HAPPY FU YEAR
2011 was an awesome year for us, huge thanks to all our furiends and fuamily for all the support and good times this year.
Expect more of the same plus extra dinosaur dicks in 2012.
CANVAS RIDER
Been wasting time with this game called CANVAS RIDER while my videos render lately. Excellent way to waste time. Plus if you use Google Chrome it’s a free in-browser app. Build your own tracks or ride other people’s tracks.
Similar to LineRider but better.
You’re welcome.

CREME DE LA CREME @ THE BAKERY
Damn this is a good reminder of how much crazy shit went down at Brian Kachinsky’s Bakery this year. Here’s hoping BMXFU can get in there in 2012.
So much good stuff in this from Ben Lewis, Tony Neyer, Christian Rigal, Bruno Hoffman and more. BK, we need an edit of you murdering that place!
RYAN NYQUIST, BITCH
BOOM!
Posting this up in honor of his first Fu Flow package going out today. Never thought I’d be sending shit out to Ryan Nyquist but that’s bikes, bud.
Dude is still killing it, this run is insane. Here’s to a 2012 resolution to try and meet up with him somewhere to film some fu666 shit.
WHY BMX IS BETTER THAN SKATEBOARDING
I can’t say I’ve ever thrown my bike and had something fly back and hit me in the face. Plus you get more girls, take notes kids.
ROLLERBLADER GETS SLAPPED IN FACE BY MTB MORON'S...
This is amazing, a little kid charges up a box jump landing and unbeknownst to him, a mtb idiot is doing a 360 flyout. His front wheel slaps the kid across the face pretty perfectly teaching them both a park etiquette lesson they won’t soon forget. One cannot help but point out that a bmxer’s normal sized wheel would have cleared the kid’s face perfectly and they both would have...
FTK: JOEY COBBS
The year is 2000, bikes weigh 50 pounds and most people are running at least one brake with a gyro.
Slowly but surely, dudes like Edwin Delarosa, Ratboy, The Gonz, and Vic Ayala started getting coverage with no brakes on their bikes. Shortly thereafter the brakes started coming off everyone’s bikes.
I remember the first photo I saw of Joey Cobbs he was doing a can-can footjam on a...
YOU GUYS WANNA DO SOME ACID?
People from Florida are strange and make strange things. This hurt my brain alot but it’s still pretty sick and I can’t even imagine how long this kid spent making it so it’s definitely worth the post.
Would have hit harder with crazier crashes but some of them are still pretty deece. Slow mo nutjob FTW!
BUYSTUFF: WEBSTORE UP NOW
Just made a real quick Bigcartel for you pals looking to pick up our new video, sticker packs, and t shirts in a few weeks.
Hit the “WEBSTORE” tab up top or CLICK THIS LINK to check it out and help us rep FU worldwide.
JACK LEONARD @ JOYRIDE 150
One of my favorite up and comers from Ontario Jack Leonard with a quick one from Joyride150.
Kid’s got nollie trucks on lock. Trick looks cool as shit.
I guess this is for his sponsor, To Wheels shop in London. Get them to place that GUY STUFF order Jack! haha
PL2011 PROMO
Let it be known that Mr. Devin Feil takes his time. He knows what he likes. A fine leather couch and a long sip of water are all he needs to sleep soundly at night on his big puffy air mattress. He doesn’t change bike parts too often and he likes huge chunks of steel protecting his spokes so that he doesn’t have to buy new wheels more often than once a decade.
With that being...
PHOTOSPOT: JORDAN KRUPA BY ANDREW WHITE
I had a lot of submissions for this feature on the site over the last few days. A lot of them I had to turn down for being a little too basic. Told a lot of kids to start thinking a bit more outside of the box.
Today’s first Photospot is a good example of what I’m looking for in a non riding photo. Andrew White (not the Nashville one known for shooting photos) actually shot a...
BARNEY REPPIN FU
Check out legendary west coast street rider Eric “Barney” Cuiper, the first dude to do the side to side handrail grind transfer, repping a FUMAN on the headtube. dasswassup.
