Nathan Williams “Here And Now”

Leave a Comment

2021 has been an absolute BANGER of a year for Nathan Williams, and it looks like it keeps getting better! Here’s the brand new “Here And Now” video that is a documentary style video following Nathan on a road trip, with amazing riding and insights from Nathan. Add in Will Stroud and Darryl Tocco behind the lens and you know this is an absolute MUST SEE. Hit play and go along for the ride as Nathan hits the road!

““Hit the road with Nathan Williams as he embarks on one of his solo journeys, with his dog Jameson, his bike, some camping gear, and not a ton of pre-planning. After a whirlwind year of trips, confinement, NORA Cups, and everything in-between…we decided to just simply document Nathan taking some time for himself and doing what he enjoys to do a few times a year. An integral part of the process that we don’t normally get to see. This is Nathan Williams “Here And Now”. A BMX Documentary by Darryl Tocco and Will Stroud, presented by Kink BMX and Cinema BMX.”” – Our BMX

Mongoose – Special Edition “Stranger Things” Max Bike

Leave a Comment

Here’s one for the “Stranger Things” and old school BMX bike fans out there. Here’s a look at the new special edition “Stranger Things” Max bike from Mongoose. This bike is designed to look like the bike from the show, but it’s also just rad looking if you’re a fan of the older style BMX bikes. Check out this promo video Will Stroud produced, then get more details below. This is definitely one that might be worth looking into if you collect old school BMX bikes or just have a kid you want rolling around in style. It’s definitely not built to take the abuse of regular BMX riding, but definitely cool to take a look at!

“Pedal into the world of Stranger Things with the special edition Max bike — available exclusively at Target starting June 30! Modeled after the bike Max Mayfield rides in Season 3 of the show, this bike features tons of rad Mongoose BMX-design elements straight out of the 1980’s.

Whether on the way to school, off to grab the high score at the arcade, or on a mission to save friends, fans will be able to bring the world of the Netflix Original Series Stranger Things to life with this special edition bike!

Cinema Is Fiending the 13th Jam

Leave a Comment

The Cinema BMX and Fiend road trip has been going strong for about a week with plenty of heavy hitters in the van hitting up spots and throwing jams at local skateparks. Here’s a raw cut from the Cinema Is Fiending The 13th Jam that went down at Sheldon Skatepark last Friday. Plenty of dialed riding from the team and even a few clips from the locals mixed in. Enjoy!

“All the best bits from the final stop on the Cinema Is Fiending Tour at Sheldon Skatepark, featuring Garrett Reynolds, Chad Kerley, Nathan Williams, Ty Morrow, Colin Varanyak and more. Garrett’s huge 540 couldn’t have looked any chiller if he tried!

In The Cut – District of Cinema

Leave a Comment

Last week we got a look at the amazing District of Cinema video that the Cinema BMX team came through with after a few days in Washington D.C. Today, we get a look at a raw cut of footage that didn’t make the cut for the video, along with crashes, laughs and random clips they collected along the way. Check out the footage below and make sure you check out the full video after. It’s safe to say these guys had a good time on their trip!

Watch the full “District of Cinema” video here!

“It’s hard to find a more progressive street team in BMX and it’s safe to say that the Cinema team is above and beyond the call of duty in every department. So when Nathan Williams, Dakota Roche, Chad Kerley, Garrett Reynolds and Corey Martinez got back in the van and hit the streets of DC, it’s safe to say pretty much everyone was watching and the video that dropped was indeed full of magic. There’s nothing else about that we can add that you don’t already know, but now here’s our behind the scenes look at the big reunion for our latest episode of ‘DIG BMX – IN THE CUT’. This is a good one!
