Speak For Yourself: Isaac Lesser from Mike King on Vimeo.

This is the very first of the FFWD web series of  ‘Speak For Yourself’ (S4Y).

S4Y is a totally unscripted interview, none of the typical ‘BMX questions’ everyone is so bored of hearing;

The idea is to sit a rider down infront of a camera, and just have a conversation with a bunch of friends with the aim of really getting the best out of someone.

Over the coming months FFWD will be doing several more of these interviews, with some highly recognisable names from within the BMX industry.

First up, is Mankind, ZEAL and Rockstar‘s Isaac Lesser, who in the last year, has made a strong name for himself, not only for being the friendliest guy in the UK BMX scene, but for his undeniable talent on a BMX.

Isaac got second place last year at the ‘Simpel Summer Session’ to Daniel Dhers, and is the only rider doing consistent barspin to hang 5′s.

We shot this on our final night in Estonia for the ‘Simpel Session’, just before we went to the after party, maybe this wasn’t the best of times to shoot an interview, but here’s a little insight into the mind of Isaac Lesser, as he gets in a few drinks…
