Title: Fuck-footed greatness?
Post by: magnumpink on November 11, 2015, 12:06:15 PM
One of the local kids here has started doing 180s. Left foot forward, rotates to the left. Wanna show him some cool video parts. Who other than Mike Aitken spins this way?

It still looks odd to me and must be harder as you can't lock your inner crank arm that much anymore.

Kriss Fox? Chris Fox? That one who goes fast and does unnecessarily forced kickouts.

Does not knowing which way someone spins and their stance have any reference to the autism thread?

I'd say knowing off hand what stance and direction someone spins definitely makes you an autist.

yep im fully autistic on that, i could tell you which foot forward, which dominant peg side, and which way their natural spin is for most riders from back when i used to live in the uk watching bmx videos all winter and being depressed cos the weather was shit

I'm not sure if Danny Hickerson is truly fuck footed, but i know he can ride with either foot forward and spin both ways.

Hickerson is just on a different level…

Nyquist is f-footed, so is Bohan I think.

hickerson does his grinds with regular footing (pegs on left, left foot forward), but most of his other stuff he does right foot forward (except some of his whips cos he can whip both ways and has different footing depending on which way hes kicking the bike).
so mad watching his sections and focusing on his footing. riding switch footed feels so shit to me, respect to people who can switch it up easily. hes also really dialled generally

For those of us who are hipster BMX nerds Hickerson has a strong claim to be crowned most talented rider of the mid to late 2000s.
