you really get the time when flatland was at his best, before that was not as technical and after (now) it's boring, to technical especially with the new trend to be brakeless, everything look so less fluid they all seems to be about to fall all the time.
@F3FisGoodforYou I agree, and I don't think brakeless riding looks as good. I'm sure it's far more difficult, but using brakes makes for smoother riding. Brakeless decades look like when I did them years back when my brakes didn't work! (I'm not talking about rolaids, I'm talking stand-still decades) You can also do a LOT more tricks.
i would love to see all the footage you have of all the contests in this video!
