I haven’t found much footage from the opening round of the 2024 UCI World Cup in Enoshima, but I came across this footage of Varo Hernandez’s flawless run, check it out!
The Head Angle BMX podcast is a nw one to me, and perhaps you at home too. Who better to interview on a podcast than one of the most interesting BMX lifers in the game to this day, Dennis McCoy! Thanks for the shoutout on this one D, grab a cuppa and enjoy this one!
Episode 42 of the Hang 5 Podcast just dropped with one of the raddest dudes in the game, over to Francois and his guest… Dan Hennig.
“For this episode, we go to the old continent and the neutral country of Switzerland where our guest has settled down. Originally from Germany, he has been riding for over 20 years. A fixture of the Euro scene, he is also attending most of the World cups events. Working part time, riding full time. We discuss his roots, his journey, his approach to competitions, living healthy, having a private riding spots, his views on the sport, what the future has in store for him and so much more. I truly enjoyed discussing with Mr Dan Hennig.”

Love this shot of Sietse mid pivot switch foot steam captured on a night session.
My plan is to go to Japan for Flatark in December 2023 and Chimera A-Side in January 2024. There is a 2.5-week gap between the events, and I have decided to stay in Asia during that time. I need some sun, to get away from the Netherlands, and time for myself after a challenging period. I quickly decide on Thailand: curious about the culture, food, nature, and I think it’s easily accessible for the relatively short duration. I know Toon from various events in the past years, and I message him that I will be in Thailand during that period. Off we go!
Congratulations to Nina Suzuki taking a big win on home turf in Japan at the first stop of the Fise World / UCI World Cup on Enoshima. Followed on the podium by Ayuna Miyashima and Yui Kiyomune.
If anyone has any footage from the event please get in touch.
Congratulations to Yu Katagiri taking the top spot in qualifying at Stop 1 of the FISE World / UCI World Cup followed by Jean William Prevost and Yu Shoji!
Rain is forecast tomorrow in Enoshima Japan so this is likely to be the final result. Stay tuned!
OG Marton from Hungary just dropped his Over 53 edit, and it’s a banging featuring recent footage and some golden footage from the 90’s including junkyard to double decade at the 3:26 mark that gave me a bunch throwback vibes from his early OG Gypsy videos. Definitely worth watching this one, one of the most skilled riders hands down.
