Incredibly well made and extremely creative. Fully enjoyed it!

Defgrip is a rad site. They always have some nice feature up. Sometimes BMX, sometimes design, sometimes photography and occasionally even other things.
If you for some reason have missed that they have a store with some tees, then check it out now. I ordered one of those Quilted tees the other day. You can never have too many tees.
I just had a look at my stats for the site and it’s pretty interesting to see the spike in traffic that occurred after the post about Eject on Defgrip.net (thanks Harrison).
Now the stats can go back to the usual moderate levels of before.
Some of you reading his might remember an old BMX video (VHS) by Stew Johnson called Anthem. He made this one way before DVD’s were common and there was million dollar budgets for team videos. Anthem was truly one of the greatest videos out there at the time, I haven’t watched it in ages but I believe it would still hold the same magic. The riding was epic with mainly street, trails and some park (if i remember it correctly) the soundtrack was great and editing was top notch.
For a long time I’ve been wishing for a sequel and a re-master of the original Anthem. After reading this on Defgrip it seems like my wish is coming true. Anthem 2! With sections from Sean Burns, Geoff Slatterly, Brian Yeagle, Chris Doyle, Eli Platt, Mike Aitken, Chase Hawk and maybe one or two more riders if this lineup can’t produce enough footage. Guess the pressure is on for these boys. Haha
Empire BMX has already got Anthem t-shirts for sale and a website is in the works.
Looking forward to this release, fingers crossed that the first Anthem will be included on the DVD.
