I'm getting bored
of seeing the same tricks every day. No hands/nth looks cool in still pics, but gets boring to watch for more than 30 seconds. Circles are cool for about 2 revolutions before they get boring. I'd rather watch a nac nac even tho thats been boring for years. WHat do you think?
I think its cool that highchair tricks are making a comeback.

It's crazy how many people can do 12's and none of the old trick's. I think it's just because they got into the sport recently and those are the trick's that are bieng done the most. I know a few big time stunna's that cant even shift in a wheelie.

Still a huge fan of the **** Darius and his crew pull in Servin it up 1. Like in the same wheelie going from standing to seat to tank to seat to pegs and so on. That **** still amazes me when I watch it.

Yep, I'm so sick of seeing circles that I don't even want to learn them. Just goes back to the point of having to be a good all around rider. We don't have any good "spots" to ride and nobody else can do slow **** around here so we just been tearing up the streets and highways lately. I love rocking it slow on the highway and holding up traffic.

Im a newbie. And I myself want to learn everything. But I first would like to learn the slow stuff, just for the reason ride in front of my house sometimes, and the spots I go to arent really for high speed stuff.
But the thing is, Im not trying to be one sided when it comes to the sport. I looking to be a well rounded rider. And after attending the stuntlife stunt show, the crowd is not into all this slow stuff. They want the high speed stuff that they would see on a highway.
Same thing goes for freestyle moto-x, last year the back flip was some sick shiot. But now everytime you see a event on TV, it seems everybody is throwing it in their runs...
And it is pretty sad everytime you come on stuntlife, all you see is thread talking about"how I looped a 12"... I mean its because people are to much in a hurry to try everything new for braggin rights. But yet, they arent learning the full effect of stunting. Anybody can work up the nerve to try to drag, but if you aint got no control or style, that shiot wont matter.
Hell, I try to work on rear brake control and throttle control in my everyday riding. Not just trying to learn it while on one wheel, but trying to learn it while on both wheels too.

true i still rock only -1 in the front. learnin all the old school stuff and the new trash makes you a much more balanced and much much much more entertaining of a rider. If your non riding friends get bored when they come out and watch cause all you can do is one group of things then you aren't well rounded enough

Who cares who gets bored...I'm sure none of you started doing tricks to impress people on the sidelines...I know I didnt...Unless your tryin to be the #1 stunna do tricks that you like.
#19
who cares if something is old or not....Do what you want to do, just please yourself, If you live life trying to make everyone happy, your not gonna get very far and respect.
WELL ROUNDED IS my #1 goal.
I dont care if burnouts and doughnuts are gay....I LOVE buring tires off. I can do doughnuts for hours !!! Some people think they are gay....I LOVE EM
Servin it up is by far my favorite stunt vid....A wide varity of stunts.....I CAN WAIT FOR THE SECOND
