Julien Baran – 1st Place AM / BMX Cologne 2018

This year’s BMX Cologne contest was all about the fresh faces coming through the ranks, and one of the stories of the weekend. Julien Baran made the trip to Cologne with his family and at only 12 years old threw down in finals to keep hold of the first place qualifying spot. To win the BMX Cologne contest at 12 years old is an unbelievable achievement, this kids future is a bright one!

Viki Gomez – TED Talk / Freestyle your life

Many of you will recall the Rodney Mullen TED talk I posted on the site a few years back, it is rare to hear Flatlanders talk about what they do on this platform. Viki Gomez was given that opportunity, and gives a great talk about what he does and his philosophy in riding and the experiences he has had, really enjoyed this.

Alexis Desolneux – Coalesce

ALEXIS DESOLNEUX – COALESCE from HERESY BMX on Vimeo.

I often have wondered what would happen in the modern day if a technical flatlander brought hard flatland tricks and their creative mind to riding street, and Alexis Desolneux gives a taste of what is possible. Opposite backwards facing whiplashes anyone, lucky-e grind to x-x-ft whiplash out, I really enjoyed this one. Sit down with a cuppa and an open mind and enjoy this one, then go ride and do what you like.
