Exactly, just as Tony Hawk is Skateboarding.Matt Hoffman is BMX.
Tony Hawk is BMX now. Haven't you heard?Exactly, just as Tony Hawk is Skateboarding.
Dennis was a good friend of mine BITD... that being said, he'll even tell you that Mat made bmx what it it is today.Hoffman WAS sick, but Mccoy WAS sick and STILL IS sick!
Jay Miron... the Canadian Beast. He owns Macneil. He hated competing, only did it to make some cash. Never met him, but jeez, dude pulled the first 540 t-whip on vert. Absolute monster.For sure, you could never take anything away from Hoffman. When xgames was invented me and my friends knew nothing of vert. We would watch it and DMC made everything look sooo stylish and fun it made you think you could alleyoop double peg grind the whole pipe if you tried a couple times. Of course thats not the case.
I allways respected the guys that made riding look smooth, fun and stylish more that the riders that that just did the big burly tricks, DMC, Robbie Morales, Brian Foster, those kind of riders.
What ever happened to this guy. . . http://www.vimeo.com/3952036 he didn't really get the props he deserved, burly for sure.
hmmm....but the guy grew up riding 2hip comps, BS Comps, Rampage etc. there was definitely no cash during the mid-school years.Jay Miron... . . . He hated competing, only did it to make some cash. . . . .
for sure ! here's one from Pipeline. . .a shot of Dominquez airing out so very high on a crazy concrete 1/4 pipe.
jay sounds grumpy.jay miron said not too long ago that he's not riding bmx anymore. he explained that when he rides he wants to basically go all out all the time or else its not fun/worth it for him. so i guess he's sticking to other bikes for the time being. total bad ass.
Looks like Whistler at 1:18http://www.vimeo.com/3952036 he didn't really get the props he deserved, burly for sure.
