Big news today, although if you follow Julian Molina you may have realized something was up, but today it's official. Julian Molina is riding for GT. The BMX world got their first taste of Julian Molina back in 2013, when a photo surfaced of a scrawny kid in tattered clothes stretching a no-hander on a jalopy of a bike with only one leg. The photo was shared with the caption, “When you catch yourself complaining that your frame is too short or that you don’t like your bars, just think of this kid in Columbia, who’s roasting a no-hander on some beat up bike with one-fucking-leg. Julian is the man.” Damn right, Julian is the man. Not only was that image inspiring, but it slapped you across the face with perspective, for despite being both disadvantaged and handicapped, this kid from Columbia clearly saw no limits of what he was capable of. The key word here is limits, which, Julian doesn’t appear to have.

Over the course of the next eight years, Julian’s progression skyrocketed beyond what anyone probably ever imagined. With the culmination being the opportunity to film a video for the X Games Real BMX series in 2020. Where Julian was pitted against five of the best BMX riders in the world, each having to film a 90 second video part to later be judged by, well, more legendary BMX riders. When all was said and done, not only was Julian in the spotlight on the world stage, with the show being aired on NBC, but he also took the Fan Favorite win by a landslide.

We are beyond stoked to welcome Marius Dietsche to the United team. Marius is a heavy hitter when it comes to riding the streets and his welcome edit shows just that. With an appetite for big gap pegs and huge out ledges it's clear to see Marius isn't afraid to let loose!

All the behind the scenes from Josh Doves 'out the back' video he filmed last week. Josh uses the ramp like a take-off to the moon.

"One month and a half in Seville, one of the most beautiful city’s in Spain. It was way too hot but we managed to get the clips. Bmx in that city is just amazing and pure. That's why I enjoyed so much filming this with all the homies there. Getting clips late AM it wasn’t easy but finally nothing stops us.

If you were one to catch Ben's Heritage video last year you’ll already know he’ll choose to ride dirt any day of the week... And just as well; Ben's signature mix of original tricks and clean style all at height make his riding a site to behold. After several years in the USA, there’s something extra refreshing about just witnessing Ben do his thing at the set of trails he grew up riding in the UK. Sit back and relax...

The end of an era has come. After more than 15 years the Bensink BMX Gates compound will be taken down. To celebrate the history, work hours, jams, sessions and all the other memories it was time for one last jam. Over the years the yard has grown to be a BMX and mountainbike heaven with multiple riding options for everyone. The day was all about fun with friends with good music by a RedBull DJ, a BBQ, many drinks and a bonfire. Luckily the weather was on our sides too with sunshine all day. All-in-all made for good times, some crashes and plenty of laughs that went on till late in the night.
