From the BMX Freestyler Archives- Austin Flatlanders 2 Remixed
The Austin Flatlanders 2 Remixed was a turning point for BMX Freestyler. The first video Austin Flatlanders 2 received many comments back in the pedalbmx hay day. Many of the comments received were constructive criticism. Things have never been the same since that day. I will be pulling photos,interviews and of course videos from the BMX Freestyler archives on a regular basis along with new and exciting events that are happening.
Keep on Riding!

Fireworks Display in Austin,Texas
It was a typical Saturday Session at the Legendary Oltorf Garage when all of a sudden there was a very loud explosion. It didn't stop there. There were multiple explosions. To our surprise there was a fireworks display going on. It was very random we were all trying to figure out what the celebration was for and who was putting it on. Needless to say so was the Austin PD as we heard police sirens and fire trucks speeding to the location of the display. We all kind of sat back and enjoyed the display and even started riding underneath the burst of sparkles in the air. Stay tuned to some footage of this in the up and coming ATX Flatland Crew - February 2010
