Empire BMX – “Good Idea” Vol. 1

Leave a Comment

The follow up to “Bad Idea” has arrived. Well, part one at least! Empire BMX have released the first video from the “Good Idea” series! This first video features a TON of riders, but primarily focuses on Chase Hawk. The video is packed with park, street, trails, pools, DIY spots and more, with no shortage of dialed riding to see from Chase and plenty more familiar faces from Empire team dudes to OG’s and locals in the Austin, Texas area. Hopefully Vol. 2 isn’t too far behind because we definitely want more of this! Hit play and enjoy!

After watching this, why not go and watch the full “Bad Idea” video while you’re at it!

“The world is a crazy place right now, but we hope Vol 1 of our new video series clears your head for a little while, and makes you want to get out and pedal. Good Idea Vol 1. features a full Chase Hawk part, and hits from a large crew of players. it’s always a good idea to let Chase and the crew light the way!

Filmed and edited by Bob Scerbo” – Empire BMX

Fit Bike Co. – 12 Days of Aitken: Day 9 – 50/50 “That’s It”

Leave a Comment

Fit Bike Co.’s 9th day of the 12 days of Aitken takes a look back at Mike’s 50/50 BMX’s “That’s It” video!

It’s crazy how many amazing video parts Mike Aitken has had over the years. Today Fit Bike Co. had Matt Beringer and Shawn “Elf” Walters sit down and watch Mike’s section from the 50/50 BMX “That’s It” DVD. This was another step in the progression of Mike where he went to work on everything brakeless. This one has so many gnarly clips that he makes looks so effortless. Hit play!

“We’re 3/4 of the way through our ‘Twelve days of Aitken,’ which is a retrospective look at Mike Aitken’s BMX career as seen through the eyes of some of those who know him best via a selection of his hugely influential video parts, and what better part to kick off Day 9 than with Mikey’s epic “That’s It!” section.

2007’s Salt Lake City, Utah-based full-length video “That’s It!” was arguably one of the most progressive independent videos to date. And Mike’s section deservingly took the closing honors. The riding in this section is the epitome of his matured style and progression. Newly brakeless in many clips, he utterly lays waste of the SLC area streets, Beringer’s ramp, and Tanner trails. So many classic clips documented on his home turf; and as Shawn “Elf” Walters says, this is easily one of, if not the, best part Mike has made. -RD

Fit Bike Co. – 12 Days of AItken – Day 5: The Beginning 2

Leave a Comment

On the 5th day of the 12 Days of Aitken, we get a look at Mike’s “The Beginning 2” Part!

Matt Beringer and Shawn “Elf” Walters sit down to talk about Mike Aitken’s part for “The Beginning 2” that never was actually released as a full video, but Mike’s part did make it into the “Fit Life” bonus section. As we’ve seen the past 5 days, Mike’s level of progression just keeps going and this is a clear indicator of that. Amazing riding in this one.

“Day 5 in our ‘Twelve days of Aitken’, which is a retrospective look at Mike Aitken’s BMX career as seen through the eyes of some of those who know him best via a selection of his hugely influential video parts, continues with Matt Beringer’s “The Beginning 2”, filmed in 2002.

Matt never released the video, and since Mike had a completed section ready to go to VHS duplication (VHS tapes still existed at this point, but were quickly going the way of the Sabre-toothed Tiger, thanks to the influx of DVDs), it ended up being included in the bonus section of “Fit Life.” Like the first “The Beginning”, this was also filmed primarily by longtime friends Matt and Shawn “Elf” Walters (who provide the commentary). Filmed less a year after “Up In Arms”, Aitken just kept going bigger and bigger, with a more refined signature style. Mike was a regular at many of the bigger contests during this time, and there are a few clips sprinkled throughout of him killing it at them. Some of the transfers and lines documented in his section at parks around Salt Lake area are insane, and haven’t been replicated fifteen years later. -RD

Fit Bike Co. – 12 Days of Aitken: Day 2 – The Beginning

Leave a Comment

Fit Bike Co. had Shawn “Elf” Walters and Matt Beringer sit down and talk about Mike Aitken’s first video part in “The Beginning”…

The 12 days of Mike Aitken continues! This time around Fit Bike Co. had Shawn “Elf” Walters and Matt Beringer to talk a little bit about Mike Aitken’s first video pat in “The Beginning” video that Matt produced back in 2000. Hit play and take it all in!

“Day 2 of ‘Twelve days of Aitken’, which is a retrospective look at Mike Aitken’s BMX career as seen through the eyes of some of those who know him best via a selection of his hugely influential video parts, is Mikey’s section in Matt Beringer’s video “The Beginning.”

“The Beginning” is Mike’s first video section ever (released in 2000, around the same time as Empire East), spanning from when he was 13 (around the time he had those clips in Road Fools 2 at Fuzzy’s backyard) to about 16. It documents the transition from ripping around on a race bike to his Mosh days, and filmed by Matt and Shawn “Elf” Walters (who provide the commentary). Includes his first rail (which is massive for a first rail!), contest footage, baggy pants, and the classic Mikey style in it’s infancy documented while flowing through some of the old trails and indoor skateparks around Salt Lake City, Utah. This was the beginning, literally and figuratively. -RD
