Barcelona Flow – Jakub + Diego

This video made me wanna RIDE. Jakub aka Fixie Transformer aka French Fixedgear Federation aka #1 Trick Track rider in the world made his way to Barcelona to meetup with the Ephemeral Gang and the results are some A++ content. Jakub riding spots is a thing of beauty and Diego is getting really comfortable on the 26″ bike, which makes me really happy to see. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE watching him ride the Bombtrack track bike (which he does for a bit in this video), but there’s only so much you can do on flat ground. The 26″ is really elevating his riding as a whole and he’s now becoming a master of both.

Some moments that really stuck out for me were 2:58 (beautiful use of a flat rail), 4:25 (great spot usage and display of bike control), and 4:44 (incredible spot usage and creativity). I can’t wait to go on a trip and ride with my friends soon, this video makes me wanna go NOW.

Off Track Ep. 27 – TOM MOSHER

In today’s episode we got the honor to speak with one of the founding fathers of our sport, Tom Mosher! I was watching Tom’s bike checks, edits, and tutorials while I was just a wee fixie lad in high school 12+ years ago, so it was an absolute pleasure to have him in our virtual studio. We had so much to talk about and seemed to hardly scratch the surface, so I’d encourage you to check out the Patreon bonus episode to check out the extended discussion. Enjoy!

Aussie Boys – Summer With A Chance Of Fixie

Highly entertaining c o n t e n t. Our boy Max got himself a dad cam recently so here’s the first result of that purchase. This is some high level fixie entertainment and it only makes me more excited for future dad cam videos to come. Praise fixie jesus for bringing us content not filmed on an iphone 🙏

JOHNATHAN BALL – WANING 2024

Whats up. It’s been a long time coming. I premiered a nearly finished version of this video 6 months ago at Suck My Comp 6, so I”m a bit bummed it took this long to round out.

Overall though, I’m pretty happy with how this one turned out. Web edits in FGFS are rare these days, so I’m satisfied that I’m able to keep up a roughly once a year cadence. A lot of the clips took a long time, and a lot of clips were filmed during periods where I haven’t been riding my bike as much as I would’ve liked, so there was a lot of de-rusting going on. That being said though, there’s some tricks I’m really proud of throughout this one. Even though the ending tricks were a little lighter than I’m used to for myself, injuries plagued the filming of this and I decided to cut my losses and finish it off with what I had. It’s nearly 6 minutes of footage anyways, so I can’t complain too much.

I’ve already begun filming for a new project that I can’t talk about yet. So even though this video’s theme is all about sunsetting, I’m not done just yet. Anyways, I really hope you enjoy it and leave a comment if you did. Big thanks to all my friends who held a camera for me throughout.
