Wow a lot has been happening and I am working to build 2013 bigger and better for Flatmonkey Bmx....Tuesday I will be setting down with Storybook Island to plan the 2013 Schedule.  I will also be performing for Relay for Life this summer in June and have shows scheduled at Box Elder Bmx Race Track.  We are building our schedule and hop to see everyone at one of our summer shows!

Great Sponsors and Support

2012 Has been a blessed summer for us here at Flatmonkey Bmx.  I felt like moving forward was a little rough for us this year and then some great new sponsors came through....I want to thank the following for their support this year:

Kerusso Clothing
They Clothing
Cyberhorse (Chsportswear.com)
DNA Energy Drinks
S-One Helmets
DiscountRamps.Com

And a big shout out to DK Bicycles (Trevor and Jesse) for always making sure we are hooked up to perform!

I feel blessed for all the support in 2012 and I feel great with all we have planned going into the new year! 

Blessings!  And thanks for supporting what we love to do!

To the kids and teens out there that find us here...Thanks for supporting what we do!

DK Bicycles and Storybook Island

2011 started off crazy with all the weather we have had in South Dakota. We finally go a late start on shows and thanks to Trevor and the team at DK for this years support. I am rolling on a DK Opsis that you can purchase at Http://www.flatlandfuel.com or Http://www.dkbicycles.com I will have some down time for the next couple of weeks because of traveling but, will be back at Storybook the first week in August! See you soon!

Sturgis, SD

On the 8th of January 2011 we made it to a private event on Sturgis, SD thanks to the sponsors at DK Bikes. This was a great small event to start out 2011. We will be working with Taggarts Skate Rental in Siuth Dakota and performing at his events for the rest of the winter and into spring and summer! We are stoked on this partnership! Stay Tuned for more updates!

Rolling DK style

I am happy to annouce that I am rolling for DK under a co-sponsorship program for 2011! The DK Opsis is my new ride with a few modifications and a few more to come. This an afforadble ride that I am happy to promote to youth starting out!

The Family

The summer was a little rough when I returned from overseas but, I am back on my bike and currently have some old and new sponsors. I like to refere to my sponsors as the family because I only ride for companies that make me feel I am part of what they are doing. I have decided after many back and forth moments to stay with Airspeed shoes they have always been home for me! I also feel honored to have returned back to Hitman Bikes Flow Team this was a good move because the bike is lighter and made tough for my old school and new school riding. Six Feet Deep clothing has also been a great sponsor to me over the past two months and I am glad to be a part of this newer company. Fuel Clothing is also fueling the fire for my winter time needs while I plan for some up coming events that will cause me to be outdoors during some winter time shows. Flatmonkey Bmx is starting to return to our Roots as we have learned from our friends at Hitman Bikes! We are starting to do our own projects and feeling the freedom of riding and learning new flatland tricks and links....more to come!

So I have been out of the country on military business for 6 months and just returned. Started a new tout in mid July for Flatmonkey Bmx but, had to detour do to a family death. However; the good news I am back and doing what I love riding Flatland and with new support welcome YUM SHOES as the official new sponsor for Flatmonkey Bmx!
