I always keep myself from geeking out on bmx with you. Follow your kid on instagram and he's straight up amazing. I was riding with Kevin Peraza the other day at a local park. He's as nice as he is insane on a bike also.

Thanks Seth. Kevin and his entire family are awesome folk, been knowing them since Broc and Kevin were competing as amateurs at the Dew Free Flow Tours. Believe it or not Broc used to compete in Park until he kissed the floor at Toronto Jam and donated some teeth to Canada.

As someone who can’t ride street to save their life, that was mind blowing! It’s crazy to me how he can just casually throw a bar combo on prettying much anything.

Thanks guys.! Funny someone mentions fear as a parent. Roof drop no problem, he got those all day. The ender stuff is what gets me. Rail hop to gap to target landing to off is the shit that makes me nervous. He had a cover shot in Long Beach that is frightening to look at in person. Even though I want to be around everytime he is riding, sometimes I am glad I am not.

He’s always had a dirt bike in front of him since he was 2 years old. Rode a little as a kid and at around 11 ish chose to sell his RM80 to purchase a better bmx bike and has been at it ever since. Only recently, last few years, he has saddled up on a MX bike again and straight away is not too shabby.

JM845. Funny you mention casually throw a bar. For years he would get mad at me because he would show me a trick he did and I would say can you bar out? Seems like he took that to heart. Lol.

Thanks again!

Your son and Chad Kerley "I'm gonna do this insane tech combo and yes I'm also going to spin the bars for good measure (like it's nothing)".

I brought up fear from a parental standpoint, Watching the fails is hard. Skateboarding is my sons love. Great sport but he’s only 30 and has had both knees rebuilt, (torn meniscus and acl’s) broken ankle, knocked out teeth, he’s always got a strawberry somewhere, bruises, tweaked ankles and wrists are the norm. When I was reading your post and watching the video it reminded me of the picture he sent me from last Saturday, “I rolled in and Ollie’d onto the landing at the the bottom of the first stairs, then had to immediately ollie down the 6 stair you can’t see in the pic” I was like holy fuck son what if you went off the left side ? “It was pretty wide I wasn’t worried about that, it was weird cause it was stucco and not smooth”… like you said maybe there’s some shit we don’t need to see 😁 Congrats again, your sons bike skills are impressive ! 👍

First off, way cool! Badass kid forsure.

Honest question, why do so many street bmx guys not wear a helmet? I have no problem with it as it's their choice, but seems like a logical thing to put on when doing that kind of riding. Especially if it's someone's career and a head injury could end it. Brain buckets are pretty good these days and don't really inhibit movement.

MTB and moto guys you rarely, if ever, see without a helmet when pushing the limits. Then you have bmx guys doing just as crazy of stuff and it seems only a few have them on?

Is it just a cultural thing? Or a cool factor? Just find it interesting how not having a helmet on would get you flamed pretty hard in other similar sports, but is seen as the opposite in Street BMX. Don't think I've ever seen Brad Simms wear a helmet, but he did a crossover MTB video and he put a helmet on?

Heck yeah Broc , I would be proud too! Your boy has some great skills. Those rail slides he does are cool as heck. When I was young and doing the BMX thing , that kinda stuff was just kind of getting started. I played around in the half pipes , but wasn't all that good , but my little brother was. On a track I'd smoke him......doing this kinda stuff , along with half pipe , he embarrassed me. Anyways.....very cool vid.

@prozach. It’s a cultural thing that came from the cool factor I guess. I tried and tried to get him to wear it always but it didn’t stick but I also find it interesting when he chooses to put it on. He very very rarely wears it on street, but will always wear it riding park and most dirt jumps. Reason was early on in street that they weren’t going fast or high but as seen that’s not true for the most part. Yeah funny that he never, even to putt around, on his dirt bike, ever not uses his helmet. Weird!

@Jeffro. Thanks! BTW would you happen to know a guy named Jeff Erickson? Seems like I may have met you back in 2001 visiting Jeff and attending the Washougal National.
