About Me

I started riding flatland in 1986. The first trick I learned was an endo back in 1984 on a Ross Pirahna. Endos are still kinda fun! I used to ride mini and parks but got re interested in FLATLAND about 8 years ago. I've been sticking to flatland and just enjoying progressing more than competing. I'm horrible in the air, so I'll stick to the ground! I have a FREE internet radio station called MR. TREATS BEATS on www.live365.com HIP HOP and Electronic BEATS for FREE! You can find a link for it in my blog, then you can just CLICK the link and check it out!!!! It's totally FREE! My hobbies are: Cats, Reptiles, and fish, video producing, editing, and shooting. I also collect urban vinyl toys, shoes, and bike parts. Sometimes I work on my bike more than I would like, and things seem to go in phases! Thanks for checking out my profile! Keep bustin and stop worrying about what everybody else is sayin and doin. FOLLOW YOUR OWN PATH - Style Is Strong! PEACE

Switch footed elbow glide OR $200!


This is a quick web video I made to fill my end of loosing a bet. I bet Robert Castillo, that my favorite NBA team, the Orlando Magic would win against his favorite NBA team, the San Antonio Spurs. The winner got to come up with a trick for the looser to learn, and the looser was given 2 weeks to learn it and get it on video, and email it to the winner.... or pay $200! I planned to honor this bet but I also felt very confident I could learn the switch footed elbow glide, even though I had never done one. I have done them with my regular foot for years, but switch footed means balancing with your oppisite leg! If you can do a hang five, try standing on the opposite leg and balance with your other leg, your weak and uncoordinated leg! Ha Ha! It's not easy, and my elbow got bruised right away, because the seat hits just above your funny bone, and you know how bad that hurts! So the footage in this video was shot at Cirque Du Soleil where my friend Marcos Paulo De Jesus rides and practices on his days off and after and inbetween his Cirque shows 5 days a week. The floor is hard rubber with a softer coating of black shiny rubber over that. Kind of slow, but a lot of fun. This was my first time riding in this spot, and it was definitely a challenge! I'm excited to go back and see if I can figure out the surface a little better! I'm stoked I don't owe Robert $200 but even happier about learning a trick I had never worked on before! It's an interesting way to learn something new for sure! Enjoy the vid! Kip
BIG FOOT FLATLAND


I had plenty of time between demos at the FL STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL to ride some flatland on the flatbottom of the vert ramp. The problem is, it's only 16ft wide, slick as hell, and bounces like a trampoline! Not to mention you always have at least 100 sets of eyes on you anytime you're on your bike! If you are anything like me, you would rather just ride and set the bullshit aside! So here's a little something I was able to get on video! Who am I.... the emcee.
