This time around Scotty, Cory Berglar, Vinny Mannino, Big Boy spend a day cruising around with Stew Johnson while they work on a little something for the X Games! Oh, and if you didn’t catch on from the title for this one, Big Boy gets the worst spinal of the year.

“Today’s video we go out to 2 street spots with the crew but we have 2 special guests along with us and the first is Stew Johnson a legendary BMX filmer that is working with X games filming a profile piece on me that will play during summer X games July 13-16. I also finally announce that I will be announcing on live TV during BMX park, street, and dirt! Big Boy had the worst spinal that he has had in a very long time he landed so hard on his back and he could not breathe for the next minute and was making some scary moaning sounds and it was insanely scary! After that we went and we met up with our second special guest my old friend Augie Simoncini! He came from California to come hangout for the day and ride! We had an awesome day and excited for more to come!” – Scotty Cranmer

Check out some more action from Van Homan, Jason Enns, Garrett Byrnes, Mike Escamilla and Rob Dolecki as they cruise a few more pools and do a little cleaning on one. Such a good BMX video. Watch this, then make sure you watch Pools Gold Part 1!

“Episode 2 of 2

Van Homan (FIT/Dans Comp), Jason Enns (Volume/Demolition) and Garrett Byrnes (T1), together on a Southern California adventure consisting of hopping fences and surfing some concrete waves? What is this, 2002?

Nope, this actually happened a few months ago early in 2015, though this was the first time all three have been on a trip together since the Criminal Mischief filming-era over a decade ago. And it was on the opposite end of the spectrum as what would normally be defined as a “filming trip.” It was more so essentially a week-long riding vacation (literally for Garrett), and these legends reminisced about old memories, and made some new memories to last a lifetime. Stew Johnson captured this experience for your viewing pleasure; hope you enjoy. Garrett’s MVP award is on the way… ”
