On April 25–26, we celebrated nine years of Hungary’s only indoor BMX Flatland school—and the largest venue of its kind in Europe. To mark the occasion, we hosted an international open contest featuring 11 riders from abroad, alongside Sport Zone members and riders from across the country.
Some guests arrived early, turning the entire week into a series of great sessions. Many of them spent time riding with our younger riders, which proved to be an inspiring experience for everyone involved. From the start, the atmosphere was something special.
The whole weekend stood out for its relaxed, positive vibe. There was no typical contest pressure—just high-level riding, strong community spirit, and a shared passion for flatland. On Saturday evening, we gathered for dinner at Sport Zone while the jam continued, with even the judges joining in. It felt like we’ve reached a turning point, highlighting the need for more camp- and jam-style events in the future. This was easily our best event so far—more like a flatland camp than a traditional contest—and something we will definitely build on next year.
Veronika Kadar from Budapest, Hungary just dropped a nice surprise for the flatland community.
Filmed and edited by the one and only Sevisual, Veronika has been working hard on new tricks in the off season, under the watchful eyes of Varo Hernandez and Adam Kun. Hit play and enjoy this one!
This absolutely needs the Must Watch tag, even though this dropped on the IGi flat bmx instagram page yesterday. I feel we need to discuss this one on many levels, but first a little back story.
Benjamin Hudson dropped this one for a online contest in Chile, where the time limit was three minutes.
Having just watching Benjamin’s riding at Jeux Urbains in Montreal, it became apparent that he managed to link almost all his signature moves in one line, and also managed to mix front and back wheel into it, is this the best BMX flatland line ever done? And the style too, this bring back memories of Moto Sasaki’s groundtactics line…
It is certainly a massive contender for line of the year, when we get to the Flatmattersonline Year end awards later in the year.
Love these jam edits, Alberto Moya puts together documenting the Madrid scene and passing visitors, on this occasion the locals met up Matti Hemmings and made sure to stack some clips.
Featuring Álvaro Hernandez, Alberto Moya, Matti, Fernando Bayona, Dasha Rabanete, Varo Hernández, Miguel Tardío, Geronimo, and Mario García Correas.
Good vibes in Madrid!

Dan Nghieu is one of the up and riders in the US, that combines flat and street style and makes it his own, even with a cassette. I’ve been sitting this one for just over two weeks, and was well worth the wait, every edit is getting better and better. Good stuff Dan!
Good morning to the flatland community!
Back to it after a busy holiday season,I always enjoy the official Chimera A-side videos, as always these are always high level with all the classes covered.
Grab a cuppa and enjoy this one!
