HERESY ZEPHYR TYRE from HERESY BMX on Vimeo.
I posted this promo for the new Heresy Zephyr tyre a few days ago on instagram, I am hearing lots of great things about this product. And Sebastian Grubinger throws down a heavy back wheel line for this, with Sevisual on the editing, you will not want to miss.
Ever wonder what happened to Seppl Pospischil? I’ve been curious a bunch of times when I see random clips pop up time to time from the early 2000 era. Seppl explains all below, great to see him riding and more importantly, enjoying himself…
“In fact, the last three years of riding BMX have been an emotional roller coaster. I’ve had back problems for a long time (who doesn’t have them) and a hip damage in between, which fortunately has healed. At the beginning of 2020 I destroyed my shoulder after I was finally fit again with my back. I used the break to clean up my archive and found various unpublished material (180+ clips!). In addition, I had to realize that I’m about to celebrate my 25th BMX anniversary in the BMX year 2020. So what could be more obvious than making a video out of the material?
To see the thing finished now has a “treat”. Serious flatland riding has unfortunately not been possible for a long time. But my back allowed me to cruise around in skateparks and on pumptracks. Often, against better knowledge, my ego came through, which was promptly acknowledged with lumbago. You just have to listen to your body more and switch to vacation mode if necessary. I had to learn that first. My kids and my wife are mainly responsible for the good vibes in the video. They forced me in front of the camera on our trips, even if I sometimes didn’t want to. For that a big THANK YOU and therefore also the home video character in one place or another 😉
Many thanks also go to SIBMX / Bodo Hellwig for 17 years of excellent support. And I would also like to thank Ali from Moto for the pedals and the kunstform BMX Shop for everything else.
Somehow this video comes full circle. 25 years ago I started BMX as a youngster in the skate park, now I’m back with my two boys. Let’s see what the future will bring … I’m definitely up for it!
Cheers
Seppl Pospischil

More amazing footage from the King of Ground, this time up it’s the turn of Matt Wilhelm doing it for Fly Bikes back in 2003. Feel the energy in Matt’s riding and the crowd, amazing!
It is mad quiet for content right as the second lockdown hits here in the UK to try and tackle the pandemic. Let’s kick things off today, with this amazing footage from the KOG archives. Simon O’Brien goes off at the KOG Asakusa 2003. So much hard shit in this run, don’t miss this!

Spooky Halloween vibes from Heresy’s George Manos in this new “ABYSSEROS” video, always good to see what George is up to over in Greece.

Exciting news dropped the other day, Varo Hernandez has really stepped up his game in 2020. And got a well deserved spot on the We the People team. I got in contact with Varo (and WTP), and asked him for the official word before I published the news, here it is. Congratulations Varo!
Varo:
I am so stoked to join such a great company! I just came back from my second session with the prototype of the new Utopia Hybrid frame and it feels fantastic, super balanced and reactive.
Wethepeople is back to the flat game strong, they already have two super talented and young riders in the team, Keiryo and Julien, and soon they will release a whole new flatland line that I can’t wait to come out!
WTP:
Welcome to the Wethepeople familia Varo Hernandez 🥂
Hailing from Madrid, Spain, Varo is one of the most dialled and stylish Flatlanders emerging into the scene right now. We’re excited to add Varo to the Utopia squad with fellow new-school flatland rippers Julien and Keiryo.
Varo is riding a sample of our new #UtopiaHybrid frame which will be dropping with a full revamp to our Flatland aftermarket line in a few weeks time.
The 2020 Nora Cup Flatlander of the Year, Terry Adams is on a tear this year, TA just dropped this latest instagram complication documenting his progression. After a couple of days off updating the site, what a way to get back into the swing of things.
