The more stylish of the 3 is sporting wheel disks, one cool cat.

..back in the days when most of us could have almost turned Pro :)

I mean, I know this video is super cool but compared to your average 12 year old today, they at pretty average :)

What are the bars the rider has, most visible during the flat stuff at 3:10??

Very nice video.  Makes me feel all gushy..

But that's called  "Progression in evolution",, that vid was when specific  freestyle BMX  was in it's infancy  ::) ( about 4 years in, that's  not including riding swimming pools )

Kids are trying barspins , whips etc in the first few months of riding , these are now the basic must do tricks as opposed to framestands and  rockwalks .   :)

Tricks are better , bikes are better,,facilties and venues are better   ::)  :)

You could say the same for alot of sports  ;)  :)



Top vid Tim ,thanks for posting / sharing  :4_17_5:

You're not wrong, Christian. Even bike videos have come a long way since then...

Not a valid vimeo URL  ;)
