Mitch Anderson Tag

This video from Mitch Anderson is pretty great. To make a long story short, Mitch has been battling a pretty harsh disease for the last four years, and after beginning to feel stronger and healthier he packed up his stuff, loaded up his ride, and took off for the west coast. You can read a lot more about his battle and personal outlook over on his website, read his own statement below, and clear 12 minutes to watch a compilation of his six week road trip across Western Canada.

After 4 years bed ridden with constant medical care I started working towards becoming physically active again. After 2 years of hard work my health started to regain. I sold everything I could, jumped in my favorite car (a beautiful 1986 Porsche 911, modified by Rii Projects) grabbed my bmx and took off west! With no plan but to ride my bike, meet old and new friends, and experience as much as possible. It was a great success and I hope to find funding to head out east before the winter!

Here’s some Saskatchewan shredders making the best of winter. On top of a bunch of solid riding, and I hate to ruin this for anyone, but there’s a ridiculous whiplash toothpick grind in there. Featuring Zach Lokken, Jarek Mus, Steven Kowalsky, Andrew “Rich Mercedes” Richards, Mitch Anderson, Brodie Gwilliam, Tyzee, and Tristan Snider. Edited by Zach Lokken and Jarek Mus.


The part that really shuts down Let’s get Fistical, Mitch has been shredding Prince Albert, SK for a long time now. His handplant over the horse remains one of the most ridiculous/incredible things to happen on a bmx in Canada ever.

My biggest issue with web edits today is how quickly we can put them behind us. With hundreds of new edits every week, if not every day, it’s very easy to forget what we watched yesterday, last week, months or years ago. Throwback edits will be a way to bring back edits that deserve a second time to shine.

The above edit was the first Brodie Gwilliam made edit I ever saw, it was also at a time where DSLR video was just starting to hit bmx. The colors, depth of field and slo mo’s really stood out at the time, and still look sick today, plus Mitch Anderson shreds. Check out Mitch Anderson Fall 09 filmed and edited by Brodie Gwilliam. Straight out of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan.
