UNKUT X ALEX JUMELIN from alex jumelin on Vimeo.
A nice treat for you all! You definitely don’t want to miss this hot new edit from Alex Jumelin for his new sponsor Unkut. This edit ticks all the boxes as a modern day pro rider, great production/filming, new tricks (love the Pedal G-Roll line at 2:08, but theres so much more), lifestyle shots with product placement for the sponsors. Alex continues to push his personal riding at an amazing rate, enjoy this one!
Mateus continues to push his own riding level up a few notches, yet another incredible edit right here! Some of the highlights in my eyes were the x-handed turn bucket around 00:58, the following rollback foot jam decade line at 1:09, the halfhiker body varial to circle k half packer at 1:46, and the x-foot half cab steam ender at 5:28! And of course there is so much more! Thank you Mateus! This made my day!
Dub continues to break new ground with his “Forklift” trick with this absolutely incredible combo to celebrate the release of his Far East Turbo Frame! I’m hitting rewind and giving this the “Must Watch” tag!
Another month just flown by in the world of BMX Flatland! So many amazing riders and edits, the Must Watch feature of FM has become one of the trademarks of the site.
I made the decision to make it harder to get that “Must watch” tag about a month or so ago, one man noticed and understood (James White), its one of those things I can’t win really. Sometimes in the past via feedback from a broad spectrum of riders I have been too easily giving that “Must Watch” tag away. With amazing videos such as Moto’s, Dub’s, and Owen Bohn. I left them at the top of the site for the day, thats my way of saying, “Hey flatland world, this video is awesome, check it out! I’m more thinking unless it is something I think is completely off the charts, and never been done before, edits only will get that tag. It’s great to see hear riders are striving to get that tag, nice to know people are taking notice.
Hope that explains my way of thinking.
With that being said, here is the video I picked out this month as standing out and pushing new ground, particularly the spinning karl on pedal at 1:10, and the two footed backwards steam on the pedals jump to regular steam at 2:44.
This is incredible! Don’t miss Moto’s Zai Furutuwamono part, the spinning karl on pedal combo at 1:10, and the mind-blowing balance point on Moto’s two footed spinning pedal backwards karl to steam at 2:44! Hitting the replay right now!
Already so many amazing edits this year, and as Springtime has just kicked in for many of us the number will surely only rise! Take a rewind on our Must Watch picks for March!

Dub was working on this at the guru jam and now has it down! Amazing balance point on this two footed death truck on the pedals! Dub is always pushing so theres no telling where this Forklift move will head? You definitely don’t want to miss this one!

On March 7th, James White dropped an absolute banger on the flatland world! It is fair to say at the ripe age of 44, James dropped the best edit of his riding career! Later that day I shared a birthday beer with the man, not a bad way to spend my 40th birthday! Hit play on this way again, the body varial xft ice cream and that last move. Sexy flatland!
So many new whopper related bangers in this monthly edit from the incredibly talented Mateus Beckmann, the standout for me however is the 180 backwards peg wheelie half cab to steam line at 3:23! Don’t miss this one!
Like Mateus, Shintaro keeps on the incredible path of progression he’s been on it is seems particularly the last few months, one of my favourite riders for sure and maybe yours! Theres so much technicality to his riding, around half way Shintaro switches to a front brake, enjoy the edit!
The month ended with Adam Kun and Sevisual Tom combining to bring you this banging “Welcome to Kunstform” edit filmed in Cali! The half cab half whopper step with the same foot to pedal 5 at 2:17 had me hitting the rewind a few times just to figure what was going on, and there is a ton more! This is a real treat!

Just yesterday I was wondering to myself, we are about due another Mateus Beckmann edit. And bang this morning here it is, as always this kid is pushing hard! So many new whopper related bangers in this one, the standout for me however is the 180 backwards peg wheelie half cab to steam line at 3:23! Don’t miss this one!
