Leave a Comment

Animal Bikes have uploaded their “The Animal House” video on to their Vimeo channel for your viewing pleasure. This BMX video is just under 18 minutes of pure goodness from most of their crew as they spent an entire month cruising New York City with filmer Ryan Navazio stacking clips. Needless to say, with a crew like this, plenty of heat went down. This is a MUST SEE for sure.

“Shot primarily in New York City during the month of October, 2015. Featuring full parts from Mark Gralla aka Ratkid, Abdul Fofanah and Colin Varanyak. With appearances from most of our team riders including Tyrone Williams, Garrett Hoogerhyde, Tom White, Matt Miller, Dan Lacey, Brendan Reith and many more.”

Leave a Comment

It looks like Tyrone Williams, Andy Gregory, Ikeem Allen and Jeff Crosley have fired up a new brand called “Weird Brand” and they’re kicking things off with this rad BMX video from some of the sessions they have been catching in New York City and Jamaica lately. These are two very different places, so you get some diverse spots and great riding. All in all, it’s a real good watch and we’re sure there will be plenty more to come from these guys.

Leave a Comment

Here’s one for you guys. Ryan Navazio decided to upload the BMX video from a trip to Japan that Mark Gralla, Jeff Kocsis, Ben Lewis, Tyrone Williams, Nigel Sylvester, Tom White and Nick Benson took back in 2013. This was part of the QSS 6 video that was released based around the trip. This one has been online before, but Ryan re-uploaded it to his personal Youtube channel, which was a good enough reason for us to repost it, since it’s a real good watch. Take it all in!

Team NYC BMX – Red Bull “Mean Streets 2” Uncensored

Ryan Navazio dropping some classic heat online for you guys to check out! This is the uncensored version of Team NYC’s video entry for the Red Bull “Mean Streets 2” contest that happened way back in the day. This section features riding and some extra curricular activities like heckling people and shooting guns from Edwin Delarosa, Vinnie Sammon, Tyrone Williams and Mike Hernandez. Some of you young guns might be wondering what those things are that the guys are holding onto throughout this video, and those are infact bars that had about a 7″ rise, haha. This was definitely filmed years ago.

This video was filmed and edited by Joe Cookie. Man, it’s been a while since we’ve seen a BMX video from that guy!

Andy “D-Boy” Gregory & Tyrone Williams – LAX/NYC

Here’s a rad video Kelly Bolton put together from a trip to New York City where he cruised around with D-Boy and Tyrone. This is a lot of cruising and jibs, but the film work is on point and well worth a look. This place looks amazing just to see.

“In September of 2014 on a quick trip to NYC, Kelly Bolton rented a city bike and met up with Andy “D Boy” Gregory and Tyrone Williams for a ride around the city. Rain scattered in on the only day they could meet up. Sleeping on the footage for a while, it made its way into a timeline and this was the end product of a laid back day with coast to coast homies.
