Must Watch: James White/ Fifty Shades of White
As James White celebrates his 50th birthday, he does in it style with this amazing retrospective mix of his riding career so far, including input from the likes of Pete Brandt, Lincoln Blacksley, Amos Burke, Jesse Puente, Chase Gouin, Jason Forde, and many more. I am on the third watch now, and notice different things within his edit that had me stoked, and had me crying with laughter, straight up Flatland at it’s best!
There is only one edit to watch today!
Happy 50th birthday James!
Four Pegs BMX: The Attila Toth Interview
Intro/Interview: Effraim.
Photos: Attila Toth, Gilles van de Sompel, Krisztina Toth, Tyrone Kelly, Chad Degroot.
One of my favourite aspects of running Flatmattersonline, is definitely working on interviews and learning more about riders across the globe. More recently, I started to wonder about flipping that on it’s head, and finding out about flatland from an industry perspective.
Attila Toth runs Four Pegs BMX, and I was interested how he runs a flatland business in such difficult times. This is a lengthy interview, so grab a cuppa and enjoy some flatland industry talk….
His DIY aesthetic to running his own Flatland business really struck a chord with me. I wanted to know more, and rather than a rider interview, this goes more into the industry side of things even though of course Attila rides. As a second lockdown just hit here in the UK, it’s time to publish this interview and let the world know more about Four Pegs BMX and Attila Toth!
Rodney Williams: One foot Cowboy Flips
Rodney Williams just brought back a lot of memories with this one, Rodney makes the one footed Cowboy flips easy. These are not easy, don’t believe me? Go try it… Rodney shows us all love here all Flatmattersonline, it’s time to show it back!!
Throwback Thursdays: KGB Impulsivity 2008
As we approach our 12th anniversary, let’s go back twelve years and to a video many consider the best ever done. The KGB Impulsivity featuring Martti Kuoppa, Viki Gomez and Pete Brandt, and produced by Intrikat ticks all the boxes. It’s time to watch this back, and take in the madness all over again.
This made me think did we really progress in riding, perhaps in style and flow yes. But tricks? And in this video, all the riders using brakes. Let me know your thoughts, perhaps this is a good article topic for the future?
Sakuma: King of Ground Asakusa 2003
Unique flatland styles from Sakuma at the King of Ground in Asakusa, Japan. Some of you will remember this dude from the Diversion video magazine!
RL Osborn: Morning Flatland Ride N’Chill
Lockdown 2 is in full flow here in the UK,so I find myself watching videos I might not normally watch. This being a case right here, featuring the one and only RL Osborn who has been causing quite a commotion online recently. Great to see RL is still out there riding after all these years!
