I'm so sick of stunt videos..

Post by T.Low »

This guy actually has some really nice moves that I haven't seen before. And I generally like his style. The video itself is well done with a sound track I can actually listen too.

Its funny to see the reactions from the bystanders.

Very cool riding. I can't even imagine trying most of that stuff.

this guy is awesome. this is the form of street riding that i always used to try with my bmx in the late 80's/90's. we didn't have 1/2 pipes or access to skateparks, so it was 'street'. needless to say i wasn't quite as good .. now I'm just too old :cry:

my fav move he pulls is around the 3min mark on the tree =D>

Yeah, the tree ride flair is sick.

At 34, I'm still doing this style of riding, but yeah my skills aren't even close. Do a pretty good job still hanging with the younger locals.

Never said I was old, never will. I still plan to be pushing myself in ten years and beyond.

Zammer, a friend of mine emailed it to me. He said his mom sent it to him.

I just found out the guy is the nephew of Baldy, who owns a forum where I organize a lot of my rides, ADVentureRider.com (Rule 6b, Rule 6b!!! :bounce: )

That tree stunt is incredible. THe video itself is really well made. There are indeed too many good stunts and too many well linked stunts to even mention. I think I'll watch it again.

Aaron, I always thought I had skill and good moves until I tried doing stunts...wow.
