Thanks again to all the riders who made it down and thanks to all the sponsors, we will see you next year MLK Weekend.

FLAT SYSTEM 009: Tech tips on the Far East Freecoaster.
Here’s the word from Dub on Flat System 009, do you use a Far East free coaster? This episode is for you!
“It’s been a minute since the last episode, but better late than never so here we go again! So this episode of FLAT SYSTEM is more of a tech tip than a podcast or wtv these things are called!. Since many riders are now using the FEC Freecoaster hub as their engine of choice, especially in Flatland, it is my duty to make small tech tip videos on taking care of that engine! This one is about how to change your pawls and springs on the hub when you start having too much slippage! Let me know what you think, if this helps, or not and if you have any questions or suggestions on the next episode! You can find IGI and FEC parts information at www.igibmx.com, or on instagram at @igiflatbmx.”
