1:55 is a guy doing like 5 boomerangs in a row like it's no sweat.


What keeps this from being cool to me is how they hold their arms all stupid in the air.

Its Flatland for the "Classical" (those that can't handle BMX bikes, gnarly tat's, jeans and sh*t talk) They should wear Lulu Lemon wear to look cooler when riding. ;D

Kunst receives amazing funding and support, maybe even better than Flatland BMX.

"KunstForm" that's a good name to fool people, or makes sense in that part of the world for marketing and dealing outside the BMX community for interest/exposure.

Yeah, it's crazy that there's guys SPONSORED by companies like SE for "fixie freestyle" who can barely do infinity rolls and meanwhile in Europe years ago this stuff was going on.  I don't think I've ever seen someone do a barride barspin to backwards barride to barspin to regular barride.  If someone did those tricks at a major contest chances are they'd place pretty highly I would think.
