all of them vote for your favorite using this link way at the top this is 19 videos and this
is why i wanted to talk about this one first because this video contest is amazing like
the fact that they brought 19 bike shops together from literally all around the world for one thing
you if you've ever tried to organize any group of people more than like five people you know how
hard it is to get just like five to ten people in one area organized let alone there's 19 videos
there's at least four or five people on each one so that's like approaching a hundred people or
more with the videographers and editors and the bike shop people and just getting this together
and vans coming together with digg to put up 20 i don't know where all of the money came from for
this but there's 20 000 euros on the line that's a lot of money it's it's really cool to promote
riders and local scenes at local bike shops all around the world and i just thought it deserved
to be talked about it's pretty freaking awesome uh i only got a chance to watch a couple of them but
they were good and all of these scenes at these bike shops have awesome riders that deserve to be
talked about i'm going to pop out my chat here so i can talk to you guys a little bit easier
but yeah check it out leave your thoughts in the comments down below on the contest itself
as well as your favorite video because i haven't had a chance to watch them yet

so let's keep going here we've got the vans the circle check it out moving on from there the first
video that i want to talk about this week is the 2021 mosh at posh jam ryan avazio put together
about a two minute video from the event and if you want some trails footage you just want to
see people going high doing table tops and turn downs 360 tabletops 360 turndowns and just all of
that awesome awesome stuff definitely check this video out it's quick and it's really well done the
quality is awesome and ryan nevazio did a great job at it and that's why i wanted to talk about it
first moving on from there we've got a video with cult from makon duarte this video was in south
brazil that's where it was filmed at and it's it's a good video this guy is kind of a jibber who also
can go big does the rail hop in here and look at that thumbnail looks pretty sweet so moving on
from there we got a couple different jam things to talk about the austin allen memorial jam went down
also the 2021 9th street diy bmx jam went down geez was that last weekend two weekends ago i
don't remember but the highlights videos up on my channel and linked in the description down below
a lot of crazy stuff happened this over under bar spin on the long jump crazy gap bar spin to feeble
a lot of good stuff check that one out if you want like a diy street jam vibe moving on from there we
got some flat land for all the flatland people out there if you are a flatland person out there and
you enjoy flatland videos and for everyone else leave the types of videos that you actually would
go and watch from this news video in the comments down below so i know what people actually like to
see and like to hear me talk about and learn about to happen in the past week but this is with matt
wilhelm it's called until we ride again flatland video from him then there's one that i thought was
kind of cool here so it's called unscripted and this is a trailer for it this is a 60 minute over
60 minute long full length video that you can buy there's a flatland video which i thought is pretty
sweet so if you head over to the link in the description you can see the link to the uh where
you actually get the video at i think it's just pretty sweet so moving on from there we've got
the go west road trip uploaded to the ride uk bmx youtube channel this one features cast and downing
kaz campbell don elt and tom russell heading west but heading west in the uk not heading west here
in the us they're hitting every concrete park that they can as well as some trails so concrete
park ripping as well as trails riding for anyone who's into that and for those of you who are into
spot usage creativity and things of that nature there's a behind the scenes from the crossover dvd
and daisuki shiraishi's part in that and this is literally over 25 minutes of footage with
the behind the scenes stuff so the the crashes the things that it takes the the build up and working
at tricks things of that nature and just things that happen that didn't make it into the actual
video part is here for anyone who cares to see it and it's a longer video for anyone who might want
a longer video and speaking of longer videos i have been excited to talk about this one kink bmx
hidden gems this video was done by daryl taco features hobie doane nathan williams jacob cable
casey starling jaden mucha dan caller this video is so rad it starts off as like an
introduction a perfect intro into it where we see the writers get a little bit of insight from them
on the trip we hear from jro talking about the trip and introducing it and there's some riding
in there and then they get in to talk get into the trip and basically the basis of this is they're
going from billings montana to boise idaho with no destination no spots in mind nothing they're just
adventuring finding what they can and this is a documentation of it and it is super super rad this
i only got to like the first eight minutes of it and it's almost 30 minutes long look at this 27
minutes long i got to 7 minutes 30 seconds and it's just awesome because it's like a insight
in inside look and insight into the trip from these guys and it's not just a 10 minute long
video where we see all of the riding we get to talk to these guys or
we don't get to talk to them we get to hear from them they're talking to the camera just
talking about the trip it kind of like the the props vibe i don't want to say props because i
don't think it's meant to be like props but that that blueprint of learning about what's going on
and getting that in-depth look at the actual trip more than just the riding is what's going on here
and i think it makes it that much more enjoyable and it's a longer video for anyone who might want
to see a longer video then we got some product related things to talk about actually just one
but the next one after that's kind of product related yo jerry from pa just joined as a member
thank you jerry message me on instagram i'll get you the discord link if you're interested
in that and thank you for the support seriously the members and all of this stuff and people
watching the videos is making it so i can do what i'm doing and move towards what i'm trying to do
with this channel hopefully you guys appreciate that so moving on from there the product related
thing is the etnis and doomed collaboration for 2021 this is a promo video for it with
some riding thrown down in the streets of the uk to get you hyped according to kurt at bmx union
and uh moving on from here actually i should say who's in this
it doesn't say it doesn't say so i can't tell you but we'll just click through it real quick
so they're riding in the streets clearly we'll mute it so we can actually just get an
inside look here gibbon lines double decker buses check this one out if you care about etnies or
doomed then we've got some interview type things to talk about from colony we've got a padrico
felico 2021 video bike check so if you guys are interested in what he's riding on his bike
this dude is a ripper and has been killing it lately some of the clips that have been posted are
just out of this world and don't make any sense so if you care about what his bike is he's riding
in those clips check this one out then we've got a video that i think some people might actually
care about and it seems seems cool so it's how to film with a fisheye lens from lux bmx it's a quick
video it's only four minutes long featuring troy charlesworth to give you some tips on how to film
with the fisheye i think that some people care about learning how to film and want to improve
their skills and this is a good place to start and also i'll throw it in there too there's a series
i forget what you i think it's on the riders some youtube channel it's a skateboarding channel and
this series is called in focus there's so many videos in there with so many different tips from
like legendary skateboarding videographers and photographers in there as well that would just
teach you a lot about filming so check that one out or check that out and just search it
on youtube in focus like tutorial or how to film skateboarding something like along those lines and
pretty much everything from skateboarding translates over to bmx when it comes to filming
moving on from there we have the over clicked podcast with reuben godwin goodwin not godwin
sorry goodwin laos burnett stark and clegg featuring co-hosts ryan fudger and chris doyle
i started to listen to this one where they're talking to ruben and it's a fun time they're at
battle of hastings and it's 44 hour and 44 minutes long and there's time stamps in here so you can
see where everyone is at but doyle and fudger are talking to all of these people throughout this
and i enjoyed it so far i definitely think you guys will enjoy it too and
how often or have we ever had a podcast from reuben hearing him talk about things mark burnett
should be interesting as well that reuben story was sick yeah the reuben story talking about how
he was staying at a skate park when he first met somebody i can't remember off the top of
my head here but it's definitely a good one i think you guys will enjoy it so that being said
