Yesterday a great bit of history made it’s way onto the internet, thanks to AJ @Habnad. Kevin Jones’ ground breaking run from the AFA Masters Bristol PA 1989. This was the first time anyone publicly saw the hitchhiker and the backpacker, not to mention as Brett Downs quoted yesterday, “95 percent of his run and his tricks, who else can say that?”. Do yourself a favour, whether your old school, new school whatever labels you chose, watch the crowd reaction when Jones pulls out the backpacker at around 3:58. This is without a doubt one of the influential moments in BMX. Thank you Kevin Jones and thank you AJ for the re-upload in better quality! This is golden!

London in Austin Jam
Will Redd and the London Bikes crew from Dallas headed down to the OG parking lot in Austin, Texas to promote their new DTT frame and have a jam and good times with the locals. Will Redd drops some really nice combos in this one, particularly the junkyard glide to cherrypicker, and the last pivot sideglide combo, yes I said sideglide, if you don’t know what that is, check the combo at 3:13.

Yes he misses the combo at the end, but the series of switches, speed and flow between the halfpacker pivot opposite xft hitch and the turbine xft karl jump to xft hitch are so amazing! More of this please Keisuke!

Yohei Uchino – Red Bull Behind The Stage
I’m a big fan of these insight videos, that show much more than the riding. Check out his behind the scenes with Ucchie, where he and his friends talk with English subtitles about his 2013 season and of course there is some killer riding to boot!
Must Watch! Aude Cassagne – Combo!
Amazing riding from Aude Cassagne! The style, flow is so rad! I haven’t heard anything about Aude for a long time, but she is certainly back!
