Just another weekend for the B Team. Thomas The Tank was well better than Postman Pat.

Void.

Just watch this.

Every other day my whole dress code switch

Yo, sorry about the lack of updates lately, I've been pretty busy riding, filming, capturing old shit and editing new shit. Expect some reasonably regular edits, unless/until we decide to just go all out and do a whole video. Cheers for all the positive feedback on the videos, it seems people are getting into what we're about, should be a good year for BMX in the northwest.

In other news, come to this tomorrow, it's Theives' first show. Only three brass in, so no excuses. Nowhere Fast is the B-Team/Jump Off's house band so get down!

Streetest Park Edit.

I still havn't quite got the hang of the editing/exporting business, hence the shite quality of this video, but here's a little edit I made of last thursday's (street as fuck) park session, featuring the B-Team. If you don't have a laugh riding, sell your bike.

DUB Rampworx Jam

Get down to this, looks like it's gonna be pretty good. Jack and co. have pulled out all the stops for this one, including sorting an after-party/video premiere in Magnet afterwards, with DJs and some insane sound system that will probably make you vomit blood.

Some old shit

Just some old photos from a few years back, just the lads having a laugh. We had best not get ripped off in the summer weather stakes this year.


The Don, cruising at Barkum.


Tank, flat out at Barkum, unfortunately sans pegs.

Addy slingin' them shits over the big bench at Woodside.

LSD Riders

Remember the LSD Riders advert in Props a few years ago?? Most insane shit ever, these guys definetly don't give a fuck about hospital or jail. I really need to see the DVD. Absolute loony bastards.

Best BMX intro ever?

Probably. The only one I can think of that comes close is Criminal Mischief, maybe Skavenger haha. Seriously this has it all; DMX, slams, fire, Eyehategod, midgets, fire, rednecks, the works. FBM MOTHERFUCKER!

AM:PM

The AM:PM video was premiered in NYC the other night, and will hopefully make it over these shores within the next month or so. You better believe this is going to be good. The web edits always have the best vibe, takes BMX back to hanging out and having fun with your mates like back in the day, before tech parts and getting coverage took over. The music is always spot-on and the riding is rad.

Get into it.

This guy.

Ralph Sinisi is a true BMX legend. Check out Nowhere Fast, Neighbourhood Superheroes, Don't Quit Your Day Job 1 and 2, FBM Albert Street, any of the Animal videos and the Skapegoat vids to see what I mean. Ralph and Animal Bikes have helped carve out and push the street side of BMX and are probably the main reason BMX's focus switched from contests to real street and video parts. Chances are you'd still have your huge bars and slammed seat without this guy, but you would probably still have your brake on and be doing fufanus at the park all day.
Street.

Nowhere Fast weekend holiday...

Nowhere Fast had a show at an all dayer in Lancaster last Saturday, so with nothing to do on the Friday night we threw the Don in the car and high tailed it for Leeds to catch Mob Rules and Brain Dead at the Fenton. Was a funny trip, even though we briefly entered the Cockpit (after some Mission Impossible bouncer fooling due to Joe not actually existing on paper), which contained bigger bell ends than you can comprehend. There's a few pictures from the weekend down there. The Don is a prime example of a true male.

The lads, minus The Don...

Lucky's Pizza, Leeds.


Dicks.


Tom and Tank gettin' suzzy 'in da club'.

Man of the hour.

Streetest Phone Edit

This video is boss, courtesy of Bengo. Raw street shit from Jay Bean, Mini, Danny and Bengo all filmed on a phone haha. Streetest lads, streetest edit.

'they call him...macheteeee'

Adam Snowdon

this is for you.

The Jump Off 2009

We are getting back into the video thing. We ain't been around for some time now, but we're coming back. Close your windows, lock your doors, hide your fucking Director forks. The B-Team is coming, bringing the fun and good sounds.

For now, here's an old joint we did back in 2003. If you watch the whole thing there's alot of ahead-of-its time shit in there. Features all your favourite local boys; Addy Snowdon, Danny Ingram, Matty Lambert, Tank, Loz Taylor etc. Merseyside BMX.

This is BMX

Fuck the X Games, fuck the Simpel Sessions, fuck the fucking energy drinks.

