This one popped up online yesterday and was worth a share. Demolition Parts posted this awesome photo of Chijioke Okafo with a fakie wallslap abubaca as a desktop wallpaper to download. You can get it for your computer by visiting the Demolition site here.
A few weeks ago I was at what is arguably one of the worst, but my favourite, skate parks in Toronto and it seemed like everyone that is local to there was out riding. Then Brandon Webster and Mike Gray showed up with Justin Browne and the camera came out. Justin Browne put together this solid short edit with Webster, Chijioke Okafo, Chris Silva, and Chris Cadot. You can also check out the video with Chijo we did at the same park here, and look for something we are working on based on Duff Grove later this summer. If you are near the park (Dufferin Street, just south of Bloor) look for a new ramp we will be donating there next week.
Chris Silva sent in this short video filmed and edited by Peter Almeida from a session this past weekend in an effort to avoid the rain in Toronto. Chris Silva, Chijioke Okafo, and George Carijutan all get down in this.
“Rainy day, so we decided to meet up and build some ramps out of skids and plywood what was laying around a local covered spot. A hammer and a few nails made for a fun afternoon.”
Chijioke Okafo has had a few bad summers now and bad luck with some serious injuries in the last couple of years. Now he’s back in the game and healthier than ever. He met up with Chris Silva one afternoon to film this quick edit at our favourite ramshackle skatepark in one of Toronto’s west end neighbourhoods. If the video is telling of anything then he hasn’t lost a thing. We also asked him a few questions about his injuries and recovery, so read his interview below along with a couple recent photos shot by Mike Headford.
We definitely thought this video was worth sharing. Chijoke Okafo’s newest video for Volume Bikes and Ten Pack Distribution. I was a big fan of his Sour Fever part and this new edit doesn’t disappoint. Also check out this photo Peter Dai sent us that he shot while they were filming. Over ice to barspin out.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, bmx dvds, and even more so Canadian bmx dvds, need the support from as many riders as possible. With web edits at an all time high, there’s less and less dvds being released and footage is forgotten days after it’s online release. Sour Fever did things right and put in work all summer to make this dvd happen and it was well worth the wait. Read on for a short recap of this dvd and make sure you grab a copy here for only $7!
Mike Headford was nice enough to put together 5 Clips edit with Chijioke Okafo and Spencer Bryant-Longo shredding in Toronto. It doesn’t get more Canadian than riding a rink/ grinding a hockey net, Chij with the two peg top corner. This is sick.
