Chasing the View off the Cliff – The Lost VHS Tape

March 6, 2017

In a day and age where you probably can’t even count the number of BMX related videos you have watched in a day due to the constant stream of social media, videos being shared on Youtube and Viemo, etc. It’s always pretty crazy how something you watched a really long time ago stands out to you. Paul Covey recently went on a little mission to find out more about an old, old VHS video that was called “Chasing The View Off The Cliff that came out of the Pennsylvania area back in early 90’s. It’s an interesting read and it’s safe to say Paul had a lot of fun digging into this one. Check it all out over on the Snakebite website.

“Blueprint” – Seth Kimbrough Section

March 4, 2017

Here’s a little blast from the past for your viewing pleasure! Snakebite have just uploaded Seth Kimbrough‘s section from the “Blueprint” video that came out way back in 2001! This is a very short, but sweet section filled with street and skatepark gold. Hit play and soak up this goodness.

“Seth’s part was a happy accident in the video. He had been hanging out with Bruce Crisman a lot and between him visiting Portland once, Bruce visiting Seth in Alabama for a few days and us being at Woodward for a contest we came up with this sick little part from Seth that i think gave the video a fun little twist.”

“Blueprint” Crash Section

Here’s the crash section from the video that’s bound to make you squirm at least a little bit! Hit play and take these BMX crashes in! It’s safe to say by now these scars have healed up.

“This is one of the most brutal wreck sections in a bmx video. Infact i would think in any video. Serious carnage in here!” – Snakebite

This is a great listen, so grab yourself a cup of coffee, kick back and enjoy!

“Shad Johnson and Rob Dolecki sat down with style G-O-D Chase Hawk on a rainy day last Spring (2016) at his townhouse in Austin for Chase’s first podcast. He covers a lot of ground, including his first exposure to BMX at 9th Street, his racing days, witnessing the explosion of the Austin population and riding scene, stealing sandwiches from Wawa during summers staying in Bethlehem, taking everyone’s money via Cee-lo on Road Fools, his Born and Raised comps, how Cult grew so fast, the Joe Rich influence, wrapping up the soon-to-be-released etnies video ‘Chapters’ (Chase’s part is going be an epic one), witnessing an intense beat-down in South Africa, and just a ton of good stories!” – DIG

“Decent” Wreck Section

February 13, 2017

Crashing sucks, but it’s hard not to watch somebody else do it…

Snakebite coming through with another section from the “Decent” video for your viewing pleasure. This time around, we get one of the ever popular crash sections that are always hard to look away from and even harder to stop yourself from laughing, swearing, making a weird “OOOOOOH” sound or a combination of all three. The wreck section from “Decent” has BMX crashes from street missions and skatepark sessions. This one isn’t too gorey, it looks like maybe one or two T.K.O’s, but overall pretty tame for a crash section… Which is a good thing if you are one of the guys filming for the video, right? Hit play and check it out!

Adam Perez “Decent” Section

February 8, 2017

Snaktebite are always uploading some serious goodies from the past. Here’s another example for your viewing pleasure! This time around we get a look at Adam Perez‘s section from the “Decent” video that is a mix of park and street action, with a good mix of tricks and style. Anyone else notice that massive sprocket and what appears to be a chrome Alex Triple Wall in the back? Classics.

“Adam holds it down on some NW concrete and streets in his part from the Eugene area midschool classic ‘Decent’.”
