GT BMX - SERIOUSLY FUN. It's here!!! GT is currently premiering their new 20-minute DVD "Seriously Fun" right here on the site for 72 hours! The video is amazing, from Brian Kachinsky's BANGER opening section, to the sleeper Rob Wise section, grind technician Jeff with Glasses' part, Albert Mercado's light-hearted and uber-creative section, or the savage Dan Conway's HEATER of an ender. There are also appearances from the rest of the team like a short but sweet section from Jason Phelan, and a mix from the AM and flow crew.

A few sponsors are still to be announced, but we have the support of:CSG/GT Bicycles, Box BMX and Lake Cycling (via Moore Large), WD40Bike, Tioga (via Extra UK), Vans, Thor MX (via Madison), 100% (viaDecade Europe) and RSD who are making our jerseys”. “I’m stoked that we still have support of many
