You have silky smooth skills. I liked that vid, nice one. ^_^

Happy Birthday!

I don't think it's only on the forum, all my mates keep falling out at the moment, and everyone seems to get in a crappy mood all the time. Personally I blame exams

That's awesome, Hat off to you for pulling it

Sweet vid. Lucky for savage that tree was there at the end

>Intellibuddy: Hi, I'm Intellibuddy! Nice to meet you. >You: are you a lesbian? >Intellibuddy: No I am not interested in other women that way. >You: Why not? >Intellibuddy: It doesn't sound fun too me. It sounds dangerous. >You: In what way is it dangerous? >Intellibuddy: The last one, I think. >You: oh ok >Intellibuddy: OK. Are you kidding? >You: err yes >Intellibuddy: Um. Whoever invented this had way too much time on their hands. Still hilarious

I've been doing 2-3 hours a day, and so far they're not going too badly. I don't understand why they do it like this, with how the teachers teach a subject. They look at past papers, and will often teach the things that are likely to be on the exam paper. I thought the purpose of an education was so you had a knowledge of all the necessary skills you'll need in life, not a bunch of letters next to your name on a CV that show you have been taught how to get a good grade in an exam. I don't know if I'm making sense here. What I mean is exams now are all about an "exam technique" where you have to answer the question in a certain way to get the marks. This knowledge won't help you atall when you're older, and I think it should be purely based on knowledge. I know this doesn't occur in all subjects, but in some it doesn't seem to be what you know anymore. Apologies if all this is wrong or doesn't make sense. Cheers

No way I discovered mine all nackered the other day too. I took them out and they are: Outer Diameter - 25mm Inner Diameter - 15mm Width - 5mm I'm still searching for somewhere that sells them other than the ones direct from profile. Anyone who is an expert on bearings care to enlighten on what is best? Cheers Edit: Sorry monkeyseemonkeydo, missed your post :">

That was awesome, makes me want to ride now, realllllllllly bad. Look forward to the others

Finished school on tuesday, and then tuesday night I was riding when my profile starting making strange noises. Got home, took it apart, and all the tiny bearings inside jus fell out. Think it might be a sign to tell me to revise and not ride. ^_^

www.davetrials.ismad.com is what inspired me to ride trials, found it on the links page of biketrials.com and then realised there were lots of people doing it in Britain. I owe a lot to that site, the effort was much appreciated! Cheers

Cheers Guys I'll do my best. Much Appreciated

Good evenin all, I have an echo crankset with a fixed sprocket on, and has been for a while now. It has now become buckled to the extent where its ridiculously tight one side, and so lose it hits the chainstay on the other. My question is, will it be possible to change the sprocket and the threads on the cranks to be still ok, or do I need new cranks? Cheers

I saw on a program the other week, Bill Gates is only giving 0.02% of his wealth to his kids. This shocked me, as I was forgetting it was Bill Gates, and it turned out to be $10million each. He's givin the rest to charity, which I think is awesome. Id have a big modern looking house, with a slide going out my bedroom window into a pool, so I could do that to wake me up every morning. Id have a warehouse, for a trials park, have a seperate warehouse which had an intergrated indoor and outdoor skate park, and a 6 pack dirt jumps. Trials_pimps car ideas sound good too, I probably wouldn't go to that extent though, showroom would be awesome if I had a selection of nice cars. Cheers

Not taking anything away from bongo or ashton, but surely if you gave any pro bmxer a trials bike and let him get used to it for a few days, im sure they'd easily be able to pull a backflip out the bag. I'm not talking from experience as there's no way I could do it, but would this happen? Cheers

That was on the last day of the bike show, someone did post it already, but that video is better quality. Scotty Cranmer, the legend that is. Double tailwhip backflip.

It's happened 2 or 3 times to me on various days, not in a while though. Not sure what the cause is but I have had a few songs do it.

Nice one whoever shacked it. That was dammed impressive, doing all those crazy ups, gaps and drops whilst having the distraction of fast flowing water below you, Awesome.

Is it possible for either of you two to send it to simon or anyone with a trials-shack account, otherwise it'll be saturday night before I get it. Don't mean to pressurise or anything though, however it would be nice. Cheers

Nice vid to watch, glad to finally see footage of the hop idol. Good riding lads, well done Andy P. Look forward to 2 and 3 Cheers

Now I'm struggling with the you cont ol r one. It says say what you see, and I have. Anyone got it?

On the you just me one, anybody care to shed some light. I've tried every combo I can think of.

I used to search the wholesale + job lots area on ebay then buy stuff off there and sell it for more at school or different places. Also had a paper round, but gave it up when school started becoming more pressured.

BMX park was very impressive, Scotty Cranmer Pulled 2 or 3 front flips, aswell as attempting a double tailwhip backflip 3 times, but didn't get it in the end. He's a bit good for 16. I couldn't work out who it was on the Koxx 26", I'd forgotten Gilles had moved to koxx, makes sense now. Had a good day in all. Cheers

I got an autograph off Ot Pi and Cesar, my top trials ambition is completed. Was good today, I really want to have a go on that course. Good riding lads, good luck tommorow.
