I was not expecting to hear 3rd Bass blasting through my speakers when I clicked on this new Nick Watts today. The man is full of surprises…

Mickey Gaidos: Summer 2020
Mickey G – Summer 2020 Flatland BMX from Mickey Gaidos on Vimeo.
Mickey Gaidos is a year back riding as of 16th July, after pretty much a 7 year hiatus, Terry Adams was a big part in getting Mickey back on board. Mickey wanted to document his riding progression during this time, with MG’s filming and editing skills this edit is really easy on the eye. Not to mention, Mickey’s riding. Good to see MG back in the groove!
Matthias Dandois: Welcome to the Swatch Team
Despite the pandemic, Matthias Dandois has managed to stay busy and active for his sponsors (even gaining new ones). Fresh back from a Haro trip in Arizona. Matthias just dropped this nice Welcome to Swatch edit full of flat/street clips, the standout move is definitely the wild new back wheel move he debuted on instagram about a week ago, you can see it here at the 00:12 mark. Incredible! Congratulations to Matthias on the new hook up!
Nick Watts: June 25th 2020
You know what day it is, fresh Nick Watts edit coming through like clockwork. This week, Nick throws down some really nice Messiah lines and a whole bunch more.
Dan Margetts: Fusion Extreme
Matti Hemmings hooked up with Dan Margetts at Dan’s riding spot in Worcester for a ride. Dan is dialled and through down a whole part in one session, love the no footed tomahawk at the 2:42 mark.
Nick Watts: 1991
Kicking off our Wednesday posts, Part 3 of Nick Watts back in 1991!
Look out for the opposite hang 5 step over to right side halfpacker around the 1:08 mark, and the x-foot on the cross bar one handed hang 5 at 2:24! Well worth giving this a watch, and get inspired for your session.
Episode 32: Flatmattersonline Exclusive with Paul Chamberlain
YO!
Welcome back to Flatmattersonline exclusive clips, today we feature British ex pat, Paul Chamberlain. Paul made the move down under, as he was reaching pro level here in the UK. When Paul left, due to our small scene, you really noticed Paul’s absence from the UK scene. Not only with his riding, but his enthusiasm, and general charisma.
I’m only always stoked when Paul comments on the site, and puts in his two cents, it was likewise great when he contacted me with a clip which he commented he learnt during the pandemic.
Paul comes through with a nice switch foot backwards ice cream pivot to two footed dump truck for the 32nd episode, thank you Paul for contributing.
Who’s got episode 33, dropping Wednesday. 5pm GMT.
Dan Hennig: Fall Forward
I’m not normally a fan of slo-mo clips in flatland, let alone a full slo-mo edit… But this “Fall Forward” hits the spot, nice narrative and amazing production to it, as well as Dan’s amazing riding to boot. Fully enjoyed this!
Viki Gomez: Worlds 2004
Another good upload from TJ Perry, this time its Viki Gomez jamming at the Cologne Wolrds 2004. KGB nostalgia in full flow right here, and love these raw edits that really capture the vibe of the riding and the evening sessions at the flatland tent in Cologne. Legendary.
Vivaasia
So many great videos documenting the scene in Japan that either pass through the FM firewall or just never reach us. Vivaasia is one of this evideos, thanks to TJ Perry for uploading this one. Great sections and riding clips from the likes of Kotaro Tanaka, Ryoji Yammamoto, Akira Okamura, York Uno, Yoshihiro Shinde and many more. At 24:40 long, grab a cuppa and enjoy this one.
