The Yea have released their new fall line of soft goods through their website. The fall line includes several new shirt designs, hats, vinyl decals, magnets, lighters and even patches. All of the new products are available for purchase now with the exception of the “Olive Gas Caps” which sold-out during the presale. The release of the fall line of goods is the culmination of over a year of hard work by Matt Smith which involved designing, sourcing materials, printing and sewing all of the goods himself.
The Yea have also dropped a new video to accompany the release of the fall line which includes riding from Angus Tuttle, Marc Sechrist, Matt Smith, and Ryan Muschlitz with filming / editing by Matt Smith and additional filming provided by Marc Sechrist, Angus Tuttle, Pat Quinn, and Liane Battista.
A little over a year in the making, The Yea have revamped their website and are having a Back To School Pre-Order on their upcoming fall line. The Yea’s fall line of goods includes four new shirt designs, hats, patches, magnets and even lighters. A thirty second commercial spot for the fall line has also been uploaded which goes along with the Back To School theme. Make sure you check out all the new new from The Yea and don’t forget, O’Doyle Rules!

“I can be bit of a show off but every time I see a baddie I gotta pop sum nice.”
1. He attempted to crank arm a rail with no chain.
Seen at 1:22 in the extras.
2. The song was changed a week before upload.
We originally were going to use No Heart by 21 Savage but a week before the video was ready the track got used.
3. He broke his stem mid sesh & swapped it and kept riding unaffected.
He snapped his stem and went to a totally different top load stem and kept riding no problem.
4. He sang R Kelly through the handi rail hop.
Seen at :48 in the extras.
5. He filmed his banger with my phone in his pocket blaring music.
Feeling anxious he asked me for my phone so he could get hype to try the 3. For some reason I gave him my phone without thinking twice. You can hear the music playing from it at 2:00 in the extras.
First the obvious, Name, age, and where are you from / now living?
Joshua Hymans, 21, born and raised in Allentown, PA now living in Lebanon, PA.
Earliest BMX memory?
Earliest BMX memory was when I was with two childhood friends, my brother and a old head named Mark lol shout out Mark but he took us on a ride from Southside of Allentown up into Bethlehem to hit some trails (we all ate shit that day) and we saw some dudes shredding under a bridge. I remember this one dude had wild foot plants, so that was pretty much my first time seeing real tricks done on a bike.
Where does your drive to progress come from?
My drive to progress is just to hang wit the big boys nothing more nothing less.
How long have you been riding bikes?
Been riding BMX since August of 2012 so about 4 years.
Ever impress a girl with a trick?
Do I impress females with tricks? Hell yeah! I can be bit of a show off but every time I see a baddie I gotta pop sum nice.
What are some of your influences?
Some influences definitely my brother. He’s my biggest fan and he keeps it real with what I love and what I do so shout out BIGBRO!!! Influenced by other riders? Ehh, not really, but if I see something I like I may try to add it to my bag of tricks with a touch of my “style”.

As we approach the end of the year, it’s time once again to kick off our series of year end posts. Every year, we publish a long list of videos on this site. In the fast paced environment that is the internet they are here one minute and archived the next. But before we close the door on 2016, it’s time to take a look back at some of the videos that we felt made the strongest impression on our viewers and the scene as a whole. The list is in no particular order and is not based off of any web statistics or analytics. With that in mind, we invite you to sit back, re-watch and enjoy.
