You think - just high BB lets him do that??? IMO - you wrong... yesterday he does side hop on 9 trays! - if he couldn't do sidehop - high BB can't help him.. My friend Melnik - show me once how he can ride trials on Jamis Ranger SX. (it's bad xcountry bike) and it was not worse his adamant riding! sides, pedalups, gaps - ets.
