Best BMX video ever?

David S. Wallens wrote: So, this is interesting. I have been on that Old School Mags site the past few evenings. I guess I could turn around and dig out my old mags, but, well, there's stuff in the way. I just realized something: I'm pretty sure that this is the first BMX mag that I bought: BMX Plus! from January 1983.

I have to look up my first BMX Action. It was Fall of 1983 with Toby Henderson doing a lake jump on the cover. There was a Super BMX shortly before that--I remember it being full of Bandito and Navajo ads.

That SE Mike Buff is awesome. That would be high atop the list of what I'd want.

Wait...wut...all this time, I thought you were talking about a xxl frame with a 22" top tube...22" wheels is a thing? So, I just read an interview about the genesis of that S&M 22" frameset, and now I'm totally interested. There may be a build thread in my future...

Yes, 22-inch wheels. I'm a convert.

Here are the wheels.

This just in: The guy behind the 22-inch BMX community will soon be selling parts as well.

You can see his store here.

I miss my BMX days. As far as the best BMX video.... Has to be Props Road Fools #1, for this one simple reason..

Road fools...man, that brings me back. Good times

Aaaaaaaaaah! I was grousing about my inability to get a copy of Rad, and my friend sent me this link. Soon I will be reminded of just how terrible this movie is, and I will love every minute.

As a refresher: a moment from Rad

I'm WAY behind on Family Guy, but they played "Thunder In Your Heart" on an episode from last year and I was like "that's from RAD, isn't it?!" Shazam proved me right.

In reply to Ransom:

Wow, I forgot just how bad that was! I will definitely be watching it this weekend.

I loved the Road Fools series. I was subscribed to Props Video Magazine back in the day. It was great.

I still have a couple boxes of them on VHS in the basement. If only I had a working VCR to play them.
