The producers of Heroes of Dirt brought together a core team of film industry pros and legendary BMX riders and jump builders to create perhaps the raddest movie in a generation.

CAST

 

Phin, our lead actor is played by Joel Moody, an Austin native who currently resides in Los Angeles CA.  He was a sponsored rider, rode in the Warped Tour and performs most of his own stunts in the film.

Bill Allen ("Cru Jones" in Rad, a Sony Pictures classic 1986 movie about BMX racing) is playing Phin's father. Our other cast includes up-and-coming talented actors, most of whom reside in the Lehigh Valley, Philadelphia and New York region.

Riders appearing include Cattywoods Trails locals like Dave King, Sam Dorward and Devin Albino. Others include Van Homan, Brian Foster, Pat "Big Daddy" Laughlin, Alex Landeros, Anthony Napolitan, the Animal Team - as well as a bunch of pros from around the world.
