Contest season is in full bloom right now, AFA Round 3 at the Huff Jam in Winston Salem, North Carolina USA this weekend (July 29th).
Bryan Huffman has put a ton of work into making this happen, look at those sponsors! Looking forward to the footage from this one. Good luck to everyone competing!
We just wrapped up the U.K. National Championships at the Backyard jam at Junction 4 Skatepark.
Congratulations to Matti Hemmings, crowned the British Champion followed by Lee Musselwhite and James White on the podium.
Great day for U.K. flatland. The UCI Worlds in Glasgow next up in a couple of weeks, stay tuned for the runs this coming week on Flatmattersonline.

I have mixed emotions after watching Sebastian Grubinger’s new “Finale” edit, you can of course talk about the unmatched level of his riding, but the fact he’s losing his riding spot…..
This edit really communicates the feeling of a flatlander losing his spot, many of us I am sure can relate.
I’m sure I will be talking about this edit at the end of the year, go watch it!
“Heldenplatz has been my second home since I moved to Vienna 2000. Unfortunately the spot will be reconstructed and from what we know it won’t be rideable anymore. It hurts.
I spent the past months filming my last clips there. Now it’s over. It’s time to move on. It’s alright.”
Sebastian.
I missed this one when it dropped, Mateus Beckmann is recovered and back from his knee injury and delivers a 8 minute part full of amazing flatland and street clips and blends the two so well. Don’t sleep on this, like I did. Welcome back Mateus!
It’s been a while with OSS, and something a little different right here to get back in the swing of things rather than a contest run. Get educated on SF’s Curb Dog pioneer, Maurice Meyer and whilst your at it, go subscribe to one of the best BMX podcasts right now.
Enjoy this one when you have three hours to spare!
For the last three winters Jean-François Boulianne has escaped the unforgiving harsh Canadian winters, for the Southern Californian sunshine and he does it all with just his bike and his van. Check out out this great edit produced by Joel Moody that really communicates JF’s lifestyl, not to mention some great riding to boot.
Congratulations to Moto Sasaki and Sakura Kawaguchi taking the wins in Men’s and Women’s class today in Tagaytay City out in the Philippines. Full final results below. Thanks Paulo Gepulango for the photos and results.
Congratulations to Dustyn Alt who just won the German Championships in Duisburg, followed by Tim Hofel and Chris Bohm! Next stop Glasgow.

It’s time for episode 35 of the Hang 5 podcast…
Where do we start? Francois’ guest this time around has been riding since the mid 80s and done it all: Park, street, dirt, and of course Flatland for which is most renowned.
Growing up in the midwest us, He is the winner of Three Flatland NORA cups, he was named one of the most influential riders by Ride BMX Magazine, he is one of the founding members of BACO, He has owned skateparks, a bike shop and of course DECO BMX. This is the story of Chad Degroot!
James White, Amos Burke and Johann Chan met up for a session last weekend in London, plenty of flat and street lines to enjoy in this one. This is a fun watch!
