GSo rad. Gary, weren't you a Masterclass rider? I can't remember. Some MC riders were better than the pros. I loved watching both. It was like 2 pro classes! MAN I miss the old comps
Never did pedal pickers but towards the end, I could fly out into a cherrypicker and drop back in with usually less than 2 hops. Almost had them dialed as CP taps. Learned them on the Terrel ramp. Last ramp I ever rode. I'm an idiot for choosing the fast lane over riding. UGH!1!11!
Considering what's been done, it's not really that big a deal
