URBAN MATTERZ F(L)AT BMX BATTLE 19 SEPTEMBER. 8 RIDERS ANNOUNCED!

Bart de Jong hit me up with some contest news, if you around the Helmond, Holland area next weekend…

It’s been in the making for a while and it’s time to start spreading the word. On 19 September 2026 the F(L)AT BMX Battle will take place in my hometown Helmond. 8 of the best Flatland riders will go head to head in a Flatland battle in front of Museum Helmond (Kunsthal) that will host a 4-month Street Culture & Graffiti exhibition that FATBMX is a part of. For the opening weekend the doors are open for free making a trip to Helmond a good plan. The Flatland competition will be held on a 10m x 10m platform with fitting music and Block Party vibe as part of the event. Little side activities are planned such as a Footdown challenge for BMX-ers young and old, Old Skool Flatland Jam Circle session and a performance by Kymer. The 8 invited Flatland riders are announced below.

It will be the best Flatland riding that has ever made it to Helmond, Netherlands.

The Road Home Jam: September 20th

Here’s the word from Terry Adams:

I’m hyped to announce there’s gonna be a Flatland Jam right here in my hometown of Hammond on the same day as the world premiere of my documentary, The Road Home!

We’re throwing down an all-day session jam with riders coming in from all over—no official contest, just straight-up riding, good vibes, and community. I’ll be handing out $1,000 in Flatland Fuel gift cards and giving out 10 awards for riders who kill it in different categories throughout the day.

I’ve already talked to a bunch of you behind the scenes, and I’m seriously stoked that so many of you are making the trip.

But the main event… That’s happening that night—the world premiere of my documentary “The Road Home” at the Columbia Theatre. This film is my life’s story, and nothing would mean more than packing the house with all of you who’ve been a part of this journey. Let’s make history and sell out the theater for the first time ever.

Save the date: September 20th. Let’s ride, connect, and celebrate together right here in Hammond. I can’t wait to see you all. More info coming soon on close hotels, The after party, and how to reserve your seat in the theater.
