The past few weeks, discussion surrounding the role of MegaRamp in BMX made waves in the Twitter-verse, with certain BMX personalities, in addition to pro riders, questioning the safety of the big ramp and the legitimacy of Big Air contests. Ultimately, the discussion led to a debate over whether or not there was a role for MegaRamp style Big Air riding in the future direction of BMX.

GHBNYC, he has a really good point that kids are too concerned with what you ride and how your ride vs the fact THAT you ride. BMX is purely a fashion show now, and it's terrible. Kids are bashing other riders because they don't fit that "chase hawk/chase dehart/garrett reynolds/dakota roche" style. God forbid someone likes their seat up higher, or brakes, or no pegs or just something different.
I am ashamed for those who feel that you have to ride a certain way and set up your bike a certain way to be a "real rider". Pathetic.
