I grew up riding dirt, street, and ramps on a BMX bike. FMX owes everything to BMX. That is where every trick came from anyway. They also got the foam pit and resi ramps from BMX. A resi ramp has give on the landing. But I still love dirt bike just the same. I really can't wait until I can afford a CR500/250 conversion. The X Games is tonight, it will be sick! Pastrana is still the original innovator. Lets look at all the tricks he pioneered. Some were even all his own, not done on a BMX bike first!
- Rodeo
- Clift Hanger
- Lazy Boy
- Superman Indian Air (BMX Trick)
- He wasn't the first to do a back flip, Carey Hart wasn't either, but they helped push it. There was a guy doing them on a CR 80 ten years before they ever even thought of it. I forget his name though. He dish ragged himself and is now paralyzed some from it.
- I forget the rest, my wisdom teeth pain killers are kicking in.
Also, did you guys see where Ryan Capes broke the distance record again? 390 feet! SICK!
I want to see someone do a wall ride on a dirt bike. See how far they can ride straight up a verticle wall, turn and come back down.
