This is probably the 453475327th video I post of Adrian. But the fact is that the kid knows how to ride a bike. Proof is in this short edit that was filmed in only two days. Good stuff Adde! (Good job with the filming and editing Samuel Segawa!)
I just spotted this new edit from Oba Stanley. If you didn’t know, Oba rides his BMX for Simple Bikes (and Animal). He’s also a very nice dude. Edit embedded for your viewing pleasure:
Oba has got a bikecheck up on the ESPN site. Since Oba rides for Simple Bikes and Animal Bikes his setup consists almost entirely of Simple and Animal parts. Good stuff.
Of course I was pleased that some love was given to a particular part of his bike with this nice shot and caption:
My buddy Antti who runs Signature BMX, a web shop in Finland who happens to also be the distributor for Terrible One products, just got his bikecheck posted on the Terrible One site. He’s got one of the new Ruben frames decked out with a bunch of goodies — including the complete wheels from Simple that features that nifty Eject hub I’ve heard about somewhere.
Here’s a sneak peek of his bike, click on the thumbnail to get warped to the T1 site so you can check out the rest of the goodness.
Adrain Malmberg is definitely blowing up in the BMX world. He’s had a nice streak of great web edits, of which most would have been posted here at some point, and he’s been doing a lot of traveling and riding and also picked up a few really good sponsors on the way.
He recently scored an interview in the french mag Cream and now he’s the latest to be awarded a Fat Fav’s over at the Fat BMX site.
Simple Bikes young rider Pim van den Bos has a pretty sick setup for getting tricks dialled in. The camera on the tripod is hooked up to the TV, presumably via a hard drive of some sort, and there is an adjustable delay for the playback on the TV. This way you can do your trick, and after you land just roll around and view the stunt you just did on the TV. If you should miss the trick, or want to watch it again, it’s easy to just rewind and check it out again. Pretty tech.
I’ve been busy with things these past couple of weeks and I’ve been unable to spend time posting in here. Now here’s a random dump of information and videos that have been piling up.
Childstore, the best BMX store in Sweden, and maybe the whole of Scandinavia, recently went live with their new website. Go check it out. It’s fresh.
Tempered Bikes have some sneak peeks of their new stem that is coming out. It’s nice looking and different in some ways. Also, there’s a welcome video for their new recruit Michael Vockenson.
James Wade has the new photobook for january up. As usual, filled with some good random photos.
Simple Bikes have news up about Oba Stanley, Jeremy Muller, Eduards Zunda and Shoji Tanaka.
New web edit with Adrian Malmberg riding an indoor park in cold Sweden:
Eduards has got a video up on the Rode US site, it’s of him shredding an empty, yet to be finished, skatepark. He’s banging out clips full of his usual style.
