It’s a new month, a new year and a new decade, which means it’s time for a new edit from Brian Tunney showing us what he got into during his flatland sessions over the course of December. This edit marks 12 consecutive months of edits, which is awesome. This one is a little different than usual, with no music. However, the riding is still on point! Hit play and check out the riding!

“December basically turned into a month of undertaker B-sides. In between holiday craziness, getting sick, the disappointment of Star Wars and a lot of in general BS to contend with throughout the month of December, I managed the above. It’s not that impressive but hey, you can’t win them all.

This also marks a full year of monthly riding videos, which was my aim last year. So yeah, ’45-year-old man does stupid BMX tricks for a year, documents it’ is what my life has become.

And because it was the end of the decade on Dec. 31, I had to finish with an old favorite: the smith decade. Onward and upward into the new year….” – Brian Tunney

Maybe it’s the whole getting older thing, but time seriously flies by these days. November has already burned by us and we’re into December. With a new month comes a new edit from Brian Tunney to enjoy! Here’s a mix of clips Brian whipped up from his sessions that he got in. Like pretty much all of us, he got hooked on one particular trick and tried to see how many ways he could mix it into things and really dial it in. Needless to say, this is a real solid watch if you’re looking for some flatland goodness. Check it out!

“Full disclosure here: The first beach clip (lawnmower to undertaker) was filmed in late October after I finished the October video. Following that day, we went to Thailand for 10 days, so I didn’t start riding again until Nov. 10. But in the time off the bike, I became weirdly obsessed with undertakers, as evidenced by this video. So I decided to basically devote a month to the long lost art of the classic 80’s undertaker, and this is the result.

A bit of background here: When undertakers first arrived on the scene in BMX, I was 12-13 and not very big. Not that I’ve grown into a huge adult or anything, but undertakers on a classic ’80s BMX bike for a 12-year-old were next to impossible. I just couldn’t reach the bars during the underneath transition portion. So I basically just moved on to things I could do and forgot about undertakers. A few years ago, I started messing with them again but always got to a weird point where they became tougher with each attempt to do them. So again, I had to forget about them for a while and start anew.

Now, finally, at age 45, over 30 years after the undertaker debuted on the BMX scene, I’m getting a little more grasp on them. That grasp will assuredly go away when I least expect it, but this video is slight proof that for one month in 2019, I could kinda do them. Sorry for what comes across to me as a cocky intro, and thanks as always to Mark Kozelek for lighting the way.” – Brian Tunney

Just when Brian Tunney thinks I’m not going to post his latest edit, I crush his hopes and dreams and post it! Here’s a look at what Brian laid down during his October sessions with another song selection I’ve never heard. If you’re looking for new music you have never heard, just watch Brian’s edits since he always delivers.

“It’s the end of the month again. This is everything I managed to film. John K. Samson, formerly of The Weakerthans, is an old standby of mine. Write to him here:

John K. Samson
PO Box 83
971 Corydon Avenue
Winnipeg, Mb
Treaty 1
R3M 3S3

Tell him you don’t hate Winnipeg.” – Brian Tunney

Despite Brian Tunney‘s best attempts to deter me from posting his latest edit with confusing statements about chicken sandwiches, I still can’t pass this up! It’s a new month and Brian has compiled all of his clips from his flatland sessions over the course of September. As always, Brian delivers with some solid riding and great song selection.

“You don’t need to feature this Kurt. I’m a 45-year-old man, I should be able to eat a chicken sandwich if I want.” – Brian Tunney

…. Anyone up for Chick-Fil-A?

Another month has gone blazing by and summer has wrapped up. That means that it’s time for a new Brian Tunney edit from the flatland sessions he got in the past month. Although it sounds like it was a busy one for him, he was still able to produce some great riding for everyone’s viewing pleasure! Take a look!

“I started August with a pretty bad head and chest cold. Things only got worse from there. Between X Games and moving (again), I didn’t expect to get much done this month, but it happened in between the madness and across some new revisited riding spots from North Redondo. Once I find a decent riding spot in Lawndale, I think the riding frequency will increase. But for now, just know that you can move, work a lot and still make time to ride in between. Or something like that.” – Brian Tunney

Brian Tunney had us checking the calendar when we saw his monthly video pop up! It looks like Brian will be a little busy next week with X Games stuff, so he gifted us his monthly edit from his flatland sessions a few days earlier than expected. As always, Brian delivers with some great riding and song selection. This one even has a few unexpected things like a clip he literally got during one of the Earthquakes out in California and more. Take a look! This doesn’t disappoint.

“I had to finish this early cause of that whole X Games thing happening next week. Between earthquakes (check the second clip) and a random dude threatening to break my neck because I took the lord’s name in vain on an aborted attempt, it’s been quite a month of riding. The nice thing is, even in crazy busy months, the BS magically disappears for a time when I go ride. It’s part escape but also part therapy and I hope that doesn’t go away for some time to come. Sorry for the depressing Owen song in advance.”

Another month went blazing by, and that means it’s time for Brian Tunney to give us a look at what he has been getting into during his flatland sessions over the course of the month! As always, Brian cooked up a pretty laid back edit, but the riding is real solid and it looks like he’s been pretty hooked on combos with barspins as of late. Take a look!

“I kinda went down another pointless barspin wormhole in June. It was fun, it was silly, and then it got weird when I started grabbing the pedals. ‘Coyote’ from Sun Kil Moon clocks in at 12 minutes but I didn’t get enough riding done in less than a month for that….” – Brian Tunney
