After the incredible S&M / Fit day at Ray’s with the biggest crowd ever under that roof, I met up with Stew for a power 3 hour filming session in a bunch of the different rooms at the park before he needed to be at the airport. Fortunately, this was one of those days where things were just working out and we were able to get a lot of clips first try.

I’m honored to have had a video filmed by the legend himself, Stew Johnson and I owe a big thank you to S&M, Fit, Moeller & Melissa for helping it happen!” – Brant Moore

“After close to two-years of C*vid-induced isolation, it was time to get the band back together. The plan? Assemble at Clint’s compound to shred the Bear Bowl and roast Northeastside, then jump in the bus to head to PA for the Posh/Catty Jams, followed by a final leg at 9 Acres and adjacent dirt churches.

The result? A trip for the books. With Stew Johnson behind the camera and Clint Reynolds, Mike “Hucker” Clark, Matty Aquizap, James “P” Nutter, Ever Peacock and Lukas, Nate and Shane Halahan in front of it… a (dare we say it) instant classic is born.

Huge shouts to the entire Northeast trail community for the hospitality and BMX in general for the stoke. Dirt Rules!” – S&M Bikes

Stew Johnson – Palaver Podcast

August 16, 2019

Here’s one we’ve been looking forward to since Chris Doyle let it out that he was working on an interview with Stew Johnson for the Palaver Podcast. Today is the day that the interview dropped where it turned into over 2 hours of amazing stories and conversations covering Stew’s history in the industry and his film work, along with a lot of other things he gets into like making the “Real BMX” videos happen for the X Games. Stew isn’t a guy who likes to get in front of the camera much, but he did a great job with this. Hit play and take it all in!

“For this interview, I sit down with legendary BMX video maker, Stew Johnson. Stew is responsible for some to the most influential BMX videos of all time and has a career that has spanned nearly 25 years. On a personal level, Stew’s videos had a direct impact on my riding, the way I dressed, and the music that I listened to. I think the same could be said by countless riders from my generation. Stew still continues to push BMX in a positive direction through video; he produces X Games “Real BMX” on ESPN; a show that highlights street riders and filmers and shows what goes into filming a street video part. Watch/listen and find out more!” – Chris Doyle
