Yeah that comp vid is pretty crazy. Seems like front flip drop-ins are the new thing. There was a sequence in one of the latest RideBMX issues with Scotty Cranmer doing one. Go figure. . .

Scotty Cranmer blows my mind. I don't know how he comes up with some of the stuff he does.

Yeah, the vid is all around rad. I love the music... some Eazy E, MIA & Diplo, David Bowie... Neil Young's "Old Man" is perfect for BF's part.

That Facad vid is something else. Bruce Crisman has way too much skill riding fakie - holy friggen' crap. And that boy rides trails which is always good in my book.

I was going to say Cranmer's vid is like a PS2 game but he's sicker than the stuff you can do in Dave Mirra Pro BMX 2. Isn't it about time for a updated game for x360 or Ps3...

wow, the bike control in that is absurd.


fyi: i had an impulse buy today:poster_oops:
after looking at building up a custom Fit S3, buying a Fit Flow Trail, and then discovering the Specialized Fuse 4 from a fellow monkey, i made a few phone calls, and a shop about 15 minutes away had one in a box, they could build in an hour.:monkeydance:

got there, rode it around, and had to buy it. $600, of course specialized lifetime warranty on frame and fork, 6 months on parts, and the shop has Lifetime Service on the bike! that was definetly the sell point, and after spending all afternoon messin around on it, i got back on my mob, and it jsut felt big, and not solid:shocked:, and it hought it was as tight as it could get!

i'm loving it, and you guys will probably be seeing a copy/paste of this in the forum with a pic and thread, you guys just got a late night teaser.

Question. What do you call this trick??? I've seen a bunch of them lately. It's kind of like a table/invert/un-turndown thing. Is it just an invert? To me, an invert is more like a table, with the bars turned and are usually on vert. Foster does one on dirt in the Fitlife vid and gets a skid mark from his front tire on his t-shirt. Whatever it is... it's fyckin sick... I'ma start doin em on 26s. (OK, maybe not THIS inverted).



Terrible quality, but this is BF from the Fitlife vid...

I could be wrong but this is my interpretation. What the guy on the ramp is doing I call an invert. What Foster is doing looks to be an unturndown since the bike is more verticle like a regular turndown would be.
