crash does equal excitment.. but out of all the runs in competions a crash is more likely to happen when a guy is coming in to land from 40 foot air instead of doing a circle wheelie going 2mph a hour right?

EXACTLY my point!
watch CP or AC farius. the SMALL amount of time they DO do circles, they are either REAL tight fast sitdown, or no handed.
the really technical slow circle tricks will only impress those who know exactly what's going on.

FMX started as the racers just doing tricks if they won a race.
if you had a bunch of motoGP racers stunting F4i's after a race, you beat your *** stunting would be bigger.

yes they do "stunt"
but on average, it's a power wheelie. or a power seat stander, or a power raplh louie.
you don't see them rolling +500 foot stoppies on the striaght away, or busting fast circles.
