Austin/Central TX has a long and rich history of BMX. When presented with their positive attitudes and 100% commitment to shredding any and all forms of terrain, the decision to facilitate a full-length DVD documentation of the next generation’s adventures was a no-brainer for us. These young guns are the embodiment of what we think is best about BMX: searching for dope spots, putting tires, pegs, and pedals on obstacles in creative and fun ways, and most importantly, doing it all with a smile on your face with your crew. Shouts to Cabbage Crew, Gnarnia BMX, and Jeremie Infelise for making it all happen!

Video premiere: Sunday August 16 at 9pm behind Empire BMX. Free popcorn for all | BYOB" - Empire BMX
