BikeWorx Remix – Danny Sirkin from dannysirkin on Vimeo.
Kicking off our Sunday posts with this nice Bikeworx Remix edit from the man behind Quest BMX, Danny Sirkin. Filmed between 1995-98, mostly at the legendary Chenga 1 skatepark. I especially liked the no handed circle k at 2:19! But there is plenty more to enjoy, hit play for this one.
Intro: Effraim/James McGraw.
Interview: Effraim.

As some of you have noticed, Flatmattersonline is taking a more exclusive content direction in 2018. When I started out planning this, I had a list of people I wanted to interview and find more about. One of those riders at the top of my list was Austin Luberda. I passed the intro over to James McGraw who has watched Austin grow as a rider. Over to Mr McGraw!
Some people say the American flatland scene has lost its prominence.
But like any sport, there is always that next young talent that comes out of nowhere, or in this case, out of Missouri.
In 2014, Austin Luberda turbined his way to the first Battle in the Rockies contest. He traveled alongside his Mom, Dad, and his future wife. (Sorry Dax) He entered the expert class and placed in the top 3. His style and flow were completely eye-opening. He battled at a shot at competing in the pro finals. He did not win his battle, but he did deliver under pressure and rode exceptionally well. All of us knew this guy was here to stay.
LIFERS – episode 4 – RUBEN "R-DOG" CASTILLO III from Hippie Josh on Vimeo.
Great interview edit by Hippie Josh for Episode 4 in the Lifer Series with Ruben Castillo where he talks about growing riding pre internet, riding with his brother Robert, and a while lot more. This is awesome and well worth your time watching!
Most of you will have read the Jay Marley interview about the Gasparilla Flatland Jam last weekend in Tampa, Florida now it’s time for some footage. This jam footage features the likes of Bo Wade, Bryan Huffman, Terry Adams, Tyler Gilliard, Dax Wolford, and a few Florida locals I don’t recognise. Thanks for the heads up on this one Dax!
Giannis Caternellis dedicates his latest edit to Rodney Williams and drops two lines, the front over three minutes long and the back wheel line at over four minutes. Skills!
For this weeks throwback we go back to 1996/97 and a video put together by Eduardo Sousa and Colin Smith. Featuring the likes of Amos Burke, James White, yours truly, Phil Dolan, Andrew Faris, Jesse Puente, Day Smith, Marton Szilagyi and many more! Great memories!

Featuring Yasuhiro Uehara, Takayuki Iwate, Yoshihiro Shinde, Yukihiro Sato and everyone’s favourite Hirokazu Miura! Thank you Hiroki for these amazing updates from Japan!
