Jonny Jones Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 No drugs here. He has sus forks aswell :) What is he doing ← Ryan has pretty much always used Marzocchi forks. You should try riding with sus, its so much fun! :) I interchange now between rigid and sus, keeps things interesting. But if you're not that much into hucking, then it prob wont make any difference to you, maybe more of a hinderance? Ive not seen the DVD yet, should get a copy soon though. Jonny.

Canned Posted September 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Hmm... amazing how commenting on Leech's riding appears to get people's blood up. I really don't understand how people can say his riding is repetitive.... One thing I noted about TAOTR was a particular spot that was used to demonstrate/instruct on several skills. I don't think he spins off everything, and he doesn't stick to street all the time either. I really cannot understand how people can say his riding is repetitive, boring etc. It makes me wonder if you actually paid attention to the videos to be honest?! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonny. ← i ran sus for a short time too, and it was bloody good fun, im tempted to try it again in the not too distant future when i finally build a 24 sus opens up a whole new world of possibilities i think and it helped me learn front wheel moves at a fast rate :) (im not saying you shoudlnt be able to do big stuff with rigids, sus just make sit easier to learn and do-i quickly adjusted back to rigid when i changed) trouble is weight and the way it puts the geo out on the bike-and the fact i ran mine a bit soft which made balancing difficult Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Bleech Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 interesting fact number 1 - ryan leech actually prefers natural over street it a good dvd it explains stuff well, he isn't the best presenter though 'ooohhh manuals' - but if you are just beginning you will learn stuff from it. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swize Posted September 18, 2005 Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 We where talking about this yesterday and steve said "If he made a vid and stuck a manifesto section in everyone would be like :'( and problie be really impressed." Which i total agree with. But i think making the whole vid just got a little boring don't get me wrong he has an extrem amount of skill and balance but the vid to me just got boring after a while. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
