A big single flip would have looked loads better, probs 10 times harder to pull too.

Cam zinks 100 ft single flip on a mtb was cooler

I must be getting old because I can't stand this stuff. Pastrana turns everything into a circus and people get hurt for no good reason. Look at the video--these guys are dangerously high by any standard, rotating fast, and landing hard. Every one of them is moments away from a life altering injury and Pastrana is just cheering them on because it isn't his health he's risking. I know they have the ability to opt out, but the action sports peer pressure wins every time and these guys can't back down for fear of being labeled weak. Colin Winkleman destroyed both his ankles and a wrist for one of Pastrana's dumb shows and ended up taking his own life a year or so later. I can't help but think his career ending crash had something to do with his suicide.
BMX isn't BMX when it becomes a circus act.

That really sucked to hear about Winkleman. I'm trying to remember which show it was.  It was just Jackass right?  Pastrana wasn't involved with that?   Nate Wessel built the ramp and attached it to the van?

Idk single flips can look so nice if it's slow on a longer jump.

It happened at Travis Pastrana's place in Maryland. He had a contest to pull the craziest clip at his compound. Sucks what happened to Winklemann... Crazy to think it was 10+ years ago that happened.

I'd rather watch Chad Herrington

Jarvy was talking about this dude yesterday when I saw him. Something about a one footer through the frame or something

And under the frame, reaching the pedal again. Not to mention barhop to double saran wrap. Ride On is on YouTube if you want to check it out

It was for sure in one of the old nitro circus dvds before it was a tv show and before the tour shit.
