vert out of the x games
Trev:
The reason Vert was being dropped originally is that it is mainly 30+ riders that only compete in it. There isn't any real up and coming young vert riders. Once the older ones stop then they'll be no one left to enter.
It's good news that X Games are reinstating it. But for how long? I heard a rumour that LG was also dropping Vert.
I do love watching vert riding. Watching people like Bestwick & Tabron dominate it is fantastic.

How very magnanimous of them......
Fcukers.
How very dare them. Who the fcuk do they think they are to mess around with our sport just because they threw some money at it for a few years. It's not like they did it for love - they got rich too.
BMX was there before them and will be there after them. I dont personally care if there's never another x games, it will have no effect on where/why/how I ride.....
Grrrr.........

i started riding vert at skaterham i really enjoy it need to do it alot more though.
TwoBobRob:
Thats the thing about vert, it's a bloody hard slog to get anywhere. Takes ages to get comfortable, then ages to get decent air, then more ages to learn tricks. Thats why there's not many vert riders around, it's too damn hard.
Which is why these media tossers don't have the right to interfere with it...
Just my opinion of course ;D :knuppel2:
