Must Listen! – Part 1 Chase Gouin Radio Interview!
Great Radio interview with Flatland legend Chase Gouin in between the music, you might want to let this soundcloud clip load then skip through. The interview discusses his recovery with fungal/mould illness, how he got into riding, his passion for flatland riding, of particular interest to me was the question about judging, where he talks about variety, trickiontary, originality. Theres a whole lot more, it’s definitely a must listen! Good work Luis Elías Benavides! Look forward to Part 2!