PAT QUINN THE CROOKED GRIND PIMP
Ok, let me start out by saying I think PQ is one of the most underrated east coast street riders out right now. I met him over the summer at a contest in Rochester and he blew my mind by doing a perfect front foot overcrooked grind to 180 down a legit sized park rail with stairs.
He just threw up this video from his 2011 footy and it’s sick as fuck. The 180 to backwards feeble, halfcab...
OSS2: DNVR NGS TRAILER
Here’s the trailer for OSS’s new FREE FREE FREE DVD that you can ORDER HERE.
We spent a month in Denver and got an insane amount of clips. I’m real real stoked on how the video turned out and can’t wait for everyone to see it.
We’ve run into some duplicating problems, which has been in style for dupe services lately, and it’s taken a few weeks longer with...
NASHVILLE NERD STRIKES AGAIN
Our pal Andrew White has a feature up on DIG where he picks out his favorite photos from the year. Our dude Greg Henry got some shine time eating a hamburger. It may in fact have been a cheeseburger.
CHECK OUT THE FULL ARTICLE HERE.
STONED FU5 REVIEW BY THE MONT
Adam Schell @ The Mont asked if he could review the video a few days ago and posted his thoughts up today.
“What a great video for what seems to be a great scene. All edited in a way that brings a smile to your frostbitten face, Van Homan’s banger from Criminal Bigchief also shows up for some unknown reason which made me laugh even harder. It seems to me that this crew is seriously...
GUY STUFF HAS ARRIVED
What a great day today has shaped up to be, just got word from shipping manager Bub that Guy Stuff copies arrived at my place in Fuville. FUcking nice!
MARV'S STANDARD PROCEDURE SECTION LEAKED
Damn I’ve never met the dude but MARV just sent through his section from his upcoming Standard Procedure DVD.
Everything I’d hoped for and more.
FTK: KRIS BENNETT
“AHHHH THAT TREE. FUUUUUUUUUUCK. *honk* WHAT!?”
For the Kids, here’s Kris Bennett’s best section and one of the top 5 video parts from it’s era. This changed a lot of things. Riders started spinning opposite, icepick grinding subs out of quarterpipes, switching their feet for opposite lookbacks, listening to Jimmy Eat World, buying Volume Bennett frames, and...
PHOTOSPOT: DAVE KRONE BY NAVAZ
Got a lot of submissions for Photospots so I’m gonna do a few more than usual the next few days. Send all photos you want considered to fumissions@gmail.com
Thanks to Navaz for this dope photo of CULT’s Dave Krone. Shot in Philly at The Spot. Give Navaz some love and CHECK OUT HIS BLOG, filled with more of this kind of good stuff.
CHESTER BLACKSMITH-WTP ANYTIME NOW
HOLY COW
Chester is the man. Deserves every bit of what he’s gotten back from riding and more. Also he’s been on Fu flow ever since Greg H carved BMXFU into his bike.
This section is straight bangers, watch it now.
Standard Procedure
“Heading down to The Welly tonight for a pint?”
“Yeah, standard procedure innit.”
In less than a month, Marv is going to be premiering the follow up to his two previous videos: Nang and Fairplay.
The final piece of the Trilogy will feature Dan Benson, Tom Curtin, Timeel Lewis, James Singam, Marv, James Cox, Dan Cox, James Newrick, Jon Gorrigan, along with some HHH and...
RE-UP: CRAIG PASSERO'S LOTEK SECTION
Real good times shooting this section, it came together effortlessly like every Craig project. If you missed this the first time around, screw your wig on or it’ll get blown off by some of these tricks. If you have seen it, it’s worth a re-watch because I made this and I still am more and more impressed every time I watch it.
The best part is… Craig’s GUY STUFF section...
PHOTOSPOT: TIM COYNE SHOT BY LEE PATTON
Freecoaster tuck no hander in a mini ramp=a photo I’m not used to seeing. Pretty dope.
Anyone not familiar with Tim Coyne WATCH THIS SHIT NOW, LIKE RIGHT NOW, HE FULLCABBED A SPINE ONE TIME.
FTK: MIKE "ROOFTOP" ESCAMILLA
This episode of For The Kids isn’t so much to influence as it is to raise awareness for a style of riding that isn’t seen too much anymore.
