We've been huge fans of Jason Enns here at DIG for almost as long as we've been around (anyone remember 'that' cover?) so we were stoked that Snakebite's Shad Johnson finally caught up with him for a long-overdue podcast. Enjoy! "After a few good Slams on Jason's mini-ramp, we headed inside and talked growing up in one of the coldest places I have seen produce rad riders, early 90's Canadian scene...

"I was beyond excited to sit down with 80's Vert legend, the one and only Josh White. Josh was the first big freestyle rider to make it from my area of the country (the Pacific North West) so you know I was full of questions for him! We talk about Josh's quick rise in BMX, his touring days with GT, what made him step away from BMX and most importantly what has gotten him back on his bike riding ag...

"Early in Summer 2019 I sat down with Cameron Birdwell over at Oscar Gonzales' house and we talked about how he grew up in the Norcal scene, riding with Ryan Nyquist & Chad Kagy when they all were young, his years riding for 2-Hip, his crazy tour life that covers 2-hip tours & Warped tour, & his battles with addiction and how brought himself back. I was so excited to hear what Cam had to say and i...

I sat down at home in Portland with Bruce Crisman, a genuine street pioneer who not only heavily pushed the progression of freecoaster riding, but was also an XGames champion.

Our first interview with this guy just over a year ago was an education, to say the least, so for the latest episode of our DIG x Snakebite podcast series Shad Johnson sat back down with Dom Phipps to talk with him about the planned 2nd edition of his successful 'Wall To Wall Freestyle' book project. This is shaping up to be another comprehensive project about the history of our much loved 'sport'...

For our latest DIG BMX X SNAKEBITE podcast I was super excited to sit down and talk BMX with long-time friend and legit legend, Mike 'Rooftop' Escamilla! We cover his early days, filming for his break out part in Dirty Deeds, the unspoken ’rules’ that crept into late 90's riding, what it takes to film a video part, and so much more! If you know Mike you know he speaks openly and this episode pulls...

"It was so much fun doing this podcast with the legendary Simon Tabron. I was excited to talk with him about the amazing vert scene the UK had in the 80's and 90's, as well as vert rivalries, 900's, what type of riding he likes to see and so much more. We even went off the rails and talked about how a bike really feels, breaking down how Simon looks at his bike now compared to 20 or 30 years ago....

I was really excited to sit down with the legendary Eben Krackau after us going back and forth on social media and being complete nerds about bashguard bikes, old videos and endless random BMX trivia. Eben has went from being a young 80's prodigy on Haro to being on one of the most core companies of the early 90's with Homeless. Despite a very early setback, Eben always had the knack and the skill...

In this older episode Shad caught up with Trevor Meyer while he was on tour, and with a little help from Micah Kranz and Chris Morse, talked about painting Prince’s house, life on the road, why he always rides the biggest bikes. And of course, his dominance of flatland contests during the 90’s. So go ahead and hit play!​​ A www.digbmx.com release in collaboration with www.snakebitebmx.com/ Subscri...

In order to update our DIG X Snakebite podcast series we thought it would make sense to upload Shad Jonhson's first ever podcast which was originally released just prior to the start of our collaboration early in 2015. This one is with the one and only Ron Wilkerson, who is quite possibly the 'punkest' guy in BMX, and someone whose influence runs a lot deeper than you may think. This is someone wh...

For the latest episode of our DIG x Snakebite podcast series Shad Johnson sat down with Dom Phipps to talk with him about the epic new book he is working on called 'Wall To Wall Freestyle'. This is shaping up to be possibly the most comprehensive project ever undertaken about the history and influence of BMX freestyle and is much more than just an 'old school' BMX project. Listen in as Dom discuss...

Shad Johnson and Rob Dolecki sat down with style G-O-D Chase Hawk on a rainy day last Spring (2016) at his townhouse in Austin for Chase's first podcast. He covers a lot of ground, including his first exposure to BMX at 9th Street, his racing days, witnessing the explosion of the Austin population and riding scene, stealing sandwiches from Wawa during summers staying in Bethlehem, taking everyone'...

Welcome to our latest DIG x Snakebite podcast and this time round it's Arron Ross, someone who has undoubtedly made a mark in BMX and as we remarked in our recent DIG 99.5 print interview, is someone who by standard BMX Pro terms is somewhat of an unusual case. "He exploded into BMX some fifteen years ago and took over through his self sustaining fission energy. With radiant bikes that mirrored hi...

​​Nina Buitrago​ is perhaps the best known and most respected female BMX rider in 'our' wide world of bike riding. Earlier this year Snakebite's Shad Johnson sat down with her in Austin and talked about pretty much everything, starting with those early days of growing up on Long Island and being mentored up by Manmade's Daren Meenan and street legend Vic Ayala. ​ We follow that with a chat about N...

One day late in 2015,​ and after BBQing and riding the legendary Dave Volekers' backyard ramp in his hometown of San Diego for about an hour, I sat down with him and pressed record for this latest DIG X Snakebite podcast. We discussed the worlds first ever street contest, his Dyno days, coming out of retirement to ride in the X Games, caring more about true soul riding more than competing, and so...

We up with the legendary OG UK vert shredder Lee Reynolds and sat outside his shop 'Hunt & Gather' in San Diego to talk all things Old School BMX and beyond.

Keith Treanor has been around. From being a team rider on S&M in the early nineties to his involvement with Menstural Cycles (one of the first spin-off brands from a core bike company). From stand out parts in legendary videos like Dirty Deeds and S&M BMX Inferno (a part which he hated). From being a visitor to an early Backyard Jam in the UK (a trip which had a huge impact on him and those he met...

You may not be familiar with the name John Buultjens (or even be able to pronounce it - hence his nickname 'Scottish John') but this guy's story is a true BMX fairytale of sorts. Brought up in Scotland UK he seen his way through some very tough times both on and off his bike before moving to Australia in the 90's where he eventually became involved with Colony Bikes, Forgotten and his own brand Pi...

Pete Augustin is one of kind. Inspired in kind by the legendary Dave Vanderspek he was one of the first guys to literally put some 'meat' into the early 'meet the street' contests. Always going against the grain with a gnarly zero bullshit approach Pete has never stopped riding but yet has never really fitted in. Late in 2015 we were over at a BBQ at Dave Voelker's house and luckily enough the leg...

We sat down with Van Homan while he was visiting Portland late in 2015 and had one hell of an epic discussion. It feels like we covered almost everything and anything ranging from how much of a game changer Standard 3/8's heat treated axle's were when they came out, to the classic Trailblazin' video, filming for both the Little Devil videos, keeping that mindset to keep pushing your riding as you...

We sat down with Eddie Fiola, concrete ruler and the original 'King Of The Skateparks'. We go over riding in the late 70's to early 80's, Jeff Watson, his GT days and how that ended in the middle of BMX's biggest recession, the movie 'The Hangover' and how Ed Helms used to ride plus so much more. Eddie was BMX's first super star and it was awesome to learn and hear how much he cares about BMX and...
