Post by: RADHAB on April 19, 2008, 01:13 AM

I'll start,

In the late eighties i got blisteringly good at street riding after i finished riding me vert days.....So........for me the Ruben section on the Grounded DVD has to be one of the most fabulously disgustingly brilliant obnoxiously amazing fantastic bits of BMX riding i have ever seen........if you dont agree then yer Mums are the prtotypes for anal intruders to be made from!!! No really they are!!       

Nite nite.

Me...  :LolLolLolLol:   only joking...  ;D

Has to be Dennis McCoy... Vert/ Street/ Flatlander and even had a bash at dirt!!  :4_17_5:

He's shown eveyone there is NO age limit on riding!!

Also, Carlo Grigg's is probably my all time favorite British vert rider!!!

watching his ramp runs still sends chills up my spine!!

Mat Hoffman - for pushing the boundaries and also giving back to the sport through the CFB series (which spawned the Extreme Games and X-Games).

I watched the pipeline run from dominguez 85 kos yesterday that welsh denny posted up and it confirmed it for me, dominguez flowed and was technically gifted. Hoffman in the mid school era though without doubt for single handidly keeping it in the public eye, great book he wrote too, worth a read if you havent
