A product of his environment, Nigel Sylvester explains how he got into BMX, why he chose to ride street. Life + Times takes him back to the place he grew up at and from there he took it to the world and used it as his canvas to paint his picture.
Official description: Over the course of his still-thriving career, Pro BMX rider Nigel Sylvester has garnered sponsorships from the likes of Nike, Gatorade, Mirraco, Casio G-Schock and Animal. Unlike most NYC-bred action sports talents, it wasn’t the pavements of Manhattan that shaped Sylvester’s street style, but rather his home borough of Queens—primarily the neighborhoods of Brookville, Laurelton, and Rosedale. Life + Times follows him on a ride through his old stomping grounds.
