Been sitting on this one for a few days, perfect for Throwback Thursdays! TS7 the last in the series from OG Marton! Featuring Sepy, OG Marton, Bobby Carter, yours truly Effraim Catlow, Pete Brandt, David Nagy, Markus Redlburger, Shane Badman, Peter Sarlos, Adam Kun, Matthias Dandois and many more! This is so dope!
The first major flatland contest of the year is one day away, lot of history from the Toronto. So this had to be my choice for a Throwback this week! Great riding and edit by Daniel Curuso from Flatland Unlimited 5 featuring Justin Miller, Dominik Nekolny, Dane Beardsley, Cameron Lachlan, Shintaro Misawa, Jeff Desroche, and Cory Fester. Amazing riding!
Great section that I haven’t seen before from the 2003 UGP Roots Jam featuring the likes of Justin MIller, Dave Petrin, Manuel Prado, Phil Dolan, Terry Adams, Stephan Cerra, Matt Wilhelm, Steve Mulder and many others. This is awesome! Great throwback!
Let’s throwback to 2003! Neon Media produced this awesome video entitled “Essence”. This era was a really progressive time for flatland. And a lot of times videos like this were the first time you saw the tricks some of these guys are doing. It’s fun to look back now and see how these riders styles and tricks have developed over the years. Go watch this, open your mind, maybe you’ll get some idea for something new for you to do today at your riding spot! Either way its a must watch!
Riders include James Kennedy (Cowboy squeak to halfpacker at 2:18), Gabe Kadmiri, Anthony Durbano, Erin Donato, Terry Adams, Ron Monis, Mickey Gaidos, Dave Petrin, Stephen Hearn, a young Terry Adams right as he was starting to blow up on the international contest scene, and Matt Wilhelm gets the final section.
Classic video from 1998 by Colin Smith. Featuring Mike S, James White, myself, Phil Dolan, Alexis Desolneux, Martti Kuoppa, Andrew Faris, Nathan Penonzek and many more, so much good footage from the Worlds in Portimao, KOC, and the Level Vibes!
This weeks Throwback Thursday with Paul Osicka. Check his section from Standard Country, this came out in 2000. Paul was hugely influential. For all the new cats who might not have seen this, watch all the walkaround squeaker stuff, flapjack combos, and the backwards g turn towards the end. Great track from EPMD. Groundbreaking!
The quality not being the greatest adds to nostalgia if you ask me. Nowadays of course with the advancements in technology, videos and edits are HD, but for years we did have that luxury. Check out this amazing footage from the Worlds 2000 from the old UK flat website! Featuring the likes of Viki Gomez walking around his bike flapjack style, Hiroya Morizaki in his Quamen days, Dan Rigby, Matti Rose, Yammer, Jimmy Petitet, and Mike S!
