As a young kid growing up on the streets of Paris, Matthias Dandois would kick a football around with his mates. The problem was, he didn’t enjoy it much.
Then one day, he saw another group of kids riding BMX bikes and having far more fun than he was on the football pitch. And that was it. A love affair was born.
A few years later, he was BMX flatland world champion, at just 19. Now, he’s a nine-time world champion, Olympic torch bearer for the Games held in his home city, a superstar in so many fields and there’s little doubt that he has transcended his sport.
Matthias is a BMX rockstar, and it was our true pleasure to welcome him to Just Ride, learn all about BMX flatland, and his remarkable career – including a fascinating spell as the lead actor in a Hollywood film!
Sadly, Rob wasn’t around for this one and Eliot flew solo, but Matthias brought the energy. You’re gonna love it.
We’ll be back soon.
Here at Just Ride we absolutely love hearing from you, so hit Eliot or Rob up on their socials or email [email protected] to get a shout out on the show.
