Some from today, nice and hot here in the winter. Just screen grabs from putting my phone on the ground and filming. Only took 5 months of trying different set ups to get this gu feeling like a nice bike...my first high bb bike.

Yeah he is very short for a 29 year old.

90% of that video was amazing. Wait 100%, i am being truthful. Hater 24boy put out a video, I'm sure that will shut a lot of people up.

Yessssss

The real question is does it leak like water...

Enjoys the black and white and the music in this quite a bit. relaxed that one indoor? Pool looks like good dangerous fun

Looks like that lever might take all your money orders then declare bankruptcy without giving you any of the products you gave it money for. I wouldn't trust it, I'm sure small handed tiny humans appreciate the long lever blade- I'll stick to my non mushy 2005 magura all black short lever blade, my arms are real humans arms that have enough leverage built in for maximum squeezing powers with such an "inferior" design. Hard to reinvent the wheel. Pengy penguins pengin profoundly.

Technically amazing, seems as if you ride a show every day. music made me want to get randy with some poppers in the red light district I think you need to try some psychedelic drugs or have one too many pints to loosen up and gain some soul in your riding. It's like the kid who gets 100% in all class work, no one really likes his perfection. All textbook, no surprises or new avenues.

I can perfectly tell his age from his name, thanks.

Wow how old is the kid on the blue mod? Amazing bike handling skills for what looks like a 12 year old.

Unicycle shown in under 10 seconds, quickly quickly hit back button.

That was pretty good. Staples the most amazing person to film... Og 24"

Almost two minutes of intro. Jump cuts everywhere, ADD editing , painful music. Barbed wire titles... Couldn't get past 3 minutes, too scared I'll have to go to the doctor for an std if I watch all 9 minutes.

Appreciate it, and stealing it. Just switched from arcade bars to Trialtech carbons, tried the rolled foreword thing and it's great for anything up to front... But makes the bike completely unrideable at high speeds. Can't ride a bike that can't be ridden in the true sense of what a bike is.

Crazy rocks in the last one. All looks great fun. Blue bike man brake scares me in the first few, you guys roll with tons of tar? Could you post a picture of your bar angle? Looks like an appropriate old school roll back a bit as opposed to the wrist and style killing shit we see today.

Refreshing to see someone smooth on a pogo stick... Thought I was watching Felix for a second, vee brake rear ?

Hilarious that people don't know what euro style is with a video like that, do they have it on mute? Would hate to see them riding. riding was ok, I couldn't get through it, but I do want to go get some poppers and check out my local gay bar. Hopefully a drone will film me as I try to fit something I could never dream of fitting into my ass.

Here's a video of today's ride- two hours in some hot "fall" heat. It's a new to me pogo stick, trying to ride it like a real trials bike- 145/25 stem with arcade bars feels proper for bunny hops etc. not a fan of the pogo progression of this sport.

Been well over a decade since I've seen anything from Ed tongue... Would love to see a new film from him, bummer about Chris but he's not a ghost from the past like mr tongue... good to hear he's still riding.

My pogo. Professional paint job. Love the set up right now, took a while to feel ok with the bar/stem... ~3mm spacers under bonz 145x25 stem with arcade bars rolled a bit "forward" for my normal liking. Bunnyhops very easily at least for a pogo, don't need to pedal kick to get to rear... did just buy some things to go to a new set up, 150x30 stem and some other Trialtech bars... We will see. Cutting the fork when I get settled, destroyed my knee last night on a failed sidehop with those top spacers.

Trials is defined as riding your bike over obstacles. James does this with such fluidity and style some people have a problem viewing it as trials... You cannot be fluid on most peoples hop hop pogo bikes, but let's face it the most interesting part of one of the last World Cup videos (not the championships) was jack carthy manualling off that rock into a manual through the end tape. No one said "hated that bmx shit he pulled" they smiled and were stoked on his skills. James has proven in the past that he can slay comp trials, do insanely huge gaps/ups... It is beyond understandable that he got burnt out on that scene and riding style and went into bmx for new feelings of joy while riding. I'm so happy he is back to show us how great a meld of comp and bmx is... To me this is pure trials, actually RIDING your bike up and over anything you can- if you have the skills throw them in there. Many people who say "that's so bmx" are people who cannot ride this way, only can hop, side hop, gap, up to front... Once they get their bike to a good speed they can only hit the brakes - stop then start hopping. I RIDE biketrials. Just my old mentality I guess... I remember Lenosky breaking his crank/ rim on a failed massive bunnyhop gap in evolve - that was some "bmx shit" I guess... That's just how it was, you had a stock bike with 5 gears and you rode it- they weren't made to hop. rant over... Keep on slaying james

The French really do make good cheese.

2001: the Vail worlds in Colorado, they had the traditional rock sections then one in the main area that was all wood and more "ramp"ish... The hardest part of all the sections was here, a wooden built "half pipe" where the riders had to drop in from one box and make it to the other side up to another box. Practically no one could do this, I would say the average 15 year old bmxer could do it with style. People were just pedal kicking down to the bottom then trying to get up it, many failed to drop into the transition and just ate it. The Coustelliers personal videos, and taste, have always been poor. Only when someone else gets behind the camera can we experience their riding for what it is (was?)...Even then they were forcing people to use linkin park songs only... ... my cell phone films in 1080, this was an abomination.

Perhaps in another 5 years Or whenever something interesting makes its way through LA...

Glad you guys all like it Basically he got off a plane, got this new 24" bike and went for a ride...I just borrowed a 7d from a friend (never used it ever for filming) and we went off- him on his first ride of the bike and me on the first use of the camera...If Kenny dedicated himself to street style I think we would see some truly amazing things. And yes, I did put in 'the scorpion' on purpose for the OGs who could pick it up!
