Go on admit it....lol....

[dubber]

as above...who on here cant do any tricks...got to be honest...ill start...
1..me.. ...just been somewhere quiet on my haro 04 to try and do the simplest of tricks...managed a few poor endos..and not much else, although to be honest,i was shite BITD...so maybe now being about 15st and 40yrs old certainly doesn't help, i do enjoy trying but its getting frustrating ffs..

[Tefore]

been collecting bmx for over 12 years now and never ever tried .lol was plop then and even plopper now.

[Retrodan72]

Hopefully gonna win that set of bollox on the Bay and get on some ramps again.

[rollin72]

im bazzing on a bike, in my head i'm like Jamie Bestwick and on a bike im.........Stan Laurel  

[B17SSY.T.A]

At least we're trying ! 
Can't wait to finish the TA so I can have a blast and stop pretending my mountain bikes a BMX lol .. Although must admit when I borrowed my mates 20" boy was I wobbly ! 
Just practise practise practise I guess ....

Keep the faith and have fun 

[markyp]

bitd i was really good on the flat land,framestands,cherry pickers etc but this time around im yet to have a bike with a front brake so cant attempt fook all!!i did an endo at mk(first one in 26 years) on sweetbeats performer but totally fooked it up as the 'my weight to bike weight' ratio was slightly differant to when i last did one in 86!!i was dying to go into a front hop too

[pickle]

Shyte bitd and Shyte now but enjoy it all the same 

[fugazi]

Can't do some of the stuff I used to anymore due to My back, but still try to get it on when I can, the other times I'm just stoked to be able to have a roll around 

[kungfunky]

I raced bitd but never did any cool tricks, Still race a little now so have some of those skills. I did perform a 180degree bunny hop for my niece the other day thinking she'll love it but she just said "old men trying to look cool is sooooo un cool".  does she know she's 10 ffs..

[curtispro]

I like to think that I am a legend on a BMX but in reality I am sh!te, I try and do the old tricks but my balls just don't seem a big as they used to   wheelies, frame stands, small bunny hops is about the limit, but one day I am gonna turn up at one of the rad lockin's and I am gonna go for it  

[Jaymz]

I'm actually better now than i was bitd, difference between then and now is I dont think Im awesome, I actually listen to people that offer advice about riding which helps

[griff]

I'm crap but having loads of fun all the same

so far my raddest moves since the 80s have been a couple of framestands, some rather weak endoes since I got pads that work on tuffs and some equally feeble bunny hops. am slowly getting braver on the ramps but still find some of them to be pretty scary - thankfully no-one on our little lock-ins gives a toss if you're crap and even if you are there's still usually plenty to do. the boardroom's especially good for starters as it's not so 'extreme'

[Dark Diggler]

I am better than I was int 80's but it has come at a price  

Wouldnt change a thing though

I've seen the video clip of you looking all "extreme" in the foam pit mate 

[motomagII]

i only rode for about year oir so in the 80s and then started again 6 years ago was okay then and pretty crap now.can try loads tricks but pull very few for sure.
but love riding anyways which is whats its all about

[griff]

ash I was bricking it at the top of that 9ft roll-in, but once I'd got it done once wasn't so bad & the foam landing is hilarious
while boardroom is not so extreme some of the T1 ramps are pretty big - that jump box there gave me the fear  if it wasn't for spen & ged I'm not sure if I would have got over it last weekend

mate you could tell you were really giving yourself a talking to up there, did well in the end pal. Now I really need to get myself some kind of freestyler and hit the boardroom, its only 30mins away ffs 

[oldskooldayz]

i was fearless as a kid would try anything and didnt care if the ramp was made of an old door and milk crates

now im scared to let go of the handlebars 

[glenboy]

yep i'm crap ... been top a few ramp nights but still crap  , its still a good laff mind you , but hoping to get better  

[griff]

ash you don't need a freestyle bike for the boardroom - just don't use dirt tyres and you'll be fine

[curtispro]

Do any of you guys try to carry out these tricks on "old school" bike, as my fear is breaking them  and I find them new school bikes a bit .................weird

Griff, hats off mate.  I looked at that roll in ramp for the foam pit and thought 'fook that'.  The jump box was a little bigger than that one at the BR too eh?

Used to be ok at flatland bitd and general 'jumping stuff'.  Once did a quarter mile framestand but not got round to trying that one again yet  

[curtispro]

Also when you think back we were on our bikes every day trying to perfect new tricks, now at the ripe young age of 40, ride time is few and far between as all the adult things get in the way  if only we had the time and energy to ride and practice every day and had the facilities to perfect the radnes, things would be different.

[superbikedan]

i was good bitd, raced and loved the freestyle, loads of peeps say dan would still be good today,  so

my idea was to not ride again, still gets the pats on the back saying how good i was and pats on the back

saying if you rode today you'd still have it  makes sence in my mind, live off the past and live off what your

mates say that you'd still be good    best of both worlds with out getting hurt and still looking the

b@llocks    best advice from SBD

Doesn't matter what you ride just have a go
