Rusevelt Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 (edited) Vid was a little short but never the less creative with the camera angles and riding lines loved that little 180 gap from the uni-trialster. Camera lens looked dirty during some of those sequences. Edited June 3, 2009 by Rusevelt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason222 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 (edited) On the 26 this time, saw the hate on the other thread...I switch often.You look rusty on both I think you looked fine on the mod. The mod seems to look like it fits you better dimension wise. The stock looks too long for you. I'd put the Hydroxx parts on it if I were you...haha.I expected something a little longer! Only one clip of matt? haha. I might make it to ontario sometime this summer if there's another ride.

basher Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 to be honest thats the least impressive riding ive seen of you. i ust to love your style on the simtra and just as much on the hydroxx and the riding was always impressive. afraid i just felt you didn't get on with the bike and wern't going as big or with the same style. still better than me though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesb Posted June 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 james your style is gone!Whats up riding to much bmx?For 6 years all i did was train to be world champion. Most of it was not fun at all. I got 2nd place in Italy, and found out that there was no prize money. I payed for flight, hotel, everything, even my canadian jersey, and got nothing back. If I lived in europe, sure I would keep training like I did. But at this time there is no reason for me to do that. If I want to compete I need to waste thousands of my own money to do so. On the other hand, I can do demos with the skill I allready have and make money, not loose it.Now, I ride what makes me happy. BMX does. Simple. I still ride trials at group rides, comps, and demos, because that is when I enjoy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched you in Italy and belgium last year and was impressed by your massive ability and determination too. It would be good to see that from you again but it does take a lot of $$$$$$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
