The Make: Executioners From Shaolin

There’s not much that will make you take your hat off, put down the bowl of Special K and cheese on toast in the morning.. (shit living right there) but the new Make video that just dropped yesterday is a whole load of quality shit right there! With riding from Marv, Clarky, Tommy C, Orlando, Sandy and Ratkid you will not be disappointed.. unless you are a park rat who’s never seen real street or the way China actually looks if you go an explore more than just the tourist parts.

Filmed on a recent trip to China with the team over 10 days exploring both sides of the coin and finding some of the best runs of street i’ve ever seen on a video. Fast as hell riding, lots of peg action and launchers left right and centre. Oh also you remember that thing about sticking a chain on a rail years back in the Animal videos to stop other riders sessioning the spot? Well the guys on here take that ledge to a whole new level. Sit back and enjoy.

Just like the title says The Count and Chicken have a signature frame together and it looks pretty tight! Here’s the promo which The Make have released just yesterday, there’s some cool spots in there and also some local ones (well to us anyway) – I can’t wait to see one of these frames in person!

Cookie – Feebs

Here’s our first bike check with The Make BMX rider Martin “Cookie” Cook. He’s been riding hard up and down stairs and clipping every curb in a furious attempt to get a pinch flat with these new Animal tyres he’s been running but they still are holding up. Is this the end of pinch flats? Read on to find out what else he’s running and some photos of all the details, including his amazing hand painted graphics that he did repping his sponsors.

Throwback Thursday: Chris “The Count” Lee Byker Days

/

February 21, 2013

/ H Man

This shot isn’t even that old, it was taken in 2011 in the infamous Byker (Byker Grove) area of Newcastle. We needed a promo photo for the Seventies catalogue for The Make section so Chris and I headed out to this rail that he wanted to get a grind to grizz on. It’s right outside a metro station (underground) so it’s sometimes a bust but not normally as they’ve usually got bigger fish to fry. We did a few different shots but this one came out the most tweaked, I almost cut his head off on the framing but as he flew higher and faster out of the rail on this attempt.

A simple two flash set up, the main flash was set to F9 and the rim flash would have been about F11 but it didn’t pop as much as I’d wanted. Either way though it came out sweet and we were both happy with it. Enjoy this weeks Throwback Thursday and we’ll see you next week innit.

The Make: Vampires in the Snow

/

February 8, 2013

/ H Man

Well it’s been just over a week since the snow melted up here in Newcastle but we are now clear of it and the riding street riding has been getting done once more. Back in 2010 we had loads of snow around Christmas time, normally this would deter most BMXers from attempting to get out of bed let alone take advantage of the snow. However the one and only Chris “The Count” Lee and crew decided this could be a great opportunity to ride what normally wouldn’t be a spot. Over in Heaton Park there was a set of stairs that had been transformed into a flat bank and at the bottom we built a kicker over the fence to make it possible to ride. Below you can see one of the photos we got from the escapades, of course the run out was nigh on impossible to roll away from so when he landed it was a case of either stopping dead on the spot or being chucked over the bars..

Chinos: Cookie’s 25th Birthday Sesh

January 15, 2013

/ H Man

A good crew met up at the weekend in near baltic conditions to have a session at Five Bridges, the crew was Olly, Pete, Jake, Newrick, The Count, Cookie and myself (H Man). Newrick had the VX2000 at the ready and clocked enough footage in a hungover state (very much like the rest of us) for a quick wed edit to celebrate Cookie’s 25th. Hope you enjoy the ride, thanks to Grey Haven for the link.

The Make in China

January 10, 2013

The Make Re-posted this old gem from a couple of years ago when they had taken two separate trips to China. The intro to the video reminded me of an old iconic BMX video, lets see if you can guess which one.. The video itself is about 18-19 mins long, it has some pretty amazing spots in it and there’s some good laughs and some hammers dropped!
