6 South west OG's who've been riding together for over 20 years hit the road to sample some of the uk's finest indoor skateparks. Got in a session with the legendary Tom Justice at The Asylum which was an absolute treat! Thanks again Tom! This is my first video where I have made the entire thing, both music and video. Super stoked!

The UCI Urban Cycling World Championships in Abu Dhabi delivered days filled with BMX Freestyle action, starting with extended practice sessions and elimination rounds in BMX Park and Flatland. By the final day, despite a slightly shorter schedule, the intensity remained high. With the Women’s Flatland Finals kicking off at 9:00 AM and the Men’s Park podium ceremony scheduled for 8:30 PM, it was another packed day of competition. Watching the world’s top athletes compete in the Flatland and Park finals made every moment worth it.
The morning began with a challenge: overnight dew had transformed the flatland platform into a slick surface, requiring extensive squeegee work to prepare the course in time for the Women’s Flatland Final. The event became a fierce contest between nations, with Hungary and Japan each fielding two riders in the finals. While the Japanese riders entered as top qualifiers, Hungary’s competitors weren’t backing down. A surprising off-day for top qualifier Kirara Nakagawa (JPN) saw her finish in fourth, paving the way for Hungary’s Anna Mondics and Veronika Kadar to secure podium finishes. Veronika delivered an impressive run to take second place, but Japan’s Ayuna Miyashima claimed the top spot, becoming the 2024 UCI BMX Flatland World Champion.
In the Men’s Flatland Final, the stakes were high as eight riders vied for the title. The talent on display electrified the crowd, with flawless execution being the key to victory.

Kairi Yamada joined the Fit Familia in 2020 after earning the ultimate VOUCH from Van "Mother F'n" Homan. Van, who had spend the two years leading up to the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games living in Japan and regularly riding the Bashi Burger ramps, was impressed with the then 9-year-old and wanted to hook him up. Well, four years later... it looks like the Homanator knew what he was doing.

For 2025 we're doing things differently. Your brand can pick a month to become an exclusive FATBMX advertiser. All main banners will be yours. The backgrounds will be yours. The month you pick will be focused on your brand. Your riders will be interviewed that month. Your products will be featured that month. Your (archived) videos will make it on FATBMX that month. Basically, it's all about you and your brand.
But there are only 12 months in a year. And whoever claims a month, will get it.
