Unit Riders – Super Slow Mo with Kyle Baldock
This is what you get when you put Unit Riders, a $250,000 camera and Kyle Baldock together. Simply put, this is pretty damn impressive.
“Filmed at 1000fps with the $250,000 Phantom Flex camera in Village Roadshow Studios on the Gold Coast, Australia, this shoot combines one of the world’s best BMX riders, Kyle Baldock, throwing down a handful of incredible next level tricks to give an all new perspective of BMX.
The epic rise of action sports is documented alongside a painfully personal tale of human tragedy and triumph in ‘The Art of Progress’, a free film released by Unit.
Following his dreams of being the best in BMX, Kyle has won multiple Dew Tour events and is regarded as one of the biggest threats to take home a gold medal at the X Games in Los Angeles next week.

United – Nash Cranks and United Tires Giveaway
Product: United – Nathan Williams Signature “Nash” Crank
There was a sneak peek of Nathan Williams’ signature cranks that popped up a while back, but it looks like United finally have them available for you to pick up. The Nash cranks are 2-piece cranks that feature 4130 heat-treated tubular arms with a heat-treated 4130 22mm 48-spline spindle. The cranks are designed for easy instalation with the use of only one bolt to keep everything tight and feature rounded edges to prevent ankle bite and a flatter rear for resistance to bending. The Nash cranks come in 170 and 175mm lengths with a weight of 1.80 lbs. (820 g / 28.9 oz.) and come in black only. United also include the tool to install and remove the cranks and even give you some grease to make sure they go on smooth.
The cranks are available now and you can take a closer look at Nathan’s cranks here.
