The Head Angle Podcast – Brandon Loupos

February 28, 2020

The latest episode of The Head Angle Podcast has arrived. This time around Tom Boorman and Matt Holmes sat down with Brandon Loupos to talk about everything from how he got into BMX to where he is today bouncing around the world riding contests and getting ready for the Olympics. This one is 2 and a half hour long, so there’s a TON covered in this one, so hit play and get to know Brandon a little better!

“From his first steps into BMX at age 11 to becoming the first UCI World Champion just 15 years later, Brandon Loupos has chased a dream that many said was impossible.

His drive and single minded focus is a far cry from his school years, netting him X-Games gold and showcases just how following a passion can lead to greatness. Especially if you’re prepared to sacrifice everything.

The once ‘Mini Mirra’ has overcome more than a few challenges and is now on track to represent Australia in the upcoming Tokyo Olympics, writing his own place in BMX history alongside his cherished childhood idol.

And while the stakes are now higher than ever, it’s his straight up love for riding that keeps it all in check.

We’re more than a little stoked to bring you this insight into a rider who wants to bring more to BMX and his legacy than just that iconic gold medal.

Talking to the past, present and future of BMX in Australia.

The Head Angle Podcast – Eddie Fiola

January 7, 2020

The Head Angle is back after a little hiatus, and they’re back with a banger. This time around Matt Holmes and Tom Boorman sat down with the one and only Eddie Fiola for an interview! This one takes on a lot of history and stories that you won’t want to miss out on! Eddie does not disappoint with this one! Hit play and give it a listen!

“There aren’t many who have stood at the top of a generation of riders, untouchable for their unmatchable style, progressive riding and wins in competition. Names like Hoffman, Mirra, Aitken and Reynolds spring to mind. Yet before them, one name defined freestyle in its infancy, possibly more than anyone will ever do again. We were stoked and more than a little humbled to sit down with one of the greatest.

Eddie Fiola

From his early days in the burgeoning Californian concrete skatepark scene back in the early 80’s, Eddie’s ride into the history books of BMX is more than well documented with endless covers on the likes of Freestylin’, video parts and tours around the world showcasing his ability to blast the hell out of anything and look stylier than anyone doing it. Far from just a rider, his ability to market himself to the world meant he could make a career out of BMX, a well paid one at that and one that saw him step beyond the BMX industry and onto the big screen, a move that has seen him part of more than a few Hollywood productions since the seminal BMX flick ‘RAD’.

Kick back and take in this podcast we’re more than a little proud of with the one and only, the Flying Banana, Eddie Fiola.

Colin Mackay – The Head Angle Podcast

April 17, 2019

The latest episode of The Head Angle Podcast has arrived and this time around Matt Holmes and Tom Boorman have Colin Mackay on the show to tell his story from how he got into riding, making the move to the U.S, riding in big contests, transitioning from a Pro rider to working for brands like Haro and now his current job, Vans, and much, much more! Colin has a long, amazing history in BMX and this is a super good listen! Hit play and take it all in!

“If there’s one rider that showcases just how far you can go on hard work and determination it’s gotta be Colin Mackay.

From humble beginnings not unlike any Australian rider, his drive and determination to take his riding to the world saw him forge a path that nearly every Australian rider since has followed.

His time spent on US soil now spans twenty years, yet his Australian pride runs deeper than ever. From the podiums, his sponsor changes, his place in a video game and current role as Team Manager for the biggest team in BMX under Vans, we delve into Colin’s rich BMX life. A life that still revolves around the simple thing that started it all.” – The Head Angle Podcast

Just when you may have thought Xave has said it all, things went much deeper this episode and he came through with the most important and powerful messages he’s ever said into a microphone. Sober.
