Small pieces of metal tubing with pedals, or big fat thing with a big fat engine?

Not saying I wouldn't have one, just that I reckon stuff is more impressive on MTB than MX bikes. Plus we can tailwhip! (well, some of us can!)

but then bmx's can tailwhip more times, so we lose out there too

dude the whip is my favourite trick (aside from a tailwhipbackflip)

For future its called a Flipwhip.
Yea, im agreeing with the whole whippage thing, its amazing seeing huge moto whips where it looks like they are going to 360 and they pull it back, but we'll never get as far around as them because we dont have engines...simple..

mx bikes are way ore stable in tyhe air cuz theyre tanks, and bmx can do more cuz tyhere soo small. mtb is progressing, in a few years i bet mtber will be doin most mx tricks. we already got cliffhangers, mcmetz. soon chubey will have his fliphangers. jst give it time.

the best mx/fmx whips are not bubbas, but twitchs whips, the turn down whip that you all like so much is a twitch whip!

yes mountain biking is progressing but still they don't have the impressiveness of the big air of an mx bike , or the technical tricks a bmx can do, but slopestyle could have a feature in the x-games because there are things that only an mtb can do (i.e the drops)
