Those who were at Rom today witnessed the latest breed in no fear and no pain (and more noticably no sense).

A young 'un continued to ride around the skatepark oblivious to anyone else in the park.  Continuously cutting up people and slamming hard so many times it was unbelievable.  Unless you was there and saw it, you would not believe it.

He must have slammed HARD at least 10-15 times.

He appeared to have no idea what was going to happen when he hit a bowl or ramp.

Wearing a shell suit style top with no t-shirt or anything underneath it, trainers with no laces and knee pads halfway down his shins.

Slams included riding full pelt into the concrete half pipe, but staying on the vert until he stopped and let gravity take it's course. Resulting in bleeding gums.
At least 8 slams in the moguls going over the bars many times.  Mainly carving round until he stopped on a non flat part and once again letting gravity take it's course.
Riding full pelt towards the 1/4 pipe and riding over the side half way up the ramp to concrete face plant. I don't think he thought past the riding off the side part.

It would seem that this kid doesn't quite understand the laws of gravity yet.

However, after every HARD slam, he seemed to get up, oblivious to any sort of pain and carry on his mindless riding.

I think he cut up every single person in the park at one time or another.  Rolled in without looking if anyone else was riding.

Like I say, I have never seen anything like it in my life before, and I think those who were there would be of similar opinion.  A danger to himself and anyone else riding in the park at the same time.

Myself, Rhys R & Jim W (as i'm sure a lot of others were) spent a lot of time watching him in amusement waiting for his next hard slam and we never had to wait that long. It practically became predictable that a slam was imminent.


Those who were there, what do you think?

yeah i saw him :LolLolLolLol:

i told him not to sit down riding into the moguls, as he kept falling off

give it a few years and he'll probably be a ripper - no fear :)

The young lad may have had special needs as I have seen a few on the ramps in Nice, they dont have the intelegence to know danger and just try and copy everyone else its a shame as they dont understand fear

He was as funny as fook.  :crazy2:

No doubt if he sticks at it he will deffo be a ripper when he gets older.

He rode into the deep end of the bullet without even thinking. Faceplanted himself and split his lip and gum, got up had a bit of a winge and was off again. I pulled his bike out of the bullet and the bars were all twisted and pulled back.  :LolLolLolLol:

what a champion.

I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

that kid was hilarious :LolLolLolLol:   he's got every right to ride as every one but what a nightmare  i was taking pics of the boys and he kept cutting across their run,  what worried me was the speed the boys hit the ramps at if they landed on him he's a gonner :uglystupid2:   still you never know  put a t shirt on him and clean his glasses and mirra in the making ;D

my personal favorite was when he rolled into the moguls whilst one of the younger riders (sorry don't know his name) was mid air over one of the hips how he missed him i'll never know !!!!!
not a brutal as face plant to concrete but more for sheer horror it left on the face of his victim !!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder if that was before or after I helped get his shell suit bottoms that were stuck in between his chain wheel and chain out  :daumenhoch:

He was also asking about my crash helmet:

Kid: "Where did you get that?"

Me: "Evans"

Kid: "Do they do kids sizes?"

Me: "Don't know I didn't ask, but I imagine so."

Kid: "Can I try it?"

Me:   :shocked: "No, I've got nits!"

No it was a different kid, I think he was riding a blue Magna and had a blue kids road helmet on, suicidal, just rolled straight into the run-off without looking just missing a couple of other kids then rode straight into the half pipe  :idiot2:  Funny as fook to watch, think you might have been in or around the performance bowl so probably missed him, I think he also wiped out mostly before you got there!
