What a great video. Chase was one of the most entertaining riders to watch. He made really interesting combinations

Back in 1996-1997 I was learning flatland & there was this Asian kid from my home town who was like *REALLY* Incredible… and I had a black Dyno Air which was outfitted with red Primo V-Monster Tires, Dave Voeleker 4-Piece Handlebars, GT Overdrive Sprocket, red ODI grips, red Odyssey 99er seat, black/red brake levers that I think came from a buddy’s Royce Union Freestyle bike, and more… & the Asian kid had a Chrome _Fishbone Big Ass_ & I thought I needed to get a bike like his & he was like “Listen, it’s not about the bike, if you look at like Flatland contests or see guys doing flatland, they all have bikes like yours, your problem is right here [slaps my black GT 3-Spoke Mag Wheels] _(…Mag Wheels are Plastic, Bicycle Brakes work using the principles of Friction; as the brake pads touch the plastic surface, it wears increasingly more & more smooth decreasing friction making the brakes less & less effective…)_ so, my local bike shops all said “scuff up the surface of the mags which the brake pads touch with sandpaper & you should be good!!” So I figured “Fuck it, I’m going to order enough Skateboard Grip tape to grip up 10 Skateboard Decks, and I’ll cut up the grip tape with an X-Acto Knife, and stick it onto the sides of the mag” so, I bought 2 sheets of Grip Tape from a skate shop like 15 miles from my house, and I did it, after about a week the grip tape had sanded the brake pads enough so they weren’t rubbing all the time, but the grip tape had worn through…

Damn. Never knew how good Gabe was on a bike - some mad combos right there. The Robot Meyer sure never disappoints. How can you spin, roll and jump in any direction with ease? This guy has no room for weakness.......

Oh wow!!!! I saw the footage on the black Powerlite and this is almost beyond superlatives. Even if l saw all of that in 96 this is right up there to, as some of the most skilled riding l've ever seen🏆🏆🏆🏆

Essentially the birth of brakeless flatland..... Outside of the pinky squeaks in the very beginning, pretty sure this was the first all brakeless flatland section in a video. Timeless.

from 95 to early 97 I was riding flat in Los Angeles. Met Eddie Fiola, Jesse Puente, Shawn, Day, Allien Landen and Andreas Tschuck, but mainly lived the streetlife as a soulrider. Never even heared of Trevor and the other guys then. BMX can beam you into another sphere....

Jesus....Ending his run right on the buzzer with a smith decade - after this endless combo. Bumping that tire at the end shows his relief and satisfaction. We ´ve heard stories about him "stealing", copying stuff vom Kev, Ch but I feel that he simply loves to ride and the audience sees it in his style and commitment to the sport. Ride on, Robot.

He still rides to this day but doesn't compete anymore. Does halftime shows and high school events mostly. His style changed a lot but is still a very good rider.
