Two Flatland Assassins, Chris Young & Pete Brandt took over the Clocktower in San Francisco, California recently for a session in the Fall whilst Chris was in town. Flatland is all about different styles, and friends pushing each other, and this comes through right here with Chris’ glass smooth flow across the granite marble riding surface, and Pete’s attack mode on both and front/back wheel make this one a fun watch, look out for Pete’s last line at 2:58!
Joe Cicman: Like Heaven 2022
It’s Flatland Assassin Friday today on FM, first up this great edit from Flatland Meme master, Joe Cicman! Joe is a master of multiple hitch jugglers, multiple Jaffa whips (love the line at 1:57!), and looks like he’s been putting in a lot of work dialling in his original lines at the Terradome this past year. I’ve often thought about having an edit with one set camera angle, Joe’s done. Kudos Mr Cicman, go watch this one!

Hang 5 Podcast Episode 27: Anatole Rahain

Episode 27 of the hang 5 Podcast just dropped, over to Francois Debroux to let you know more….
“For this episode, I sat down with French young gun Anatole Rahain. One of the up and coming riders on the pro flatland scene. Anatole has been riding for 10 years, turned pro a couple of years back and has a few international podiums under his belt. A few months back he decided to be a full time rider and is supporting himself through shows and contests winnings. While mostly known as a contest rider, he is also active with the flatland association in his native region of Normandy promoting flatland and with the organization of the annual Astrolab contest. He is hungry, working hard at honing his skills and wants to take flatland to new heights. Here is his story.”

Enjoy!
