ok, im 30, but i still have a bmx, that kid has some big big bollox, but also mental tech skills. good find i'll have a look for some other bmx, perhaps some old school shizzle to.

First thing that I thought as well...

Very impressive nonetheless, especially the various tree stunts!

tame in comparison but the fluent riding style is fantastic

Is it the same guy as the 'too cool for a helmet' vid, maybe one year later...

I guess wearing a helmet is a personal choice - is it for us to criticise? I suspect he's fully aware of the risks involved, you can't get that good without a lot of crashing along the way  :shrug:

That first jump is quite simply the best thing I have seen today. I mean it.

Totally agree. I personally have never worn a helmet for my minimal trad climbing, but that is a personal, route at a time choice. I'm sure the lid-less biker is the master of his own destiny. Big up the brave bugger. Kids today and all that.

Holy moly... i cant believe he makes it down the first bit never mind then trying to jump off the damn mountain, awesome!

as for the bmxer, i have seen nothing that gets close. simply the best i ever seen, everyone should see it. coz the twat will be dead shortly due to not wearing a helmet.

How the hell do those guys bounce so easily when they fall off? Why doesn't it seem to hurt them as much as I know it would hurt me? :bow:

Once the camera stops rolling they're probably rolling around on the floor puking :)
