Scotty Cranmer – Game of Add On: Flat Ground

June 9, 2016

What happens when you put a bunch of ramp riders into a Game of Add On, but make them do everything on flat ground? You better believe things get pretty hilarious. Check out what they guys were able to come up with and how far they were able to go before everyone was eliminated except for the champion!

“For game of add on # 6 the whole crew met at the skatepark to play a flat ground game of add on where if you touch a ramp you are automatically disqualified! The boys brought some crazy and creative tricks to the game and after some ups and downs and some awesome tricks and some even more awesome fails only one person gets the title of the Add on Champion! We love playing add on because it is so much fun playing with your friends and having a few laughs!” – Scotty Cranmer

Scotty Cranmer – 3 Dudes, 1 Game of B-I-K-E

June 8, 2016

Here’s a fresh game of B-I-K-E for your viewing pleasure! Hit play to watch Matty Cranmer, Cory Berglar and Big Boy go to work to see who can take the win. You already know this is going to get interesting!

“We all met up at Jackson skatepark to play a Game Of Bike! Matty Cranmer vs BIG BOY vs Cory “puppy arms” Berglar! The game started off with us checking out Big Boy’s new haircut which gives him a striking resemblance to Simple Jack from Tropic Thunder! So we quoted the movie as often as we could! Then Cory forgot his helmet so Matty shared his helmet with him in between turns! Then Cory’s bad luck continued when he got a flat tire on a half cab so instead of forfeiting he decided to borrow Matty’s bike as well! So the game came down to the wire and all the dudes were absolutely killing it! But my favorite part was when Dylan hopped on Big Boy’s shoulders and they decided to ride around the skatepark until Dylan fell off and nearly ripped Big Boy’s nose off! It was an awesome day!” – Scotty Cranmer

Scotty Cranmer – X Games 2016: Day 6

June 5, 2016

Scotty Cranmer wrapping up his X Games series for you guys. Here’s a little look at how his day went down from waking up to a super painful trip to the hospital after a ROUGH slam during his run to lead to a broken back. Luckily he should be okay! Hit play and take it all in!

“Our last day of the 2016 summer X Games was definitely not what I expected. We started the day off with rain once again. So we drove from the hotel to the Circuit Of Americas with hopes of a break in weather and to our surprise the course was dry! We started a hectic full practice where I saw 3 near collisions on course and before i even got a chance to drop in the rain began again! The course was soaked and I helped clear off the puddles to get the contest started before the rain started again. As the contest began all the riders started sending some insane tricks so i knew i had to bring my A game! I dropped in and had an amazing start to my run and I did a backflip double tail whip over the box and as i landed on my backwheel and braced myself to rely on the brake to correct my position my brakes snapped and i looped out insanely hard on my butt. It hurt so bad and i couldn’t breathe no matter how hard i tried.. Finally after 2 minutes i got my wind back and I made my way back to the medical tent where i realized just how hurt i really was.. I jumped in the EMS vehicle and they took me to the hospital for evaluation. I was in a lot of pain so they did a CT scan and that showed a grade 1 compression fracture in my T8 vertebrae so yes I broke my back riding Xgames.. I never thought that I would ever be able to say that and it’s crazy to think just how lucky I actually am to be able to walk away from this scary crash. I am so bummed and frustrated about the crash because I wasn’t at fault because of my riding I crashed because my bike broke on me.. Such a crumby X games for me but still i had such an amazing time and I am already excited for next year!”

This starts off with Scotty building up both of the bikes for the contest, a quick session outside of the hotel on a few spots before the rain hit, a little more time touring the park course, along with plenty of antics from Big Boy along the way.

“Day 2 of the summer X games in Austin Texas wen down and today we started out by building up both of my bikes. My Jet fuel Hyper Wizard and my black spare bike! Then we took the bikes out for a little cruise around the aerate get warmed up and we ended up riding and filming some awesome stuff! Then we got kicked out of a spot by a sweaty angry condominium owner! After that we drove over to the X Games venue and I walked the Park course for a little while and planned my runs until it started thunder storming and we had to go indoors until the storm passed because of lightning strikes! After it cleared up, we went for a walk on the biggest and baddest ramp on the planet! The Big Air Ramp! That ramp is terrifying and I get anxiety just standing at the bottom of it! I can’t wait to see the competition go down on Saturday!”
