Tomorrow I fly out to Glasgow, Scotland for the UCI Worlds. Francois just dropped a new episode of the Hang 5 Podcast featuring Varo Hernandez from Madrid, Spain for us all digest…. Good stuff Francois and Varo!

“Growing up in Madrid, our guest today started his BMX journey hustling in the streets of the Spanish capital with his crew of misfits. He soon discovered his love for flatland.
Over the next decade or so, he started to compete, moved to Abu Dhabi to do shows, was one of the first riders on the Martti Kuoppa program, became a product tester for WTP, opened a BMX flatland school in Madrid and got a ride on the Fly bikes program with the aim on working on a flatland specific line. this is the story of Varo Hernandez.”

Francois Debroux introduces Episode 32 of the hang 5 Podcast….

“For this episode I sat down with smooth rolling Sietse Van Berkel from Holland.
He has been in the game for 20 years and slowly but surely cemented his place among the elite with a win at Master of Creativity in 2018 and now being invited in events such as RedBull Circle of Balance and the Japan X Games. Lots of insights into his philosophy and vision for our artform.
PS – due to some unfortunate technical issues, the sound might be low at times, I recommend you use headphones for listening to this episode.”
