day by day -Apr 2014- from Shintaro Misawa on Vimeo.
There a lot of things to love about Shintaro’s riding, always evolving. Check his latest day by day edit, this month Shintaro is exploring double front brakes. Hit play to see what he come up with!
Dope new “Welcome to Deco” edit from Lee Musselwhite, reworking some of his classic rolling positions, this is most definitely worth a watch!
Alan Young sent in this sad news, with a call for help from the flatland community. If you can help, hit the link below:
“My best friend and fellow flatlander from Indiana, was in a serious bmx accident this past
sunday and is now hospitalized. He has three broken neck vertebrae, compressed lower back,
broken sternum, clavical and concussion. There is a strong possibility he will be paralyzed from
his waist down. His wife and family setup a online fundraiser to help start to cover the medical bills.”
A lot of thoughts come into my mind watching this edit of James, firstly Happy Birthday James who is today is 44, as is Pete Brandt! The progression of James’ back wheel riding since he went brakeless is so awesome to see, and of course the fire Mr McGraw shows after pulling that last combo puts a smile on my face and maybe yours! Will you be this fired up at the age of 44? Hit play and celebrate James birthday! Hell yes!
One of the best things about producing this site is following people’s progression, and at the moment Joe certainly seems to be progressing almost daily! Just the other day Joe learnt Jaffa Whips both inside and outside, two different techniques, here he works both into a combo! On another note it is great to see an AM pushing it on the daily! Keep on Joe!
Sick new progression edit from Fabien Stephan, not used to seeing Fabien on the back wheel so the junkyard drop to xft inside steam around the 00:45 mark stood out for me, but there a ton more! Well worth a watch!
You may remember that Alex had a flatland school in Paris a few years ago. That school run for many years at his infamous training spot in the suburbs of Paris. Now Alex has taken the idea to a school in New Orleans, and is putting in some work to the grassroots scene in the US! Heres what Alex had to say:
“I’m in charge of a new project to develop flatland in new orleans .
The international school of louisiana (ISL ) ask to built a bmx flatland team , out of a 25 kids audition i selected 9 kids to be part of it.
My mission is to teach those kids how to ride flatland , they learn tricks and ride under my advice from 8 to 3 everyday for the next 2 weeks.
It’s a very good experience and motivate me to start a real flatland school here in new orleans.”
In this weeks episode, Bobby goes to Stuttgart Germany and check out the scene there. These dudes lay down some heavy combos. Don’t miss it.
Riders include: Sebastian Pospischil, Daniel Fuhrmann, Flo Sailer, and Stephan Henrich.
Keisuke shows some flatland basics with japanese subtitles, at the legendary Kobe flatland spot!
Simon O’Brien’s first solo video “Made You Look” Part 2 from Stewart Munro on Vimeo.
Stewart Munro just uploaded Part 2 of Simon O’Brien’s epic “Made You Look” Solo DVD. This is still such a good watch, the standouts for me are the Forward karl jump through frame to backwards backpacker line at 1:13, and the Xft halfhiker flip backwards halfpacker combo at 2:21, but there is so much more!
