Chiaki Todaka wins the UCI World Championships 2025: Women’s Elite

Congratulations to 15 year old Chiaki Todaka taking the UCI World Championship title back to Japan, followed by Carin Hommura and Sona Yoshimura in third place with Hungarian Veronika Kadar in the fourth place spot. The level was the highest I’ve seen so far in the Women’s class, really exciting to watch the progression each event. (Check the socials for some mind blowing lines from these shredders!).

Ross Smith: 2010s

Golden footage from the archives around the 2010 period, from one of the best to ever do it. Non other than Ross South, double rolaids, check, double straddle-ronis, check, backwards xft-ed hitch jugglers, its all here! Ross is one of the masters of feathering the brake, a technique sadly lost and overlooked in the brakeless era!
