Memory Stick - James Newrick - NSF2

It's hard to explain how sacred BMX videos such as this were...

29 Mar 2016

By James Cox

Anyone around my age with an interest in street riding should be more than familiar with James Newrick's NSF 2 part, which was released on VHS in 2002. Even now, whenever I hear that Peter Hook bassline on Joy Division's Shadowplay it makes me want to go and hop something in a bleak Northern setting. The BMX world has changed so much since NSF 2 that it's hard to explain how sacred BMX videos such as this were. Maybe to me this one holds some extra sentimental value because I suppose buying this video was my first step in a direction that would ultimately lead to my becoming friends with James, eventually being lucky enough to call myself a small part of this scene, and actually end up living with him and a handful of the NSF crew in Newcastle a few years later. But that's another story altogether...
