You rule mate! To get the bike control you have, do you have a super light bike or just muscle it around? You can flair little kerb looking things! Would you agree that Mark Tremonti is one of the greatest, most talented guitar players around? -

so many of these questions are retarded, you could probably come up with the answers on your own if you thought about it some more. you're 17, I'm a 19 year old who started riding when a lot of the tricks that are done now were thought of as being impossible. How much of bmx do you think is a mind over matter kind of thing? I have noticed that confidence will make you land a trick and the second you doubt yourself you'll be flying over the bars, seeing riders do what they do now especially at young ages makes me think that kids who haven't been around bikes for long enough think of them the same way a lot of riders saw razor scooters when they came out. -
