Martti Kuoppa launches 7 Grounds!
When I started Master Of Creativity I had no idea how popular it would get so fast. I received many entries and a lot of messages, where riders expressed their excitement about the format.
Which made me feel, that I truly want to give back something to the riders out there and the first idea was, that I am going to build a brand that will be the first sponsor of Master Of Creativity.
Soon after the idea of 7Grounds was born and here I am, launching my own brand, which will donate a portion of each sale for the Master Of Creativity competition (my dream is to run a video contest that has a prize money).
I know that the world is packed with t-shirt brands but I also feel, that world is not full of t-shirt brands that really care about the lifestyle of Flatland BMX. Here it is.
I am keeping the selection to very limited, because that´s the way I do things. Each item purchased from my shop will be numbered by me and when the item is sold out, that´s it, it´s not available anymore.

I have a team too, it will be me, Thomas Noyer and Peter Olsen.
Thank you for riding Flatland! Let´s keep the tradition alive!

Matthias Dandois – Canal Saint Martin
Every 15 years, the city of Paris empties the Canal Saint Martin to clean it. When I heard that, Matthias Dandois instantly thought it would be cool to do some photos inside. With the help of Red Bull and Hadrien Picard, Matthias was able to make a video and get some photos done at what I can imagine was an incredibly hard spot to ride at! Not to mention it is also MD’s 27th birthday today, Bon anniversaire!
