    Sponsorship

    If you weren't a skater, you wouldn't know of Elissa Steamer (unless you'd played THPS games (Y)), so demanding that I should know the names of famous people from other sports is gayer than you (Y)

    Sponsorship

    Fox sponsor quite a few girl riders (they even did a 'big' roadtrip with them all), and they too are mostly turd. Same goes for their female MTB riders. Just check out Fox's "36 for 36" video results. The winning women's video was total shite. Really, really piss poor...
  3. Sure it's not just the fact that she's probably f**king easy that isn't attracting you to her more Dave? (Y)

    People Say...

    It's possible to go out and have an...er..."phat" time without having to be going after girls though (Y) I've had some super fun nights just meeting up with my brother and my friends and just talking shit 'n' playing pool 'n' stuff...
  5. IF you mean the big b*****d 22t one, then yeah, it will. However, if you mean the 'UCI' rings, then no, because they go onto splines on the Tensiles' arms.
  6. After Afghanistan, you'd have thought they'd have learnt that the weird men with a goat in some caves typically beat the billions (probably trillions) of dollars/pounds of military hardware :-\ Still seem to think "More money = more success" though.
  7. Haha, reminds me of the South Park episode where Russell Crowe is trying to start a fight with someone bigger than him. It's something like... Russell Crowe: "I've decided I'm going to fight cancer." Later on. Russell Crowe: "I couldn't find cancer, so I'm going to fight someone with cancer."
  8. It's the same as just doing normal gaps 'n' shit though, although bunnyhop gaps feel sketchier to me. But yeah, focus on doing them up stuff. You'll get used to the control you'll need to do them, and the technique itself, then you can fire 'em off over gaps...
  9. Hmm, I was thinking it could've been a low front end making it harder to do, but that doesn't sound too bad really... Just practise it, I guess. I spent a while learning to do manuals and the basic sort of bunnyhop technique. Bunnyhopping stuff's damn good fun though; that wall's loads easier to bunnyhop than pedal-up!
  10. What bar and stem setup do you have?
  11. Jeez, talk about your stereotypical chav-looking girl :P
  12. I couldn't do it either, at all. Then I just did a 20"-ish wall, then 3ft, then worked up from there. It's really not too bad if you just get the technique on a small wall. After that, it's just more speed and more oomph.
  13. Cold (like your girlfriend's heart :P).

    "guess Who™"

    Let's just hug it out, losers :P
  15. http://www.putfile.com/media.php?n=Bunnyhop-up Dunno how well that works, but it's just a little video of a bunnyhop slowed down so you might be able to get an idea of how it works. Sorta... It's just confidence. Just go for it. Start small, work up. Practise practise practise. All that stuff :P Argh... Putfile's shit. Megaupload link: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=203D6YUQ
  16. The newly-created Israelis however DID agree to it, then got funded and armed by us and the US (and a select few other countries), then decided to take more of Palestine. So the whole issue there is down to them wanting more, despite agreeing to what they had. This isn't opinion, this is fact. Compare the proposed site to the one now and you will see that their territory HAS expanded, and seeing as the coalition who were trying to sort out a place for the Jews to go to just chose Palestine themselves, it seems like a bit of a shitty deal to the Palestines. And yes, there are constantly revenge attacks. The militants even call them revenge attacks. You can't possibly expect me to believe there aren't when there blatantly are!

    "guess Who™"

    It might be fake though (N) Ah well, I thought it was funny either way...

    "guess Who™"

    Well, some people have said it's false, so who knows? Drama drama. Surely that means the tension's increased, so you'll have even more joygasms.

    "guess Who™"

    If it makes you feel better Sam, someone's put "Spoiler Inside" in the title now so it's people's own gamble as to whether it might spoil something for them (N)

    Bent Link

    I really wouldn't run it if you've had to bend links back. It's going to have put stress through the plates and rollers and the chain pins, which are things you don't really wanna stress in the way you are doing it. If your bike shop is half decent they might have a few spare links of chains out back (We do (N)), so you might strike gold there. Surely you had some when you first got the chain? Or have you just lost them? Either way, could try asking for a coupla links from people on here?
