  1. Clean your pads up, then grind your rim Work really well in the front a on a grind.
  2. Well thats crap. There is only clips of you and damon, and other people that aren't even from hull! Get you act together boyo
  3. Whaaa? Stop talking. You talk about sh*t. Ben Sam
  4. Damon said that jokingly, so no need to take it bad. Hope your mate gets his Zoo! back, should be glad he didnt steal your Zoo!
  5. People normally meet at the red wall, near the train station. Thats where us lot are gonna be for about 11:20
  6. Well said. The new A1 and Shitbul ride crap. They dont gap properly. Always wana loop out. I think they ride really shihihihite. Plus your too small for 1.
  7. Coustsinks. £19, and worth every penny. I've had mine on for about 2 months now, only worn a few mill, to the shape of my rim (hog - which have curved sidewalls). Work straight out of the packet. Whack em, on a new grind (doesnt have to be sharp/deeeeep). Majic pads are poor. Me mate has some and they dont hold, dont even make a loud, or trust worthy sound. Plazmatic CRM are good pads, more bite than Coustsinks, but when water touches them, your f*cked. Dont work in the wet. Cousts do!!! www.heatsinkbikes.com Not being biased, because the blue pads dont work in the rear, and i think they are pants. But SICK good in the front, for some strange reason
  8. Sony HCR-19E , Argos £200 Super Dooper cam. Buy a IEE 1394Firewire card and lead, to get the best out of ur cam.
  9. Like someone said earlier; depressing. No amazing places. Boring camera angles. Randomly riding into the camera. Looked like half arsed gaps to stuff. Didnt like it. Didnt even like the intro.
  10. Damon has gone through these rims like food. 1 new rim, with a Tarty Build, lasts about a week. And that not even doing big stuff. Not worth the money or the hype. Maybe be different for the mod rims, but i wouldnt trust em.
  11. I did used to measure sidehops all the time, to see if i could better meself, but i jus measure up no my arm. Tend to measure static flat-to-flat gaps more though, but only when they look big, or if i struggle. I prefare to go for big stuff rather than balance, spin or (boring) combo lines, because it is what i prefare. I cant really feel myself progreesing on that type of stuff. Where as on gaps/taps/sidehops you can see your self progressing and feel it.
  12. Errr.. yes they are. The second you introduce this rim to anything big, it gets scared and crumbles into a 50p like shape

    Nass 2006

    So can you camp there or not? Wanting to go this time. Will be me first Nass Site tells you fook all
  14. AND cheaper in the long run, since they are refillable.
  15. I went from a long Python, to a long Gu, and the cockpit on the Gu is longer. I prefare long bikes, but not uber long bikes. I'd rather have a 1060 Pitbul to the 1100 Pitbul/adamant/czar thingys, just because they dont gap nice. The majority of people are moving to 24'' and shorter bikes, simply because they are loosing it. They havent got the 'will power' to put the extra effort it to up themselves. Well thats what has happened in Hull, and to most people, because you're not exactly gonna see Hermance on a Leeson, or something streety, 'cos 'he got bored ov long silver bikes'. (Even though his is bright yellow.)
  16. About JT!......... well....... he isnt all their Coust Pads, available from Heatsinkbikes.com Super sick on a GRIND. So grind your rim. Its widely used for a reason. JT! was silly and bought silly pads for his grind, so it worked poo! Work in all weathers. £19 or £32 including p+p. Go buy them so your money isnt wasted.
  17. Was that aimed at me? Try to take photos that keep people guessing, like someone setting up for a drop gap/bunny hop gap/tap. Keeps people wondering ''did they or didnt they?''. Your Shipley Glen pics were cool though(Y)
  18. Coustsinks Heatsinkbikes.com £19 or £32 Go buy........nnnnnow! Substitute for Cousts....Koxx greens.
  19. Hahaha! I thought the first one was ok, didnt stand out too much though. Second one....could barely see what the rider was doing. I like pictures that keep you guessing or thinking, not sunsets, clouds, shadows, poor silhouettes.
  20. Probably because of his uncle giving him any part, any geo he desired? Alos his uncle probably helped him attend comps, train etc. to make him pro quality, to promote his company. He probably wasnt amazing straight away?
  21. I agree with Porter, Waynio and Flecth. Sponsorship isnt what it was like back when i first started. To be sponsored, you had to be sick good, like the Koxx, Megamo and Monty teams. Now companies are giving away everything to riders who aren't that good, and to those who are of less quality, to just promote their company. I suppose its good in a business sense, but it can make riders 'big-headed' or make the company seem for sponsoring poorer riders. Hermance is mainly sponsored because his uncle(?) owns Koxx, Dominique(sp?).
  22. Do they have to be 175mm? is that extra 5mm gonna do anything? Newer Tensiles? Try-all?
