That is cool. I tried finding it on youtube to post here, but I couldn't find it.

Man, they stuff they're doing on mountain bikes today makes the BMX stuff I was doing in the late-80s/early-90s look totally pansy. And, we had Hell Track and Lori Loughlin (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiZb5iIDAG0) (eat your heart out Hulk Hogan).

It used to be that only the pros were riding those kind of courses. Now there are several people even here in northern Utah that ride like that. There are a few hidden north shore style ladders in Bountiful and Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons. The sport just keeps getting pushed to the next level.

"That gets the heart goin'" - No kidding!

And one of my all time favourite songs, to boot.

Great video, thanks Joe! And nice work, DisGo on the Youtube upload. :cool2:

It's a good song, but MAN, Linkin Park is probably on 30% of all helmetcam video soundtracks now. They're gonna burn it out.

AC/DC is my favorite band, but I'm very cautious to use them for fear of the same thing.

That trail would be great to ride on. Unfortunately, it'd be torn down in 2 weeks if that were Utah. :frustrated:

That'd be a trail to scout first

I have to say, in my opinion, BMXers are the craziest people on bicycles right now. BMX is at a whole different level. Right now, freeriders and trials riders are just stealing moves that BMXers were doing ten years ago. Most of the stuff I see in the videos I would never have the balls (or skills) to ever try. They go just as big as freeriders, but with no suspension and little wheels. Friggin nuts.

I also agree with Sombeech on the music. Linkin Park isn't bad, they're just way to popular and overused.

Steven Hamilton is pretty awesome. That is a sweet section.

Scotty Cranmer is just rediculous right now.

WOW! I cant believe I missed this one!! A couple of those gap jump are a bit scary but for the most part, completely do-able downhill!
