Got a bit more work to do, so stealing some time!
First up, Mark Noble has interviewed BuildTheWoods creator Homer for ESPN. Unsurprisingly, it's a pretty good interview - check it out ESPN now!
There's an article on a trip to Malta in the new Ride, and now have an accompanying video with it:
Orchid have put up a cool little video of some dudes riding an outdoor park, and in related Orchid news, Van Homan's epic interview is now in it's third stage.
Dedicated BMX only shop based in Southampton in the sunny South of England!

Happier stuff...
ESPN had this video up today, well worth checking out. Yeah, yeah, he's goof - but so what, the riding's awesome!
Awesome on ESPN is another of Mark Noble's awesome series of interviews with various movers and shakers in the BMX industry, this time is the "Part two" of his interview with Profile. Click, read, learn.
Props have a new video out soon, #73. Still using that same title sequence, troopers.
Rich Wilson's first job since getting the Nike gig was to document NASS, which he duly did. Here's the 'non riding' edit that I saw on Ride's site:
"Lil Jon" took time out from being a mediocre rapper to do a web-video for Sun-Ringle:
I've been mentioning the whole BMX media thing quite a lot recently, and how I'm pretty sure there's change in the air - perhaps this is the first sign? According to TheComeUp:
Alex Raban sent over this day edit of Ian Munro shredding a school. Apparently it was supposed to be a “paid for” exclusive edit on a site, but it got turned down because the riding wasn’t up to par.
I wasn't particularly keen on it anyway, but it's interesting that that's how sites are operating these days. Point of the web-edit's apparently been missed?

Mark Noble/Sandy Carson
Mark Noble's got a new Framed feature up, with the awesome dudes from WTP. To read it, click here. It's got some more pics of the new Warriors frame too, how nice is this?!
I'd seen some news about Sandy Carson buzzing around BMXFeed without really checking it out, but then I gave his site a click. He's got a new project up called God's Love Is On This Island, and it's well, well worth checking out. It's not riding related, but it's pretty powerful stuff.

Represent.
Southampton RPRZNT.
ET Variations RPRZNT.
Fly RPRZNT.
Gazza RPRZNT.
Old school KP/DS RPRZNT.
Federal RPRZNT.
Trails RPRZNT.
Vic Ayala RPRZNT.
But yeah, enough of that. I'm pretty tired from riding a hell of a lot then going and playing football for 2 hours in a big metal flood-lit cage, so apologies for the lack of effort. I'm gonna go take my pegs off and see if my hub's fallen apart (again). Something feels awful back there.

Late.
Took my sweet time, didn't I? Busy weekends and busy weekdays mean slow posts, apologies...
First up, three trails vids (?!). No doubt someone'll get uppity about calling the first video trails, but meh...
Go to BNQT for more videos.
Pretty rad video from Heath Pinter's jam.
Derelict BMX - March in 50 Frames Per Second from Dave King on Vimeo.
A new "check out my fancy camera" (joking...) video from Derelict.
There's a bit of trails in there, but it's Brian Frickin' Foster so that makes up for the lack of soil content in there.
In other "Sweet video" news:
This is Randy Taylor's part from a recent issue of Props that contains a lot of other awesome riding of this standard, and that you should definitely buy.
Randy Taylor Bio from Adrian Sogaray on Vimeo.
Equally, the new Props is out now, so go buy that here. I've posted the trailer for that before so you should have no doubts as to how awesome that one's gonna be. (In other shop related news, the new DUB video is out right here, as are the Kink seats I mentioned a few posts back.)
Notro kicked off a few days ago, and Garrett Reynolds surprisingly didn't win. He did, however, win best trick for the line you'll see at the end of the video. It's amazing how most US (I know it's Canadian...) comps still look identical to comps from years ago. Looking back at super old issues of Props, it's like nothing's changed (apart from the amount of spins/whips, I suppose), compared to street riding which is significantly different to what it was like 'back in the day'...
(EDIT: Ride's insane coding and "WHY DID YOU THINK IT'D BE A GOOD IDEA?!" autoplay feature mean you're going to have to click this link. It's probably not worth it, unless you fast forward to the end to see Garrett...)
Part 2 of Jim C's interview with Mark Noble is up on ESPN, go read it!

Video-tastic.
Sunday have produced a trailer for their new video, Up, Up & Away, and here it is:
BROUGHT TO YOU BY SUNDAY!
Bonus: There's a rad interview by Mark Noble with Jim Ciel... Cielen... over on ESPN that's well worth a read.
HideoutBMX have also put out a pretty substantial edit, and here that is:
HIDEOUT BMX from Enter the Treehouse on Vimeo.

Scraps...
Mark Noble is continuing to put up cool stuff on ESPN, showing again why he helped steer Ride so well for such a long time. In this article he has a pretty interesting interview/talk with Chris Harrison, product designer for Federal. Well worth a read!
In semi-related news, Ride have a video up on their site from the Corby sessions that took place while they got the content together for the latest Role Models issue. Seems to have been a controversial issue, but people talking is better than people keeping quiet. Being made to think about things is good...
There must've been some hectic friction burns for Jason Phelan.
In that interview issue of Ride, the long overdue Josh Bedford interview is featured as a full interview. He pulls some pretty crazy lines for it, has an interesting story to tell, and seems to generally have something worth saying. Anyways - key thing is that after KO'ing his collar bone, he's now back riding and testing a signature frame, according to Mutiny, which is where I grabbed this pic from.
Whilst we're talking about interesting, different individuals, Ian Schwartz - who's been pretty under the radar of late - has a bikecheck up on RideUS's site, which is where this tech little widget is from:
Actually, that's a lie - I just went to copy the embed code and they've disabled it, so you've got to go here to check that out. BONUS! Ian also has a few things to say on the Sunday site, including some stuff about new shoes, new spots and new Lotek videos. Apparently Rich Hirsch has remembered he's made some of the best videos around, and is going to do more. Good times!
Probably should've put this earlier, but ESPN have a new video up of Brian Hunt that seems fairly similar to one I've posted before, but I'm fairly sure isn't the same one...
You be the judge?
Check out from 00:37 - 00:44 - potentially the most hectic rollback I've ever seen.
Speaking of hectic, Proper have a new stem coming out in their disappointingly non-flight enabled Microlite range:
Here's the details straight from Bikeguide, which therefore might mean they're not actually true:
Specs:
- 6061 T-6
- 52mm reach
- 249g (8.78 oz)
- Recess allowing for the fork compression bolt to sink flush for a clean look.
- Rounded back that stays out of the way of your knees.
- Internally relieved and slotted top to bottom (stronger than side to side).
- Additional clamping area for slip-free bars.
S&M have a new shorter Redneck XLT coming out, and a new Randy Brown frame, but their site is so abhorrent that I'm not even going to link to it. Just imagine a slightly refined, stubbier Redneck, and a fancier Fit Dehart frame. Hey presto!
In semi-local scene news, Tom Chilvers, who some of you dudes at Pijin will know, fully mangled his ankle tonight:
Whips: Fully not worth it. But seriously dude, get well soon!
"Myspace" Dan has upped and left the UK now, having left Southampton a week or two ago. It's actually his birthday today/yesterday (3rd March), which he spent somewhere in Cambodia - happy birthday Dan!

Noble Piece Prize #3
I mentioned Mark Noble's side-blog before, and made reference to him having a planned George French interview, and here it is.
In totally unrelated news, but news that is awesome for me, having greased the hell out of everything on the front end of my bike, it no longer clicks and makes me have bad thoughts about snapping bars or cracking forks. Winners.
