Didn't look right at all, almost non BMX  :-\ :-\ :-\

I think Roger R has his BMX set up to be like his 4X bike ie very long frame and disc brake etc.  Personally I think it's more 'BMX' than bolting your feet to the bike :police: :police: :police: :police:

Jeez, it's 2012 not 1982 guys.  I bet the riders would probably like to run flatties but if you're on flats and your opponent has foot-retention you might as well pack up your gear and go home.  (on a track where lots of pedalling is involved that is)

It's just as much an advantage when manualling and pumping. It's quite satisfying rolling round on an old banger of a bike with flats and beating someone on a ultra light bling bike who's clipped in  :daumenhoch:

I don't like them either TBH.  Had a few low speed crashes on my MTB because I've needed to put a foot down but was unable to clip out in time.  NOT COOL.   :LolLolLolLol:

4 races, 3 crashes, awesome
