i think that is the best i have ever seen him ride! on the flat anyways

not sure how competitive he would have been at the time, but that is some top old school flatland

There's somethin' about watchin' a true professional at work that does it for me. He's just so smooth and controlled and obviously at one with the bike - most of the flatland "pros" of today would laugh at this, but then, I think that's the problem with flatland today - too damn serious and too damn technical. Nobody can relate to it anymore.
I have to say that I think Fiola shows what bmx is really about - enjoying yourself and doing it with style.

Brilliant...

Loving the Moonwalk...

I frickin' love that.... Possibly the coolest flatland trick I've ever seen!
I always show people who aren't into BMX that clip ....
It's perfection :4_17_5: :coolsmiley: :smitten:
