Really solid stuff to hear, when I watched it both real-time and slow motion, for some reason I was overly confused and couldn't count the whips, it was totally strange to watch and I feel for them.

Added reply in a thread Sliced shin open
I've been stitched up 3x on my left shin (its my front foot, therefore most vulnerable). This is what I do now: I always ride in jeans and with PC pedals. It is true, if you have shorts on, either type of pedal will rip to the bone if you hit hard enough, ... more »
Added reply in a thread Double Barspins?
I agree with readybmxer, when I have done them I had the best luck doing a normal bar, catching, and then throwing another one. The biggest tip is going high, that way when you catch the first bar you can confidently throw the second. I do one in this ... more »

Added reply in a thread Has Instagram killed classical BMX media?
This is a good point, and it reminds me of what Broc Raiford said in his episode of Dennis Enarson's "Unclicked" podcast. The just if what he said was that he blew up his knee super bad, and wasn't able to ride for a good 6 months due to surgery and ... more »
Started new thread Has Instagram killed classical BMX media?
Ride is dead...ish. Vital and TCU both barely have a pulse from riders under the age of 20. I was listening to Dennis Enarson's Unclicked podcast with Tony Ennis, and they were talking a bit in there about how much Instagram has changed BMX media. The ... more »

For those who saw RWs interview after getting gold... How sad was that? He said "thank-you BMX for accepting me".... Like the poor kid felt like an outcast from not getting an invite for a while, then getting bashed for his first, second, and now third ... more »

You are definitely right. As far as my picks: Big air = Morgan Wade Street = I hope Broc Raiford or Justin Spriet do well. I can almost guarantee that Garrett will get some hardware. Park = Dennis will do well, as will Baldock and Bruce.
Added reply in a thread Easy tricks that you can't do
So after making this thread I decided I should try tables again. I looked up Harry Main's old table tutorial and gave it a few attempts today. This is what I have (which is way better than I ever thought I'd do!), and I am going to keep working on it

Added reply in a thread Easy tricks that you can't do
I feel the exact same way with manuals, hang 5s, nose mannies, any of those types of tricks. But whenever I see someone do a long deck manual around a bowl I get more jealous than anything. So I guess I just need to buck up and keep working on them. ... more »

Reading these reminds me of how many other "easy" trick I can't do... haha. My manual game is off and on. I feel like I suck whenever I see the manual lines that these guys are doing now-I mean I can hold one for probably 10+ parking spaces every 3rd ... more »

Started new thread Easy tricks that you can't do
So I've been riding for a decade now. I've had times where I have been really into lots of barspin combos, other times when I would tailwhip everything, I learned backflips & 540s just for fun along the way... However, two tricks that I'd think should ... more »

It's a weird trick. It's one of the few tricks that confuses me more when it's slow. I knew it was a triple, but I was expecting it and knew it's what he wanted to do. If I just saw it cold turkey, I very well could have mistaken it for a double.
