Augie Simoncini BMX Profile

Are you ready to dive into the best Augie Simoncini profile and BMX videos?

If you’re into unique street riding, you’re in for a wild ride.

Right off the bat, let’s talk about the “street superman” – because, seriously, that’s RIDICULOUS.

And doing it down a set of stairs? Even crazier.

But that’s just Augie.

Fun fact: Augie wasn’t always this passionate about street riding.

Back in the day, he spent a lot of time riding skateparks, and he was tight with Scotty Cranmer when they both spent time at Incline Skatepark.

But here’s the twist – his dad, a firefighter, wanted him to play baseball instead. And when Augie got in trouble? His dad wouldn’t ground him.

He’d take his bike away.

The. Worst.

Still, whenever he could, Augie would ride his BMX – often in full baseball gear – to the course, the parks, anywhere he could.

Later, he became super close friends with Garrett Reynolds (from the Incline days). But get this – Augie actually spent more time with Garrett’s dad than Garrett himself.

Sadly, Garrett’s dad passed away early in their lives, but his impact on Augie and the crew was huge.

Another fun fact: Augie and Garrett pretty much started Deadline together – then they linked up with Ty Morrow, and things took off from there.

Born and raised in Staten Island, NY, Augie started riding at 12 years old, shredding local ramps.

One of his first sponsors? Felt Bicycles, who even flew him out to Germany for a contest (which, by the way, ended with him getting kicked out of Germany – more on that in the video interview below).

Now, hit play and enjoy some of Augie Simoncini’s finest clips.

Augie sums it up perfectly: “BMX is my way of not growing up.”

Augie in Deadline DVD


Augie’s Deadline DVD part is an absolute must-see if you are down to see some raw street riding.

If, by any chance, you have not seen this dude shred, start the journey to getting to know Augie with this exact section.

There is a ton of good stuff in here. I particularly like all the over toothpicks down pretty serious sets of stairs.

Also, the over icepick is mind-bending (the crash is even crazier). Of course, you will also see many of Augie’s signature superman moves in here.

They told me you do this trick over dirt or a box jump, not on the street – oh well.

Augie’ video bike check (2019)


Here, you get a quick look at Augie’s Fiend BMX and Animal Bikes bike build.

Unfortunately, he does not go into details about some parts, but if you are in the BMX scene for a while, you can guess the products easily.

You can see his signature Fiend frame, Animal BMX forks, Jevelin hubs, Foursome 4-pc BMX bars, Inverse stem, Akimbo cranks, GLH BMX tires, and the list goes on.

I do not know if his signature BMX street frame from Fiend is ever coming back, but if it does, make sure you grab it, as it may not last long.

Stranger “No Hype” section


This and the previous part are the best from Augie Simoncini himself. At least, in my opinion. I do not care how old this stuff is; it is golden.

Some really heavy clips will pump everyone up; it is impossible to be otherwise.

With that in mind, I would highly advise you to watch and rewatch it a couple of times, just to understand how powerful Augie’s riding is.

There is little to no technical stuff in here, just pure street rail bangers that would make many think twice about whether even to give it thought.

No one even thinks about doing that stuff! But not for Augie; he goes all-in, producing a killer Stranger part for “No Hype.”

Even though this is several years old, it can still give you a better idea of how Augie’s ride looks.

Sure, he is not riding this same setup anymore, but if you ever want to be like Augie, this is a start.

A Stranger and Animal Bikes setup, for the most part, heck, even Augie does not remember all the products that he rocks in here.

For instance, who even gives a damn about what BMX headset is that, for as long as the bar spins, we are all good.

Short but sweet for Tip Plus


Even one minute of shredding from Augie Simoncini is enough to get you excited to go grind rails.

The hop over toothpick, crooked grind on a flat rail and superman to fakie is a fire line.

Augie on Unclicked podcast


If you would like to get even more familiar with Augie, you better not miss his nearly one-and-a-half-hour-long Unclicked podcast.

There is a lot of facts that you may never knew about Simoncini that you will get out of this.

They chat about the loss of hearing in his right ear, growing up with Garrett Reynolds and Scotty Cranmer, Ride BMX photo, Gabe Brooks, his dad, and his approach to riding bikes.

In between, all these other goodies will make you feel like you know Augie for a very long time.

Augie’s TCU interview


Okay, let me be 100% honest with you here. I did not watch the entire almost one hour and twenty minutes long video interview, but the majority of it.

Enough to get familiar with Augie, who he is, his connection with Stranger and all these other insights.

That said, if you would really like to know how real Augie is, you better watch this one from start to finish. He even talks about his relationship with superman.

He learned it and brought it to the streets because he couldn’t do a bunnyhop tailwhip. That’s it! I guess if you cannot do a hop whip, you do a superman instead.

What’s Augie’s story


If I did not watch the last one in great detail, I sure did this one.

I think the one above and this particular 5050 Skatepark interview with Augie are more than enough to learn a whole bunch more about Augie than “just” the insane street riding that he does.

He talks about the Incline skatepark days, how he met Garrett Reynolds, how he got into BMX, his wild Germany experience and a ton more.

I always enjoy watching Augie just talk and share wicked stories.
