Respect to all women , all classes of all these U.C.I. events. Rad lines on their bikes , great style . I can’t remember her name ….she went to the 2015 Flatland Voodoo Jam in New Orleans with Hiroki Uchiyama and another rider from Japan. I met the 3 of them and it’s the first time I saw the 3 of them ride. This lady was RAD on her bike . I was judging expert class with Dub , Todd Carter . She did a hitchhiker juggler line with ZERO speed , fully controlled , smooth….she ended the line with a stylish squeaker -X-up slider /revert . It was her last line in her run . She placed high and the three of us (judges. ) we , and the whole venue went ape ( cheering ,standing up . ) after her run . She is a good representation of the level of today’s 2024 women BMX Flatlanders. Can’t remember her name , though . She was also very humble and Hiroki and the other dude and her , we all chatted Flatland in my hotel room after the finals. It was cool . The two dudes ( Hiroki Uchiyama and the other dude, can’t remember his name either. ) The four of us had a rad chat , Japanese to english translation about Flatland , the contest , and their travel….. being hers , Hiroki’s and the other dudes first time to the U.S……..anyway, sorry about the long rant , haha…..again , mad RESPECT to all women riders……
