Nathan Williams 'Why Not?’ video part is an independent project with Christian Rigal behind the lens. With no deadline in sight the goal was to take some time, make something special and try something different, why not? Filmed entirely in 4k/5k resolution from California to Texas, this part is just under 9 minutes of insanity that will leave you wondering what you just saw, and if it was switch?
Team Halahan hit the Wheelmill for some off-season fun and enjoy a chance meeting with tailwhip sensei and resident legend Chris Doyle. Progression ensues and siblings shred!

Monster Energy Is Ready to Bring the Stoke to Japan with Its Team of the World’s Best Competing Athletes
X Games goes to Japan! The world’s biggest showcase in action sports is making its debut in Japan in a few days. Monster Energy, the official energy drink partner of X Games, is proud to bring some of the world’s biggest names in competitive BMX, motocross, and skateboarding to X Games Chiba 2022. The inaugural event will welcome the best in action sports from April 22-24, 2022. X Games Chiba 2022 marks the 64th edition of X Games since the event’s inception in 1995. For three action-packed days, ZOZO Marine Stadium on Tokyo Bay will be the center of the action sports world with a capacity for 30,000 spectators. For a distinctly Japanese flavor, the event will feature Park and Street course designs inspired by origami artwork to celebrate the host country.
More than 105 athletes from 18 countries will compete for a total of 30 medals awarded in 10 competitions across three sports. Athletic performances will be supplemented by a cultural festival experience, art installations, and musical performances by the likes of Japanese rock band Man with a Mission, who also supplied the official theme song for X Games Chiba 2022.
Once again, the invite-only event is reserved for the best of the best, meaning multiple-time X Games medalists and highly competitive newcomers. As the official drink sponsor of X Games, Monster Energy is looking forward to bringing the heat to Japan with its team of athletes and defending gold medalists in the following key events:
In recent weeks our new BMX racer, Sylvain André took part in two rounds of the US National Series where the best riders in the world met to compete again. In his first races of the season in Houston and Rock Hill, he reached the podium and won a final round!
Trips are better with Dan Banks on them - fact (unless you have to sleep next to his incessant snoring). Last year we joined the Wethepeople UK squad for the first trip since the dreaded rona, and needless to say everyone was beyond hyped to be back on the road again. We decided to focus the camera on Dan for the day and what we came back with was poop chat, crashes, and a whole lot of jibberish.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
