Is this re-used footage from the GOOD Nitro Circus that used to be on FUEL TV? Between the 6 episodes or so of that show and the 1 Nitro Circus DVD (Thrillbillies) that I own I think I have seen just about everything this "new" MTV show has about a year ago.

Sorry fellas. I thought they would have at leased showed some of Taylor. It was a small day and the stand up guys did a great job with the bad surf conditions. Bummer nothing made the final cut.
However, Taylor you did a damn good towing the boys on the couch. Towing in the surf is alot harder then it looks.
I have have seen all the final cuts to the Fuel TV "Thrill Billies" and there is a decent freeride section in that coming soon.
And for all you smuchs with the negative attitude were getting warmer to more expose so stop bitching!!!!

Serious let-down. I started watching the show when it first came out, but since the Jackass crew showed up it's gone down the crapper fast.
They paved the way for the Nitro Circus.It's funny to put the jackass guys on anything with an engine.They have zero talent and they crash there brains out.

I believe I was the one who started off the topic of bad publicity so I get to comment now. For the record, I wasn't bitching, I was apprehensive, but it seemed to snowball after that so I'm sorry if it came off as negative.

Shows like Nitro Circus with stars like Travis Pastrana can put our sport in front of millions of viewers that normally would never see what we do and I think that's great. It's a shame that the weather didn't play along and the boys didn't get to show their best.

Mexico: Travis Pastrana & Nitro Circus: Rosarito, Mexico
After X games, I went down to Mexico jet skiing with Travis for a Nitro Circus shoot. The plan was for Travis and me to try backflipping a jet ski off the ocean waves. I actually felt alright about this when asked to go down there cause I figured you were landing in water so how bad could it be. We met a bunch of crazy Freestyle Jet Ski guys that were flipping, barrel rolling, and do al kinds of gnarly stuff off the waves, so I figured we could get some tips for our flip attempts. I go out and try riding around on one and wow, stand-up jet skis are way harder then they look. I could barely keep the thing moving with out tipping over and being ripped off it. I realized that we were in like 5 feet of water and I figured between the fact that I couldn't go with out crashing for more then 100 ft and being in that shallow of water had me thinking about lawn darting in to the ocean bottom. TP said screw it and went for it. He landed underneath the Jet Ski and didn't even come close. At that point, I said no way. If TP failed that bad, I didn't have a prayer. So, I ended up dong some tubing behind a 3 seater water craft in the waves, which was pretty sick. Later, I found a surfboard some one had brought with and I was bound and determined to learn how to surf. I caught a couple waves and went for a little bit but surfing wears you out cause you are constantly paddling, but it was a fun time trying to learn. Overall, the whole trip was good time. It's always a blast going out with TP and the Nitro Circus because you never know what you are getting yourself into. Later
