:::natyrider::: Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 Hi all,I have been riding tgs for a while now and I find it so boring! So I went riding at my local rocks and it is so much better! I found and I have heard this same saying before, that no two rocks are the same. I find this such a good fact as street riding, yes fair enough no two walls are the same but rocks are so unique in their own way. What are your views on it?Thank YouMark M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncy H Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 I too much prefer riding natural, so much variation and like you said you don't get bored. Also the spots are usually out of the way and there is no one there to move you or put you off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolver Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 I think I'd really enjoy natural trials, but Nottingham is pretty toss for it. I've got a car now though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bob Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 so many lines in natural and i believe its much more challenging to ride. Pedal kicks have to be perfect on the tip of a rocck and it adds to the excitement. It may not look as good, but who cares when you should ride for your own enjoymentm not to show off.Natty rules !

:::natyrider::: Posted August 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 I love street as it is all i have ever ridden, but i just find rocks more interesting.Mark M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fruitbat Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 Its all down to personal preference. Street looks bigger and better (and is more for showing off and going big), but natural requires another level of balance/accuracy and is much more technical. (more for those who ride for themelves rather than going big on't street)I have also found street is much more forgiving than natural.When I rode properly I preferred natural 90% of the time, but there were times when I just couldn't be bothered with rocks and wanted to ride a 90 degree, flat edge wall.Frooty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin555 Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 i prefer natural the whole reason i stoped bmx and started trials was because id had enough of street spots.street now and again but natural for the win :] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callumbreakwell85 Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 I think I'd really enjoy natural trials, but Nottingham is pretty toss for it. I've got a car now though.Get yourself down Elvaston castle, we used to ride down there every weekend back in the day. Plenty of rocks around there.

Luke_zoo Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 I hated natty rode street more, then one day I went to Matlock quarry and since then I like natty more then street! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trialsben Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 Natural is much more challenging imho.I'd really like to see some good street riders ride wet muddy rocks and bankings and see how they'd get on with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
