Catching up on a whole lot of news today after a really busy weekend. Congratulations to Toon Pakphum who took the Best Trick win with this savage stem boomerang body varial halfpacker line at true Voodoo Jam on saturday night. Amazing!!
Some fresh contest footage this morning from the MCG contest, and highlights from Vova Isaev riding in particular, enjoy!
Nice one from the archives today for this weeks TBT. We go back to 1989 and the UKBFA National in Carlisle, Sean Clarke, yours truly Effraim Catlow, Liam Ward, Rob Alton, surfer king Nick Galway, Ian Coy, Mike O’Connell, Gareth Swan, Lee Clarke, David Frame, David Blundell, Mark Noble, John Yull and Gary Neale. Really enjoyed this trip down memory lane, thanks to Neil Waddington for this one.
Denes Katona footage is rare these days and that’s a good thing. Always excited and appreciate seeing what this rolling god has to offer and this run from the recent Over 8 Bar contest in Komárom, Hungary is absolutely amazing and deserves your attention. Respect Denes!

BMX Cologne 2017 – Flatland Pro Final Highlights from Global Flat on Vimeo.
Missed this great highlights edit by Martin over at Global Flat from the recent BMX Cologne contest. So much good riding in this one from the likes of Matthias Dandois, Alex Jumelin, Jean William Prevost, Thomas Noyer, Dominik Nekolny, Kevin Nikulski, Dustyn Alt and more.
Albert Retey’s run from the Worlds in Limoges, France 1993 still gives the same feeling in 2017 as it did back then. This will forever in my mind be one of the best runs of all time, if you were and you soaked in the atmosphere, the music and the way this run built up you will know exactly what I am talking about!
Nice edit by Lisias Comum from the recent Copa Brazil contest featuring Mateus Beckmann, Bruno Zebu and Romulo Guerra.
Now I’m sure I posted this before, but I can’t seem to find it. In any case, Dustyn Alt’s trip to last year’s Flatark contest in Kobe, Japan is certainly worth rewatch.
One of my own personal highlights from the 2017 BMX Cologne was getting to see Sietse Van Berkel ride again. Qualified in 4th, ended up in 7th place in a stacked pro final is no joke at all! One of the freshest styles in the game right now, don;t sleep on this one and watch out for an amazing save towards the end of his run that had us all stoked and screaming!
