Flatland BMX - check this out

Me play X-games? Ha! I can’t hardly keep a dirtbike or bicycle upright, much less do tricks or win races. The last time I tried to ride my son’s JR-50 I about ran into a barbed wire fence.

Maybe that’s why I’m such a fascinated spectator - because I have all the grace of a bull in a china closet. One of my guy friends is really into BMX. I was watching a video with him recently, and it had a section on flatland BMX. Okay, I love watching skaters and BMXers on ramps. But take away the ramps, and the BMXers still have quite an art form going on.

It’s graceful, technical and requires a lot of skill and strength. And some of these guys aren’t little. That doesn’t make this sport any easier.

Anyway, check out the video I found on YouTube that shows some flatland BMXers. It’s worth watching.

Before you comment, please take a few moments to make sure that what you're saying is civil and respectful. We don't tolerate personal attacks, insults, name-calling, impersonations or generally hateful comments — they don't make for a pleasant (or productive) conversation. We want to raise the level of debate and encourage a wide diversity of viewpoints — and that means disagreeing without being disagreeable. If you wouldn't say it to your grandmother, you probably shouldn't say it here.
