Was looking at my shop Mr. B’s today and saw a fight between a few gangs of dust bunnies, couple spiders, and some long millipede thing. So…spring cleaning started. Pretty sure I could have taken all the dust and hair and somehow made a whole t-shirt out of it. Did you know that back in the day they wore shirts made of hair? Believe that. How fun would that be wearing a hair shirt, as long as its not the bad hair if you know what I mean. War Party to start this clean post off with Coplon and good friend Sass fingers…check it. BMX Plus gave me 2 pages a month to do whatever I want. Coplon is on fire this week. Mat Olson video from Mexico city and his best trick win. Florida Flatlanders at it again. Thomas Noyer winning battle of the nations then spinning and smooth crazy for his individual run at Bike Days in Switzerland. Closson and Markit Zero friends section. Few flyers for upcoming events like BYOB and Flatland Citrus Jam. Hit up them instavids, they did not let down this week. Stay clean, check every nook and crack. Bring on this heat. -Chad D
Mark Mulville + Matt Coplon: War Party.
Both Mark and I have been on board with Profile for over 15 years at this point.
We work together. Mark handles all of our social media, and I handle the team and much of the shop’s day to day sales duties.
We travel together.
We ride a lot together off the clock.
And we somehow manage to stay close friends after being in close proximity for a good portion of each day.
These clips were filmed over the past 6 months. Most of it after work: each of us taking turns behind the camera. And a good portion of it on solo sessions with a tri-pod.
To good friends and good times.
It’s been a hell of a run, here’s to another 15.
Enjoy.
Subsequent filming by Grant Castelluzzo, Dan Orroyo, Travis Reavis, and Steve Caro.
Song: “War Party” by Floor.

“Tampa is slowly becoming the 30+ bmx retirement community. After 2-1/2 hours of broken chain grief, I was saved by @papi__dan @andrewsd and was able to salvage the session. I had to dodge a tree and deal with a seriously crappy run up to handle this over and back thread the needle 50/50.” Thanks to @papi__dan for the shutter snap. ?#?bmx? ?#?decobmx?@decobmx ?#?profileracing? @profile_racing @etniesbmx ?#?etniesbmx??#?folklorebrand? @f0lklore ALSO a medley of snapback hats as seen on Matt are available here http://decobmx.bigcartel.com/product/soft-goods
BMX Style Ecatepec 2015 with Mat Olson winning best trick in Mexico
Love that Mat Olson won best trick and hair banded the hell out of the event right at the end…holla.
The Florida Flatlanders keep it going on the weekends. Another place with permission… this time we all were not worried of the 94 degree weather with a full covered area that provided shade and a cool breeze. Another bonus were power outlets and water fountain which I grew up calling bubblers. This is a rope a roni hop to the front pegs and half lash out.
