While taking a photowalk in San Francisco, I stumbled upon the very talented BMX flatland legend, Pete Brandt. He graciously allowed me to shadow a few of his practice sessions. Even if you're not privy to the BMX flatland scene, you could appreciate Pete's strive for innovation, work ethic, intensity, and humbleness--all the elements of a great artist. He has over twenty years of experience, practices a minimum of eight hours a day, does competitions/shows/tours worldwide, promotes his DVD ("Persevere" video clip) and spins amazing Drum and Bass. He's a whirlwind of energy. . . check out the rest of the photos here.
