new bow leg bar turn...

Kevin · Mar 10, 2016

Nope...
Sideways is the way to go...

Gary · Mar 10, 2016

for me turn downs are still the steeziest single move ever invented a big ol 3 turndown being the pinacle... but that's for 20s

Shoulder buzzers probably do it better for mtb.

guize...... hay guize!! bar humping is back!

johnbryanpeters · Mar 10, 2016

Meh. Get on your bike and pedal it however you like.

Gary · Mar 10, 2016

Away from filming equipment ...wearing all BLACK ...in the dark

dump · Mar 10, 2016

And the same thing over every bump on the trail...

Can't seem to find the bar humping picture thread.

I have so much steez, that when I whip, it literally just looks like a dead sailor straight air.

i can't possibly be the only one who thinks that the whips shown time after time in vids these days is just a revamped version of the dreaded old school bow leg bar turn. imo, shit looks wack as hell to me. i'm all about style, but i just don't feel the dog peeing on a fire hydrant is hitting that mark. it's like the visual equivalent of throwing up in your mouth a little bit...

the schleyble top is still pulling in sponsorship money for Richie. You'd think German engineering wouldn't stand for such lackadaisical tables, but nope, they love 'em.

I would guess that maybe 2 out of every 10 Ridemonkey desk warriors can actually throw a legitimate whip.

Wow, it really is the depths of the off-season if this is what we're talkin' about.

Ride like nobody's watching. Anyone who cares about your style or lack therof can suck it.

We're to busy keeping it low and fast son. Whips don't win races (and neither do I).

while i fully agree, the problem is that these vids are actually made for watching...

I'd suggest applying bleach right after finishing watching. You know, as an antiseptic measure.

Kill it with fire.

So it's 2005 again?

Sorry, forgot to significantly bow my legs :cray:

Better shot of Bulldog. I'm looking forward to seeing some whips from the posters on this thread

Jim Mac · Mar 11, 2016

Maybe it's nostalgia, but I always preferred shots like these - early "Steeze":

Edit: wherps-only thread

Kickout =/= whip

That's almost a sideways turndown. A turnside. :rofl:

Note knees firmly together on the second pic.

Like I've always said, leotards and style naturally just go hand in hand.

(Pretty sure this qualifies as that bow-legged shit WCH/Kidwoo are talkin' about tho... :\ )

That is one hell of a kickout... used to do those many moons ago.

Git sideways bitches!

That actually just looks like you're hauling ass........maybe pedaling in the air. I'd go with that.

canadmos · Mar 11, 2016

Its the people with their feet clipped into the pedals that look goofy.

buckoW · Mar 12, 2016

I used to have better whips a few years ago but sadly they've morphed into the dreaded bow legged turn bar....
Kidwoo's pic looked pretty old so here's an old one of me.

kidwoo · Mar 12, 2016

^^^^^KICKOUT!!!^^^^

buckoW · Mar 13, 2016

Oh well...
