I have many conversations with riders across the globe about video parts, and the importance of them. Last year I had a conversation with Viki Gomez in Riyad about this subject, and how video parts help shape our scene, more recently throughout the past years that has died off with the rise of social media.
This conversation struck a chord with Viki, which I didn’t know about about until Rise 7 arrived in my inbox, Viki’s riding is of course off the hook, as he more currently pushes what is possible on the back wheel with signature Viki Gomez style and finesse that comes from years and years in the trenches, let’s bring the flatland culture back everyone!
Let’s talk more in-depth on Viki’s riding in the comments sectio, go watch the video and get out riding, document your clips, make an edit, push yourself & surprise yourself,
Viki had this to say:
“This is simply hardcore riding.
Most of the ideas in this video weren’t planned, hey came together in the moment. That’s what I love most about riding: letting FREESTYLE happen naturally.
Over the past months, I’ve put a strong focus on riding on the back wheel. That simple decision opened up more possibilities than I ever expected. Sometimes less really is more.
Nothing fancy. Nothing fashionable. Just the reality of everyday sessions, dedication, frustration, progression, and the motivation to keep pushing.
This is what real Flatland means to me.
Let’s keep riding. Let’s keep creating.”
