Just when you thought you couldn't be more amazed by Garrett Reynolds, PropsBMX.tv releases a re-edit of Garrett's bio video that features the attempts of some of the bigger tricks. The nosie bar down that huge drop is the ender in this version, and for good reason.

So, in case you don't understand what each of those things in this blog title have in common let me explain. Garrett Reynolds is a teenage professional BMX rider from New Jersey. His talent on a bicycle is beyond measure and he has the hardware to prove it. Seven gold medals in X Games BMX Street. Dew Tour BMX Park standings leader as of now. Winner of this year's NORA CUP Street Rider of the Year award. MTV2 star in the show "Five Months to Freedom." And he's only 19; nowhere near stopping.

Oh my bad, he ALSO won video part of the year for his part in Nike 6.0's 'WRITING ON THE WALL.' He's this super modest and nice kid just riding his bicycle and loving every moment of it, but he is to BMX what Kanye West is to rap music right now. Just without the "jackass" attitude. (yeah, I used an Obama quote)



Thumbs up, Garrett! I give him full credit (surprising considering my usual negative attitude towards anybody and anything) because he really earned everything he got. He is taking a street style of riding and applying it to a park course like nobody ever has before and beating out the top park names such as Daniel Dhers, Scotty Cranmer, and Dave Mirra.

That is an extremely hard task when the park pros are doing 360 backflips, and triple tailwhips, and frontflip whips. But none of that amounts to anything without style and grace, something Garrett defines in his riding. Just look at that thumbs up air!!!

So congratulations to Garrett Reynolds and here's to more good things to come. He's gaining ground on the Dew Tour, has the X Games on lock, is an MTV star, considered the best rider by the fans and by other professional riders... he's becoming the biggest name in BMX and he did it without an AXE BODY SPRAY commercial. Without a RIGHT GUARD SPORT commercial. Without a BURGER KING WHOPPER BACKFLIP type commercial. No GILETTE EXTREME SPORTS SHAVE type commercial. He did it through his love of BMX riding that led to such skill.

I hate BMX. So last blog I complained about so many videos going up when I asked them to go down. So, even more went up. This list will be longer. I'm either going to rant about something in this blog or the next... so look for my rant about stems and other bike parts.

Subrosa finally releases the stem we have all been drooling over, the Hold On stem. In the gallery, you will see a stem that, much like the new Kink stem, has been CNCd to bits. I will rant about that in a future blog...

I hate bike checks. But Macneil rider builds are always a treat. Here is Travis Sexsmith's...

The frame pic is of Mutiny's new Lucky Strike frame... Josh Bedford's new sig frame, GET ON IT!!!

So. Liam Fahy Hampton is a great rider for Colony Bicycles, and he recently got some signature grips out that you can see in the gallery. They're pretty cool I guess. But what's better is his video part, which you can watch below from Colony BMX! Also, look for his Hell Stallion frame/fork kit from them...



Haha, Odyssey is amazing. Here's a video of their latest on their front hubs. Volcano bolts. Lighter, smoother, slimmer, unnecessary. Regardless, the video is kinda funny and cool. Look...



I love Stefan's riding style. Very dialed in and precise. His hair's too poofy though. Here is a very high quality Carhartt edit he did recently. WORTH WATCHING. Sketchy last manual for the win...



Albes Team Edit. Maybe this is in response to the Staff Team Edit that recently happened? Sorry, but Staff wins this battle. Big Daddy and friends FTW!!!



Pfohl Films releases another rather good edit this time of Joey Cordova at woodward and some dirt jumps! Watch it...



This is Addison Sasso doing what he considers to be little tricks on curbs and ledges... you know...



Sean Richany. 13 years old. Premium BMX and Staff BMX I believe... holy sh!t



Another edit of the 2009 Stephen Murray Jam from Chris Wilmhurst.



Federal uploaded Steven Hamilton's part from their video. Such a good rider, to see more look for his Can I Eat part on youtube...

Some text-like news. Daniel Dhers won the Simpel Summer Session in ESTONIA.

Ryan Sher has a nice bike check on ride probably from the Japan Trip.

And Kyle Hart rides professionally for Subrosa now. Go Subrosa!

My verdict for today... too many videos in BMX. Please stop the web edits!

Levi's Clip of the Week - Nathan Williams Mix - More BMX Videos

Mark Webb Total BMX - More BMX Videos

Josh Perry won this year's JoMoPro contest and also took best trick I believe with a 360 bar catch bar catch to whip. I know that probably does not make sense to even the riders out there but basically he is doing a 360, two bar spins, and THEN a tail whip... which should not be possible. Either way, he ran through Jersey recently and stopped by Staff BMX to do this video interview and there is even some quality riding at the end so if you don't like talk... just skip it I suppose. But watch this video nonetheless...
