While in Houston for the Jam Circle contest in Feb 2023, Francois got a chance to sit down with legendary Nor-Cal shredder Pete Brandt. We discuss his BMX roots, his influences, his tricks, his bikes, contests, travels, shows, his views on the sport and so much more.

Stoked this morning to wake up to a fresh winter riding edit from Alex Jumelin! So good to see Alex go in, and drop so many new switches in this 2K23 edit filmed by his wife Elodie. There’s a lot to take in on both wheels, love the invisible hand opposite Karl jump to forward Karl at the 00:40 mark.
Edit of the year so far, great to see a top heavy hitting pro like Alex show us what he’s working on, who’s got next?! Flatland needs more of this!!!
Martin Drazil made the trip from the Czech Republic last weekend for Round 1 of the UK Bmx Flatland League in Leicester. And took home, third place! Check out his runs right here!
Taking it back to March 1988, Perry Mervar ripping at what looks like a local AFA contest. It’ been a minute since an OSS, Perry rips! Thanks Todd Carter for this one!
Love the no handed hang ten in circles in this highlight edit of Todd Carter’s February sessions, good stuff Todd!
One of the highlights of Round 1 of the UK BMX Flatland League in Leicester was the return of James White to the contest scene. Despite being bullied into entering, James it seemed had more fun than anyone else and took a well earned second place finish.
Enjoy both his runs, including his commentary.
Matti Hemmings took first place in the Pro Class at Round 1 of the UK BMX Flatland League this past weekend in Leicester. Check out both of his runs right here, thanks to Nic Newman and Matthew Dyer for filming.

It’s been a great day at Round 1 of the UK BMX Flatland League in Leicester. Congratulations to Matti Hemmings who took first place in the Pro Class, followed by James White coming out of contest retirement and looking like he’s never been out of the contest scene, and rounding out the podium, Martin Drazil all the way from Prague!
* I have the top three Pro runs, and will post up this coming week. Stay tuned!

A lot of coverage from the recent Jam Circle contest in Houston, Texas. But this is without a doubt, the most comprehensive at 4:30, uncut practise footage plus the battles. Unfortunately, the battery went on the final battle. Thanks Brandon Woldridge for this amazing coverage, I will be checking this one when I have some spare time!
Anyone else noticing that there are now plenty of great events going down across the pond in the US!
Round 1 of the 2023 AFA series is going down on April 22nd in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and the AFA are combining forces with the Hall of Fame to start the year off. Get there if you can!
