Giants of Dirt - Part 2

Jan 11, 2011
by Unit Clothing  
Dane Searls has proven himself as one of the world's best big dirt jump riders. In his quest to push himself and BMX dirt jumping further, Dane has teamed up with Unit Clothing to develop the Giants Of Dirt project.

Check out part 2 as the riding is insane, and the latest session was all filmed out a chopper.The construction and first ride took place in August, at Matt Schubring's Boonah property, located in Australia. The set up was totally untested, and Dane took a massive slam in his attempt to clear the whole set-up. He walked away and immediately began planning another attempt.

After months of bad weather, Dane headed back out to the massive jumps, and worked along side Matt Schubring to bring the jumps up to standard and ready to ride. Part 2 of the Giants Of Dirt project documents Dane's next big attempt!

 You have got to wonder if action sports will ever find a point at which progression stops. This is insane. A few years ago, people were amazed by seasons, the same size jumps on a dh bike. And now its on a bmx.

 Hey Brett, we never thought the weather was going to turn so bad, so we were waiting for another chance to film more for Part 2. But it has become evident that this weather is slowing up. 75% of the state has been declared a natural disaster zone right now.
