Red Bull have developed a new social platform called ‘Flow’ and is the best place to share and discover BMX clips. The app is available for Android & iPhone, and I'm hoping it might be up your street? Red Bull Flow is a new kind of video platform built specifically for people who love to ride and film BMX clips. Using the Red Bull Flow app, add tags, and instantly view them as collaborative edits - Flows – on the Flow site or in the app. The thinking behind the app first and foremost is a reaction to
the endless videos on YouTube and videos uploaded to Facebook from riders uploading one trick or line to share with friends, rather than edits. They get lost almost instantly down their timelines on Facebook and are swallowed by the sea of similar edits on YouTube, picking up very very few views. As a result, we wanted to create a platform to share and view these one trick or line clips online and through the app. Users can find their own clips, or clips they've filmed, or that of fellow riders with ease and see all that footage instantly either on the site or through the app while out riding.
You can see how Flow works and read more about it here.
It’d be awesome if you could download it too, check it out a bit and see what you think? The app is currently UK only, but anyone around the world can view the content on the site.

As well as being a useful tool for filming, it's also a fantastic hub of great BMX content, with bangers from Kris Kyle, Ben Lewis and Mike 'Jersey' Taylor already on the site.

After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
