13to6 MOC from Martti Kuoppa on Vimeo.

The level went up several notches for the final round of the 2016 Master of Creativity contest, so amazing to see every rider push their level, and ultimately bring a whole bunch of new tricks to flatland! Here is the 13th through till 6th place edit Martti Kuoppa just put together, so proud to be involved in this amazing event for flatland that has without a doubt brought the most progressive riding of the year out and motivated us all! Respect to everyone!!

My personal favourite lines:

Forkone: Fire hydrant chick whips stem lash at 00:28.

Kevin Jacob: Nose stemlash nose g-turn at 00:58.

Hidenori Ishizaki: Xft pedal backwards facing backyard jump to pegs backwards backyard degroot undertaker out at 1:07.

Sakis Doumas: Hitch darkside to no footed dump truck kneeling on pedal at 1:51!

Will Redd: The Mix of the old school with Xft forward side glide to the contemporary 360 pivot to halfpacker + the following elbow glide turbine line is so good!

Sean Fontenot: Xft cab line to decade off the pedals around the 2:57 mark!

James White: Xft lawn flip gliding gerator to whiteski smith decade to xft hitch juggler flip back to xft lawn gliding gerator to whiteski decade out at 3:06!

Must Watch Paul Osicka footage @nora cup awards presenting Viki Gomez Rider of the Year

Stop what you are doing!!!

There was a rumour that flatland legend, Paul Osicka dropped a little part whilst he presented the award for flatlander of the year at the Nora Cup awards in Las Vegas. Well that rumour is true, and from the 00:53 mark you get a real treat with some fresh Osicka footage, the spinning nose wheelie at 1:17 is off the chart, style for miles! Respect!!!

Great edit by OG Marton of Mates Tucek killing it at the Vienna Flat Jam 2016 a few weeks back, in particular the last two lines from the 1:43 mark: the xft halfpacker flip to crackpacker, and the backwards hang five jump to crackpacker!

Must Watch! – James White / Me summer 2016 bits

There is literally only one rider that could song jack Kevin Jone’s infamous Dorkin’4 part and the use of The Who’s “Pin ball wizard” and that is James White! With Master of Creativity deadline yesterday I am kind of surprised to see this, but the man is so full of surprises I should stop being surprised really!

Standouts for me include:

00:54 – Xft lawn flip gliding gerator double undertaker line.

1:04 the style on the half hiker pressure flip xft one handed karl!

1:18 – Xft lawn flip gliding gerator opposite ice cream two footed backyard gliding gerator regular side walkover decade out!

1:53 – Xft stubble duck gliding gerator to whiteski signature decade out.

The last three bangers from the 2:33 mark – Xft ride in to whiteski signature decade out! Love the simplicity! Followed by a subtle bar flip to his signature zinger bunny hop move followed by one of the best line sod the year – xft ride flip to gliding gerator whiteski smith decade jump lash off same foot whiplash out!

Go and watch this right now! Only James can song jack this, seriously!
