I'm 42 and I grew up an absolute bmx freak! I was always waaay more into the dirt track/racing/backwoods trail style ... but seeing that I've been GT BMX to-the-end, Eddie Fiola and the gt freestyle crew were, are, absolute legends. A great treat to witness live, from day 1
@@AngryD Could not agree more...I am 56 and say the same thing and I lived through it all and the 80;s was the best time for many things especially BMX
Great time to grow up. I was 12 in 1985 and GT Bikes were the coolest with the pastel colors, white mags, handle bars and seat posts. I never learned all of these flatland tricks but it sure was fun back then riding and trying to learn them.
dham629 yup, I'm more of a dirt track fan even to this day. I'm tryna find either a yellow, or the baby blue (er, should I call it SKY blue haha) GT PRO SERIES. The gt colors were off the charts back i our day. In 1985, I was 10 yrs old, a GT bmx freak, a gi Joe and transformers maniac, and I was outside all day ripping around my forest 'hood, and wow into town, in pennsylvania/jersey, cruisin' the streets on my GT MACH ONE, wit my bro I grew up with , him on his Mongoose 'Californian'. If only I still saw that dude around, and of only we still had those old skool bikes! Mine was stolen in like 1990 grrr. I'm eyeing up a pro series on eBay as we speak. Anyone out there tryna sell a 1980's GT bmx, hit me up!
omg, this brings back ol memories...my 1st bmx video back in 85.. which is sooo rare those days.. we use to make copies after copies on vhs ...hahaha...
Haha..brings back my sweet 80's memories.. back then we worship Eddie Fiola, Martin Aparijo, Richie Anderson and others.. watching RAD movie every weeks. Falling in love with Lori Loughlin n Nicole Kidman in BMX Bandits. BMX goes more extreme these days but 80's started it all.. just like Cannibal Corpse with their extreme music but Slayer is still the undisputed king of metal.
I'm 40 years old and I still have my 1986 redline RL20a freestyler from my flatland years. The funny thing is that I probably still could do all these tricks.
hcelentano cool. go to my channel to see my new vid i did a few days ago. i am 42 and a old school flatlander. i make flatland and bmx videos. peaceee. old bmxers never die.
I used to fuck myself up doing this shit! The hospital bills between this and learning how to breakdance! So many stitches!! Draining the knees and fat lips......Never again!
Damn I remember when I had my beautiful dark red Dyno GT with the 3 spokes with gt printed on them 😍😍😍😭😭😭 i miss you bike where ever you may be today hope who ever stole you got good use of you and took care of you
Best time to grow up. Always had something to do and some where you wanted to be. Always looking to imitate a hero we saw growing up. If it was from a professional BMX rider, skater, weight lifter who did that and movies, Kung Fu, boxer in Philly, a jet fighter or all star athlete in highschool, we had lots to pick from and try to be. Know days, what or who, guy in you tube making some dumbass videos, playing Gary's mod, where did all the fun and hereos go? Thank God I was fortunate enough to have been a part of the best generation there was.
THE 80S WERE JUST THE BEGINNING...DIFFICULT BUT FUN...EXCITING...GREAT LEARNING CURVE..WE WERE ALL MASTERS OF OUR CRAFT....UNFORTUNATELY SOME WERE UNRECOGNISED....CHECK OUT SHAUN CARTER ON FACEBOOK..
Been riding bmx forever and oldschool flatland going on 3 years. Yes I have new school bmx to haha. But only 16year old who knows most if not all OS BMX knoledge

I can't do any of these tricks either, but I prefer watching this than the Figure Skating that almost all the flatlanders are doing nowadays..
I'm 54 and still riding in Charlotte, NC. Come ride with us if you're in the area
Pure joy, and happy life.
I'm 39 and this was my dream as a kid, ridin Team GT with Martin Aparijio, Josh White and my man Eddie Fiola. oh the 80s, how I miss them so.d:^P
I always wanted a GT world tour as well!!! The country in the 80s was great and how it should of stayed!!!
Can anyone remember a film from 80-90 where they did cool stunts like this?
It's called ( Rad ) loves that movie!
th-cam.com/video/NtuMoP4jP_k/w-d-xo.html
That's just the intro. Lord brings back memories.
I have this on a GT video I got for xmas in '85, Amazing stuff, still blows me away today.
Very very good
omg, this brings back ol memories...my 1st bmx video back in 85.. which is sooo rare those days.. we use to make copies after copies on vhs ...hahaha...
probably the best old school bmx vid i have ever seen
I've seen a lot, but the handstand on the bars is the sickest display of skills.
Bar press...I could do it back in the day. Better days.
When the old stuff was the new stuff.
GOOD OLD 1980s Days
I ❤ BMX FREESTYLE
INCREDIBLE!!
I did watch this video everyday. It was as close to a GT as I could ever get!! ha.
Had it on VHS, wore my VCR out with it.
God I remember them days !
Buenos tiempos
I'm not sure why, but the music is so fitting!
Old school free styling.

This was nice to read and its the reason we did what we did!
Damn those old school tricks use a lot of rear coaster breaking. I gotta go get a coaster set yo I know I’m not the only true rider that notices this
Magaling mag tricks
I'm 40 years old and I still have my 1986 redline RL20a freestyler from my flatland years. The funny thing is that I probably still could do all these tricks.

All those moves came from this movie called Quicksilver back in the 1980s
Awesome
I come for the music
Doing a handstand on a skateboard is impressive but doing it almost horizontally on a bike is hunder times more impressive.
Hola desde México😁😁😁😁

I just randomly did the whip back around and ride off one day and i thought it was an old trick and it is awesome
Wow. I can't believe I used to be proud of myself for almost riding a wheely down my entire driveway.
Thats still kick ass dude! Make no mistake, a wheelie is an awesome show of balance
