Shadow X Subrosa – Miami Twice

September 25, 2024

The Shadow Conspiracy and Subrosa big dogs in Miami!

Here’s one we’ve been excited to check out! The Shadow Conspiracy and Subrosa Brand dropped Simone Barraco, Matt Ray, and Joris Coulomb in Miami to cruise the endless spots all around the city. When you get these three going to work on spots, you already know plenty of bangers are going down. Here’s a look at what went down!

“It’s been a minute since the guys were together on a trip so when we decided on Miami we knew we needed a heavy crew to go.

We joined Shadow Conspiracy and Subrosa pro riders Simone Barraco, Matt Ray, and Joris Coulomb together for a 10 day trip in the sun for a whole bunch of fun.

The vibes and production were over the top on the first trip, that as soon as it finished the guys wanted to go back for round two in the same city so “Miami Twice” was the plan.

Ryan Chadwick tagged along and documented the whole thing and chopped it together.

“Miami Twice” is the first video in a little bit from us, but it kicked off the feelings we all love of BMX and riding with homies and they guys felt right at home while being on the road together. More to come! 👀

Shadow X Subrosa – Simone Barraco “Kisses”

September 2, 2023

Simone Barraco giving you a smooch!

It’s always a good day when Simone Barraco has a new video to check out! Here’s his latest for The Shadow Conspiracy and Subrosa Brand with 4 minutes of Simone bringing his signature style to spots galore. As expected, Simone delivered with the bangers making for a Must See from the streets of Barcelona that you won’t want to miss!

“Filming for kisses was a lot of fun… planned few last minutes low budget trips to get me out of Barcelona with some homies, bikes and a camera and just either met with locals or just went on our own exploring the city and have a good time… no pressure or rush about anything just riding and filming what we felt good about… I mostly enjoy kissing spots nowadays so here it is a little collection of KISSES combos from this first part of my year! biggest thanks to all my homies involved and all the locals we met for helping me make it happen and for making it such a fun easy process! LOVE U” – Simone Barraco

“From the idea to the details Simone Barraco created this project around Kisses himself. He had a vision from the start and pulled it off. He came to us with a concept and the art and we worked together to get it done. When you combine his creativity on and off his bike with his passion for BMX you get Kisses.

We are stoked to present this project and appreciate Simone for the hard work on Kisses.”

The Shadow Conspiracy – Trey Jones In Barcelona

November 23, 2022

You already know this Trey Jones video is a MUST SEE!

Daaaaaaaaang. The Shadow Conspiracy dropped a fresh video from some time Trey Jones spent over in Barcelona this past summer. Apparently this was a “quick” trip, but Trey filmed an absolute BANGER of a video on some lesser known spots around the massive city. There’s even a few Simone Barraco clips in there for good measure. This is an absolute MUST SEE, so get on that play button now!

“Trey Jones heads out on a quick summer vacation to the streets of Barcelona. Trey didn’t want to ride the staple spots of BCN so with Simone Barraco as a tour guide, the crew went out to find more obscure and un-ridden areas.

Trey does not disappoint and gets clips that only he could come up with. Make sure to keep your eyes peeled for a few guest clips from Simo himself!

Vans “Unfiltered” – Simone Barraco and Anthony Perrin In Paris

May 19, 2022

It has been a while since Vans have released one of their Unfiltered videos (about 4 years if we remember right), but they’re back with a fresh one from the lens of Rich Forne for your viewing pleasure! This time around Simone Barraco and Anthony Perrin explore the massive city of Paris, France to find spots to go to work on. You already know when you put these two riders together in a city like Paris with a filmer like Rich, you’re going to have a MUST SEE. Get on that play button and take it all in!

“The Vans Unfiltered series continues! This time around Simone Barraco and Anthony Perrin visited the city of love – Paris. Unfiltered dives deep into the heart of the city via the lens of Rich Forne. So deep you can almost smell the fresh croissants and feel the vibrations of the subway system below. It’s a feast for the senses.Combining Simone and Anthony is a match made in heaven and the clips they managed to film are of the grade-A street riding masterclass variety.” – DIG

“An ecologically minded experiment to make Paris a cycling capital of Europe has led to 1.5 million cyclists chaotically speeding through the streets with no regard for human life. Blowing through red lights in both directions, deliveroo riders fixating to their cell phone navigation and tinder breaks, Electric scooters careening across lanes and countless pedestrians and dogs jumping the streets in suicidal protest against the cycle mania. We escaped the gold plated boulevards for the moodier less predictable Parisian suburbs.

Our ghetto version of the tour de France. The miles were necessary to find the hidden gems.” – Rich Forne
