I'm throughly confused by Alain's last statement

I work for bmx since 15 years and I going to stop soon. I'm happy for Cream, the Flatring and the Flatkings book, but now I can't do more. I think the flatland have no future. The flatlanders ride for contest only and not for fun, it sucks. If the mentality don't change, the flatland will be dead soon....

 :huh:

p.s alain isnt related to manu (cuzs manus awsome haha)

Major drama going on right here
at least he's not bullsh*tn' around

VVV




Who rides with you?
I rode with Raphael Chiquet but now he is busy (and he's no more my friend) and I don't like to ride alone then I don't ride. I like to ride with the japan riders, it's my style of riding.

Are you sponsored? What company?
No more. I don't ride enough to be sponsored even I'm always in the event, I don't want to ride for something. I had lot of sponsor when I was pro but I was very fake. I want to ride for fun not for money, I'm free ! And I was fired from Koxx for nothing, this f*cking company don't respect the riders and it's why don't want ride anymore...

From what I understand, something very big that was taken very personal went down, and it's better we know less about it since it's not our business to begin with. Just let sleeping dogs lie.

I agree with alot of what he says but saying he doesnt like to ride alone so he wont ride is f*cking weak.
