Schlachthof BMX Game of BIKE: Nico van Loon vs. Marcel Profittlich
Schlachthof BMX Game of BIKE: Tim Güntner vs. Fabian Bongers
Today we got some raw dogs for you, an extended cut of Stahl's welcome to pro we dropped last week featuring some extra angles and behind the scenes goofin'. For 7 mins you can be a fly on the wall for the filming of Mike's welcome to pro edit!
Prepare your eyeballs for a short but super sweet dose of Chase Hawk and his signature colorway on the Etnies Marana Slip. Riding doesn't get any more buttery than this!
We hosted a Go BMXing day Jam last month to co-celebrate our race guru Bruce Morris's birthday. Starting at the shop we had a session on the ramp, then headed down to Fairfield skatepark for ride and a bunny hop comp before heading to the after party brewery for some hard earned pints!
We love the Aussies, and we love fresh footage from Lewis Mills! Who doesn't? Fresh hair cuts, eggs on the barbie, a bit of skateboarding and enough BMX to fill your boots what's not to like? Hit play and see what Lew and friends get up to 'IN BETWEEN WEEKS'.
We are very excited to announce the screening of our BMX documentary "Crossover" at Ikebukuro HUMAX CINEMAS at 7pm on July 9th 2021! Five years of filming BMX riders in Japan and all across Asia, the U.S. and Europe. This is a full-length documentary of BMX across generations and borders.

Number of bikes in your collection: I have never counted —— and I am afraid if I do the number will scare me.
Since you were part of BMX in the early days over in California do you wish you had saved more from the early days?

Congratulations on your book release. How did that come about?
Jelle van Gorkom: Thank you. Well, to be honest, we (Ad van Ham, a documentary editor and me) were talking about the documentary about my latest rehab, and I felt there was missing something and then we came up with the idea about my book! He always wanted to write a book, so do the math and the book was born: “Accepteren & Doorgaan” [Accept & Continue]. Ad asked me the questions, I gave him the answers.
How long did it take from the early talks to the final product?
Jelle van Gorkom: About an intensive 1,5 year! From the idea to the actual book!
You have always been a good talker, was it difficult for you to fill the pages for the book?
Jelle van Gorkom: Thanks! I've always been a good talker indeed. Since my accident I've lost let's say 20% of that! My speaking was unfortunately one area in my brain that got hit pretty badly! But work is in progress so it is getting better and better even if I say so myself.
