The Grounded BMX dvd had its premiere in Aarle-Rixtel last Sunday. With OJA all set up for the premiere with a bigscreen and all that, the people who did show up were absolutely ready for it.
Kay Clauberg, Andy Zeiss and
Benny Paulsen made it over from Germany as no Grounded premiere is planned in that little country of theirs. Most riders stayed after the Tour Dur Laarbeek to watch the video and at 9pm the Play button was pressed.

The etnies movie is great.
Aaron Ross had many people shake their head with the riding he showed.
Brian Kachinski is one bad motherfucker and he can take a crash (or two). He also pulled big rails and went burly.
Sandy Carson had a great part and
Jamie Bestwick's vert part took some work. A super wide vert ramp was set up in the middle of a desert and Jamie flowed from one side to the other.

It's nice to see good vert riding in a BMX video.
Adam Baker took care of the dirt part,
Rooftop always comes up with some interesting footy and
Josh Stricker has the speed.
Taj, Joe Rich (let's go to the Cayman islands!!!),
Sergio Layos and
Garrett Byrnes had exclusive spots in their section and
Morgan Wade is plain wild. Did we miss parts of
John Heaton, Hannu Cools and
Dave Freimuth?
Brett Walker and
Kurtis Ellwell were part of the video and the banger of the video was
Ruben Alcantara.

That bridge - wallride was insane. Someone yelled: "Doesn't count!" when he took his foot off at the landing but we consider it done.
Mike Manzoori used a unique style and different music and it gives the Grounded DVD a special feeling. One that stands out from the California blue sky sunshine videos or night time street vids. We give it the thumbs up, both of them.
