remember when you 1st started stunting? things like 360's to landing on something was what got you excited.. now it seems only 200ft airs excites people.

the technical stunting seems of of mostly died out.. some of us take it to the next level with crazy combo's but thats still differen.

here are some of the old school challenges that i used to spend time trying when i 1st started. (not exactly, im adding some newer methods)

ok 1st challenge, natural bump - 360 spin either way - air grab (crash into a wall and grab mid air, you must be on the bike before you land)

2nd challenge, wallride - 360 air - wallride.

i only have 2 for the moment, i'll post more later but yeah, do them anywhere in VC or LC or SAiVC but post a video of it and um have fun trying  i've landed both of these so don't say they aren't possible  (mainly the 2nd one) you have to find your own spots.

Flat Face, that 2nd one, just by reading it, watching something like that in a vid would make me jawdrop.


Edit: I'm gonna try land something like it (I'm talking about a real wallride not a rampy wallride..)

What are you talking about? Technical stunting hasn't "died out" all I do nowadays are small tricky good looking stunts.. can't remember when I last RADed a stunt tbh

arg... at 1st i was annoyed at you sony but i must have explained this to someone over msn and not posted it.. theirs stoppie - grind - ag - precision technical and theirs 360 - hedge landing where you land flat on both wheels

different technicals

hey wait.. just reading over my post i did say that but i spose not clearly enough... anyway if you see anyone doing these sorts of stunts then well.. tell me and i'll change my post.

and fighter.. . ..  ............ .. . ................. . what?

if you mean whats wrong with the big stunts, i personally HATE them, don't feel accomplished after landing one.. don't like watching them.. just plain don't like em, ok i don't hate em but still

meaning hate is too strong a word.


EDIT:

my highest landed stunt was 185 or something, it was OK but nothing compared to when i land some hard combo.

If you ever got anywhere near a 200ft roof I bet you'd feel some accomplishment.
