So, this was a blast. 2014 has a been a huge year for us at DIG with our decision to go online after regaining our independence, 21 years and 99 print issues in. During that time we've amassed an incredible collection of BMX  related imagery which we've rarely had the chance to share in any meaningful way beyond those first magazine appearances. We've got something very special planned for print in 2015 but meantime we put together this photo/art show in conjunction with the Vans Rebel Jam weekend to highlight many of the riders, photographers, artists and writers who have inspired us to keep DIG going and pushing BMX In a positive direction for so long.

A huge thanks to House of Vans for allowing us into their home for the weekend and likewise to everyone who showed up to have a look. Hopefully we sent you all home with some good BMX memories. 

Look for an exclusive video from the night soon too.
