Hey guys!
This is 100% natural riding. It is old footage, shot last fall. I don't think it is good enough for a full video, so I just made a short one out of it.
It is getting warmer, so there will be much better videos on the way.
Music is a bit different...but I like it. By Amon Amarth.

Really happy that you like some of them!
U of T and JamesB simtra are my best I think, have a look.

The SPA competition video. Crazy courses and much emotion from the riders.

You can throw on one of your old broken hangers. It is only needed to give a flat surface for the axle bolt to grip.
-
Yes my tensioner really works! It works much better now with tape in place of the U-bolt. I have used it in every one of my videos, and for much over a year with no problems, except for the end piece being knocked off maybe twice, but it is glued back on easily enough. Try it and post pics haha!

I will never go back to a der/hanger.
It is a few pieces of spring metal that I found in the trash at home-depot bent so that there is tension. On the end is a nylon slide in a U shape that I glued together from peices I had laying around, it is glued to the metal. Now, instead of using a fat U-bolt to hold it to the frame I just use electrical tape, looks much cleaner.

Working towards going to the '07 Uci worlds. Not official yet but I'm almost sure I'm going.
Maybe see you there!
Craig, I don't know what camera was used, sorry. Kevin Packer would know on OTN.

canada has tons of pure trials riders. atleast 4,000
Really?
Must all be out west then. I haven't ridden with more than 100 Canadian riders in my life!
Neil or Damon have to put out a natty video, that would solve this.

Ok, my taps are improving really fast, I am at around 54inches, not sure exactly.
The hook in the video is my record, somewhere around 63 inches judging by where it came up to on me? I'll have to bring out a measuring tape next time haha.
Thanks guys!

Why Are You Still Riding?
in Trials Chat
Posted
I have always been into extreme sports, and biking was the main one. I went from flatland tricks to street riding to BMX to dirt jumping and then finally trials. Trials is the only type that stuck. I have been riding trials almost every day for 4 years now, and I still can't get enough!
It must be because it is very easy to see every little improvement I make on the bike, this keeps me going. Plus the "oohs" and "ahhhs" from other people are awesome
