About 30 riders came to Austria for the Vienna Jam. The weather was great and there were many spectators since the jam was part of a big Bicycle Festival in the city. Viki took the first place at the Best Trick contest. Congratulations!

Thanks to Alberto Moya for dropping us this new edit of Matthieu Bonnecuelle. He visited Madrid last month and they filmed at different spots. It's a nice little edit, with an artistic touch - just like Matthieu. Enjoy!
Sebastian cleaned up his computer harddrive and came across some unused clips which were too good to be deleted. Enjoy the 2018 out-take collection! For most of us those tricks would be a dream come true instead of leftovers ;-)

Shaun Jarvis documented his trip to Japan with the Freestyle Now crew in 2018. The full movie is 2h long but there is a lot of riding and impressions from Japan in it. Check Shaun‘s comment for a few more details:
„In October 2018 Freestyle now headed to Japan to attend the legendary Flatark contest. With flight all book the contest was cancelled a few weeks prior the date, so it was still all systems go to head to Japan and go on a riding holiday. Freestyle Now squad members Shaun Jarvis and Paul Chamberlain headed from both sides of Australia while Dez Maarsen travelled from his home in The Netherlands. Meeting them in Kobe was Freestyle Now recruits rider and Osaka resident Naotada Yamada. Shaun Jarvis documented the 10 day trip with making a video of each of the day’s activities and riding. It was an awesome time with so much riding going on almost every day. The video highlights the Spaceark jam that happened in Kobe which took place due to Flatark not happening, and the Freestyle Now jam that took place the day after at Nagai Park in Osaka. So much great riding. Also there are many riders from around the world who also were riding in Japan as well as so many of the Japanese bmx flatland riders. Give it a watch to see some amazing bmx flatland.“
Riders: Joel Schallhorn, Naoto Tamaru, Masato Ito, Dez Maarsen, Dan Hennig, Benjamin Hudson, Jorrit van Drumpt, Paul Chamberlain, Shaun Jarvis, Minato Sato and York Uno
This is probably the first alpine flatland edit. Matthias and his video crew filmed at 10000 feet in freezing cold weather on a frozen flatland spot. If you watched the little teaser clip then you already know that a lot of blood and tears went into this one (but probably no sweat).
