The video is composed of footage Jeff wasn’t using for any long-term projects although he has been heavily involved in shooting for the DG’s upcoming third DVD release, ‘Rerouting’. Jeff might not be a resident of Pennsylvania, but his routine visits and affiliation with many of the crews in the state have kept our eyes on him for years. Make sure you keep yours peeled for more from Jeff in DNS2 and Rerouting, coming soon.

Joe Niranonta is the definition of the term, working-class BMX rider, juggling a full-time job working in boiler rooms in New Jersey while maintaining his status as an AM rider for Animal and Kink Bikes after hours. In those after hours, Joe can usually be found in the streets of Philadelphia pushing his dreams forward one pedal at a time.
Joe is from Levittown, Pennsylvania and is the oldest of three brothers. All of which ride BMX. For the Niranontas, BMX has become a family trait. One that started with their late father, Paitool, and has transcended through four generations of the family name. On the verge of completing filming for the highly anticipated ‘Chocolate Truck Two’ video, we spoke with Joe about the upcoming video, the launch of the Niranonta brand, how it all started and much more. You can read the full interview, after the jump.
