We might wanna slow down on all these wheelies and acros too...you never know, someone might get hurt.
And as for the same people winning, who cares....they're winning because they are pushing themselves to be the best...I dont know about anyone else but seeing someone kick my *** at anything makes me practice my *** off to come back and do better.

there are only a few people that are good enough to roll over 600 feet from a 300 foot approach and there are only a few guys that are good enough to win individual freestyle so if some one doesn't like that then that some one needs to step up and push the limmits....

Re: Whats happening to the Stoppie game?
i couldn't win a longest stoppie contest but if they went the other way at stuntwars in lakeland i could probably get top 3 on a good day , they run the stoppie comp so the track slopes down to the left and all the roads are slopped down to the right so i feel more comfy going the other way like the roads

Man, then I'd really be thrown off.
Like it matters though, on a good day with no slope I could maybe hit
100ft
