Hey Jamie

I noticed that you sessioned Corby's vert ramp not too long ago and what you managed to do on that ramp was sensational. How does it feel to be over 15ft in the air and to click in a giant invert?

Thanks

how much does your bike weigh, what do you think of bmx today opposed to bmx in the yesteryears and where do you see bmx going in the next 5-10 years uphill or downhill

when you exicute one of your tricks is it harder and when you do a turndown is it harder to do when your bars r small

hi jamie i was wondering why do you run 4 pegs when you ride vert cos you could save a lot of weight if you took them off or does it help you balance or something.

What do you think of Nigel Clough as manger of your beloved Rams????

I think an OBE would be well justified by the way

dude how do you flair?and when you first landed it was it the cooliest thing ever?

Jamie, you were the first person I've ever seen pull the flair downside whip. Whether or not it's actually been done before, you've definitely got it dialed like none other, and I'd love to see you pull it during competitions. What inspired you to try the trick, and how did you go about learning it on your own?

hi jamie, how do the the finaces of a sick bmx-er like you add up? i mean, you live at woodward, are sponsored by a clothing company, bike company, and car company, and win contests all the time.

I have never rode vert, i went to woodward for a race, and i saw you said something and you patted me on the back, i just want to know does it inspire you to ride harder when you know so many kids look up to you?

Hey Jamie, my name is Broderick Horne, i really enjoy your riding and style...i know that your favourite trick would probably be the invert, but what is your second favourite? and i love to make videos and post them on my site, For everyone that reads this and listens to this...my videos are posted on, www.broderickhorne.blogspot.com

Alrite jamie!Was just wondering how come you've never tried MegaRamp because if you're already used to going high on vert surely some one of your skills could transfer to megaramp..eh?Even more Giant downside whips!Thanks.
