I agree it's a bit of a let down
but
it's still an amazing thing he did here
The rest of the vid was intersting
some part I loved some part I was a bit meh
can't stop thinking akrigg while watching
and unfortunately, chris is as good at this as kenny is at uci comp riding
-
when kenny b says it was hard to keep his balance
it's must have been quite hard to keep balance
I like how it seemed so hard to achieve
cool stuffs -

I m in love with A-ran's riding

by riding your bike a lot, the usefull muscles are already strong though
it's not like you were not training your body
but yeah I know what you mean
-
I would say it's better to learn pure skills when you re weaker
as soon as you re very strong/athletic, you may compensate actuall technique (like good leverage) with your physical ability
-
We delibirated waited and developped her balance/composure/endurace and especially technique first. Now that she has turned 18 we are going to work on her strength. The goal is not to change her style completely, she will also have the more smooth/technical style. but with the training we plan for this winter we hope she will improve a lot next season
That's the clever way to do it
plus Kenny B and Gilles Coust were never the biggest most explosive guys around, but yet they very often dominated comps
-
And pass them easily; not my point though. The best man will always reach more than the best women. That's just genetics and has nothing to do with machismo.
I agree but the fact you missed the point made by Ben made me comment
Female athletes can be as impressive as men no question
but of course, there's a reason why they compete in separate divisions
maybe my first comment started all this so I m sorry
What I meant by "She'll probably never side hop or gap silly distances but she's got serious skills"
was that, with her visible physical attribute, she ll likely never going to ride in a strong/powerfull style that I usually enjoy in trials riding,
however I still enjoys very much the way she rides her bike because of her other skills (balance, composure, endurance, etc)
I hope this videos gets more comment on her actual riding and less about her clothes choice/ men vs women athletics
She deserves it

Totally agree. I can 'do' a few, but they're all reliant on that first pull from the lats, and I don't think that really counts. I can't do them as I want to, which is fairly slowly.
You could have the same conversation about any other compound exercise, deadlifts being a fairly obvious one.
depends what you're after really
slow muscle will obviously make you super strong and efficient a these type of slow mouvement
it will also probably makes your muscle bigger
but if you do muscle up fast with help of legs/hips/lats momentum, then you ll work more on your speed/explosivity/mobility
slow muscle looks suuuper hard
but IMO they also look kind of stupid in comparasion of an awesome gymnastic kip(in terms of pure efficienty)
I know the goal is not the same though
-
I didn't liked it
then I imagined Ali C riding it
now I like it

Weight to strength ratio? Who cares about this? If people say that women won't reach the heights men do, they are right. End of story.
Some of these women will reach your heights no problem though
-
How old is she?
-
And as for the ignorant comments regarding the assumed limits of female physicality
Judging from this video she doesn't seem to have crazy strenght/bouncyness(which isn't a bad thing as she has other great skills)
but yeah some other female (such as Janine from Australia) can be really strong/powerfull
with more female involve in the sport we could for sure have the pleasure to discover some crazy female athletes

That was awesome
All I see is a very feminine young women doing a very physical and manly sport with a lot of talent and efficiency.
She'll probably never side hop or gap silly distances but she's got serious skills
I m super humbled by all that
good work guys

Between Flipp's and Ali's riding my brain was melting

Hope he's ok

The big change for me in this one is the how clean you make every lines look
it's so effortless and easy I had to watch it several time to realise how insane the riding is
love you Flipp
watch out, Ali C!

In all fairness
With a style like that, it's not easy to stay healthy
Love your style Leon, would love to see more people with similar approch of riding
stupid speed in those flips though
how did you not loose brain cells?
