  1. I got the impression from the first post that it was a game that was comming out. If its been made by a student then I have more respect for it.

    sexcellent!! nice to see riders from down south who I never get to see much and places I need to ride (saw LOADS of lines that I wanna do! ) Nice that I was in for two clips...shame you didnt get my crash though thanks very much for that, very nice of you
  3. cant go wrong with either the onzaz or zoos, both are top bars.
  4. I agree, I get very bored of vids pople just doing the same thing over and over. it doesnt need to be natual to have sections, but just that more than move per clip on street would be nice.
  5. my pair are stiff but they are old, not even that soft rubber too
  6. in this order Ashton justice Echo control/onza limey koxx kenney beleay those are the best stock frames That I recken are out there and are affordable, please please dont be tempted to go high bb, a few people might like them, but personally I think they are crap.
  7. I have always wondered about rock climbing shoes, but I dont recken it will be any good....they are too stiff I recken and grip would be debatable. Please dont get monty or tryall shoes, get some decent ones like 661 dually takis, or 5ten high shoes....they have the same super tacky soals that climbing shoes have and have 10 x better ankle support than any trials specific shoes (they look dam nice too)
  8. I ride 26" I have found its all the young riders or people who havnt been into trials for long are the types that go for 20" Now this is ok if your small, but I feel most are riding 20" because they find it easier, I think thats a bad thing to do....you kinda get skill handed to you on a plate with 20". a 26" takes a little more work, but it really teaches you vital skills, its worth it in the end. Another reason I think 26" is better is that you get MUCH more satisfaction out of it. Say you sidehop 45" on a mod and then do it on a stock, you will feel better for doing on the stock because its harder....thats just how I feel anyway. Also, 26" is more suitable for other types of riding, dh, jumping, bmx etc, get most bang for your buck with stock
  9. doesnt look great to me, infact looks pretty poor its not really gonna be a real game is it? just doesnt look proffesional enough
  10. 360 front pivots twisty stoppies backwards manuals

    Music!?

    indi for me I guess... my fave are Radiohead (ledgends!) blur (also ledgends!) coldplay (ledgends again!) Flaming lips (you've guessd it...ledgends!) Badly drawn boy (what a ledgend!) super furry animals (how can they not be ledgends!) TWAT (<made up band) Muse (holey cow....what ledgends!) Modest mouse (ledgendary!) Queen (uber ledgends!) EELS (ledgends for sure!) Doves (great ledgends!) arcade fire (newly made ledgends!) batty watty bimbo bob (<another made up band) supergrass (hoooweee, what ledgends!) the avalanches (good) just my top fave bands that I kinda like I guess (ps, you guys have bad music tastes!! )
  12. I have heard of a few people running the eccentric hubs with no problems Also I think the diablus bars have loads of backsweep, I dunno what you like but I aint a fan....they might be ok tilted forwards though? if your gonna be using an 18tooth on the rear, I would try and find a 21 tooth front cog, ask the tart, I know he used to run one.
  13. look into sdg i beam seats and posts, they are a lot lighter than railed seats, so can have more padding...look nice too.
  14. theres no reason why you cant stay at college AND become a pro?
  15. indeed I did kids!! it does fit, but I remember it being a little tight fit, doesnt flap about like a normal lever, but the springs in the brake normally sort this and it wasnt noticable.
  16. natural for sure!! street is too repetative, a 45" wall is like every other 45" wall. There are no two rocks the same. Street is easy, nice flat grippy surfaces to ride on. natural is harder, irregular surfaces often covered in mud, moss or dust. I am very much into comps, I love the challengs and rules, makes it more fun.
  17. either heatsink or bonz are what you want, heatsinks are cheaper and easier to get, but the bonz are a bit more adjustable.
  18. I dont tend to take much if anything with me on rides, too much clutter.
  19. ben savage for sure!!!!! thats only in the uk though.
  20. I started 7 years ago gt alvalanch xc bike merlin crap jump frame built up pashley monty 20" a brisa 26" got another one when the first one snapped another monty 20" monty 26" echo pure global titanium echo hi fi echo control short echo control long now on an Ashton Justice
  21. I can see it classes as advertising. are they friends of yours? can I come over?
  22. well, I have never done a smooth grind, but I recken only just touch the grinder on the rim, just enough so it marks it, but no more.

    you dont need a mental illness to think pythons ride like crap
  24. on sharp grinds you will be lucky to get a week from them. I found mine worked really well on a smooth or slightly ground rim, give everything a clean and try them again
