THE BANGERS - RAW - MONGOOSE JAM 2018. From Pat Casey's 540 double whip over the Cloud 9 spine to Morgan Wade's insane alley-oop 360 transfer—here's your chance to see what it takes for those wild tricks and many more to happen. The run-ups, crashes, meltdowns, makes, breaks, and everything else in between—here's a raw behind the scenes look at the Mongoose Jam 2018.
Literally get right up in the mix with the riders and filmers from the Mongoose Jam 2018 with our Mic’d Up Mix. Get close up and candid with Team Peraza filmer Peter Adam as he works with Mark Burnett and Kevin Peraza. Experience the hype machine Reed Stark and get some sound dietary advice as well. Greg Illingworth takes us for a ride while getting his Mike Aitken inspired banger. And live vicariously through Ben Wallace as he watches and hypes his teammate Morgan Wade get a one-handed double whip over the mini mega!
Mike Stahl hails from Pennsylvania and is currently killing the streets of California in the name of S&M and Madera. Mike is a stand-up dude, a true character, has tons of bike control, and a deep pocket of tricks. When Grant Castelluzzo, Jeff Z, and Dan Kruk have your back, you're definitely doing something right. This is Mike Stahl.
We had a good day out stacking clips with Broc Raiford and Jarren Barboza, working on various RideBMX and Volume projects that are due out this year. With Mike Mastroni behind the camera and Jeff Z shooting photos, you can be assured that everything captured this day was documented in pristine fashion. Also Broc takes it back to his Louisiana roots and catches a crab at the end. Keep an eye out new sections dropping from Broc and Jarren in various forms later this year! (Some sooner than others).
Not since the UGP Roots Jams have so many BMX riders ascended on central Florida like they did this past weekend for the 2018 Florideah Swamp Fest. Astatula, Florida, was the place to be this weekend, with the promise of lots of fun, plenty of sketchiness on and off the bikes, and an escape from the winter weather. Here's a highlight video featuring all the action from the ridiculously sketchy and unpredictable ramps to the perfect dirt jumps (courtesy of Ryan Herbach and Cody Diggs), to the 64 foot long Subrosa Swamp Rail, and the massive Scotty Cranmer Best Trick jump. Hats off to Trey Jones and everyone else who helped make this event possible.

This is what it takes to win the top park spot at Simple Session... Larry Edgar's winning runs from Simple Session 2017. Congrats Larry!!
Just as I stated in the street recap, I threw this edit together as a precursor to the official SS recap video I plan on doing, so forgive the lack of editing, stabilization, color correction, or..anything. With the 12 heaviest dudes making it to the finals, today should be nuts. - Ryan Fudger
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
