It's almost a Tunney Tuesday (although it isn't in that this was all posted on Monday, I'm just posting it on a Tuesday 'cos I had loads to do today) - Defgrip got together with ex-Dig/current-ESPN writer, rider and general font of knowledge Brian Tunney to create one of the more interesting BMX-related interviews I've read online. Click here to read through it, here for Brian's 'personal' site, and here for his predictions for 2011. There aren't that many people out there who have been as involved in all levels of BMX as Tunney has over such a sustained period of time, so it gives things a little more depth and interest compared to the usual lashed together Q&A type stuff with whoever happens to be flavour of the month that appears on various sites from time to time.
Ever since I first got linked to an old episode of Buttery Ass Mondays I've been pretty much hooked on TheBerrics, so it's interesting to see a video from Cult filmed in there. It's weird not seeing the setup being filmed in the usual Berrics style, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Some cool lines go down and everyone appears to be having a fun time which is what it's all about. Seeing a car/van full of 'big name pros' getting so visibly excited about going and riding somewhere is good to see, at least they're appreciating the opportunity!
One person who very much appreciated the benefits of being a 'pro' rider - to the extent where he stepped down from the pro team as he apparently didn't feel able to live up to his side of things due to his study commitments (you can read an interview with him here about it, and also get to see a super nice photo of a rail-ride to whip) - was and is Eli Platt, who's section from the Into The Void video went up today. He's also got some choice clips in Anthem II, don'tcha know.

Mixture...
You want Eclat stuff? Pijin's got what you need. New drop of Eclat stuff is up on the site now, including the delightfully awesome looking Gonzo seats. Been waiting for them to come out for a while now, somewhat typically after I just bought a different seat. I lose...

Anyways, someone who loses in the pedalling fast at stuff stakes is Liam Fahy-Hampton. His Run At Me Slut section was amazing (click the tag at the bottom to find it), and this one's pretty cool too.
Dan Lacey has a video interview up on Woozy - click here for the text and photos, and click Play to watch it, I guess. I had to watch it on mute which kinda doesn't work for a video interview, so it's quality is unknown to me at the time of writing. Sorry...
Photos of Mike Aitken's first rail went up a few days ago, now his first up-rail too? Boom.

For more photos, and the chance to see Tate Roskelley with a real big fish, click here.
Laaaaaastly, a bit of history - Eli Platt made a name for himself with this video, then went on to make the awesome Micreation vid too, and then featured in a bunch of other cool videos of various descriptions. Trooper. Watch and enjoy...
