New Female Flatlander

Hello all! So after the Midwest BMX fest I decieded to get off my Arse and do something. So after watching some flatlanders I was in love! Now guess what I have my first flatland bike and I am trying tricks I am having trouble with the endo but working on it. I am thinking it should come easy but it doesn't. I have a blog that is showing my photos and telling why I started and such I just started riding tonight! So excited and hope I can meet new people to help me on here also!

Re: New Female Flatlander

Congrats and good luck!  A flatland bike is in my near future after watching one of our riders  do his thing a bunch of times, I'm always amazed @ the tricks he pulls.
As far as being a Woman in the sport, check our Sam Moodie who rides for us on Bulldog. She's not really a flat land rider, but does backflips and can out ride many guys. Here's a clip for inspiration http://m.youtube.com/watch?desktop_uri= … &gl=US


Having a bunch of nice bikes and not riding them is sort of like having a hott girlfriend and not banging her.....might be nice to look at but youre missing out on all the fun

Looking for : JW Pro stem,  Profile Pro or  DK Pro XL 1-1/8" Black stems  ( in New to Very Good Condition!!!!!)
1-800 Collect DK Padset  in Black (New)

Black ZERONINE fluted pads (the ones that had white snaps)

Re: New Female Flatlander

good stuff, nothing better than flowing flatland. keep at it, it hurts and will frustrate the hell out of you but one day something will click and you will be stoked.

Re: New Female Flatlander

Thanks I hope to update my blog with new things weekly.  I am not real tall I am only 5'4 lol my hubs was taking my photos from our deck. I hope you all keep checking back on my blog to see how I am doing. I have more purple parts on the way and white Tech 77 brakes along with clear break pads. I have heard that they are going to be very grippy. I am going to keep working on what I am and hope that soon I will  be able to get in some fork glides I hope!

That Opsis looks great, standardsweetie.  Give the endos a little time, you'll pick it up quick.
