Must Watch! Mateus Beckmann – SAMPA BMX MB Frame Promo

Posted on by — 23 Comments ↓

In terms of the flatland/street crossover it’s of course debatable, but I would say no one right now is as progressive in that style of riding than this young prodigy from Brazil, Mateus Beckmann!

5:30 of fresh flat/skatepark footage that leaves you scratching your head, is there anything this young talent cannot do.

I’m already on the fourth watch before I posted this, some of the highlights so far include:

-180 hop backwards manual junkyard line at 00:26.
-The x-fted BB manual to decade out of the two footed backyard line at 1:36.
-The huge 5 off flat bank half cab whip out around 2:18.
-Inward direction half bar flip decade at 2:37

I could go on, definitely worth watching this young prodigy do his thing and kill it hard on all terrain. Motivational!

Must Watch! Simon O’Brien – Colony BMX

Posted on by — 5 Comments ↓

This is somewhat of a different “Must Watch” than I normally do as this video for Colony BMX dropped about a month ago on Facebook and I wasn’t able to post it on the site. So it doesn’t have the same impact as a video you haven’t already seen but equally there is so much good stuff within this edit I had to give it the “Must watch” tag. And is also even more amazing when you consider his health problems, so good to see Simon back and firing!

Standouts for me are:

-the quick blender out opposite side I’ve been waiting to see for years at 1:16.

-forward karl jump to backwards halfpacker turbine forwards line at 2:10.

– Fire hydrant decade mega spin to Edgar P time machine line at 2:50.

Must Watch! George Manos / Dayrkness

DAYRKNESS from HERESY BMX on Vimeo.

A real treat today out of Heresy’s George Manos! George continues to push the pegless direction in his riding to new levels in his new “Dayrkness” edit. I’m bit late posting this as Vimeo was down last night, standouts for me after a few watches are a couple things I have never seen before. A lot of the combos George is doing have no name other than perhaps what he might call them, I’m several watches in right now and still hitting the rewind on the pegless whiplash at 00:12, and combos with amazing foot to tyre switches technique at 00:51, 1;06 stood out to me! Great to see pushing George continue to pushing pegless riding to new heights, 100% originality right here, and so much style too!

Matthieu Bonnecuelle is pushing flatland into new areas, and it was no surprise to me that he was voted Breakthrough Rider of the Year in the 2015 Flatmattersonline Year end Awards. Now in 2016, he is already starting the year with a NBD, do I really have to tell you to hit play! My mind is blown yet again by this amazing talent from Southern France!
