  1. It is harder and you are also jumping backwards a lot instead of going straight up.
  2. Don´t pedal too much and release the brake a bit later.
  3. Koxx sky 2, yellow ribos...I can only guess who is your role model.
  4. And some have said crewkerz cranks look ugly...
  5. I´m running them so they are exactly parallel. And I know about one well known rider who would disagree with that statement
  6. Heh,that never happened to me, but bro keeps bitchin about it. Nothing good booster wouldn´t change though
  7. Vees all the way, much better hold and can have bite simmilar to maggies when you set them up perfectly. Just don´t use any calipers with paralelogram system.
  8. Scary as fook lol, I´m glad I don´t have to ride them.
  9. U Ramp is ramp,kicker is kicker big diff.
  10. You can sidehop to left/right side, taking of off rock, root, concrete pipe, spool etc. Tell me how ramp can be different?Bigger or smaller?Ramp is the most boring obstacle for TRIALS ever made.
  11. I´m not TRA, but I´m sure you will have no problem find them on youtube/vimeo.
  12. After two comps ramps would be boring, ramp is only a ramp, unless you expect them to pull some flairs and tailwhips in them.
  13. You can only guess what´s reason and what is consequence...It was 12years ago, let it go...If it really was hard thing to do, I´m sure there would be ramps at every comp, I don´t know who would be interested in them though, I certainly wouldn´t.
  14. My point is there aren´t any ramps at comps, why should they train them???You don´t see soccer player train tennis either, it wouldn´t be very usable I guess.
  15. Doing 7ft hooks of kicker is fairly impressive to me? On the other hand u ramp is something totally useless and has no place in trials. And I´m very possitive that sidehoping 60inches is much harder than droping in ramp and jumping out of it. Number of people who can do it only proves it. I don´t get this argument anyway, Gilles is numerous world champion, he is the best at what he is doing, why should he do something else? For bunch of streetriders on forums? I have no problem to believe he would be able to learn aforementioned thing if there was need to,but there isn´t and he obviously only care about winning competitions.
  16. You do realize that 15yo BMXer most likely wouldn´t be able to pedalkick gap 3ft.?And does that make him worse BMXer? I would say no, it´s not a part of BMX after all.
  17. Don´t be too hard on him, I was able to understand that so it´s good enough
  18. The obstacle I talk about was 5 or 6 rollers one after other so you had to kinda roll it up without too much of hopping, it was in motorex section. Anyways, you might have noticed Gilles got hella lot better at kickers this year and again managed to clean kickers kenny fived. So I believe he can do anything he wants to if he trains for that puprose. In Canada, it was big shock for pretty much every rider who was there I guess since noone expected that, putting kicker in almost every section was so unexpected as if they put 150cm sidehop at the end of the section in every one of them.
  19. Rolling barrels like in Saalfelden? Gilles still killed it there and I think he cleaned that section without a problem. But Jack C, well he don´t have good memories from that section,that´s for sure.
  20. Your favourite rider helped with designing of sections in aelter and antwerp if I´m not mistaken, and they weren´t any different to those "french" ones. Big,technical moves is where it´s at. Deal with it
  21. I don´t think he cares about "riding".
  22. I was talking about crewkerz, I don´t know more than you about try all cranks guys, don´t ask me things lol. But it looks closer to 24mm spindle(like hollowtech 2) than to 30mm crewkerz will use and bb30 system already uses. We will see soon I guess,2013 version can be very different to those posted here, but it´s great to see something new and interesting is in the making.
  23. You won´t be able to use them unless you buy full build bike...