This is Rooftop’s section from the Etnies epic “Forward”. It was the first section in the video and I remember the level of anticipation my friends and I had when we first put the VHS tape in, and when this section played it...
Eric Marshall Embassy Edit
Some good riding clips of the karaoke pimp Eric Marshall and a couple of funny ones of him being himself. Edit is deece. Luke Santucci put this together. Watch now! And I need you now tonight, I fuckin need you morrre than ever! Seen on the Northern Embassy.
United: Down time DVD Online
This is going to be up on every bmx website obviously, but it is definitely worth the watch and the post. I knew this was being sent out with the latest issue of the Albion but I’m stoked to see that they put it online for everyone to see. Enough talkin, start watching this.

WESLEY MCGRATH ON STRANGER
This kid’s dope, new addition to the Stranger team. No idea where he’s from but that tire ride he did at the end is incredible. Saw it in person last winter, heard some kid had done it and now we see the clip. So much scarier in person, it’s a death drop on the other side.
DQYBJ5: MERRY FUMAS
Real stoked on this… Here’s a Christmas gift from BMXFU to all of our pals and guys out there.
Thanks to Chris Arriaga (yes, that Chris Arriaga) for the 3d Fuman and Glidecam for hooking up a rig for a few of these shots.
JACK LEONARD SELF FILMED
Chilled out little self-filmed day edit with Jack Leonard doing the nollie pimp bars I have come to know him for. Looks fun.

HOTBUDR
Finally got a chance to peep Chase D’s new mixtape from his Hot Budr crew. Sick as fuck.
His spots remind me of our Niagara and Buffalo spots so much, this feels like riding around our neighborhoods with the fu guys. We didn’t ride Jersey enough this year anyone wanna do a trip out in the spring?
GUY STUFF: MAN JUGGLES CHAINSAWS IN SLOW MO
GUY STUFF is en route to me right now. Here’s a fun video for the Guys out there who are into chainsaws or juggling.
DIMA OSOKIN AKA HE DOES A HANG 5 TO TAILWHIP IN...
Holy fuck, this is insane. This dude hit me up on facebook a few days back and sent me this edit, I just got around to watching it and realized he’s the dude that did the first ever hang5 to whip I POSTED A FEW MONTHS BACK.
This edit is on another level… he does an even cleaner, bigger hang5 to tailwhip, a legit hang5 toothpick where he’s standing on his non grinding peg so...
LUC LE GRAND
Luc is a friend of mine from France, he rides for Stranger and he’s hilarious. In this ESPN feature you get to see the Van he customized to live in and travel around Europe riding. You also get to hear his funny french/english way of speaking. The way he says “good liiiiife” at the end made me crack up.
We spent a bunch of last winter riding around California and it was in...
CHRIS SQUAD
FU farm team member Chris Squadrito sent this to me last night, it’s his welcome edit for Chris Reez’s shop outside of Rochester called Outlaw Boards and BMX. Both Chrises involved here are the man.
I was real psyched on feeble luc-e 180 switch cab bar and that switch feeble manny feeble 3. East shore skatepark looks fun too.
SAM GET LOWE
Canadian bmx at it’s finest… Sam reppin for Wethepeople in their recent video “Anytime Now”. Hope we see a full section from the GH man in the next WTP DVD.
JAKE SEELEY OSS EDIT
I got a preview of this a few months back when Mastroni was making it and I was blown away by a bunch of the clips… Seeley has some crazy bike control and all the tricks always come out squeaky clean.
While you’re at it go peep THE NEW OSS SITE which got a complete facelift.
FLIP CLIPS VOL. 4
This is amazing, Scott Marceau is a sick and twisted genius. Somehow I scored a few clips that I completely forgot about that Scott sniped in Manhattan a few months ago. Nice!

COASTERSAURUS CHANGED MY LIFE
Came across some lost clips from last year, put this together to archive all the last of my cassette footage… good riddance. Been coasting since may and I’m not looking back.
JACK LEONARD + PALS
I rode with this kid a few weeks back at the Inflow FU5 premiere, he kills it. Nollie bar pimp. Here’s him and a few other dudes riding a plaza they call the Barracks.
