Use “BMX Flatland Events” to search the Internet & you’ll discover a worldwide network of events & websites, some featuring video highlights from past “bicycle jams”. BMX flatland is art – like poetry, ballet, figure skating & break-dancing. It inspires a special passion among those devoted to it. I discovered it accidentally. Other interviews & slow-motion “tutorial” highlights will follow.

Ya you don’t need a bike that cost a ton of money. Matter fact those expensive bikes sometimes feel way too light, especially for someone starting out. I think the most important things are the entire wheel, not just the tire but also the rim? (very straight) and a good hub.
dude if u love flatland u ride with what u got i got 35 pounds and i still ride my bike it really good well am good but cousin has the knew dk opsis bike flatland whis? is fucking light i love it but what i got is what i got
I’m glad that is the case. This took two cameras & about four hours videotaping. then I spent about six hours editing & subtitling it. That’s a lot of work for a few minutes of video.? It’s really disappointing when you don’t get many hits.
btw, this sport started with some really crappy bikes. making lemonade out of lemons. keep riding. its all possible, just? takes time.
been a while since i been on, good amount of? hits on the vid, awesome.
can u give a bike
ilove bmx flatland
my is to? heavy i cant play much more
cool video,im 44 and have? been in love with bmx flatland since 1980 and do still ride,although my body isnt what it used to be LOL,anyways im real happy to see all these young new rider’s keepin it alive….someday FLATLAND WILL GET THE RESPECT IT DESERVES.
haha yeah man? in canada its to cold to do shit 2/$ of the yeah it blows
don’t worry about it, it takes like 30 seconds to type a response, and it’s worthwhile? if i get the chance to help someone out.
ohhh cool 🙂 i hope i’m not bothering you writting all the time to you, sorry if? it does 😉
ummm i spend about 1/3 of my riding time each day on? tricks i can already do to warm up, then i work the rest of the time on 1-2 tricks that i can’t do.
btw one curiosity question, when u practice do you try just one trick at the time, i mean until u learn it with the ride in and ride out for go to? the next trick, or you try like different?? coz i think i’m going lineal and that is bad, will be going slow and i get bored fast one day doing the same…i think i should change every once in a while 😛
ohh young blood:P being at ur age is cool,coz i dont’ know…now that i’m more in flatland is kinda late,i’m almost 22 as u see u have the change to be a pro in 6 years, when i will say that i just? learned a fork glide at that age:P i’m trying now the ride out of the fork glide,it’s hard,coz when i jump (and i do it falling over the pegs soft) i make it almost a side-fall with me in first and behind the bike,damn almost i die:P might u help me in some future when i will have questions about F?:D
haha i don’t have any videos…but yeah i know what? you mean, each new trick you can land makes you happy. i’m only 16 but i’ve been riding for about just 4 months under 1 year!
ohhh thxs for the? reply :), i don’t know why but i wrote one comment and it never appeared 🙁 i checked ur tricks on youtube, coz i don’t know by their names, maybe just the megaspin,damn u r learning really cool tricks 🙂 i can’t wait for impress someday myself 😛 coz so far i can do the ride in of the fork glide and i’m so happy, is like an inside happyness,i guess u got the same so u know what i mean ^^ btw how old r u?
there are difficult parts of every discipline of bmx, but flatland, from a PURELY technical standpoint it is undoubtedly the hardest discipline. it takes a? lot of drilling and technique to learn tricks as well as a lot of ingenuity and expression to put together good links with style.
and i wanted to ask you sth more but i run out of characters remaining in the last comment :P, do u consider flatland the hardest area in bmx’s sports? i heard it one time, i mean not that if u know it u can do the other? very easy, but in the meaning of that is the one that takes longer to learn the tricks, is that right or no so much?
after about 2-3 years you could be riding some impressive tricks. right now i’ve been riding for just under a year, and i’m learning backwards halfhikers, mccircles, and megaspins, and if winter hadn’t robbed me of my riding area i would probably be able to do? at least one of those tricks by now.
ohh yeah i understand that for different ppl take different times, but you know i’m almost in the age of getting a job with my dyplom and soon i might not have the time as i do now, so i wanted to know if flatland (which i love it so much) will be in some way not slooooow to learn, i know is hard, but i don’t? wanna ride for 10 years for know one trick,but i got now ur answer so i guess i have an idea of how much could take to me(i ride a lot so i hope it will be fine :P)
