Mark W Posted May 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 I seem to remember it's only available on VHS or something, not 100% about that though. It'll probably be in a Halfords Bikehut though, they seem to just stock Revolution and Evolve from the last few I've been in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Clark Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 Does anyone remember that thing about JJ Gregorowicz and some other Brisa rider getting in all kinds of controversy for strategically dabbing to get over stuff and the huge american comp I've forgot?That shit was all over biketrials.com in the day.

gianttrials Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 hahahaha thats quite funny, i seem to recall that happening years ago in a british champs round in shropshire, certain pros dabbing over a huge tree stump. anything to get through a section (the technical dab). i guess its all changed now, i was told that you cant dab so that both feet are on the same side of the bike, dunno if thats true though , its all gone crazy, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure it was him. I know I saw a video of him "strato dabbing" pretty much an entire section at Motorama. Back in the day when trials wasn't about how good you were, but how flexible and limber you were? It still happens in UCI comps, downer but there we go.The rule is that your foot can't cross over the centre-line of the bike, I think? So you can't step-through and do it or whatever. People still use their feet to hook the top-tube and stuff to lift the bike when they do it though, so maybe it's not fully enforced.

gianttrials Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 i reckon speedtrials (like in the revolution vid) should be a discipline alongside normal comps, wont ever happen but would show of riders talents even more an bring in loads of street riders i think. would be more spectator friendly too. bring back the old skool also that scene in evolve has thibault marriaux in it, another amazing rider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted May 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 They do Speedtrials at Koxx Days and it seems to go down well there. RedBull did it in that big castle event thing they did too. You never know, might catch on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r2wtrials Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 just caught up with this thread... a name that was mentioned was Brisa. I noticed a website has sprung back up again with UK prices on it. ( http://www.brisabikes.com/ ) What happened to them, all the rage when i last rode.
