Just got back into biking after taking a little skating excursion and in some ways it has opened my eyes to bmxing. I used to run 4 pegs and grinding was pretty much my forte i guess you could say, but as i was skating i realized the effect that bikes can have. i think i talked about this a while ago in some other thread, and some brought up points about how skaters can chip ledges and stuff just as much as bikers (honestly i still havent skaters truely destroy a ledge), but honestly- now i feel like kind of a dick riding pegs. Of course no halfway decent bikers chip legdes purposfully but inevitably, it happens sometimes and i hate imagining myself skating a spot and when i get there i discover that its no longer skatable, so i have taken off my pegs. in a way i have mixed feelings about this, i want to respect spots and skaters but i also love and am good at grinding. honestly ill probably end up just going plastic after a while, but just want to see you all's opinion. What do you think about chipping ledges? Respect skaters or no? Also, how about that video transworld skate posted with the skaters riding the trails?
