In issue 164 we did a full interview with Phil Demattia who rides for DUB BMX, Kink Bike Co and eclat. Not only did he have a 12 page article to himself, he also scored the front cover, doing that crazy Over-Levitator grind in the soaking wet. Phil also features in our latest issue (165) – in the Kink UK trip article “Road To Nowhere”. Ride UK Photographer/Editor-at-Large, @Nathanbeddows, shot the photos for Phil’s interview and like always you tend to shoot more than you need… Here are a bunch of photos which didn’t quite make the final cut, plus some highlights from the interview. Also, in case you missed Phil’s Welcome To Kink edit, filmed by Will Evans, make sure you check that out here: ‘Phil Demattia Welcome To Kink’ Enjoy!
