Johann Chan recently found old footage of Alexis Desolneux from a trip to Paris in 1994.
Alexis went on to become a pioneer in brakeless riding, so it was nice to re-visit this old (pre-brakeless) footage and re-cut it to music we listened to at the time.
Music: Reclamation by Fugazi.
Desolneux ” digging in the crates ” . Loving this ! Such a cool cat , I met him in New Orleans , 2017 . He listens to Entombed ( legendary Death Metal band. ) , was the first to 360 twitch a side squeak ,brakeless . ( Baco -8 .) , and has check countless boxes ,involving loads of whiplash , back , side , and half packer juggle and x-leg variations…….not to mention pedal stance bar flip , pivot , and wild tricks / transitions during lines……all these things and more keep me stoked on him…..thank you for the post , Effraim…….
