Etnies Forward BMX (2002)

The first full length BMX video from Etnies and one of my all time favourites from back in the day. Outstanding sections from Mike Escamilla, Jason Enns, Sandy Carson, Brian Terrada, Garret Byrnes, Edwin Delarosa, Josh Stricker, Joe Rich, Nate Wessel, Ian Morris, Dave Freimuth, Taj Mihelich, Ruben Alcantara. Soundtrack is incredible and the video is a stone cold classic..Filmed and Edited by Dave Parrick

2024 and the Ruben section is fucking hardcore. I'm 41 now and I can say, that was the best bmx era. Tons of chromoly and tons of happiness.

Couldn’t agree more

[@Burritosarebetterthantacos]

Fuck this took me back. Now I’m 38 and BMX seems like an eternity ago😮

[@kevparker4604]

I watched this religiously when I was riding… I’m 43 now and both of my kids shred way harder than I ever did… progression

[@brandonlevy6980]

I miss my youth at 41 now. Little devil criminal mischief and any of the old fbm videos were the best.

[@DanZfpv]

I must have watched this video 200 times in the 00's. Today it's hit 201.
