Day 2 of our 5th year anniversary week, we have an awesome Edmonton edit from Mike Orita. Mike is a member of the 30+ club but shows no signs of slowing down/ still rides his bike for all the right reasons.

“I’m lucky to have a great group of friends that all have the same common interests of having fun and riding BMX. Thanks to all the homies and everyone that filmed or had a floor to crash on. Truly am blessed for this life I’ve that BMX has given me and has surrounded myself with people that make every moment memorable and enjoyable” Mike Boag Orita

Featuring Sean Tiffin, Sam Jepson, Jaumell Campbell, Mike Orita, Taylor Elvy, Luke Santucci, Riley Abarnyk, Jared Chilko, Isaac Barnes, Andrew Schubert, Jordan Hango, Jon Alden, Trucker Dan, Nick Dagg, Matt Walser, and more.

You may have already spotted this on DIG but Isaac Barnes is a Canadian Boss Hawg so obviously we are going to post it as well. Apparently these clips are those that didn’t make the cut for the upcoming S&M dvd. Based on how banging they are, we can only imagine how crazy Isaac’s section will be!

This summer the Transition Team headed out to Olds, AB to ride in the annual BMX Jam. After we camped out in Lacombe and hit up the Lacombe and Maskwacis parks the next day. We met up with some of the BMX Gallery 4130 guys from Calgary along so you know it was a good time.

The names Sean Tiffin or Riley Abramyk might not ring a bell for you yet but I’m sure they will after watching this. Sean and Riley absolutely killed the streets of Edmonton and Calgary, Alberta over the Summer of 2014. It was great getting to ride and film with these guys this past year and I’m looking forward to what’s next. Both of them are capable of some pretty absurd things on a 20″ bicycle so hit play! – Jared Chilko

“The majority of the team guys have been filming hard for various solo and full length projects, so getting footage for the Transition promo proved to be more difficult that expected. Everyone one the team is super close knit so when filming for this project it was all laid back, good vibes, and good times. That’s what it’s all about really.”

Yesterday was Western Canada shredder Isaac Barnes’ birthday. What better way to start your week off than with some classic Isaac shredding and Jethro Tull. HBD homie

I guess I’m out of the loop, I thought Isaac still rode for Bulldog Bikes Worldwide.
Turns out, Isaac Barnes has been out of commission from a bum wrist for a good part of this year. So good to see him running peg first into every ledge and rail again.
The mid-edit bail/peace sign montage is topped with a subliminal shoutout to his favorite crew. See if you can find it.

Trucker Dan - Fullpipe carve_

“Dan has been killing it on a BMX for a long time. And Trucker Dan has been a familiar name in the Canadian BMX scene as far back as I can remember when I first started to pay attention to BMX media. I first met Trucker almost 4 years ago when I first moved to Edmonton. Everyone I lived with, and chilled with spoke very highly of Dan, and I soon found out why. He obviously has been an awesome rider for a long time, but he is also one of the most easy going, and nicest people I have met, and hung out with. Up until the past 2 years we didn’t get to ride together too much as Dan had been suffering from some back injuries/problems that had kept him off his BMX for quite a while. Taking more than a year off from doing something you love, and have done for most of your life isn’t easy to do. But in his case it was what he had to do to get better. Myself, and lots of others are stoked he is back riding like he use to! Regardless of Dan not being on his bike for a while he still stayed pro-active in the BMX scene by making it out/helping with events, jams, and has been working at Transition BMX helping support the Canadian, and Edmonton BMX scene. I’m stoked to know Dan, and be able to say he is a friend of mine. And it’s awesome to see/know a rider like Trucker still on it, having fun, and giving back to BMX whatever he can. Here’s a recent shot of Dan doing what he does. Keep shreddin Trucker! “
