At the end of last year I had some riding clips left over from Ride2Glory and some usable clips from an adult shoot. All I had to do was thro in a few more tricks, put it to one of my bands tracks and I'd have an edit.

Thanks. Im my head its an 80s kickturn (back when if you didnt have a coaster brake you stood on the tyre). I dont think Ive seen anyone else do them in an icepick.

Never mind that, what about the surfer! Thats the longest one Ive ever done!

That icepick's got a bit of everything

originality, tech & a certain earthy/easy style which seems to be missing nowadays! Ok yeah, bonus points for the surfer

Good video Alex,

Question for ya

At the start of the video, you fall off head first over a jump box, how the hell do you manage not to break your hands or wrist going down like that?

It was just a little block on the floor. I was trying to manual roll and then hop up to nose wheelie but I timed it wrong and stuffed the front wheel into the edge of the block and flipped over. I guess I got away with it lucky.

I would love to start learning to ride ramps and parks, I started trying tracks last year and 2nd time out I broke my wrist and was screwed for 3 months. Street/parks like your video is what I would love to learn to do, but I wondering wether I am too old to start doing it. In the 80s I had no fear and bounced when I fell off. I seem to do down with a crunch these days lol

nosepickben · « **Reply #19 on:** March 19, 2013, 05:33 PM »

Yep, thats the problem. Its never too bad when i come off, the pain comes when you get home after riding, and it lasts twice as long. Know your limits, and learn how to crash safely..! Works for me.

stevepeanut · « **Reply #20 on:** March 19, 2013, 05:41 PM »

Crashing and a few bruises doesn't bother me, breaking bones does. When I broke my wrist my 2 managers turned a bit of a blind eye to injury and let me come to work, my mate agreed to do all the driving, we normally take turns each. If my managers had followed correct procedure, I would have been put in the call centre at head office instead of being out doing installs. Over the 3 months I was injured, I would have lost a few thousand pound in bonus wages if I had been stuck in the call centre. I want to push myself and learn tricks, but cant risk injuries.
