left wrist is the one that has problems. Problem with frame length is everything is too long or too short.. nothing in between

How many of you have problems with a wrist? Which wrist is it and which foot do you ride forward? My wrist has gotten really bad to the point I can't lift over 10 lbs with it (left/left) I didn't have this problem when I had suspension because my fork at negative travel so when u pull up its not a snappy feel. But I gotta swtich from a mod to a 24" so i can run suspension without facking my geo up. I try to ride for several hours a day if i stop riding for a couple weeks and let it heal after i ride for about 3 hours it comes back. I ride a really facked up mod (toxsin 20.1) maybe its just because its too short for me? The problem started when i switched from my dob back to the toxsin, but I don't know if the lack of suspension caused it or the bike it self... anyone else have this problem? I tried a couple differnt bar setups too. Less upsweep seemed to help but it hasn't fixed it at all.

manuels are fun cause its one of the few moving tricks. U can basically do anything to manuel and manuel to anything.

im in the second half of the vid. WE built a snow thing it was pretty good but eventually collapsed at the lip. Mainly just wanted to test out high def. The whole thing is solid ice so it we crashed about a billion times http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAGamYwRQaI

2:27 u cut the clip off cause u didnt land it. Your manuels would look a lot more flowy if u got a bmx.... U should also pick a song i like not one you like. Might i recommend nickleback or kelly clarkson? Im just saying crap cause u always do in my vid threads I think u combine stuff well 2:20 and 0:55 were really inovative and looked awesome i had to rewatch it a couple times to figure out what was happening it was so technical. Its cool how you don't move around much. Usually someone finds 1 spot does their biggest thing there and then moves. You had like 5000 lines in the same place and didn't look like you were running out either. Great video. I guess people dont make fun of your bike either it looks really cool which gets trials away from the circus image.

everything about that was good great filming great riding great style great editing ... great video

well i think bmxers are really trendy. Right now the trend is landing everything clean. Nobody cares what u do unless u do it brakeless, drivetrainless, not underrotated, with no correction hops, and no major speed loss. They see danny mac like scotty cranmer. He does really hard things that no one else can do so if u cant complain about the skill, complain about his sock colour. Their are different forms of skill. 180ing a 6 set clean takes as much skill as like an 11 set sketchy, so what it comes down to is preference and like i said the trend decides their preference for them.

its funny no one commented on the big 180. I was more impressed by the 180 than the manuel up the rail, it was like a foot over bar height with no kick at all

The section starts at 2:00 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ftdo9vA46k Its a short part but so rediculous

Hmm some of the stuff was pure bmx... However almost every move in their requires tons of braking power which a bmx just doesn't have. Also he does everything different than the way a bmxer would. The main thing he takes advantage of is his front brakes. When he footjam tailwhips he uses his front brake giving him a lot more precision. I have never seen a bmxer do one on a rail or a post, but I have seen Danny do that. I don't see why people think bmxes are for street riding. They never built bmxes for street, they were made for jumps and people just started doing street on them and eventually they started improving the design to make it more street fit. Same thing with trials bikes and as time goes on they will make more trials bikes better suited to street riding. 1:55 was in my opinion the best line by far. Also I think trials bikes might actually better than bmxes for tailwhips, having an uber low/no seat would be a nice advantage. He is also taking advantage of the wheel size when he bump jump 180s and 360s up stair flights. If he hit the stair case that hard with a 20" wheel it would feel super rough and probably pinch flat. I also like his bitch crank tailwhip. If he gets good at those, he can pedal kick tailwhip a gap or something. Who is to say whats the best? obviously a trials bike has some advantages and some disadvantages over a bmx, it looks like he is making good use of the advantages... bmxers like to do everything drivetrainless, and brakeless this guy is doing it his own way.

i dont like to generalize a company, but I have had terrible experience with neon bikes. (they make dob too) I broke their isis cranks the first day I bought them, and I imagine the rims will flat spot very easily as they are lighter and cheaper than a a normal rim. Other than the cranks i tried 4 other products and the only one that didn't break was the stem.

can i enter ?

u should make riding your career or something. Seems like u can just do everything lol. u should try to get some non-biking sponsors and ud be rich. Ur so good at riding makes me wonder y u put down others.

thanks! I have broken 2 out of 26 frames ive owned in my life. Both of the ones I broke are dob frames. The first one broke at the seatstay when i was squeezing the brake hard and had no brake booster so i bought another. The second one the entire head tube sheered off doing a spin trick that I landed decently smooth. After that I switched back to toxsin cause I rode one for a year and never had a problem, and havent had a problem since. 2000$ of experimenting with bike parts i end up with the exact same set up i started with.

