of course you can do that when you are 17 because you know your mom will wash everything with love.. when you are 30 it is not the same anymore.. or perhaps just fear make you think of excuses..

Or all those old idiots around you telling you that you can't?

chyu (Jul 18, 2012 at 22:00)

At 17, you injured yourself you stay home rest without worrying who's gonna pay the rent.

EpicNovice (Jul 19, 2012 at 13:13)

that's why you learn how to do it when your 17 so when your in 30s you don't fall and injure yourself

angrynipples (Jul 20, 2012 at 0:19)

yeah cuz every 17 year old is totally incapable of getting injured

EpicNovice (Jul 24, 2012 at 5:22)

consequences are not as heavy, less responsibility

BDKR (Jul 24, 2012 at 7:23)

Life is 5h1t (!) when you look at responsibility with such focus and intent that you take no risk.

Note the lack of shovel and how he is riding in the rain... All im saying

jezzah (Jul 18, 2012 at 14:10)

Matt has done more digging than anyone, ever. In the history of the world.

selks93 (Jul 18, 2012 at 14:16)

seriously james shut the fuck up

ccolagio (Jul 18, 2012 at 14:22)

i was going to say - isnt not riding in the rain up there along with "dig first, ride second" in terms of DJ rules of life?

James-Carey (Jul 18, 2012 at 14:25)

Yep, the whole rule "if it clogs your tires its too wet to ride" rule

jezzah (Jul 18, 2012 at 14:29)

Okay, The first location is very hard dirt and is always ridden in the wet (its England..) and is fine. The other wet trails at the end are made of sand so they ride better wet if anything. Jamie is one of the main diggers at the first trails and Matt at the last.. no need to bitch guys.

scrippsranchDJ (Jul 18, 2012 at 14:29)

Yes but the jumps are built with sand, the easiest medium to build with. Given that he's a local he probably puts in a fair share of effort into those jumps too.

James-Carey (Jul 18, 2012 at 14:42)

People seem to be loving to neg prop my comment here... They are all public sets, and all struggle for diggers, and get raped to hell, i would have assumed being a local he would not add to the shit by riding in the wet... apparently i am wrong. calling Porc hard dirt and using that justification for riding in the rain is just plain wrong... chalk... hard as fuck, i challenge you to ride that in the wet. I also dig sand, and know it has been too wet to ride recently, which is why I went home. today. Fair enough if he is the one to fix it, but i didnt see that happening. Normally people will film the tinyest bit of digging as justification for riding, even from the most well known trail rapists

Bullitproof (Jul 18, 2012 at 16:14)

how about you just go out and ride with him, that way you could stop bitching and have fun Smile

nosewillies (Jul 20, 2012 at 7:24)

Sorry James, but Jerons right in saying that PORC is fine to be riden in the wet.

jezzah (Jul 21, 2012 at 3:54)

That comment cracks me up. It boils down to you having a go at someone for not including digging shots in a video - which are boring as fookery.
