Well in a few hours I’ll (Coalition) be making my way to Gatwick Airport with Boiski (Animal), George Marshall (Ride UK) & Safe Nath (Mutiny) to get on a plane headed for Madrid. I’ll be posting some updates from our little excursion over the next week so be sure to pop back and see how we are getting on…
Seeing as Ben has now been added to the FFWD family, I thought it would be a decent idea to find out a little more about him…
Name: Ben Green
Age: 23
Location: South London
I have been riding for: 12 years (more…)
This is exciting news! Ben is the second of the two UK videographers, whos work I have long admired, to be added to Fast Forward.
Ben has already earned himself a respectable and recognisable name in the BMX industry, both behind, and infront of the camera.
Ben’s a good, down to earth guy, always provides an overwhelming amount of support to his friends, makes the most of every opportunity in life, and, as displayed in his work, is always putting 100% into what he does.
I’m really excited to have Ben involved, and of things to come, for both the site, and himself.
Watch this space for more to come from Ben, take a look at his profile in the ‘about’ section and get to know him a little, I’ll be asking a few questions in the next day or two so you can find out more, for now, check out below this short film he made to kick things off, documenting life through a bmxers eyes in London, then take a look at what a day with ben green is like, and his recent trip to NY.
2009 UNSEEN FOOTAGE from Mike King on Vimeo.
Well, here it is, Pretty much all the left over footage I have from September to now, a shit load of clips left over form the ‘Mark Webb and Alex Coleborn Vital video’ and clips I only just got to work on my computer from my JVC HD-7 which I ended up selling. Aswell as a few XM1 and VX2100 clips floating around too.
Song: Phoenix – 1901 (as if you didn’t already know!)

You may remember this edit from a while ago. Robin Fenlon spent a day with tweedle-dee and tweedle-dum and despite the rain, came out with this really arty edit that I think made for a great watch, turns out I’m not the only one that thinks so.
Defgrip just posted it up, and if Harrison Boyce thinks it ‘could be one of his favourite edits of the year’, you know its worth re-watching..
following bruzas last one, up next on the ‘a day with’ series is s&ms ben green and uniteds dan boiski.
evidently, the weather was against them, but this video truly shows what ‘a day with’ someone is meant to be, not a bunch of different spots cut together, things dont always go perfectly, but theres nothing you can do about the weather.
check out this dope video courtesy of robin fenlon.
Two Blocks from Mike King on Vimeo.
Ben Green and Dan Boiski were given a small area to show off some stuff at a show, two blocks was all they needed to get a few solid clips.
