For the next installment of Old Gold we have this edit that Calvin Kosovich put together for us back in 2014. Filmed by Callan Stibbards, Graeme Scott and Jordan Dentamaro through out Perth, Albany, Melbourne and a line from a famous San Francisco spot at the 1 minute mark which ties in with the SF B roll footage throughout.

Calvin was already firmly making his mark on the BMX world back then, he had a couple of solid sections in Let it Bleed and Still Bleeding Black and Blue which he also filmed the majority of and edited himself. He had also just been picked up by Kink and Vans after riding for now defunct brand The Set. I'm pretty sure this is his last section filmed at home before he moved to America. 

As you would expect from Calvin there is some big rail moves, some big gaps and  a sprinkling of tech moves throughout. Enjoy!

The modern internet era has a habit of slapping you in the face with fresh content multiple times a day, you can sometimes forget about some old gems from the past.

Given that, I have decided to make a weeklyish blog post highlighting some old gold video/edits from West Oz's rich BMX history, an archive, so that everything will be collected all in one place.

We have a team of rippers but I didnt want to limit this to just the Local team so there will be posts about all West Oz riders, the common theme will be either they are from WA or filmed the section here.

Also worth mentioning if you want to see a collection of cool WA photos from past and present, Jamie Mauri runs a insta page called @perth_bmx. I highly recommend you follow. 

For the first installment of Old Gold, MItch Morris dropped this edit for the shop back in 2017, filmed and edited by Bryce Ruksenas, The song by Blondie has a dreamy vibe, you feel like you are floating through this edit watching Mitch's super tech style of riding with a few burly bangers thrown in. A stand out clip at the time and still now is the ice to crankflip/bar (helicopter?). Mitch made it look too smooth, so much going on there, you didnt really see these much at the time (much less out of an icepick) and still dont now. Mitch used to do these in a hop on request and I bet he still could now. Anyway enjoy the vid, Bryce killed it on the film/edit. Enjoy! - Mike

We have been dropping sections from 2015's Just A Game over the past month, to hype up the newest vid from Callan Stibbards and friends, Game Over.

Luke Snelling would be one of Perth's most underrated riders, I mean we know how good he is, but he's not all over the internet so unless you have witnessed him casually killin it in person, or seen this section, you wouldn't know.

Check out Luke Snelling getting wild and grab a copy of Game Over to see what the boys have been upto more recently.

We live in an age where video's get lost on the internet a week after they have come out, we have had some really amazing edits put out from our team riders and now we have a website and blog I'm going to re-up them from time to time. 

Calvin Kosovich was one of the first team additions after we opened in August 2013 and he put together this edit for us which dropped in February 2014.

Calvin was already on the Kink AM team at this time and had just moved to California I think, there are a bunch of good clips from when he was on The Set too which found a home here. I'm sure that this whole edit Calvin is running 48 spoke wheels and a 14mm axle front hub to hold up to his riding abuse. Killer timeless song choice too but that is to be expected from CK.

Filmed by Callan Stibbards, Jordan Dentamaro and Graeme Scott and featuring clips from all over Perth, Albany, Melbourne and SF/LA in Cali. Enjoy!
