On June 11th, Dennis McCoy and Dave Mirra R.I.P. were indicted into the BMX hall of fane. It only makes sense to dedicate this weeks OSS to the man himself, DMC! Check out his run above from the 1987 ABA Nationals in Old Westbury, NY jamming to Run DMC.

Another week, another edit from the incredibly talented Giannis Caternellis! Here’s the word directly from the man himself:
“I’m again experimenting with tricks without using pegs. I always loved Martti’s last part in (intrikat) Background and the incredible hang 5 jump straight to crackpacker and every time I listen to this song I remember this part. Enjoy!”.
Much like the amazing edit I posted of Dub exploring the inside switch b rolling undertaker concept, Keelan Phillips explores the nose manual, and continues to perfect his execution of the multiple nose manual g-turns (loved the slow controlled nose in circles to backwards nose around the 1:30 + look out for the banger at 2:30). Absolutely incredible level of execution, that takes our sport up a level!
Plenty of edits to catch up on today, including this new one out of Japanese back wheel shredder, Yoshihiro Taka Nishikawa put together Delirium distribution. Hit play!
Jean-Francois Boulianne sent in this fresh Fishbone Rebel Frame and Fork promo, check out the video and what he had to say:
“As for now it has been a real pleasure to work with the Fishbone, it as also amazing to be part of the Tribe with Alberto Moya and Yorihisa Shiota. I have been riding the Parts intensively for 3 weeks now and I love it, the 74.5 angle really does it for me and just feel so much smoother. I am really excited every time I get out for a session”
