How To: Grind Rails with Calvin Kosovich

July 21, 2015

Want to learn how to send some grinds down a handrail on a BMX bike? Well, it’s not as complicated as it might seem! Let Calvin Kosovich give you a little insight into just how to get it done with plenty of examples! This trick is almost more of a mental game than it is physical, that’s for sure.

“The BMX street staple of grinding a rail down stairs is explained by none-other than handrail slayer, Kink pro Calvin Kosovich. Learning to grind a rail down stairs will open up your riding to a whole new world of opportunity. From bombing big steep rails to doing combos on little mellow rails… You can gap into them past the kink, you can grind them and gap into the street, you can grind up them.. The possibilities are virtually endless. Shout out to Calvin for manning the filming, editing, and riding for us this week! Cameo from Andrew Castaneda.” – Ride BMX

“Lacey is one straight-forward, funny mother fucker. So, when I strapped to a mic to him at the beginning of the Chicago stop of The Street Series, I knew this would end up being a long edit. From dealing with security, whispering sweet nothings in my ear, and talking a bit of shit, Lacey pretty much had commentary for everything. Besides a couple of missed clips at the last spot (I had to go get something to drink), I think this video does a pretty proper job of showing all the good times that were had in Chicago. Thanks to Monster for organizing this, Kachinsky for doing the ground work, Lacey for being a part of this, and all the locals for coming out and making #bmxday a huge success.

Rest in peace, Glenn Salyers…

Local dudes Anthony Napolitan and Mike “Hucker” Clark are joined by Dylan Stark, Cory Nastazio, Larry Edgar, Matt Cordova, and many more during the first big session since some remodeling went down earlier this year.

Out of the Box – Wethepeople Reason with Dillon Lloyd

July 6, 2015

It’s pretty amazing how good complete BMX bikes are these days. You literally can pull these things out of the box and throw down some heavy riding on them and they will hold up like a custom build. Dillon Lloyd recently pulled a 2015 Wethepeople Reason complete out of the box and went to work on it like it was his own bike. So good!

“The WeThePeople Reason is good to go straight outta the box… Dillon Lloyd did his best to thrash this thing and it held up 100%. At 499.99 this thing is dialed.
