Bob Haro Master Class: The beginning of BMX freestyle

Masterclass Bob Haro - Paris 2012 from Seb Satoorne on Vimeo.
 If you're an old school BMX freestyler, have you ever wished you could sit down and have Bob Haro, himself, tell you how freestyle began?  I know I have. 

I was working in the BMX and skateboard industries in Southern California from 1986 to 1990, and then Chris Moeller's roommate/video guy from 1991-1995.  I was in the mix quite a while, and I only met Bob Haro once.  So for all of us who got into freestyle in the 80's, and wondered just what the early history was, here's Bob Haro telling it, in his own words... for an hour.  This video is EPIC.

From Seb Ronjon and Franck Belliot in France, who I really got Facebook chatting with a couple days ago, comes another epic video.  They put together the truly first class BMX/skateboard/scooter culture exhibition Beton Hurlant, in 2011-2012 in France.  They invited Bob Haro over to check out the exhibit and narrate it on video.  But they also had an old school event they called the "Bob Haro Master Class."  Bob gives a slide presentation to a group of old school BMX freestylers from Europe, and spends an hour telling his side of the story, which is where it all began.  I found this absolutely fascinating.  I'm pretty sure many of you will, too.  It's an hour, so watch it when you have some time.  This video hasn't had any exposure outside of France, until now.  So I want to give a huge thank you to Seb and Franck for sharing it with me and all of you.
