To answer your question... This is my oppinion of what i think about trials now.
Ok everything has changes etc... But trials is not the same from back in 2003 when i started the days when parts n componentry were safe as houses. 24"'s were possibly not as popular since edd tongue/danny holryod started riding them. When people see a lot of riders who ride 24's like danny mac n all other inspired riders... there riding is good and they have a nice style to it dont get me wrong but a lot of the public out there are getting the idea that our sport is bmx which it isnt and since then people have started turning there riding style into a hardtail street/bmx. Now to set a challenge for a lot of the big riders out there i think it would be quite interesting to see someone like neil tunnicliffe or damon watson to do a vid like danny macs and danny mac to do a full on TGS vid. Basically what my point is people are evolving the sport slowly to a bmx style ok i think its cool to try new things and a different style. but trials aint the same :/
Thanks Andy
