Throwback Thursday with Chase Gouin

It’s been a while since I posted this amazing section of Chase Gouin, from the Chasing the View off the Cliff video, filmed in 1994 with bonus footage of Chad Degroot, Day Smith, Bill Nitschke and Ross Smith at the BS Contest in Chicago, in 95.. This is well worth a watch, timeless riding!

Alberto Moya – In Crescendo

Alberto Moya – In Crescendo from IGI BMX on Vimeo.

In Crescendo is a self filmed/edited by Alberto Moya. It was filmed in different spots around Japan: Nagoya, Noda, Kawasaki and Matsudo. Really enjoyed the concept of this production and how the edit builds, great work Moya!

“In this video I try to play with the tempo of the riding and the tempo of the classic musical piece by Edvard Grieg In The Hall of the Mountaing King. My goal is to make it visible that BMX Flatland is about the Rythm and Tempo”

MUSIC : The Hall of the Mountain King by Edvard Grieg.

Throwback Thursdays with Sam Foakes

The back to back lines no editing from 00:41 are still to this day jaw droopingly amazing, and for everyone that keeps asking me yes Sam still rides when he has the time.

The Dan Margetts Flatmattersonline Podcast

I met Dan Margetts last week in Bristol for a flatland session. Dan was a regular on the UK contest flatland scene during the 2000’s, and vanished all of a sudden. I said to Matti Hemmings, what happened to Dan? Find out more about this seedy fella who doesn’t drink beer because it tastes like earwax…..

It seemed like the perfect time to find out what’s going on with Dan and where his mindset is at. If you don’t know Dan’s riding, check the recent Worcester to Bristol edit out on Flatmattersonline!
