FLATOUTSTYLE Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 (edited) Do you not think that freestyle mx is reaching its limits? As far as individual moves go, I know they can throw combos in too to spice it up...But surely thats the top now??? The runs they do in comps seem repetitive, DONT turn that into "Freestyle Mx is shite" It ISNT, but you dont often see anything diff...appart from that mad x2 flip On the other hand I suppose it is quite a young sport as far as sports go, bit like trials in that respect.....Dont mean to throw a spanner in the works its just a thought Edited October 23, 2005 by FLATOUTSTYLE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibs_m Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Nice post man! I was waiting to see that because I have seen him doing them into his foam pit but not seen laned on dirt before! :P :) (Y) :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Backflip, Blackflip one hander, Backflip no hander, Backflip 70ft gap, Backflip to suicide landing. Yey. Big woop, he did a double back flip, and don't get me wrong, its stupidly insanse, but instead of backflip after backflip, it will be a backflip, one double, then the rest backflips still. Yawn. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

!aNT! Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 The metal mulishas are backflips, thats there main trick, because it wins stuff, same with the dirtjump comps, i came 3rd and was the highest scorer without the backflip, whereas the top 2 did one back flip and the odd no hander, i did a tailwhip a suicide a huge whip and a superman seatgrab. explain that to me...that is why ive started doin trials (i need a trials bike really but ma kona scrap will do) because you dont even need anywhere special...still the double backflip is mental and good to see ONCE a run not like 5 times... !aNT!

Yeah theres sumet fishey going on with the judging in that sport, I do tend to see poor judging at x games type events also..After a great run, whether it be bmx, skate etc they can get a crap score. If they dont do certain tricks the biased judges wana see, then it just dont cut it the mustard.... :) Unfair I think. Suppose thats the good thing about trials in a way, you ride whatever style you want, but again I find sometimes people do tend to favour big move styles, sidehops, taps etc.....Guess it may just be a popularity thing. I myself prefer technical requiring balance and control.... Edited October 23, 2005 by FLATOUTSTYLE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SQuiT-man Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 When I used to do downhill, I almost swapped my bike for a Metal Mulisha team rider's Intense M1 (Chico's bike?). Shame he pulled out though, but Im glad I got into trials instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
