Oh man….here we go with “the flow” jokes….
Bill, ya know I’m not busting on anyone…
Just pointing out a way this could go if we aren’t careful…
Just makes me nervous for the future…LOL, those 2 ladies make every flatland pro look like kindergardeners….damn.
Bill with all the space in my head if I clear it anymore you could move the empire state building in… I’m sticking to the BMX bike…. 😆
Bill…Hello…
Rolling ATM machine…jeesh…
not quite as funny a joke after this weekend though.
SP, Louisville…imagine if these tracks were on PRIVATE property like CJ.
Boom. shutdown.
I could easily see a massive lawsuit from the current thinking.
L-Yes, your honor. Joe Smith was a 15 noviceracing the nationals when he wrecked on the..
J-Excuse me, novice?
L-Yes, your honor novice class. It’s a ranking where a lesser skilled…
J-Yes, I know the definition of novice.
J-So this organization allows people with insufficient skills to race on tracks designed for national caliber riders?
L-Well your honor Nick is a national ranked novice in his…
J-I’m not following this how can you be a “nationally” ranked underskilled rider, shouldn’t only skilled riders be nationally ranked?
L-Well your honor they also allow beginners on the track and…
J-Sorry? Beginners…people who have never raced before are allowed on a course designed to test the best riders in the country?, I’m ruling in the favor of the plaintiff as allowing an underskilled rider on a course designed for nationally ranked riders is a clear act of gross negligence.Am I completely nuts in this logic?
That was amazing.
Why can’t I see that shit on the olympics?
How many of our flatland tricks were inspired by that?
Pat Romano tricks.
Let’s get more vid of this…Sad.
Where is Bob Warnicke when I need him..i have to remember the rider has to decide not the parent/ or peer pressure or whatever
It still amazes many of us older riders, how many parents will yell at and intimidate their kid at a race. (Not you bmxmom, I just pulled your quote because it was really good)
Until you get on a 20″ bike, go as fast as you possibly can towards a jump and launch off the lip WITH about 6-7 other racers you can’t understand how risky this is.
I quit racing back in the 80’s because I suddenly realized one day that my fate rested in the hands of everyone else in my moto as well as my own abilities. So I gave it a rest and started freestyling.
Racing is no joke, it’s not people on little kids bikes messing around, it’s serious…(well mostly, pay no attention to the old kids on the gate, laughing all the time…)you can easilly get wrecked big time and through NO fault of your own.
Regarding south park…I keep saying this and no one has the balls to tell the nbl or the aba that it’s time to step up and make a national series where the tracks are harder and for experienced riders. Then the local T.O.s have to NOT cave to peer pressure and make local tracks that are not intimidating to new riders.
We also need some decent training facilities for racers. Ha, the nbl sold everyone the “olympic” dream and freestylers blew right past everyone with espn and dew…
You have to be a progressive thinker in order to make any change.World Championship race = top riders racing on the track, either you got the balls or you don’t.
National event where you let beginners, novices and expert-pro…well then you gotta start thinking, what’s best for all.
I know what’s best for BMX.
Which is to start making nationals…NATIONALS and not big locals.Not to downplay this Chris kids terrible crash, but Craig said Vinuch (Mannino) went down during practice, does anyone know how he’s feeling?
um…their website is pretty rocking…now I gotta stepup CJ again…sh*t
is mirraco, a take on miracle?
remember when they called him the miracle kid?
i wish i was done at 32 doing 8′ backflip whips ,lolThere’s no comparison between our old stuff and the new tech. It’s great though that we were around to witness all that history.
It’s time.
Yea, BMX made the news…’cause we get medi vac’d out.
Dammit.