Pop Punk - bin it.

With very very very few exceptions, I absolutely despise all that now comes under the banner of 'pop punk' music. I'm not talking about what used to be known as pop-punk, stuff like Descendents, Screeching Weasel etc, I mean the girlyboy drivel ala New Found Glory and friends. Since when has doing a terrible impression of a girl singing about love and shit in a sickening OTT American accent been punk?! Let's take a little look at some of the lyrics these 'chaps' are throwing out there, shall we? This little ditty is an excerpt from a song by the aformentioned New Found Glory:

''Let's make a date out of the cinema
Then stay out till early in the morning
I always like it cause we take it slow
While everyone around us seems so hurried

It feels familiar, cause I've been here before
When your words
Swept the ground right from under me
Remember when you were so insecure
Now you can't get your hands up off of me''

Awwwwwwww cute...fuckoff. And to think I know MALES who like this shit!! No wonder people end up forming bands like One Life Crew, that's enough to make anyone want to kick something in the face. I don't wanna hear a song about going on a fucking date with a girl. I wanna hear a song about how you wanna turn someones face into soup, something that makes me wanna run through town at 1am swinging a bat. People only start pop punk bands to get girls, it has to be the only reason. How else can you have a whole set of songs just moaning about girls? We all have our problems in that area, but jesus man the fuck up and get it out without making me want to vomit in your face with your stupid fanny voice. If you're gonna sing about touchy feely shit, and I do believe there is a time and a place and that it can be done tastefully, then leave 'punk' out of it.
Shave your swede, ditch the bitch and harden up with a bit of Haymaker you nancies.

''There is a fight in the pit and we don't care
Cause we're not stopping or going anywhere
We're on a mission to self destruct
And we don't care who gets fucked
So beat each other with chains and bats
And we'll be your fucking soundtrack.''

In fact, on second thoughts, don't bother.

Mississippi lap dance.

This guy can make better noises than you. So good.

2009

Here for you, on New Year's Day, is a list of 15 things I want to see much less of (and in some cases never, ever again) in BMX in this foul year of Their Lord, 2009.

- God
- Electro pop on videos
- Toboggans
- Headbands
- Sunglasses
- Girl's pants (can't be said enough really)
- Doing pointless tweaks when hopping over something
- 'Club Rap' in videos
- Slammed seat/massive bars/brakeless bikes that look like everyone got them from the same vending machine
- Park riders riding street for money + coverage
- Horrendous tshirt designs that look like they came out of Topman
- Whips to the pedals
- Freecoasters
- Fixing things that ain't broke. Or should that be fixing things until they ARE broke...(hi Odyssey)
- Brakeless 'street' riders who aren't legit


And here's 15 things I want to see more of in 2009. Get to it.

- Good, proper punk rock on videos
- Scerbo bars. So far pretty much everyone I've seen riding these is legit.
- Real street by real street riders.
- Grinds. Not Luc-E grinds in the skatepark, i mean double pegs on concrete ledges. Fannys.
- Good classic bikes parts, shit that worked for years and didn't need changing.
- People realising that Adam Snowdon is king
- More DUB BMX related events, them guys have it down good.
- Non-anorexic bikes. Fuck your paper plate bike and your breezewhips. Be a man and be prepared to lift some shit.
- Proper hiphop on videos. Wu Tang, Mobb Deep, Big L, Tribe Called Quest, all of that shit. Can't stand all the plastic rap on vids these days.
- Whips to the frame.
- Vic Ayala/Will Taubin/Gonz/Zach Sprinkle appreciation.
- More kids checking out the past classics like Albert Street, All Time Low, Turbulence, Animal 1, Base Brooklyn, Sombra vids, Criminal Mischeif, Seek + Destroy
- FOUR PEGS
- More Black Sabbath on videos
- More SUN AND HEAT.


To cap it off anyway here's Will Taubin's part from an old Ride video called IN THE LIFE. I think i swapped my copy with Adam Durkin for a Primo Hemmorroid seat years ago...anyway watch and learn coz this guy is well STREETER than you, and better than most of the drivel on 'Brighton Aint Ready' (exceptions noted).
