Your logic is like telling Chris Durtschi to use Atomc Punx.  DJ bikes can do things BMX can't and visa versa.

Shut the fuck up, Theres a shitload of stuff in this video that has "mountain terrain", therefore, he is riding a "mountain" bike.

the last shot was big (yet he didn't quite land it), but really the rest of the video was pretty ordinary. not really sure why everyone's so worked up

Yeah, i'm pretty sure it's somewhere in Marin but I don't think it's an actual trail.


theabortionator, riding that stuff bmx and mtn bike is completely different. i know you know a lot about drugs so lets analogize it to telling someone on peyote that they should just try acid.

Wait what? The fuck are you talking about? Did you not see the 10 foot step up one eighty into a bunnyhop to make the landing that is a boulder? Do you realize how hard that would be?

I literally just posted a Danny Macaskill video as a response to a BMX thread. But also keep in mind that is a whole different style of biking with a whole different bike that is specially for trials.

Yes, not super ridiculously insane hard.

Pretty standard, no hate though.

^ dang that video was way nastier than the OP's

I don't know much about trials/biking..but was that bike he was riding some shitty generic one I could go pick up at my local walmart? It didnt look to impressive..which makes what he was doing even more insane

Sorry what? Either you're completely full of yourself, you're insanely good at biking or you know nothing about biking and are a class A douchebag.

No, he rides for Mongoose I beleive which makes bikes in the range from Zellers-shitty bikes to $4500-nice bikes. And he was probably riding a Mongoose trials bike he custom nuilt or something.
