“Vans, the original action sports footwear and apparel brand, and the first name in BMX, announces the industry’s most anticipated video of 2016, ILLUSTRATED. ILLUSTRATED marks another astounding milestone for Vans, marking the brand’s first-ever, feature length global BMX video since the company’s inception in 1966.

ILLUSTRATED is about paving your own path; a unique ride through life, both on and off the bike. With style, precision and drama at every turn, each rider demonstrates their own chosen direction as they journey across the globe establishing their craft as creators of one truly original art form. In the end, we are graced with a showcase of cinematic adventures, written in scratches and skid marks on walls and rails around the world. This is their piece, their extension and their illustrated reality – this is ILLUSTRATED.

On June 2, Vans will present the world premiere of ILLUSTRATED at the iconic Austin venue, The Mohawk, during the 2016 X-Games. Chronicling another first in Vans’ history, the Austin red carpet premiere will be webcast live on RideBMX.com.

BMX riders adopted Vans in the late ‘60s because of their reliable construction and rugged waffle outsole. The “Off The Wall” philosophy of BMX led to Vans signing on the first officially sponsored BMX athletes in history, Bob Haro and Greg Hill. Decades later, Vans’ checkerboard flag continues to be a global mainstay in BMX and the first in the sport and as the leader in BMX footwear and apparel.”

The Kink crew are always on the ball and it seems like always first to release their next years models of complete bikes. Today, they released their new catalog giving you a full look at their entire range of 2017 complete bikes from their 12″ Coast on up through to their Tony Hamlin, Sean Sexton and Connor Lodes signature complete bikes. You can take a look at the full range by hitting the catalog above. It looks like Kink have once again stepped things up with their full range of bikes and they look damn good.

“Each year we go into designing our bikes with one objective in mind, and that is simply to build the best BMX bikes possible. All the aspects that go into that one objective on the other hand, are not quite so simple. Designing new components, refining product features, updating geometry, gathering dealer and rider input, doing color trend research and improving manufacturing techniques, are just some of those aspects. Our 2017 line up is of course no exception, and we’ve reviewed, revised, and improved on each model to ensure it’s the best bike in its class.

Keep your eyes peeled for these wild stallions rolling into shops and mailorders this May.”

Sean Sexton Off Odyssey

December 19, 2015

Man, what is going on over at Odyssey? It was announced that they let Chase Hawk go the other day, now Sean Sexton has announced that Odyssey have also let him go for 2016. This is two very big moves on Odyssey’s part, so we’re pretty surprised by the news. Based off Sean’s announcement on Instagram, it sounds like he was pretty caught off guard by the news, but is pretty optimistic about the news. We can only imagine it won’t take long for Sean to pick up a new parts sponsor, if not he still has Kink, which also offer a full range of parts.

Here’s Odyssey’s announcement…

“Every single one of us at Odyssey couldn’t be more bummed that Chase Hawk and Sean Sexton are no longer part of the Odyssey team. Nobody wanted this, and it’s one of the hardest things we’ve ever had to do as a company or as individuals. But what it came down to is Odyssey was more down for Chase and Sean than they were for Odyssey. They wouldn’t come on our trips, they wouldn’t come out riding with us at home, and when we could get them to hang out with us, it wasn’t hard to tell they’d rather be somewhere else. That kind of attitude can bring down a session or a trip worse than anything. Supporting guys who don’t support us has been really tough.

Every single other rider on our team is 100% down for Odyssey and down for their friends on the team, and it only makes sense to put everything we’ve got behind the guys who truly love Odyssey and are stoked on what we’re doing. We wish more than anything that Chase and Sean were down, but sadly they’ve shown us for a long time now that they’re not, and something had to give. It’s tragic things have unfolded this way, I hope once the smoke clears we can all be friends again.”
