Detailed Account of Hobie Doan (2025)
Ready to dive into the legendary Hobie Doan's** BMX experience? I am!
This Oregon-born ripper is a streets-taming beast, and as a fellow BMX aficionado, I can't get enough of his shredding skills. From lightning-fast speeds and high-octane hops to insane tech moves and elevated rail maneuvers, Hobie's got it all. But what truly sets him apart? His unmatched love for rail grinding.
From flat rails to handrails, if it's a rail, he's on it. And his rail rides? Nothing short of mind-blowing. If heavy street riding's your thing, consider yourself covered.
Based in Portland, this twenty-something prodigy rides for several renowned brands, including Primo BMX, Good BMX, and Etnies (fancy some new BMX shoes?). He's also backed by DUB, Lifestyle Farms, and Plants Basically. Interestingly enough, Plants Basically is a brand by JJ Palmere.
Without further ado, let's jump right into some of the hottest moves from the man himself, HD.

Over a month on the road, Hobie and Garett McKenzie hit the streets of Minnesota and Wisconsin, leaving us with a masterpiece of street shredding and urban exploration. If you're into non-linear, creative video editing, this one's got you covered. However, if you're all about burly rail tricks, brace yourself for some of Hobie's signature moves, including a roof hop, a 270, and a drop that's as fire as his hair.
Drop the Pin
Broken rail? No biggie for this stuntking freestyler. Despite the obstacle, Hobie delivers an incredible clip that'll put a smile on your face and leave you eager to hit the streets. The quick tire slide 180 was a highlight, but let's face it - everything he touches turns to gold.
E-Fise Glasgow X Dig 2022
No matter how casual Hobie makes it look, everything he does is damn difficult. My personal favorite? The long opposite icepick grind to manual to regular icepick grind to hard 180 out on the legendary spot. His last pegs over were also on point. The raw version of this clip (E-Fise Glasgow X Dig 2022 - RAW) is just as good, if not better, for BMX purists like myself.
