Terry Adams just hit us up with some sponsorship news, heres what he had to say:

“Just signed with a new innovative camera company 360fly. This camera allows you to capture video content at a full 360 degree angle. With flatland BMX being so complex this is a perfect devise to showcase my riding in a different and unique way.”

Must Watch! Charles Paty – Focus

To coincide with the launch of the new SoulBMX website, filmer Vincent De La Rue teamed up with style cat Charles Paty to bring this beautifully crafted production that combines hard unique flatland lines with thoughtful camerawork and editing. This is the kind of edit you show to people as an example of what flatland is and how it can be portrayed.

Scott Scholl – Grip Innovation

firstbatch

Scott Scholl from New York, hit me up with a grip design he has been working on with flatland in mind, read on.

“I just finished developing handlebar grips that I’ve had in mind for a long time. I make them myself out of silicone. Had the same pair on my bike for about a year now and they seem to be more durable than Krayton rubber- no thumb wear and no major damage after lots of hitchhiker accidents.

I designed The Pleasure grip so that it gives you three different hand positions with your fingers between the rings which adds better sideways traction- especially for Lardyards, and The Checker and Girly grip are for fun and variety. There doesn’t seem to be much innovation with grips right now so I think they will do well.”

Stay tuned….
