United “Downtime” – Full Video
So, unless you were already drunk by the time the video was released yesterday, there’s a good chance you already watched the United “Downtime” video. If you haven’t, well, stop reading and press play already. I’ve watched the video twice already and I’m not only really impressed, but I’ve come to a few conclusions that I tweeted which you can check out after the jump…
There’s more that I could say for conclusions but I figured 7 was more than enough reasons. It’s Christmas so there’s a good chance you don’t have anything going on today so kick back and watch this already. Happy Holidays everyone!
“Full length United Downtime dvd from December 2011 now online for your viewing pleasure. This dvd was originally available with The Albion BMX Magazine #5
Between mid January and the end of June 2011, following the release of our most recent full length DVD ‘This Is United’, we rented a small vacation apartment in Huntington Beach.
During this time, team riders from our pro, am and world teams flew out to visit, ride, relax, film some clips and soak up some of that Californian lifestyle.

Dane Searls – Giants of Dirt – Part 3
Dane Searls will forever be remembered as a legend.

THE FINAL CHAPTER IN THE GIANTS OF DIRT PROJECT CELEBRATES THE LIFE AND DEDICATION OF DANE SEARLS, 1988-2011.
December 20, 2011 — The final video release for Professional Freestyle BMX rider Dane Searls sees him successfully ride the biggest dirt jumps in history, clearing distances up to 60 feet (18 metres) on a BMX.
The Giants of Dirt Project began in 2010 when Dane Searls brought the idea to Unit Clothing, his sponsor. Over the next 12 months, together they built and tested the line of jumps in Boonah, (west of the Gold Coast, Queensland) on the farm of fellow Unit rider Freestyle Motocross Pro Matt Schubring. Sheer determination saw Dane push through many painful crashes and set backs, including the devastating Queensland floods of 2010. Dane finally completed his life long goal in November 2011, by riding and pulling tricks through the entire set of jumps. Giants of Dirt 3 is the realization of Dane’s dream.
A custom built drop in ramp was constructed and the final jump in the set of four jumps measures 60 feet (18 metres) from dirt take off to dirt landing.
Two days after fulfilling his dream, Dane was involved in an accident and suffered critical head injuries, placing him in a coma for five days. Dane passed away on November 25, 2011 in hospital due to injuries sustained.
His death sent shock waves through the BMX community and he will be long remembered as an amazingly kind person and as a professional athlete who pushed the boundaries of the sport of BMX.
