YO!!
We are back with episode 54 of the Flatmattersonline exclusives.
Today we have an absolute treat from one of my favourite riders, Bruno Zebu from Brazil. This cat has so much style on the some of the hardest switches, and he comes through with this insane halfhiker turbine pivot to opposite xft halfpacker and flows into a ridiculous line. These clips are getting absolutely insane as someone commented recently.
Thank you Bruno for contributing, who’s got episode 55?
YO!!!
Welcome back, today we have a real treat for you!
Trevor Meyer during the 90’s was the most prolific contest rider on the globe, and Trevor is still going strong as you will see in this 53rd episode of the Flatmattersonline exclusives!
Freshly baptised this week, Trevor comes through with an awesome bar spin ice cream line pivot into pumping inside switch-b, smooth as glass! Trevor in my opinion, is one of the best to ever touch a 20 inch freestyle BMX bike, his tricktionary is as deep as anyones in the game, so stoked he came through with an FM exclusive.
Thanks Trevor for contributing!
Whose got episode 54?
Kio Hayakawa took third place at the 2020 Japanese National Championships this past weekend. This kid is absolutely amazing, enjoy his qualifying and his finals run right here.
Thanks Stewart Munro for the footage.
YO!!!
What’s up everyone? It’s been a busy week, juggling riding, work, judging e-fise and so on. But, we are back to it today! US flatland shredder, Tyler Gilliard came through with an amazing crackpacker whip line from episode 52 of the Flatmattersonline exclusives filmed at his workplace/dojo in Florida.
Tyler has such a fast style, great to watch, and delivers a banger for us all…
Thanks Tyler for contributing, who’s got episode 53?
YO!!

We are back on the road towards 100 episodes of the Flatmattersonline exclusives, today London Bikes CEO, Will Redd comes through with Episode 51!
Over the last five or so years, I have been lucky enough to get to see Will ride in person at the Battle in the Rockies contest in Colorado. Will is one of the most skilled riders in the game, such a strength in depth to what he’s doing on a 20 inch bike.
And he comes through right here with a amazing twist on the forward side glide, an old school flatland trick comes with a new school twist and that’s what freestyle is all about!
Thanks Will for contributing, whose got episode 52?
YO!!!
We made it, 50 episodes of the Flatmattersonline exclusives! Thank you to everyone who has contributed towards the series that has helped inspire us all, particularly during the lockdown period.
When I started the FM exclusives again with episode 1 dropping on January 23rd, I was out in San Francisco and had the idea to start the series with Pete Brandt. I never thought we would be still doing these exclusives at 50 episodes, but now the exclusives in my opinion have become a staple of the site.
The 50th episode took a few twists and turns with people offering, but work commitments getting in the way. This however, worked out really well, Pete Brandt was the first exclusive and this year celebrated his 50th birthday, and still shows no signs of slowing down at all.
One of the new generation of pros to come out of the US, Austin Luberda from St Louis, Missouri came through with the elusive clip. I found it quite fitting that we start a new chapter with the new generation. Austin comes through with an absolutely hammer line, the gliding junkyard blindside pivot is absolutely amazing and he keeps the pace going throughout. Austin is a real name to look out for, I hope he can make a mark into the international contest scene at some point. Thank you Austin for stepping up. Whose got episode 51? Hopefully dropping Sunday….
Let me finish by saying…These clips have reached all generations of flatlanders, and that is the real beauty of doing these. Seeing all the different styles come through and inspire us all, thank you everyone who has stepped up once again….
YO!!
We are getting so close to the elusive 50th episode!!! UK rider, Josh Briars came through with a lovely flowing whiplash to hitchhiker line ending with what I call the Degroot undertaker. Chad if you are reading/watching this, what do you call that trick?
Josh filmed this line at the Millennium Square spot in Bristol, UK yesterday, so this is literally hot off the presses. Josh celebrated his birthday yesterday to boot, happy birthday Josh!!
Great to see Josh back on his bike after a few injuries.
Thanks Josh for contributing!
Whose got that elusive 50th episode, happy to say that will be dropping Wednesday and its a banger!!
YO!!!
We are back on track with the Flatmattersonline exclusives and closing in on 50 episodes… No one better to get this back on track than Stephen Hearn. One of my favourite riders, if you aaren’t familiar with the name.
Check this video part from Create filmed in 2006 (link below), in my opinion one of the best video parts ever. Stephen does not mess around when it comes to trick choice and right here for episode 48 fires out a smooth half hiker around the world back to half hiker and pivots into an opposite xft halfpacker, like I said before not an easy trick/line selection and Stephen makes it look easy.
Enough of my rambling, go watch and show some love. Thanks Stephen for taking the time to contribute.
Who’s got episode 49, dropping Sunday…..

The Flatmattersonline exclusives have dried up for the moment, let’s take an intermission break and keep things flowing..
Unseen Sam Foakes line from the TGM riding spot in West Norwood, London back in 2008. Sam does through with his infamous stalled cliff into a ridiculous line. Thanks to Mizo for sending this one. Good times at the TGM.
