The Radavist

It’s been a while since I’ve posted some BMX content but here’s a great one to fill the void:

“So here it is at long last. This was filmed over the Summer when we first decided to put Stevie onOSS. I’ve known the kid since he was about 15 and he has always told me that he wanted to be on the OSS team but I wanted to wait til he was a bit older and more “well developed” to make it official. I love Stevie because even though he’s got all these crazy tech moves, Jeff Martin helped shape him into a really legitimate street rider. And on top of that he’s just one of my best friends and the nicest kid you’ll ever meet in your life.

I hope everyone enjoys this. If you do, subscribe to TCU on Youtube, follow us on Twitter and like our Facebook fan page.

Also this was filmed by Mike Mastroni and edited by Charlie Crumlish which is kind of like Gucci Mane covering a Beatles song.”

The Come Up

This video is too good. What else would you expect from Defgrip:

“I recently had the opportunity to travel to Japan with Brian Yeagle, KC Badger, Joseph Frans, Broc Raiford, Chad Kerley, Alex Magallan, and Greg Illingworth. They went over there to do demos, but afterwards Brian, KC, Joseph, and I rented a car and took off on our own with the goal of seeing as much of Japan as we possibly could. It was much more of a recreational trip than a riding trip, and we had one hell of a good time. I put together this little video with bits of footage I shot while shooting for a Ride UK article and some footage Joseph shot with his GoPro. Nothing beats exploring interesting and unfamiliar places with your friends.

Stoked to see some riding from the almighty Ninjacats. Sol, I’m pretty sure you could have done a bigspin in there!

SPINLDN

I always enjoy DUB BMX‘s videos and it’d been a while since I posted one. The latest from the team is from Seamus McKeon. You can’t help but enjoy it all, but my favorite lines are at 1:20 and the ender. Holy shit.

Yeah, the weather’s been really quite pleasant here. Sorry to rub it in! Enjoy your weekend, however you can…

This video rules. Hands down. It’s also great seeing a positive voice like Darryl Nau have a few words in this piece. Props to Simple Session for having a section for girls.

Stoked to see the web release of this, coming off the Bicycle Film Festival.

The guys at Full Frame Collective interviewed Austin-local photographer and BMX’r Sandy Carson. I’ve long been a fan of his work and his current projects are very interesting. Check out what he’s got to say over at Full Frame Collective.

I’m not going to lie. I’ve spent a fraction of the time I usually spend on the computer this week because Tracko’s in town but when I caught wind of this, I had to post it up. Seriously. Empire BMX‘s Bad Idea fucking killed it and Collateral BMX just posted Tom Smith’s section.

PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND CHECK OUT COLLATERAL BMX HERE!

I love watching Kevin Porter ride almost as much as I like getting in arguments with Empire BMX on Twitter. Kevin’s style is one of the most unique in BMX and I’m sure he was stoked to get out of Chicago for 48 hours. Bummed I missed you this time man!

Juliet’s a rad girl and I’m stoked she’s still riding bikes. Check out this video profile of her and what she loves to do in London, including being a cat cuddler.

Erik Elstran is the man. But you already knew that, based on the title. This is a must see. Don’t miss it.

If you don’t have a local shop that carries the Albion, fear not, more and more back issues are being uploaded each month. The most recent addition is Issue 7. Pick up an e-copy here!

Puerto Rico looks like a rad place to spend some time with your riding buds and who better than FBM to show us why.

This video from BSD has been making the rounds on the internet over the past few days but that’s not keeping me from posting it. Even if you don’t like BMX videos, watch Alex Donnachie absolutely kill it (at the 4’45” mark).

I’m still wondering how the hell Bad Idea didn’t win an award at this year’s Nora Cup. It is so good! If you haven’t bought the DVD yet, Empire uploaded Sean Sexton’s part.

This was one of my favorite BMX DVDs this year and FBM‘s just uploaded the whole thing online. Check out Thousand Yard Stare above. So brutal!

There are very few photographers who continue to shoot sports like BMX with a Hasselblad and the Full Frame Collective team is one of the best. Check out Cubby’s rail hop for example. Perfect timing! Check out more at Full Frame Collective.

Crumlish dishes out some insanity via the streets of Austin and beyond in his newest video for OSS. The creativity exhibited here is mind-numbing.

Fuck you too, Charlie.