These are most of the half decent clips that never made it to my video section. Most were good but were rejected for bad filming or the style didnt fit. A bit more variety but still mainly manuels and spins..

lol oh sorry to confuse you haha. i'm the friend of the guy who is normally uses this account. im just posting under his name... too lazy to make one myself

im the guy in the vid. thanks a lot i really appreciate it. i didnt get hurt at all, just some scratches and a bruise on my hip. i was going to try again but decided i had already pushed my luck enough lol. glad you liked it.

i hope your timing this because this will be a ultra quick reply!!!!!! i certainly did fail because 1 guy who hates metal says so.... I will post this video in a metal forum and i bet the responses will be 100 times better than if i did in a trials forum, hence it would do better as a music video than a bike video but even still i would not say its a music video either. u keep arguing the metal doesnt go with the riding. Look at the keyboard line it is specifically synced to it and the lyrics, so u have alreedy proven u dont know what ur talking about, and from a subjective point of view i think the riding style goes well with the music but thats up to u to decide, but u are arguing that it is not synced and not edited.... lol do u have ulead video studios? ill send u the vps file and u can look at the audio graph and tell me its not synced. Nevertheless u completly ignored the point i made about my girlfriends boobs and are getting desperate... uve even resorted to name calling.... Im a "STUPID" now... + if u actually thought i was an idiot u would have stopped arguing a long time ago.... I even said no matter what ill never stop arguing because my forum reputation is SOOOOO important to me which is precisely why i try to intentionally come off as the most egotisical douche bag ever. Their is no logic behind my motives... so ill even give u points to help your argument - i work at a fast food store and dont go to college or anything - i have no girlfriend yes sadly but true - i have no car

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA not edited. Took me a week to edit that and everything is synced.... As for the objectvie subjective thing i will continue to answer everything u ask ONLY because their is no point in doing so.... What is the focus in a music video??? is it the guitarists ability to play guitar? or is it his ability to create mood. Biking is not the grander scheme in this, it is only a literal way of physically portraying the music. Biking is not the grander scheme hence it is not a bike video... If i removed the biking i would have to replace it with something else yes... because it would be 12 seconds long but i think anything could suffice as a replacment as long as carried out in the right style... AND PS MY EGO IS BIGGER THAN YOURS!!!!!!! I WILL STAY ON MY CPU 24 HOURS A DAY WAITING FOR ONZABOY TO MAKE A POST THEN INSTANTLY REPLY LIKE IM DOING SO NOW!!!!!!

i love u because u are not interested in the video u said u turned it off when u saw the title. You obviously have never editited a video in your life. Or neglected to anylyze the edits... The fish eye comment had nothing to do with anything and was just random. You don't see how its subjective??? lol u said u didnt notice how anything was editied except the start and end of the music, which clearly shows that as a hater u are not even doing a good job. U gotta rewatch it and download it and play it over at least 400 times so u can complain my sock colour was wrong in the last clip. IT WAS!!! SEriously IM WEARING A WHITE SOCK!!! NO JOKE!!! I dont recall saying its the best video of all time or having a cocky attitude at all...but i do intentionally try to enforce the way you would stereotype me for my amusment.... AND BY THE WAY IM RIGHT!!!!!!!!! IM ALWAYS RIGHT OK??????? MY GIRLFRIEND HAS BIG BOOBS AND HENCE THAT MAKES ME BETTER THAN U, SO IN A WAY BECASUE IM BETTER THAN U I WOULD HAVE TO SAY THAT MAKES ME RIGHT??? SO U CAN JUST STOP ARGUING AT THIS POINT BECAUSE IM ALWAYS RIGHT!!!!!!!!!

OKIE DOKIE MY LIFE STORY I started as a street racer riding down cement paths and timing how long it took, saw someone do a jump then switched to dirt jumper, then became a pure stock trials rider after seeing a trials rider it was the most amazing thing i ever saw, then became a mixxy trials rider because i found pure trials too dangerous, so id rather spin all day then do a big rail gap or something, then i realized i dont live near enough ledges or anything to practice mixxy trials everything i live near is more pure trials oriented, so i switched to doing both pure trials and pure street riding. Then I got to a point where my mad sqealing brakes and knobby tires limited my ability to modulate street moves and had to decide to go either pure street or pure trials, and basically what made the decision was most my friends are bmxers so i decided to go streety. However I realized my bike might not be the most suitable thing for riding pure street. So i tried a bunch of bmx set ups a bunch of mtnbike set ups, a combination of bmx/mtnbike/trials bike set ups, and after experimenting with virtually everything i ended up with what i have and like it. As for variety I know many tricks and have tons of variety cause I come from many backgrounds. However I say style>skill and id rather do a good trick with 4 variations than a average trick just to have variety. I think side hopping up a ledge is a lot differnt than side hopping onto a rail and if someone put both into a video i woudlnt call it repetative at all.... I also think wall tapping an over vertical tree is different than doing a manuel to wall tap... Soooo.... no im not gonna just do 270 spins off a ledge because I can...

GET A FISH EYE LENS!!!!!!!!!! NOTHING IN THAT VIDEO LOOKED GOOD CAUSE U CAN ACTUALLY TELL HOW BIG SOMETHING IS!!!!

this is a video of my friend. people post a lot of bmx vids here and i think this one is cool cause he has rad style. He doesn't do anything too big but just makes tricks look good.

do you know why u make negative posts? Its simple.... u try to destroy an ego. If i had initally said "im not too good at riding but just having fun its not too good but hey its something to watch" then every single comment would be positive. normally if u dont like a video u just stop watching it and dont bother to do anything... but if u determine the guy has an ego u will go out of your way to negatively rate it. I bet the haters pay 100 times closer attention to the video than the people who liked it BUT LITTLE DO U KNOW MY EGO IS AS BIG MY GIRLFRIENDS BOOBS AND THEY KEEP GETTING BIGGER BECAUSE THEIR IS ALWAYS MORE AND MORE IMPLANTS!!!!!!!!!! ALWAYS MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
