I'm not much for bike riding and I haven't owned one in close to 15 years, so the thought of doing what these extremely rad bikers do in the latest BMX "Grounded" video leaves me cringing. This epic film is the first in five parts that will be released by California-based Etnies.
Its cast of sweet-ass Etnies riders such as Jamie Bestwick, Sergio Layos, Ruben Alcantara, Morgan Wage, and Brian Kachinsky is what makes this video such a hit! Directed by Mike Manzoor, the BMX "Grounded" video not only has mad skills but epic fails. Bravo to the guys that get up and keep trucking on!
