Sumbitch...I get all sweaty and excited when I can just ride in a straight line without falling down. Need to check this guy's DNA...make sure he's human.
He reminds me of a young male model, Derek Zoolander. He could only go to the right as well. Seriously though, joy and good vibes, good video art, damned impressive.
I remember growing up in York, PA and seeing guys like Kevin Jones, the grand Daddy of Flatland, and thinking that there was no way it progress any farther than he was taking it; that was 15 or 16 years ago, and I was WRONG!! Matt Wilhelm is still doing the old decades, steamrollers, and tailwhips that we all know, but has taken them to a level that is far beyond what could have ever been expected!!

I was waiting for him to do a skid or a track stand. Never happened. The kid has a lot to learn. I mean, he didn't even have an ironic mustache.

If I could just get my 85' Haro Master back... I'd probably jump it in a lake like I did in 86'.
