Drinking Black Coffee – The Art of Steve Crandall

July 20, 2018

Steve Crandall gives us some insight into how art keeps him moving…

Here’s a rad video that gives us some insight into how Steve Crandall looks at art and how it keeps him motivated in everything he does from building trails, painting, doing projects for FBM and more. Steve has a great perspective on things and it’s a good reminder that you need to do what makes you happy. Take a look!

“A person’s motivation reveals a lot about them. and I wanted to find out more about what motivates the one and only Steve Crandall beyond what we know of him with FBM.

Always creating and enjoying things with the community that he surrounds himself with, Crandall’s intentions through life are pure, and his actions reflect that. He holds BMX values as a foundation and that spreads into every aspect of his life. Whether he’s coasting a big bike down a hill, digging in the dirt, or painting a coffee cup, it all comes from the same place and for the same reasons.

This short film was shot in early April 2018 and documents Crandall in Richmond VA dealing with his first ever solo art show, and his preparation for the show 6 hours north in his hometown of Ithaca NY. – Kenny Horton

“Steve Crandall, an interview I’ve been looking to do since I started the podcast last October. Drove down to Richmond, VA and was treated to a taste of Steve’s Richmond life. In Part 1 you will hear much about FBM’s history as well as Steve’s history with BMX. Be sure to turn up the volume when walks a bit away from the mic to tend to dinner among other things, those are more moments you will want to hear. FBM is a lifestyle as much as it is a brand. Steve and his FBM crew of riders and employees show that consistently with FBM events and being active with the community. Beyond that Steve talks about his announcing job with Vans and how honored he is to do it. Always bringing the stoke, that is Steve and always will be. you can find Steve at:

The Halahan Brothers “Under Your Influence” – Steve Crandall

March 16, 2018

The Second episode of “Under Your Influence” with the Halahan brothers takes a look at weekend with Steve Crandall…

If you caught the first “Under Your Influence” video with , then you know by now that the Halahan Brothers have some very good influences. This second episode, Lukas, Nathan and Shane spend a weekend out cruising with Steve Crandall who is not only their sponsor with FBM, but a close family friend. It’s easy to tell where these guys have got their positive and rad attitudes. Take a look at what they got into!

“The Halahan Bro’s : Under Your Influence

The Halahan Brothers. Lukas (15), Nathan (13), and Shane (8) got every kid’s dream opportunity – to ride with their favorite pros. Only these pros weren’t the ones you’d expect. When asked who they’d be most stoked to ride with, first up came the name Garrett Byrnes, followed closely by this guy, Mr FBM – Steve Crandall; both of whom are older than the age of the three boys combined.

Episode Two: Steve Crandall.

High fives and good times in Richmond, VA. Squeezing as much fun in to twenty-four hours was the mission. Two DIY concrete spots and Steve’s own trail’s made it easy. Spray painting t-shirts, BBQ, and fire at the FBM bus properly brought the day to a close.

The Halahan Bro’s are proudly supported by DIG partners Profile Racing and Vans.

In The Cut – 2017 Uncovered BMX Series: Stop 1

January 23, 2018

Check out this raw cut from the first Uncovered BMX Series stop…

When Van Homan and Brian Kachinsky throw an event, you know it’s going to be a good time. Here’s a look at what went down during the first stop of the Uncovered BMX Series at the Mason Dixon Skatepark. This contest is for the AM’s and it’s safe to say most of these guys you might not have ever seen footage of, but they all threw down. It looks like this was a good time to us!

“The inaugural stop of Van Homan and Brian Kachinsky’s Uncovered contest series at Mason Dixon Skatepark kicked off in a big way. People were hitting rafters repeatedly, wallriding the top of garage doors, and getting fed pizza by judges mid-run. After nearly burning down the whole place with his non-stop fuego in the finals, Pennsylvania’s Mad Mike Guth took home a well-deserved first place.
