Must Watch! “REVEAL” yourself

Posted on by — 5 Comments ↓

“REVEAL” yourself from FuckFlatlandEntertainment on Vimeo.

Check this out! Awesome!!!

“The 3rd episode of “yourself” movies.
“REVEAL” yourself. We shot two riders from Osaka. Shunsuke and Kiyo Chan.
They’re great riders trying to pursue their style of BMX riding. We see same riders in many videos, so we think we should show riders not in videos. During the filming, they were stoked in shooting movie, because they can see their own riding with third eyes. Some people feel ashamed to show theirselves, but the truth is you’ll get inspired by yourself through watching yourself. And, that movie will possibly inspire somebody in the world.
So, “REVEAL” yourself!!”

Eclat Freecoaster Sneak Peek

Posted on by — 3 Comments ↓

Freecoasters seem to be all the rage again, with the increase in “cab” style in street riding. Dave Paterson over at the merged website posted this earlier. In his words “Probably one of the most anticipated BMX products in the past few year, Eclat‘s Shane Weston Signature Blind Freecoaster Hub looks to be near completion. There has been major hype about this thing ever since we papped it at Eurobike last year, and this photo stolen from Eclat’s Instagram may be a clue to its upcoming release. Real excited for this one, expect more info towards Interbike in September…”
