Impressive!!!  :biggthumpup:

I used to ride BMX but damn, it takes riding to a whole different level to make the leap from 20" to 24" bike and pull off the same tricks. That was some impressive riding skills right there.

Holy crap  :yikes:  Kinda makes Zaya bunnyhopping onto picnic tables look weak, even though I could never get half that high.
  
I'm not hip enough to put the video right in the post, but here's a guy from oroville who's a friend of another board member.  Pretty impressive riding as well!    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TE6xzT6GkAs

If he ever makes the jump to trials bikes he's in for a few world championships!

that video was awesome  :thumbs:  these are my boys   :king:   the whole place was built with spades flats and lots of love, about 4 acres of down hill jumps. the 2 dudes in the first 57 seconds are riding one continuous line. <notice how many times they pedal>    1min 42 seconds in 360flip/barrel roll  :cool:  east coast trail scene at its best

I used to ride BMX and did some downhill Mtn. biking, but I wish I had half the talent those guys have.  That looks like a lot of fun if you can ride it.
