Sad but true, The americans can't stand not winning so i suppose it was only a matter of time before this happened !

flatland gone, dirt gone, now vert. its only a matter of time before bmx is is dropped (or the x games closes up) if all they are having is park/street. vert is roots of freestyle to me as there's nothing better than watching a good ole vert battle with all the big guns blazing. down to the old do or die motto on some of the crazy moves around now.
macky:
Jamie Bestwick is now seen as unbeatable in vert as was Mat Hoffman for a time back in the day!!
maybe thats why they're dropping vert ? becoming too predictable??
or maybe they think vert riders are a dying breed?
i hope its not getting dropped though, its the only reason i watch the X Games!!
Shings:
Funny you say about a dying breed....
Down creation of a sunday morning the kids dont go near it..
Every now n then one or 2 of the regulars who talk to us older guys will come and have a mess about but very few get out the top and are really arsed in it.
shame because vert is hardcore.
perry:
love watching some good vert but i once stood on the deck of the vert ramp in newport and got scared just standing there , fook riding it :-[
