Unleash the BMX flatland magic of the Windy City with Matt Wilhelm at Chicago's Urban Playground. Real-life footage combined with the latest AI technology to spice things up with some cyperpunk style.

Chicago is a vibrant city known for its diverse culture and iconic skyline. It also offers a wealth of attractions and activities. Red Bull Flight Champion, Guinness World Record Holder, X Games Medalist and America's Got Talent BMX Flatland Rider Matt Wilhelm will show you the city like you have never seen it before.

Flatland BMX is a discipline that focuses on performing tricks and maneuvers on a flat surface, showcasing a combination of balance, creativity, and technical skill.

This short edit is a little souvenir from my trip through the USA and Canada a few weeks ago. If you haven't seen the vlog about this trip yet, be sure to check it out, you can find it here: • Das unglaublichst... .
