Gary Young and the rest of the Van’s team seek out some spots in the Canary Islands.

It was a tough task but we gathered up all of our favorite clips from every ODSY Vision this year and mixed it all into one action packed edit. As an added bonus, we even threw in a few fresh clips we had been saving.

Thanks to all of our riders and guest filmers/editors for helping make this video series one of the best. It’s been a great year and if this recap wasn’t enough, hit up ODSYVISION.com to get full platter.

Gary Young‘s featured in the latest Van’s Video Vault and not only is he beyond clicked in a bunch of these clips, he also does multiple ET’s in one 360. Brought to you by Vital BMX.

The San Diego crew, including Gary Young, Hoang Tran, Kyle Hart and the artist formerly known as “Dirt Ron,” drove out to Slab City to catch a sunrise session before the weirdos woke up. Come to find out, we were the fist-bumping weirdos.

Here’s the Baltic Triangle video Sunday premiered earlier this week on their Facebook page. For added radness, they put together a wallpaper of Gary Young tire sliding a roof!

Gary Young and Jim Cielencki took a trip to the Baltic triangle this year. Above are some shots from Sunday that Gary and Andrew Brady took during their adventure. The video isn’t 100% public yet but if you click over to their Facebook page, you can watch it now and get a sneak peek!

Once upon a time in New Mexico, a handful of dudes in a giant van drove and flew thousands of miles in search of the perfect rail. With Jeff Z as the trusty tour guide, they discovered plenty of setups in a little sleepy town found in the state’s northern mountains. Justin Simpson, Gary Young, Sean Sexton and George Boyd were all aboard for the mission. Sean had the misfortune of piercing a giant hole in his knee within what was probably only 15 minutes of getting out of the van so he’s a little MIA in this video. Fortunately, our TM and all around shredder Jim Bauer was on hand to score some extra clips and annihilate the longest rail in sight. This is our latest ODSY Vision. Enjoy.

Make sure to pick up a copy of the latest Ride BMX to see even more photos and coverage.

Defgrip has a disposed gallery up as well that’s filled with behind the scene shots that Jim Bauer took.

Gary Young scores the cover of the latest Ride BMX with a late night roof gap to L-rail. It’ll be hitting the newsstands soon so make sure to pick one up. Our rail trip to Los Almos, New Mexico with Sean Sexton, Gary Young, George Boyd, Justin Simpson and Jim Bauer is featured in it.

Also, as an added bonus from our team, Tom Dugan fires out reader questions regarding everything from drinking Dr. Pepper to riding naked.

One of the highlights during our So. California to So. Oregon trip was taking a well deserved pit stop over at Lakehead-Lakeshore, located in the mountains of Northern California. With lush vegetation providing plenty of shade and water temperature comparable to a heated pool, it was a prime spot and the perfect escape from the ball-sweating summer heat. To top it off, we found a rope swing nestled atop a little drop into the lake.

Filmed during Travel Log – Southern California to Southern Oregon.

UPDATE: 8/29: Official video is now up!
UPDATE 8/24: Van’s has a video up now, too!

When Gary isn’t throwing tables 8 feet into the air or winning contests overseas, he can sometimes be found doing tech jibs. Click the photo to download this new wallpaper from Ride BMX!

The big news from this weekend is Gary Young took home 1st place at this year’s Simpel Summer Session. This quote from Rooftop pretty much sums it up:

Ya @GaryBYoung, I could watch you ride all day. In a sport that has become a routine and a carbon copy factory… you inspire! #congratsbro

- @MikeEscamilla

Congratulations Gary! Another highlight of the contest was Dugan blasting this 180 transfer. Keep your eyes peeled for contest footage!

In related news, Gary and Jim C will be staying across the pond these next few days and just got done floating around the Baltic Sea. Sounds rough.

This month’s ODSY Vision is coming a little late but it’s a hefty one. We gathered up our favorite San Diego crew (Gary Young, Tom Perry, Dirt Ron, Kyle Hart & Hoang Tran) and told them to get in the Van. We then drove north and proceeded to hit up the multitude of concrete parks along the way, making new friends here and there and throwing tabes just about everywhere.

Click through the flipbook above for photos from Park and then hit up the videos below for a recap of the whole thing.
