riders are taking to the web as the next best means to showcase the fruits of their labor. As much as the day to day IG video, or quick street/plaza session-edit has to offer, there’s still something unmatched by the full section formula, consisting of months of blood, sweat, and pain… Ryan “Biz” Jordan has been around for over a decade, he’s invented tricks, placed at major contests, and most importantly he’s filmed countless epic video parts over the span of his lengthy professional career… So who better to kick of this onslaught of “Pro Part’ sections? Sit back, relax, and enjoy these 3 minutes of destruction that Biz cooked up with nomadic Australian lensman Calvin Kosovich.” – Ride BMX

“Filming with Biz for this project was pretty relaxed I’m basically living on his couch so we could get up and ride any day of the week as long as the spot was weekday friendly. No injuries just good old fashioned clips for this part which was a nice change for what we do on a daily basis. I guess we filmed for like 6 months, I was in Australia for a month in between the filming process so there was a little break as for that it was pretty consistent film days. For those who don’t know, Biz is older than most Pro’s still riding at this high level so it was impressive to see and film these clips with him. It is with much honor to put this together for the world to see, many years ahead with Biz in our industry I’m sure of it. This is what a Pro Bmx rider looks like, don’t forget it.” – Calvin Kosovich

FISE Chengdu – Best Trick Highlights

October 22, 2015

When you put a bunch of the worlds finest BMX riders together on a course like FISE Chengdu, crazy things are bound to happen. When you wave some money and start up a best trick contest, things are bound to get insane. Check out some highlights from the best trick contest that went down at FISE Chengdu the other weekend in China. Might as well rename the place to banger city!

“FISE is really doing the whole “Action Sports World Tour” thing right, and one great part of that is the Best Trick comp. Although it didn’t count towards their run, each rider was given the chance to give two attempts at a best trick. Logan Martin came out on top with a flip bar-to-whip, followed by Mike Varga who did his second ever cashroll… First try.” – Ride BMX

FISE Chengdu – 2015 Pro Park Qualifying

October 19, 2015

Last weekend things got wild in Chengdu, China as the FISE World Tour rolled through and brought a bunch of BMX’s best park riders out to go head to head. Check out this highlight reel from qualifying that shows just a taste of what went down. Expect more from the contest soon.

“FISE World Chengdu has officially come to end, but our feature coverage is just getting started. Here’s a taste of what to expect.. the pro park qualifying event. Qualifying was wild, and things really got out of hand during Sundays Finals. Some of the top podium riders from FISE Montpellier got the pre-qualification wave, so although this is a group of heavy-hitters competing to qualify, it’s not the complete group of savages who rode semi-finals and finals.

Finals also held a Best Trick competition (that didn’t count for their run), and shit got BUCK!!!! Expect that to be up on the site soon, as well as an over-all recap from semi-finals and finals, featuring all of the dudes.

In case you missed the live feed of finals, check out the podium replays, full results, & FISE’s official description of finals below.

XSA Invitational 2015 – BMX Park Highlights

October 18, 2015

The other day we got a look at the XSA Invitational Street Highlights, now we get a look at the Park highlights! Check out some seriously insane riding that went down from some of Russia’s finest and a few of the U.S’ like Larry Edgar, who took the win. There’s definitely a few NBD’s in this.

“Don’t let the media fool you, Russia is one of my personal favorite travel destinations in the world. So different, so passionate, and so, so wild. When myself, Pat Casey, Kevin Peraza, Larry Edgar, and Catfish were invited to Sochi, Russia, to be a part of the XSA Invitational this year, we jumped at the chance.

A dope event held during the Formula One race in “Sochifornia” along the black sea. With roller coasters and 1000hp race cars flying near by, the best park riders in Russia laid down hammers until the sun went down. If you’re reading this description before you’ve watched the video, then you’ll see these dudes are machines. Whip game on point. Quadruple barspins. 540 double whips. Seriously progressive riding that rivals anywhere else in the world. But, what separates these dudes from other countries is the passion and love. It’s hard to describe, but trust me, it’s something you should experience one day. Fuck the politics, go to Russia!

Thank you to XSA Store and especially Alex Bivol for taking care of us and going out of their way to make sure we had a great time. Sincerely!

Results:
1. Larry Edgar
2. Kevin Peraza
3. Irek Rizaev

XSA Invitational 2015 – Street Highlights

October 16, 2015

To say things got nuts over in Russia for the XSA Invitational contest the other weekend would be an understatement. Things got nuttier than squirrel turds. Check out this highlight reel of banger after banger that went down during the street contest!

A dope event held during the Formula One race in “Sochifornia” along the black sea. With rollercoasters and 1000hp race cars flying near by, the best street riders in Russia went at it in a jam format, putting together some progressive riding that rivals anywhere else in the world. What separates these dudes from other countries is the passion and love. It’s hard to describe, but if you look closely at the end, you can see tears in the eyes of Artem and Alex…that’s what’s up.

Thank you to XSA Store and especially Alex Bivol (AKA, “when you die, you die”) for taking care of us and going out of their way to make sure we had a great time. Sincerely!
