In...History, indeed, seems to be repeating itself. In my more than 20 years in flatland with local and national comps, flatlanders are always the most fickle and vocal. It is just the nature of flatlanders, for some reason.<br /> <br />The only real way to have a flat comp is if it is organized by the riders or with mucho rider involvement. Otherwise people don't want to bear the brunt of criticism which they don't understand. "It's flat, what's the problem?"<br /><br />We don't just hit a ramp and trick. We repeat our combos for hours and it can be hard to adapt to different situations and handicaps. Ask Steve Swope about this...<br />~JVoodstochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12951649713640164785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2993606296984863193.post-63389209155459452962010-04-22T16:49:53.776-07:002010-04-22T16:49:53.776-07:00As I already mentioned on twitter, serious thought...As I already mentioned on twitter, serious thought should be given to trying to involve Relentless/TheOrder into Euro Flatland.<br /><br />TheOrder has a very defining and cohesive identity that strives for personal excellence. <br /><br />Just a thought, I have a lot of respect for what Relentless has done with TheOrder.

As martti stated he first competed in koln, in what is now the street area. It's a sad state of affairs and I honestly believe we have to take a look at ourselves. History is repeating itself. <br />I here a few German riders are organising a jam, which is admirable. But not the same.
