Mateus Beckmann: Front Brake Prodigy
« on: February 09, 2013, 02:56:58 AM »

This young rider is the definition of prodigy. He put on a front brake and learned an edit’s worth of new tricks in just a few days. I’ve never seen anything like that. His switch foot pedal- and rocket-nosewheelies to boomerang are almost as insane as his steamboat to 540(!) barflip pivot into halfpacker at 2:27…in the pouring rain and done in no space at all. Dude is making some serious moves!

I'm a little surprised this isn't getting more feedback than "like", to be completely frank. This kid is probably the most talented up-and-coming flatland rider in the world, and I'm totally stoked on him. By the way, I've chatted a bit with him tonight, and soon he will show even more tricks, with a new edit. This next time, brakeless. Dude's a master in the making, just watch.  :beer:

Must respect for showing his abilities and determination to have fun with flatland. I like how he shows his falls, because sometimes we forget the steps between thinking about a trick and showing the final product.

I'm so jealous to watch that but i'm happy too to know the Simon o'Brien's style continue to make influence in the world!

Nice edit.

 Great stuff Mateus!


 Really like when riders explore all the different styles of riding, and come up with some difficult and original switches.
