Ben Towle was able to find some Saturday night refuge from the cold winters chill to put his tyres on some wooden goodness at the Ghetto Park in Grimsby, UK. From unique lines to technical bangers Ben was able to defrost enough to get the wheels turning. A handful of hours and these are the fruits of his labour.
Curfew In California; the chance to get tires on some unfamiliar terrain in the Californian sunshine. Kick back and enjoy 4 minutes of United's Seamus Mckeon, Andrew Lazaruk and Mike "Rooftop" Escamilla as they get to action in some Cali pools.
It's not always just about the tricks...
“Time was limited as Jo Gass was soon to be heading to Australia, so at the beginning of October we went to Basel, Switzerland for what would hopefully be a productive day to get this edit started."
United have been real busy of late, with some new team additions and a whole load of trips filming for their latest video offering, 'Affirmation' - a banger of a 30 minute team mix filmed over six months in 2019 (and featuring some footage that has been sat on for a while). Featuring Ben Gordon, Kris Bunnage, Jack Seymour, Jack Gruber, Alex Valentino, Frasier Hill, Justin care, Jeff Kocsis, George Duran, Fooman, Jordan Okane, Harry Mills Wakley and Miki Fleck. If you need any Affirmation that United have one hell of a stacked crew, then this it.
The plan was a simple one; a week of driving and camping throughout the south of the UK, hitting up some bowls and trails along the way, then finishing at the Boyley Jam in Hastings with Fooman, Emerson Morgan, Chase Quantrill and Andrew Lazaruk. A small crew, but a fun one nonetheless. Sometimes though, things don’t turn out quite as you hoped they might...
Following on from a year long ACL and meniscus recovery, United's Fernando Laczko was ready to go in hard on a video, and after nine months of filming it turned out to be one of his best to date. Shot throughout Spain - Fernando definitely pushed the boat out on this one. Gap to grinds galore!
United have given smooth as silk team rider Harry Mills-Wakley his very own lilac signature colourway for their increasingly popular Incarnate frame. Harry went for a signature Lilac as his colourway and then put the new whip to work on the not so dry streets of England. Teaming up with Oscar Daesche, this duo put together something special. Enjoy!
Harry Mills-Wakley, Tom Deville, Fernando Laczko, Jordan O'Kane, and Fooman travel to the French city of Toulouse to sample over eight centuries of architecture. The guys come through with some serious heat in this and with teammate Alex Valentino in tow behind the camera, needless to say, it's a pleasure on the eyes.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
