It's no secret that Felix Prangenberg is one of the top street riders out there right now, but apart from his incredible abilities on a bike you might not be too clued up with what makes the young German tick.
It's hard to find a more motivated rider than Jean-William Prevost. Flatland riders in general are the ones putting in the most time on their bike. Riding has become their religion and the urge to go to church (their flatland spot) is there constantly. The creative mind is used to come up with tricks that have never been done before that fits their style. Dub is a master in it. Last call for Dub right here......

Algo de lo que hemos filmado en estos duros meses de cuarentena, Pero siempre manteniendo la esencia callejera en alto.
Some riders can simply do it all. They're good at anything without trying, or at least it looks like it comes naturally to them. Dennis Enarson is one, but the Australian version is Boyd Hilder for certain. Park, Street, Bowls, and just let's throw Dirt in there for good measure, as we're sure he would shred on that terrain too. Check what Boyd has been up to lately by reading his Last Call.... list below.
Last car you bought?
Boyd Hilder: 2000 Hiace 3 years ago for 3 grand. Still so stoked on it.
Last music concert you went to?
For years the FATBMX PIN*UP made its presence on the FATBMX site. We're happy to inform you that it's back.
The girls of today go to the same tanning salon as Mr. President so they look a bit orange, just like the GT Performer bike they're posing with.
Did you notice the bike has no brake cables?
Our DIG Locals series is usually reserved for unsponsored riders, but Colombia's Santiago Laverde sent through this one from pre-covid time and a trip to France that himself and a bunch of friends from back home took. Nothing but good vibes.

THE BIG DAWG VS THE ONE AND ONLY JOJO! This game had a few hiccups early on with the rain and some injuries but in the end, WE MADE IT WORK! Stoked on how this came out. Tune in next week for game FOUR! Adem Gunaydin VS. Jeff Gentry at Walker Mill Skatepark!
Nothing beats hitting some unfamiliar streets with your homies and seeing what you find. Putting in the work to discover new spots is fun and feels super rewarding when you uncover a gem.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
