Czar-rider Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) Well after riding street and was getting fed up so i went back to natural and i loved it, it felt easier to do things and i felt good being somewere where there wasn't any chavs saying " wheres your seat mate, n how much do they cost " Edited February 17, 2008 by Czar-rider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt rushton Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Yeah right....You've expirienced that havn't you ? Danny. He proberly hasn't but you can't say that natural isnt as scary as street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peperami Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Natural is more rewarding. If you havnt already, try it and see... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Natural is for fags with piss light bikes who don't like heights. I will never change ever. Street is the best. Hopping across a few rocks or a 8ft gap to a rail, I know what would scare shit outta me more and thats what trials is about, been scared of the stuff your trying. Danny. Trials for me is about enjoying riding my bike, I prefer natty because you never ride the same section twice, your line can be only slightly different, like inches off but it could be slippier, bumpier, whatever. I'm a pretty puffy guy though, I never got better at jumps because I was scared to push myself. Yeah right....You've expirienced that havn't you ? Danny. Probably has, he's been around enough times.

Dave Anscombe Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Street is cool but natty just owns ..nothing pleases me more than hours and hours of endles lines......big big rocks are soooooo the way to go street is more to progress in one move.mine is the sidehop......if i want to get bigger sidehops il go try it out on the street Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough you hate natural, but there is no need to abuse the people who love it and you should give them respect. For me I like both street and natural and ride both.

cai Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 I've always loved street, but it's getting boring now! Natural on the other hand, you never ride the same section twice. You can create different lines to suit your style, and its much more satisfying when you accomplish a hard line. Also the angles of different rocks make a change from the flat surfaces of street. So basicly I'm better at street, but natty's so fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Hops_Alot Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 I think natural is great and i'm crap at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planet x alan Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 I'm easy going to be honest. I always end up trying streety sorta moves on natural trials and natural sorta moves on street. But for natural i'm a summer person. I cant stand riding in the mud on the slippy rocks. I have to admit though, natural does take up a lot more energy, and i think another reason why a lot of people don't like riding natural is because you normally use the more boring moves of trials like trackstanding and bunny hops forwards (no idea if theres a proper name for these). Whereas street, everything is so perfect so you can do the 360 rock walks and gaps to rails and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbra Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 I solved all the problems and started to ride bmx instead. On street i found there was a better atmosphere, I just had the piss taken out of me when i rode natty, i was never good at trials, but whenever i went to a street ride i found people that were alot better than me would still talk to me and have a good laugh. Yet if i went to ride Natty the only people that really spoke to me and didn't take the piss were Danny, Dave and Ash Butler, and Rob Poyser. And thats probably because were all from stoke. All in all, just ride where you have the most fun riding your bike, after all, thats what its there for is it not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Meh, i cant stand natty...too many weird angles and slippery surfaces...give a smooth 90* edge any day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cam217 Posted February 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 so you see what im getting at there is a wide range of commetnts but if you read them all it seems to be on the natty side of things and some people might say doing a 8ft gap to rail is scary try doing it to a pointy rock of an uneven surface were you can not get all of your power down. and like many have said inc me street after a while gets slightly boring unless you ride a differnt place every week, but keep them coming cameron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abtrials Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 i like both equaly really, i love the chalenge of natural, and the fact it has so much lines in a small space, also i love street riding because you can measure progress morebut at the end of the day if you ride both, you improve both aspects of riding, ie balance is improved much more riding natural, so is the general control of your bike and the size and distance is improved much more doing street, so in turn they both compliment each other.but usualy the people that hate natural, love themselves and like to boast that they can tgs 2 inches higher/further than you (unless you do proper street riding spins etc) - personal opinion obviously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattB Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 I like a good mixture of both.I probably ride street more due the nearest good set of rocks being 2 hour train jouney away.Naturals fun in groups when you can make little lines and stuff.ThanksMatt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve@banbury-trials Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 cant say that i've rode natural all that much,but it is rewarding when i've had the chance.steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andeee Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Well i would agree with some that natural is challenging and takes a lot of balance espicially in comps. I ride natural only like 4-6 times a year and thats just the local smcc comps in my area. I find natural fun and a very creative style of riding when its good weather. When you go in the wrong weather you just literally sink into the mud etc... Street is very fun gives you the adrennalin or however its spelt. Id say street 65% Natural 35% Thats my answer to hard to decide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny.To be honest Danny your the fag, you've got no respect for anyone. (except the god in your life which is Damon)Just because you brought a video with some pretty big moves in it, it doesn't give you the right to slag off other people, which you don't now, and that are clearly better than you.And you wonder why no one likes you.

Haha. How dare you. You met me once at like Leeds. Which we never even spoke. I don't slag people off just because i brought out a video. There's alot of riders i respect and some of which are Natural riders. I just don't like to ride Natural myself, Just find it boring to be honest. Yeah i look up to Damon and i respect him alot, He influences me to ride alot, Is there anything wrong with having an ambition to be at the level of someone else. Sorry if i put my point across in a too violent manor.Peace.Danny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex@Flawless Bikes Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Street is clearly better becasue you can ride near places that give you food, like subway! Drool ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
