PARALYZED TO BMX BIKE RIDING IN 10 MONTHS! We made it to 1 million subscribers! In honor of this milestone I said that I would get back on my BMX bike and ride at my skate park for the first time since my accident 10 months ago when I broke my neck, smashed my skull, had three brain bleeds, and was expected to be paralyzed from the neck down! I have been so lucky throughout my recovery but this video proves that there is light at the end of every dark tunnel you just need the will and determination to find it. I miss being a professional BMX rider but this video means that I will always be one I am so excited to see how much progress I can make in the future and I am so excited to keep filming YouTube videos for you all!
For the first video from the Mongoose Jam 2017 we bring you Team Casey, featuring Pat Casey, Mike Varga, Jack Clark, and camper Jake Senger.

Tioga BMX Profile - Race Recap - USA BMX Mile High Nationals - North American Supercross Series Event
Tioga Elite men sweep the Pro Podium both days at the USA BMX Mile High Nationals in Grand Junction, CO. With the Chase BMX Pros trading wins and sitting atop the Pro points leaderboard, lets take a look back at the weekend for the Elite Men and see Sylvain Andre get into the Podium Mix.
In typical English weather fashion, it rained for two days in the middle of our UK road trip so we headed down to The Base Skatepark for a session. The Box Jumps, smooth rhythm section and foam pit ended up making it one of my favorite indoor skateparks yet. The last day of the trip consisted of a chill outdoor skatepark session and some dirt bike riding at the quarry in Josh’s hometown of Cheltenham.
Brian Fox, Nick Bruce, Michael Beran, Irek Rizaev, Marin Rantes, Jose Torres, Jonathan Camacho, and more bring the heat at Poland's premiere contest of 2017!
Traveling is a part of BMX. A big part. Meeting riders at their home turf is always interesting. Where do they ride? What do they eat? How do they get around? How many riders are there? Iceland was a new terrain for me. Expectations weren't high simply because I didn't know what to expect. Anton Arnarson has always been the contact for foreign riders who wanted to explore the island. On this trip the request came in through the UCI. The first Icelandic BMX Freestyle Championships were on the program and a request came in for some help in setting up the contest, judging and in general be introduced to BMX Freestyle in Iceland. As explained, new countries to visit is always interesting and Iceland had not been ticked off so off we went.
On arrival Erla picked me up and we went to Mountain Dew to pick up some drinks for the contest. After checking in and a little tour we went straight to the park where we met up with Johann Borgthorsson, the sports director of the BFH club. The first impression was good. The park was indoors, had some fun obstacles and I could picture a good comp taking place here the next day. The BFH club is the only indoor ramp park in Iceland and set up to get the kids into skateboarding and BMX. Anton Arnarson, Ari Ranveigarson and Sindri Hauksson were instrumental in building the park which is a mix of flatbanks and transition ramps with a small mini, rainbow wallride, rail, hips, box, ledge and everything else they could fit in the former fire patrol station. It's not the biggest indoor place on earth, but if you only have 4 months with decent daylight, you will be happy to be able to turn on the
