Awesome stuff no excuses for not riding the canoe bridge at the Dirtworks now is there.

lozza6's picture

Wishing I could do shit like that!!

Nah mate, no way is it a fixxie... he's just gotta backpedal when he starts rolling backwards....

and to do that whilst balancing on the rear wheel.. pfft babies and candy.... haha

pikey's picture

......i'm shiting bricks already thank you.
I plan to put my phone and camera in water proof bags just in case.
Damian, Thanks for the premo reminder mate.

Manual across it!

Now that'd be a sight!

A few edinburgh landmarks in there, although I'd swear the first segment is in Glasgow ( slightly different sandstone colour...).

I've seen some of his stuff before, but he seems to be raising the stakes a bit here.

I am wondering what he does when it's pi$$ing rain though ?

Jawdropping!

Ryan Leach, he's on youtube etc.... was featured in The Collective and The Collective - Roam, he's one talented dude also !

GAZZA's picture

you were right but at least i got the right land mass. I suppose england/scotland = nsw/queensland! Same government, same island and they both hate each other! Eye-wink

Bernd's picture

like Germany and Austria...and they both hate each other! Gazza....

Toddy's picture

an eye out for the BMX on ONE HD (or channel 12 on SD)these guys are mad also......

Harry's picture

are needed to describe this level of skill. Have to wonder how much skin and blood was lost getting to this level, some of this also really defines commitment as bailing at the wrong moment would equal carnage.

lozza6's picture

Those two extra videos too..

thats just RUDE!!!! They make it all look too easy!

and those urban DH guys are manoeuvring their 20kg rigs around like trials bikes half their weight!

amazing stuff!
