It’s another good day for edits! It is always a treat to see Jody Temple ride, and thankfully Jody recovered from his back injury that plagued him for the last year or so. There aren’t too many riders riding two front brakes anymore, Jody works this to full advantage, Jody kills multiple hang five bar flip variations but perhaps my favourite was the opposite xft hang five bar flip to bars backwards hang five one handed whip out at 2:07! Well worth a watch for sure!
2:05 Jody came to my jam in 2016 and I filmed that clip for his edit..First time I ever got to session with him…Miss our chats and texts brother, wish you were still.with us.Glad we got to ride in Cali in 2023..Ride in peace!
Mad respect to you Adam for your sharing this . You’re a rad rider/ person. I only got to meet ,session and hang out with Jody once in New Orleans @ the 2017 BMX Flatland Voodoo Jam. I had been a fan of his riding since his flap jack , left cross elephant switch lines ,riding his red Sabbath frame. We had a rad session @ the pre-jam . I was shocked how long he could coast backwards manuals among all his other original lines. We walked together to the corner store right by the hotel that night and Jody joked , pulled out a tea leaf of ” Athen’s finest ” as he said , haha….and chatted about Flatland and me talking about his riding , 1998 , 1997 lines he used to do. He was so damn laid back and funny as hell .( especially that morning @ the breakfast table with all the riders that attended that year. He could say anything with a straight ” serious ” face , haha. ) Jody was one of those riders who I was as stoked on him as a person as I was his riding. We F.B. chatted here and there , he was so focused on his progression on his bike……yet again , still so funny / chill. I’ll miss him and will cherish all his videos parts ….especially the 1997 lines that Cicman had posted on Scuffington Post. I’ll never forget those three days we rode bikes , hung out , laughed ( alot. ) and talked about Flatland……you rule , Jody.
