Odyssey BMX – Blue Blood Grandstand Pedals

August 2, 2016

Odyssey have been doing a few throwback colorways lately that have been awesome reminders of the past. In 2008, Odyssey released the Blue Blood colorway for the first time and once the limited edition run of product was gone, the color was too. They have decided that Tom Dugan‘s signature Grandstand pedals were due for a fresh coat of paint and they brought back the Blue Blood color for a limited time!

The Grandstand pedals feature a thin alloy body with a 17mm center with an uninterrupted dual concave shape that is 105mm wide with 8 metal pins per side of the pedal giving you plenty of grip. Inside, you can find a 14mm heat-treated axle with 17mm wrecnh flats and 6mm broach making it easy to put on or remove them. If metal isn’t your thing, Odyssey also offer a plastic composite (PC) version of the pedal, but it doesn’t come in the Blue Blood color.

The Blue Blood Grandstand pedals are available through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Odyssey BMX worldwide now.

ATXliens

July 14, 2016

There’s no shortage of people making a trip down to Austin, Texas in the BMX world. Here’s a fresh mix of footage Charlie Crumlish put together from some of the locals, along with a ton of visitors getting down on spots all over the city!

“Charlie Crumlish decided to trick his friends.. and now ATXliens have invaded earth!

Riding from: Jake Seeley, Tom Dugan, Matt Nordstrom, Brett Silva, Kareem Williams, Brandon Begin, Craig Passero, Mag-Wheel Guy, and many many more.

There’s so much to be said about this glimpse into the weird and revered Austin, TX scene. So many inside jokes and mind trips woven into the fabric of this video that you’ll have to watch at least 3 times. Here’s Charlie’s description of how he tricked his friends..

“Over the winter I started to notice that we only filmed Instagram clips when we were out riding. Lots of good shit was happening but overall it felt like we weren’t working on anything solid or somewhat permanent. So I decided to trick my friends.

It was easy. If we were out riding and anyone wanted me to shoot an Instaclip of them, I’d tell them I would film it on the real camera and send them the clip later that evening, Naturally everyone forgot what they’d shot by the time we were done riding, and the edit folder continued to grow. A few dodged text messages later, here we are. Sorry guys! I’ll send y’all the clips now that the edit is done. ATXliens have invaded earth.” – Charlie Crumlish

Fit Bike Co. – Holla Wood

June 7, 2016

Fit Bike Co. coming through with a dialed ne BMX video featuring their whole crew getting down on spots around Hollywood. As expected with a heavy squad like this, there was plenty of amazing riding on all the spots they came across. Hit play and take it all in!

“It had been a minute since we had the PRO squad in one spot, so we decided to get the dudes together to shoot the shit and mob around LA for a few days in May.

Since this sort of thing doesn’t happen all the time, we enlisted Jeff Z. to shoot some stills and Scott Marceau to make moving pictures.

We weren’t trying to invite anybody to “Bangerville” with this one, but a few days in Hollyweird with the boys went down a treat. The takeaway from our pow wow was that we should pow wow more often, which means the FIT van may be showing up at spots near you soon – so keep ’em peeled.

Shout out to Mr. Marceau for capturing the crew!

Riders: Jordan Hango, Morgan Long, Brandon Begin, Matt Nordstrom, Ben Lewis, Shawn McIntosh, Brian Foster, Van Homan, Tom Dugan, Justin Spriet and Ethan Corriere.

Filmed/Edited by: Scott Marceau

Music: “Morgan” by the Cloud Nothings”
