When the BMX bikes roll down the Olympic BMX track in Beijing this summer there is a good chance that you will hear Kenan Harkin's voice as the TV commentator. Kenan does a lot of TV commentating these days. Kenan Harkin and Zach Shaw will celebrate their birthdays this week. Crazy actually when you think of it as Zach was the first one to pull a 360 backflip (the Zachflip) and Kenan started doing these soon after at contests in the USA which made people believe that he was the inventer of the trick. Let's drink one on these two this week and the invention of the 360 backflip.10 June 1971 - Zach Shaw
13 June 1974 - Kenan Harkin
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
