I do mtb mostly, but a little bmx too. And I have to say that your ride looks sick! Just put a goldfinger in there and it will kill it all!!!

i bmx and mountain bike. I think that mountain biking shouldbe kept away from dirt jumping, park and urban. Those are for bmx.

I disagree with the urban aspect. Honestly I think that urban riding is very sick, especially when it's trials riding. But I do also like the flow of street riding as well and think that it's a pretty viable part of mountain biking, even though it really doesn't include mountains.

most things on a mtb bike are easier making it not as cool... mtb is like snowlerblading just not quite as bad (as far as park ditjumping & street go) DH is the shit though

i like the urban redbull freeride contests.. mtb'rs doing barspins, wallrides, tailwhips.. its just like skiing progressing.. so are other sports.. its like freestyle moto turned a lot of people on to freeride.. for example... snowmobiles, quads.. etc..

In the UCI world cup in Mont Saint-Anne their was a huge Dirtjump show with mtbikes. It was sick! Cam Zink throwing down 360's both sides, McCaul even did a 360 tailwhip (it was insane!) and another rider did a frontflip... best riders in the world it's sick!

Actually he was talking about where and how you could do the tricks. Like a massive 360 off a drop (CKD trailor) or just the creativity in the courses that they can have making the tricks seem every more spetacular.

Ohh, yea and did you know that someone threw down a double backflip on a mtb lately? And that in NWD6 (mtb movie) someone does a 720?! That's wacko.

^ I'm going to have to guess Timo Pretzle for the double back, and the 720 was Paul Basigotia. The first 720 was also thrown in a comp. as well by an unknown rider.

^ Oh nice shit, I seriously thought Timo would be the first because he almost got it a few seasons back. Unchained was quite the let down wasn't it?
