The Radavist

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.

One of the raddest things that Texas Toast brought about were all the team road trips but I don’t think anyone documented their travels as well as the FBM family. Check out part one of their Road Trip to Texas video above and part two below! For more photos, hit up Crandall’s Least Most Blog.

Finding American-made components and frames is easier than you think. Check out what Cult’s current US-made offerings are.

It’s been pissing rain here in Philly but don’t let those soggy trails get ya down. Check out this video FBM made for Tioga!
