Alexis Desolneux at the Skatepark of Tampa

March 1, 2018

Alex Desolneux went to work at the Skatepark of Tampa…

It’s always rad seeing the flatland guys riding ramps or street spots because they always come through with something different and uniqe that makes for a video you can’t look away from. This new one Alexis Desolneux uploaded from a session at the Skatepark of Tampa is a perfect example of that. This one might be short and sweet, but there’s some unique lines and a grind I’m sure a bunch of you have never even considered trying in this. Hit play and take a peek! You won’t be disappointed.

“Everything happens for a reason. I met Matt Coplon (who filmed clips and edited this) through writing letters and trading tapes/records of our respective obscure hardcore bands around 1995-96. None of us knew we both loved BMX until 1998 when I mentioned coming over to Florida to enter X-Games qualifications in St-Petersburg. When bridges between the DIY HC/punk and BMX scenes took me on bridges over the Tampa Bay. A place I had only heard of through its death metal history. It’s no coincidence I’m here, I love both. DEATH Leprosy. MORBID ANGEL Gateways to Annihilation. ASSÜCK Misery Index. REVERSAL OF MAN… And now HORSEWHIP. That music scene. These bands and records. These people.
Skatepark Of Tampa. The most iconic skatepark in the world. Supporting BMX since Day 1. UNBROKEN played in 1993. If only I could have been there. Or ASSÜCK. Or any of the many 90’s shows the park welcomed.
2018, I want to see this little edit as a chance to thank SpoT for the great times and all my people in Tampa, from BMX, skateboarding and music, and in more than one case sharing these worlds. Just like flatland can inspire some street/park riding. It’s all connected. This edit wouldn’t be without taking in all of these different sources of energy and inspiration.
Love riding to death. See you next time Tampa.
Peace.

Music:
NO JOY
Slug Night
Wait to Pleasure
Mexican Summer records

December 11, 2017

Scotty Cranmer had the crew play a game of BIKE at the Skatepark of Tampa!

During their trip to Florida, Scotty Cranmer had the crew play a Game of B-I-K-E during a session at the Skatepark of Tampa. They had Trey Jones and Spencer Foresman as team captains and each guy picked their team between Big Boy, Cory Berglar, Mike Shimak, Matty Cranmer, Dom Simoncini and Jabe Jones! Take a look at what went down and which team took the win!

“We took a trip to the legendary skate park of Tampa where we met up with Tampa local Spencer Foresman! We decided to do a team game a bike where the team captains tray Jones and Spencer pick riders to be on their team to compete against each other! This is the best game of bike we have had in a while so much amazing BMX tricks were completed and attempted! Cory did an insane ice pick in big boy tried another fakie front flip! this Skate park is amazing and we had so much fun filming this video!” – Scotty Cranmer

Dude Bird – Spotting 2: Heavy Flow

May 1, 2017

The latest video from the Dude Bird crew has arrived. This time around we get a compilation of just over 2 years worth of footage coming out of Skatepark of Tampa with a soundtrack that’s bound to make some ears bleed. This is a huge mix of riders that bring a mix of styles and tricks, keeping things interesting from start to finish… We just can’t guarantee it’s worth keeping the audio on this one, haha. Take a look!

Dude Bird – Hugh Mungus SPoT Edit

September 15, 2016

It has been a little while since we’ve seen a Dude Bird video pop up, but it looks like things are still getting weird down in Florida. The title made us think we were getting a super long, riding packed video from the Skatepark of Tampa, but in reality it’s just a short video with a weird soundtrack, haha. Take a peek at some solid riding!

“If you aren’t up on the “Hugh Mungus” video that has gone viral and become meme gold, educate yourself here: youtube.com/watch?v=4aVna3HohXI
I think it’s hilarious and when I heard this song made from the audio (youtube.com/watch?v=C2Q9YazF0U0), it was a must that it be used.

Florida BMX Skatepark Series 2016 – Stop 2: Skatepark of Tampa

January 25, 2016

Check out a bunch of highlights from the Florida BMX Skatepark Series 2016 stop at the Skatepark of Tampa that went down the other weekend! Plenty of wild riding from all the classes and the big air contest! Hit play and check it out. Don’t forget to check out our video from the 2016 SPoT Roast Bowl Jam that went down the night before!

“Highlights from the second stop of the FL-BMX series at the Skatepark of Tampa… hosted by Profile Racing.
Saturday, December 16th, 2016 was the second stop of the FL-BMX series at the Skatepark of Tampa hosted by Profile Racing. If you want to get technical, it was actually the 10th anniversary of Tampa’s annual, and much anticipated, SPoT Roast.
To sum it up: perfect weather, a dialed turn out (102 entries), and arguably the most wild moves overall to date for any FLBMX Stop?
To say I love our state is an understatement. We got a good thing going here, and, in all honesty, it only seems to be getting better.
Thanks to The Skatepark of Tampa for being down with bmx since day one. 1993 till infinity as they say…
I’m not sure a lengthy narrative will properly describe the event. So here is a clip selection care of Brett Rolfing.
Thanks for watching and thanks for the support.
–Matt Coplon

Dude Bird – Spotting

May 8, 2015

Whenever a new Dude Bird video pops in the inbox, we try to completely clear our mind of any preconceived idea of what we might just see. Needless to say, once again, they have managed to leave us thinking “What the hell are we watching?… Why can’t we stop watching?”. Check out some great riding from the Skatepark of Tampa along with a lot of “what the hell are we watching” in this new BMX video.

“SPoT is our local park, so sometimes we end up with more footage from there then we really need. So this is how we will expel these spare clips. It’s not a 100% full on Dude Bird edit, just a little extra in between. See? The title actually makes even more sense when you look at it like that…”
