You can buy the Rad 4k Blu-ray disc now on Amazon. amzn.to/3vrHPYK
Eddie, Bart Conner, Bill Allen, Martin Aparijo, and other stars and players of the film gathered together with me to record an audio track that works as a companion to watching Rad. These guys tell the most amazing and sometimes hilarious stories about the making of this quintessential 1980s coming-of-age BMX film. It will change the way you enjoy the movie forever.
You can read more at www.cdbaby.com/... and you can buy it there or through iTunes itunes.apple.c....
Eddie also makes his own line of amazing bikes, the EF Proformer. You can see them at www.eddiefiola.co/ . I'm proud to say I am the owner of legendary number 43, out of only 250 made.

Eddie Fiola maaaan, this dude was our BMX Hero, legend!!! Thank you!
My brothers and I watched RAD over and over, one of my favorite movies when I was kid. Still enjoy it as an adult and still love bicycles.
When there's thunder in your heart, every move is like lightning...
I was 10 when I saw Rad in the theater. After that the only thing I wanted in life was my own BMX bike. My parents got me one for Xmas that year. They thought it was strange their 10 year old daughter wanted a red BMX bike lol.
send me an angel....
You go girl !
I've been watching this movie over and over since I was a kid. Best movie ever.
I’m so glad I grew up in the late 70’s and early 80’s. Eddie and the GT team along with the RAD movie made bmx so much better.
Eddie, Martin, and Mr. Wilkerson...... My idols
I live in Canada and the weather pattern Eddie referred to is called a Chinook. The movie was filmed in and around Calgary Alberta. Alberta is known for Chinook weather. Glad Eddie and the rest of the cast got to enjoy it. Haha
This should be on the bonus features for an official RAD DVD!
yes!
It is on the Vinegar Syndrome limited edition Blu-ray, or separately on iTunes!
The movie was also big in video stores in Thailand too. It was totally resonated internationally. It surely has some impact to my life and many of my friends.
I watched Rad everyday for years. Still have the VHS copy at my parents house. I was obsessed.
Much respect to you Eddie, Martin, Denis, RL and others, God bless you all for a remarkable ride in history with setting the stage for where we are today in bmx freestyle.
True pioneer of the sport and always a class act!
He still looks young. I loved Rad as a kid
IM 52 NOW & STILL RIDING . Sooo, glad to grow up in that arena. 80's ROCKED !! HUNTINGTON BEACH, PIPELINE , MAN . STILL HAVE MY PIPELINE MEMBERSHIP CARD , STILL LOOKS BRAND NEW , WAS 12 YRS. OLD !!! BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE !!

And one of the nicest and most generous people I know.

We did a whole commentary that’s available on the limited edition Blu-ray and separately on iTunes.
My brother and I saw this movie at a friends house when I was 8. We then proceeded to attempt most of the tricks in the movie. It didn’t go well but it was still fun😂
Thanks for making a kids dream watching this movie.. a classic of all time woke up every day and jumped on my bike when I was a kid 15 years later still riding my bmx still sits in my room it’s the first thing I see in the am and the last thing I see in the pm .. nothing like having your own freedom...

My number 2 favorite rider of all time, King Of The Skateparks, LIFETIME Team Member of GT Bicycles "MY MAN" Eddie Fiola...
You were my idol as a teenager. I remember this kid wanted my Steve Caballero board and wanted to trade me for his GT Perforner, so I did lol! After seeing the movie, my favorite trick was a boomerang (that's what they called it in Tennessee anyways. Was cool to land that trick like after 30 attempts or so lol!
The 80’s was a good time.
