Review: “Natural Born Haters” DVD

Jesse Romano – Tailwhip

DNS BMX is a group of friends from Eastern Long Island and New York. The crew includes Mike Mann, Chris Dowd, Kevin Valot, Brian Shane, Brian “Skoopz” Scott, Justin Crofton, Jesse Romano and Jeff Purdy.

The group released a trailer for their first DVD a few weeks ago and shortly after the videos premiere Jeff Purdy was kind enough to send us through a copy to check out. Since I had some free time I figured I would pop in the DVD and give it a watch. You can read the full review for the DNX BMX “Natural Born Haters” DVD after the jump.
