Kyle Bennet on the ground, completely jacked at the Beijing Olympics.

Bennet eventually gets up and rides the rest of the track with a separated shoulder. Under Olympic rules, if you receive first aid on the course you are not allowed to continue racing. But because Kyle rode under his own power and completed the course, he will be allowed to race in the finals and compete for a medal. Of course, racing with a separated shoulder put back in place is not the most comfortable thing to do.


BMX in the Beijing Olympics – Mark Lewman on the spot for Nemo


Add ons by Plain T

Accessories are often thought of as small add ons, such as watches, scarfs, shades, or jewelry. However accessorizing becomes much more effective when the object is bigger than yourself. With the constant up-surge of action sports, and BMX’s debut in this summer’s olympics what could look more smart than you on your 1984 GT Pro Performer Eddie Fiola Winterland Park Edition going for a quick coffee? What ever your object of choice may be, make it fitting of you and it will be a sure hit, oh ya… extra points if you take your cumbersome item to a crowded house party and carry it around all night!

I grabbed the Canon G9 and headed to Brooklyn Projects opening and launch of the Nemo produced book FREESTYLIN’. Nike SB’s, John Martin asked Nemo creative director Mark Lewman if he could do anything for BMX what would he do. Lewman brought the old band together from the Freestylin’ days and put together an amazing historical outline of the pioneering days of freestyle BMX. Spike Jones and Andy Jenkins collaborated in their original roles and put together the book.

BMX racing will debut in China at the Olympics next month and Nike SB has been doing promotions to bring focus to the new event. Michael Lau designed special limited edition Blazers for the promotion and if you were at the party in LA the he also design two special edition toys and a show box that is so unique and original!


NIKE 6.0 Lightning Bolts aka NEMO in China

In preparation for the Olympics in China, Nike 6.0 hosted the “Lightning Bolts” BMX Exhibition in Beijing. The event brought BMXing’s legends out to play. 6.0 riders put on a live demo and legends customized number plates for the art show. 

Nemo’s very own Mark Lewman, an OG of BMX’s Freestylin Magazine, was one of the brains behind the event. He has been hard at work creating an anniversary edition of Freestylin (that will have a very special limited release) and designing his very own number plate. YEAH Lew!
