The Birth of the BMX Freestyle Movement - Book 2

Anyone else ordered a copy?

Have you received it?

Ordered mine last Tuesday and was wondering roughly how long it'll take to arrive. Looks really good, I can't wait to get my hands on it!  :)

Does that mean everyone’s received their stuff from the last edition then?

Not sure I like the sound of that!  :(

I knew there had been problems with the special Book 1 packs that included extras, but I didn't know if that extended to just the book.

I am told a supply are on their way to the UK, so hopefully it'll turn up soon.

I chased mine and had this message through FB this morning....
When I was born, the world was a far simpler place.
It was all just cops and robbers.
And BMX.

Will chase my order up today.

Well the good news is that the books have reached the UK. The bad news is that I haven't received mine yet! :(

The guys at Dead Sailor in Cornwall now have them in stock. Wish I'd thought to check that a UK dealer would be stocking them.  "nono"

I messaged Dom and am assured mine should arrive imminently! (fingers crossed)

It’s here. I came home on Friday to find a nice weighty parcel waiting on the kitchen table for me.  :D

I have to say it was everything I was hoping for and perhaps a bit more. The sheer amount of detail and the number and quality of pictures is amazing. I think the pictures of mid seventies riders such as Jeff Watson ripping empty swimming pools and skateparks on loop tail Redlines are worth the book price alone. Can’t wait to get to the Dirt Bros section (the reason I bought the book).

 It is easily the most expensive book I have ever bought, but I’d say it's worth it. Highly recommended!

I know a few RAD members haven’t had such good experiences in dealing with Dom, but for my part I didn’t really have any trouble. I didn’t expect a quick delivery, and thought a wait of just over a month wasn’t too bad. I fired off several messages to Dom regarding the delivery and he always replied promptly.

Both Dead Sailor and Volt BMX are selling this book, so if you’d rather not order directly I’m sure they’d be able to help you out.

I already have the first 2 books, so don’t really need a ‘remix’ of the first one.
The way the people who’d forked out for the special collectors’ packs were treated last time has put me off in any case.
