Luckily the trick I learned multiple times was to crash by the stairs, or at the bottom if we were jumping them. luckily not on them yet any advice on how to stick the landing?

Just keep running. You aren't falling until you hit the ground.
It's really a lucky story, I was trying to jump from a hill beside the set, and land on the stairs. Wasn't happy with the roll up, so I tried to bail, but too late. Went sorta over the bars, but not all the way. Basically, the front tire went down, back went up, bars in front of the thighs. Sorta wearing the head tube like a thong, running down the stairs, with the bike smacking my back. I'm lucky I got away with all of my teeth

Yeah nothing that big, 8-10 steps max. That's far beyond my levels of intestinal fortitude

That's Fabio Wibmer, he's amazing. Check out his youtube channel.


Danny MacAskill is awesome too


Anyone have any good BMX youtube channels to recommend? I watch mostly mountain bike stuff.

 

[Captain Awesome]

I know, me too. I want to find the right place and try to learn it. And go back in time 40 years to heal quickly....

Need.to practice the Long Nollie todo that.

This is more like my personal style

Jeff Lenosky has a good channel. Lots of tech and trials stuff

I think the surest way for me to get interested in a project is for me to post something like this

I kind of doubt I'll do another BMX bike.

Checking some of the video links I kind of fell in love with the Team Roskelley GT

I love the bare metal look, the Tuff wheel on the front, etc. I'm assuming modern geometry must be fantastic.

That being said, this mid-school Redline project is for sale locally for $75 and I think it may wind up in my shed.

This forum is a bad influence. I love it!

You’re welcome

This tread pattern would work for the offroad class right? I love these tires.

Thanks guys. I found this bike on IG a while back and have been thinking about using it as inspiration for a build off. I have a red Schwinn Racer and want to build something like this. Thoughts?

Awesome build idea! Do you already have a 30/31 chopped and banger powered Model A to go with it?

 

[twojs.bike]

Ha. I could see this hobby morphing into antique cars someday. Maybe when the kids are gone and I’m old enough to dip into the 401k.

I warned you about BMX and that Cap was a bad influence... You didn't listen
