My former neighbor and good friend was a sponsored BMX rider back in the 90s. Got back into it in his 40s when i lived beside him. Needless to say he opened my eyes to a whole new fascinating world.
I hope you picked up the hobby, it's honestly so fun, & I've met some of the most loyal friends through this hobby of misfits! 😆 I'm 49,& still ride a few times a week, with my 9yo son now, which is awesome, & still work on the industry, but now testing ebikes, instead of bmx grants. Lol
I haven't rode in 26 years, I'm buying my Haro Lineage 26" at 51. Age is what you make it. I broke my Redline landing gear forks right in front of Eddie Fiola, trying to copy his power slide 360. He thought it was cool how I bounced into a endo.😂
I seen Eddie all the way over in Northern Ireland at the Carrickfergus leisure centre I believe 1984.... A 12 year old me was in awe seeing a legend from magazines I owned and all the way from America... I believe Eddie was the only American to ever come to Northern Ireland... especially during our troubles. Respect and gratitude brother after 40 years ❤
I am Irish-American, but 1st generation, & were from Dublin,& it's SO HARD to see, & for others to understand what's going on over there, I'm ½ Irish(Dad) ½ Scottish (Mom), & my Dad would ALWAYS tell me to; "Never claim my Scottish side ", & then my Mom saying the opposite, Mom lost out, I feel WAY more Irish in my soul, than a Scot! 😆
Wow that was a hard fall. Only a true master could take a fall like that and end up with minimal injuries. Glad you’re ok. Ride on King Eddie, Respect!
Eddie is such a great guy , back in 1989 I had the pleasure of working at a booth at the cavalcade of customs car show in Cincinnati , Ohio , my boss knew Eddie well & he sat at our booth & just chilled with us , I seen him take a taser to his leg just to see how it felt , freaking hilarious , he was sitting to my left when he did this , I even had the chance to ride along side of him when work slowed down , very cool guy .
It's all fun and games until someone get hurt. Some great tricks loved seeing this. Sorry that happened but let me know if you put some scabs on RadDesigns! ! Thanks for the video that Torker is swweeeeeet.
The Banana Man was my favourite bmx'er back in the day. I remember when the World Championships were held at Greenhams BMX track in Hounslow, UK and Eddie killed it on his yellow GT.
I can relate,We are old no we did get famous now is my time still cool in my own skin and killing it .. Paying all my bills and still confident in my own skin 🎉🎉🎉
Man...that looks like a great time...hated to see you go down like that...scabs....great name for beef jerky...stay Rad man and I'll see you in Ohio in June
Wait a minute....Is this the same Eddie Fiola from back in the day? Rode for Torker and Haro? I've been riding since those days too and I've never stopped either. I ride mountain bikes now. DH and E-MTB. Glad to see you still love bikes!
My latest video daughter cut her foot on a slide we just bought her ! Man they left a little layer all the way down of over hang vinyl she split her toe almost in half brutal ! Sad !
Rad stuff but dude, be careful out there. I'm a few years younger than you but not as in good a shape and a crash like that could end me or keep me from doing my house chores for a few weeks.

as a modern day bmx rider, it sure is fascinating to see freestyle like this!
Nice one EF!! Hope you're ok. Looking forward to part two!
We don't recover as fast as we did 30 years ago. We know it won't slow you down.
Wow that was a hard fall. Only a true master could take a fall like that and end up with minimal injuries. Glad you’re ok. Ride on King Eddie, Respect!
Generous of you to take that spill and give us hope that even the Eddie Fiolas of the world tweak every now and then. 🤙
I was visiting Pomona Fair Grounds back in the early 90s and he autographed my shirt. I also met him at Pipeline in Montclair California. The BMX dude

Good old school freestyle. Brought back so many memories of myself yrs back when I rode. 👍🏼

Looked like an amazing day! Hope you're feeling better for the rest of it Eddie. The fall looked nasty, ouch..
The Banana Man was my favourite bmx'er back in the day. I remember when the World Championships were held at Greenhams BMX track in Hounslow, UK and Eddie killed it on his yellow GT.
Whoa!!! Rad video despite the spill at the end. Hope you're feeling better!!!
This sound track during the flatland part is awesome.
I can relate,We are old no we did get famous now is my time still cool in my own skin and killing it .. Paying all my bills and still confident in my own skin 🎉🎉🎉
I'm so glad you are OK Eddie. We are not young, so falls are worse now. Feel better and stay Radd 💯👉

First time viewer...and an instant subscriber! Eddie has aged like the Alpha that he is. Salute!
You guys and your old balls still shredding 👍🚲 FYI I'm part of the old balls club myself.
Hey Eddie,differance between now and back then is,our palms used to hit first lol sorry about that spill.You have my 56 year old respect. Lol
The movie Rad needs to be dusted off and played now after watching you guys!
So cool!
Yowza! Dang, man. Face plants are no bueño, for sure. Hope you're all good dude.
Love this, soo much fun! Heal fast Eddie...
Would love to have attended this event but I’m in the Uk, where it’s cold and windy.
Damn that's embarrassing, poor Eddie not only fell, but pooped his pants in front of everyone too. Nasty 😅 💩
Rock on, Eddie! 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Some great riding,I'm 44 been into freestyle all my life but still have never gotten a chance to go to any type of event looks like an awesome time
Yeah and I can’t help him because I am in Florida with a broken arm…..the glues at home babe!
Supercross , fiola dirt jumper, in yellow 🟡 of course 👍😁.
Not sure ive seen Eddie have an accident like..ever..lol..He's such a master at those old tricks it just dont happen
78f is warm but I'd probably still have 2 layers on haha
@15:38 It's called "theme music" Eddie 😂
love ya!
My cousin had that same torker way back. It was so light.
The bikes now adays are getting crazy! The box to ship weighs more than a frame!
Old school still got skills though, just takes longer to recoup
What i don't get is those amazing outfits in the 80's and early 90's with protection! Why they dropped that?!
Great video! Thank you!
Wow awesome video Eddie
My heroes in the eighties are still my heroes now lol....
4130 FO LIFE

Needed a stuntman for the last trick.

Yellow duct tape. 😜✌️
Patrick Romano was the king of flatland
People think they are tough, but that's what those who end up as vegetables with brain damage also thought.
What's that floor ever done to you?
Stay rad Eddie
