It is crazy to think even with the injury set backs, Giannis Caternellis has had. He is still able to throw down a new edit almost every week, Giannis has unlocked the door on the controlled one footed hitched one footed backpacker. And even using his hoodie pocket, drops a no handed one footed hitch in this one, go watch this. Giannis is incredible, respect!

Rodney Williams: Raw Footage
If I was giving an award for number one supporter of Flatmattersonline, that would have to go to the one and only Rodney Williams! Check out this raw footage he just uploaded, love the one footed cowboy bar flip at around the 1:29 mark, that is a tough move! Yes Rodney!
Gernot Ibounig 2020: From Vienna with Love
Gernot Ibounig 2020 – From Vienna with love …. from Christoph Diebold on Vimeo.
Some of you may remember Gernot Ibounig from the late 90’s, Gernot was at a lot of the bigger contests during that time period. The last two years in a row I have run into Gernot at the annual One Love Jam in Newport Beach, California.
He just dropped his annual edit, and it’s a great one. Multiple whiplashes on lock and that 90’s style added to brakeless style makes this one a fun watch. Thank you for the Flatmatters shoutout towards the end, wasn’t expecting that! If you are reading this Gernot, I hope we cross pathes again and get a session going in the near future…
Matthias Dandois: Unlocked Down / A Midnight Cruise in Paris
I’m a bit late posting this new beautiful new edit by Matthias Dandois, directed by Pierre Blondel, photography by Vincent Perraud. Here’s MD had to say:
“Paris is the most visited city in the world and is always full of energy and surprises.
The streets that were once full of cars, tourist and pedestrians suddenly became quiet and empty in November.
From the Champs Elysées to the Eiffel Tower and going through Montmartre or Paris Opera house, It made a perfect playground for BMX riding and some never-seen-before footage in the French capital who fell asleep.”
Renz Viaje: My bike flip progression
It’s crazy to think that it took over 20 years for the bike flip to become a trend, and now we are seeing a lot of riders throwing down variations on the technique. Renz Viaje has that smooth style and throws these flips effortlessly!
Must Watch: Austin Luberda / A.M. Sessions
It is amazing during this difficult year, that we can really see the value of flatland and how good it is for our souls and general well being. Austin Luberda has made a big impact on the US flat scene over the last few years, amazing flow and style. Recently, he and his lovely wife Anna, had their first child together, and in order to continue riding at a high level and juggle parent life Austin changed his riding schedule from the afternoon/evening to early morning session.
And the result, is absolutely amazing. Not only the riding, but the morning light is something unless you ride early mornings you won’t know what I am talking about. Let’s talk about the riding….
And in particular, I want to highlight the last two lines at 2:48 and the gliding junkyard blindside pivot to switch hand switch foot time machine breaks new ground, and opens a new door for Austin at 3:07!
This edit has it all, easy on the eye, ground breaking moves, well edited, the list goes on. I really want to see Austin on the big contest stage, keep on keeping on Austin! It’s a good day on Flatmattersonline!!
Yohei Uchno introduces his new Flat/Skatepark!
Something a little different right here, Yohei Uchino introduces his new flatland/skateboard park, it is pretty incredible in my opinion that Ucchie can make this happen. From the tone of this video, it looks like there will be plenty more updates from this amazing facility in Japan!
Keelan Phillips: 2020 Mixtape
Keelan Phillips has one of the best styles in the game, and continues to refine the 360, 720 nose manual variations with epic control! This is so good to watch!

Loving Brian Tunney’s monthly updates, such a nice way of documenting your personal progression or merely just what you are doing during that time period. From invisible hand elbow glides, to turbine hitch, to undertakers, as always there is plenty of the good stuff right here.
