Here’s Matthias Dandois once again blurring the line between flatland and street riding. This time, he even steps up his street game a notch with a couple grinders.
Was that a 720 cab he was trying at the end?!

ODSY VISION: Travel Log – New Mexico
Once upon a time in New Mexico, a handful of dudes in a giant van drove and flew thousands of miles in search of the perfect rail. With Jeff Z as the trusty tour guide, they discovered plenty of setups in a little sleepy town found in the state’s northern mountains. Justin Simpson, Gary Young, Sean Sexton and George Boyd were all aboard for the mission. Sean had the misfortune of piercing a giant hole in his knee within what was probably only 15 minutes of getting out of the van so he’s a little MIA in this video. Fortunately, our TM and all around shredder Jim Bauer was on hand to score some extra clips and annihilate the longest rail in sight. This is our latest ODSY Vision. Enjoy.
Make sure to pick up a copy of the latest Ride BMX to see even more photos and coverage.
Defgrip has a disposed gallery up as well that’s filled with behind the scene shots that Jim Bauer took.
Bonus Simpson Clip
Mutiny just posted this clip of Justin Simpson from their most recent trip to LA. Check back tomorrow for more motion picture goodness.
Justin Simpson Bike Check
It should be common knowledge by now that Justin Simpson is a beast on a bike. These photos were shot shortly after a heavy session went down on that rainbow rail behind him. Click around the flipbook to see how his Mutiny Loosefer is setup.
We’re dropping our latest ODSY Vision tomorrow, so start guessing in the comments on what went down at this spot!
AVAILABLE NOW: Flatware Vandero 2
With Flatland riders being very specific about parts and how they could help or hinder their performance, it was only a matter of time before we released a special flatland hub.
The Flatware Vandero 2 hub is based off our proven and trusted Vandero 2 hub, but has narrower flanges for foot/hand clearance and is flatland specific. This may sound like a minor feature, but it makes a huge difference when the rider’s feet/hands are in that area. The angled flanges on the Flatware hub are 52mm wide, which is over 10mm’s narrower than the Vandero 2 hub.
- 3/8’s Aluminum Female Axle with G-Sport bolts
- 36H only
- 8.9 OZ
- Black only
Available now.
USA dealers please contact QBP, SBS, Custom Cycle, J&B or Full Factory Distribution.
