    Island Style

    The moves are out dated, you. The only pro riders there, that are still around, are Morley Wilkins, Mike Bentham and John Webster, at least from the top of my head. Bentham is just a freakin' smooth rider, and Webster has been dominating the competitions. I've ridden with all three but webster. But you, I got this movie a long time ago, it was the first one basically, that I ever had. I thought it was the shit. I still look at it sometimes just for kicks. I agree though, the intro is pretty long. Check out John Webster and Morley's section. Completely sick cheers
  5. this fellow is like 6'3 though. it'll be short for him. he should go for the vinco! the RAVen is an awesome frame. i tried chris's Bt, and even though it was above my head when i was on my rear, it still feels so nice. go for it. cheers
  6. he's german blood. european!! came over to the us like in his twenties? he's an amazing rider. check out his site http://www.hansrey.com/ the people that have heard of him, know that he's a legend. the people that don't (usually the younger/newer riders), dont' have a clue who he is.
  7. i live near some people who went to that comp - i didn't go becuz i had to freaking work!!! they said he was a little rusty the first time around, but for the final round, he was smooth, all tech. no thing big, nothing fancy, but smooth and flowing. he's also really friendly - he went down and had some breakfast with all the riders in the village, as if he wasn't some super star. i wish i was there - that mans is a living legend. cheers, juan
  8. Hey man. I PMed you as well anyways, i live close to UVic, and even closer to willows beach (hope u know where both of those are.) i'm just getting into some natural riding, but urban is great when u live close to uvic. check ur mail box! cheers
  9. AWESOME. We should go riding sometime - i'm from victoria as well. i just recently got a Koxx Caisso Replica. Rides smoothly, and cause i'm short, it's perfect for me.
  10. I sand papered my rim once or twice. Depends what kind of sand paper you use. I got the roughest kind. The only good that comes out of it, is that if you're applying tar, tar goes on easier, and not as messy if u were to apply it onto a grind. Agreed though. Grinds are where it's at.
  11. thanks for all ur input! i heard it snaps as well - it is super light, but i also go it for 600 canadian dollars, and they're about 1000 canadian dollars. again, super light, but it seems like it ocudl break. i'm trying to be careful though. Cheers, juan
  12. I just bought the Marc Caisso Replica Koxx frame, and I love it. I'm short, so it's perfectly fit for me. But I've heard bad reviews about it, So i was just wondering on what everyone else's intake was on this frame. PS - i searched the forum before posting this - couldn't find any info on personal likes/dislikes of the frame... Juan
  13. I just realised the shipping on my bike is gonna cost me ALOT.
  14. Thanks folks. I'm counting down the days - 299 to be exact. Hopefully when I get there, I'll be decent enough <_<
  15. hey man! i have the EXACT same grips. I ride with and sometimes without gloves. how do u like them?
  16. Any body wanna help me out? Juan. ----- Ride hard - live young.
  17. I'm intending to visit the UK this July in 2006. Early planning so I can save up, and generally take this in stride. Of course, I'll be bring my trials ride. I'll be visiting a close friend who's taking a GAP year there, and so I'm visiting her at the end of her trip, so we can fly back together. Most of the time that I'll be visiting her, she'll be working, which leaves me time to RIDE. Any one know of any good riding spots situated near Cheltenham(spelling?) or Oxford? Anyone want to ride with a horrible Canadian trials rider? Plus this forum could give me a chance to learn about the area from a trials perspective - in other words, the best perspective. Thanks in advanced and cheers. Juan. ----- Ride hard - live young.
