No-one. But a hell of a lot of people would WANT them.

Not in itself. Having a mod with brakes, and a brakeless 24 is the dogs danglies though. Ever get bored of riding the local spots, the brakeless is just an entirely different game. Opens your eyes SO much, and with a crazy different geometry it's a breath of fresh air too. (Read: Loughborough's shite. Don't come here ) It's true. I'm a basher, sometimes

Haha! No. Sorry. Degrees, good man. I reckon I'd be not much over 45".

Hiya. f**k you Krisboats. I intended on recording a few different locations for each of them, but got massively impatient. The main thing I wanted to boast about is that I tapped the Coust Walls, but I can't be bothered to go back and film it. Believe me or not, I care little - I'm showing off, and that's all that matters (That isn't me trying to be one of those dicks who says "nothing special - just a load of crap really" - I'm really rather chuffed. If I thought it was shit, I wouldn't be uploading it, would I? Hint hint, pricks.) Anyway - recorded over two days; one on the mod, one on the Leeson. P.S. I thought to try something a bit different with the mod section, editing-wise. Apologies if you don't like it. Edit: I forgot to say - I'm not going fully brakeless, it's just a bit of fun on the side. If you're thinking it's not particularly imaginative - that is why. Stop hatin' on brakeless boys. It's SERIOUS fun. Also hoping the quality will go up after processing. It wasn't great, but it sure as hell wasn't THAT bad

It doesn't make me feel too great reading through this thread hearing about what you guys sit and watch.

Giving him frames'n'shit. Y'know... People could really do without that hassle.

I'm just heading up the learning curve too. Start on slanted walls, or even a mini-ramp in a skate-park was a decent start I'm by no means in a position to instruct on this - I can only get them at about 75* max - but I'd say the same as Ali C. Agree with Mr. Johns, too. Somehow I find my brakeless 609 easier to hook than my Levelboss mod, which has rather good brakes. Edit: I've been attempting them for about 3 months, and can't take a vertical wall seriously. Just seems totally out of this world.

Tomorrow? I'm game any day of these two weeks, except Easter Sunday, and the following weekend. Wed/Thurs/Fri I won't be around 'till 2ish though - but I know the place relatively well. Can meet you there if I get a number.
-
Cool looking bike ...Except the bars. Flat bars just look absolutely horrific, to me.
-
Super cool! Why not get his face etched into the backings, too! Seriously... Are they his signature backings? Look like regular TNNs to me.
-
Sounds like you're already set for options, but my answer was Ed Potts
-
I'm gonna side with Mr. Hynes on this one. Fair enough, if you can afford it, get two bikes... A comp one and a training one, or whatever. At that level, it's just a waste of money, especially as they could ride pretty much the same.
-
Thanks for the responses guys. Any more? Need as many as possible please. Consider this an appreciative bump
-
I had some, and the O-rings just sort of... dissolved. Either way - if you loose the O-rings or whatever, just stick some bluetac down the hole, then whack it straight back on. Works incredibly well.
-
Me, Ben , Josh and PhatMike should be there. Where do you meet now that WhiteWalls are gone?
-
I thought he was going due to savaging Toby?

So one of my assignments has centered itself around rhythm. More specifically, different methods of construction. Click Me Edit: Cocked up the link. The four rhythms have been composed using different methods. Just 5 quick questions to answer please: (1) Please place write out the letters of the examples in order of your preference - first being the best, last being the worst. (2) Try to explain why you chose the first in the list as your favorite. (3) Do you prefer a complex, or simple rhythm in the music you listen to through choice? (By "simple", I mean like dance, or pop music. Not at all like: "HURR DURR HE LISSENZ 2 DANSE HEZ STOOPID LAWL". I hope you'll understand what I'm asking for - I don't quite know how to word it.) (4) Are you a musician? (5) What genre of music do you most often listen to? (Name ONE, please. Most listened to at the moment, most of on your MP3 player, most played overall - I don't mind how you come to your decision, but just one genre please.) Thanks a bunch P.S. - before you suggest a poll - 'cause I KNOW someone will () I need to be able to draw conclusions like "Musicians prefer complex rhythms" etc, and polls are anonymous.

20:17 Pretty light - but got used to it.

Ah... But we HAVE seen this guy before. It is he: That "to-front-down-the-length-of-the-rail" guy.

You're going to stop riding street, because people say you're trying to be Danny Mac? f**k that, man. They're just jealous of what you can do. If TGS were the thing to have taken riders by storm, and you switched to that, they'd try slating you for trying to be Tunnicliffe. Nowt wrong with wanting to ride like someone else - least of all someone that good. I'd say stick with it - you've obviously got the head for it.
-
You lot really need to start signing out of each others' accounts (Assuming that WASN'T Adam replying on Ali's behalf...)
-
HEY. STOP THAT. The more you ride those banks, the more "O.K" Mr. Chinnery will think it is to do so.
-
f**king hell man. That up to front off the bollard outside the 300 Spartans is enormous! My friend lives opposite it, so I walk past it now and then - and thought JOKINGLY about the dropgap. Upwards? f**k you
-
Seriously... You can't ask people to answer that. It's down to how you want to ride Only people other than you that could answer that is anyone you ride with a LOT, as they MIGHT know which'd suit your style more.
