pod man hes disabled and still probley rips harder than me
This guy definitely deserves props, i mean, if i were disabled like that, i would probably be scared to do that
AGClarko is probably twelve years old and balls haven't dropped
you don't have a choice but to make the best of what you have when you are disabled, jackass
he's making more of life than you ever will

come on you little rugrat. you think you could blast down a hill and hit tables/doubles when your legs are f**ked up, come on buddy. it may not be the biggest gap but for having no legs (well legs that dont work), it is pretty f'in sick. If i ever had something happen to me, i would try and ride those things, but probably not like him. give him a rest you twit.
and props to the camera man, looks like you shot this at the right angle and right time.

Wow. WTF is wrong with you AGLARKO? You are suck a f*ckin dick. Why the f*ck would you rip on a disabled person like that? You can go suck your own balls you lousy piece of shit.

who cares... i've wanted one since i first saw Trevair and Stacy Kohut ripping it...looks like sooo much fun. POD.
Not wrong at all, this sport is for anyone. The first able bodied competitor in sanctioned competition was my friend Hollywood Mike Miranda at Woodward West on April 1 last year. We SMOKED him, but he tried...

pod, those guys in 4wheelers are amazing they shred harder then most people and they are disabled, i heard stacy and tracy up in whistler sometimes testride new traks, its good to see the world lookin out for disabled people and the disabled people rippin it hard, majour respekt
i dunno, but i dont think i would want to be belted in, what if you flipped it youd get so owned.

im sure if he wasnt disabled he would be riding on two wheels. massive props to this guy, i would be so scared doing this!
I would be scared too! I saw one of these guys killin' it in Whistler last summer, and he was friggin' insane. Didn't care what was in front of him, just plowed over it and kept motoring...it was great to see nothing holding these guys back...
you guys are idiots. hes saying that figuratively he doesn't look disabled because the bike is breaking the bounds of his impairment. though he is handicapped, on that bike he doesn't have a disability.
awesome photo man. love the flair on the bike. keep it up!

"he doesnt look too disabled to me when hes in the air like that"
he doesnt mean that as a bad thing. hes saying that he doesnt seem disabled liek hes normal!!!!! he meant it as he overcame a challenge and now its like hes not disabled!!!!!!!!!! he wasnt puttign him down. He was saying he looks liek any other rider disabled or not! he doesnt deservenegitive props

for the guys comment tahts like -760 props. thats not even bad, sayin he looks like hes in ful control and makin it seem like hes not handicapped
People are still giving him neg props! WTF! this guy was giving a world of a compliment and has gotten more neg's than any comment I have ever seen lol
i agree with austin. you guys have given him the most -props i have ever seen one person get, and nobody f*ckin' understands what he meant! he's saying that when the rider's in the air like that, he looks like a normal rider, using control and balance and shit.. i mean be honest for a sec and think, would anyone here be ballsy enough to bomb down a sick DH coourse on somwthing like that? and please, nobody comment with what the f*cked-up retard "AGClarko" said

guaranteed that his grandma couldn't do that. he's just trying to make up for the fact that he has NO BALLS!!!!! let me know in a message to my board on what you think about this comment

The first guy's point is that disability is the inability to do things due to physical restrictions. Hes saying that though this dude may not be able to use his legs, when hes flying like this there doesnt seem like theres anything holding him back. Hes not arguing with the fact that the guy is disabled. So if you guys thought a bit more about it you'd realize he doesnt deserve -173 props or whatever it is. Props to the first comment and major props to the rider and photographer. Peace
Great pic, saw a dude (could have been the same guy) ripping up whistler a couple of years back, was sick to watch him!such a good pic aswel, AMAZING! oh and gibson...POD POD POD POD!
[Reply]
I have to give all my respect to this amazing rider...He has such a strong will to pursue biking the way he does, props
[Reply]
i would do anything to have that bike, i feel bad for the guy though, but at least hes doin something he loves, its what we all love to do...
yea i was just thinking of that bike video that has a clip of a paralyzed guy doing the same thing here awsome job!!!!
Whys everyone saying it would be so scary?
He has 2 extra wheels!!!
And its not a bike. Bikes have 2 wheels.
Still he must be pretty dedicated going to that level.

[Reply]
are f*&^%ng kidding me that is awesome, if i ever get injured to where i cant bike or anything like that this is what im doin for sure! ( if i have enough balls )
i have a question, because it has 4 wheels woudnt it be harder 2 ride than a normal bike, cause when u land a quad a little side ways it can mess u up big time
[Reply]
all the ppl that are making fun of my uncle for being handycap can go die its not his fault he got hit by a car. Also he did ride a two wheeler but its kind hard when ur legs dont work, he kept his dream as a rider going in a differnt way
How can it be electronic now it wouldnt go fast enough to do a jump if it was electronic. but sweet pic man and who cares if hes disabled at least hes trying.
[Reply]
you're an inspiration eric for a lot of people. been lucky enough to talk to stacey once or twice and you guys get a lot of people stoked watching ya ride. cheers. keep riding.

sweet pic great angle. POD no doubt about it. my dads in a chair too, but hes a quadriplegic not paraplegic like that guy
Ya how does he get speed? Like pedaling and all? And if it's electronic it's not considered biking anymore.
That's such an awesome pic! Props to the rider! If I lose the ability of my legs, I'll definitely be riding one of those things. I've never seen one myself, but if you ned to pedal, how do they push themselves forward?
[Reply]
amazing pic! the people who ride those bikes have so much skill! all the people who have said anything negative about this rider need to get a life!!
You push the rear wheels to move around kinda like a wheelchair. Speed is all about DOWNHILL baby!!! Take the chair lift or shuttle with you truck to the top and then DONT TOUCH THE BRAKES!!!!!

I have seen crank Worx 4x with guys in these machines. they rip up the course something feirce which is absolutley awsome to see! I love how nuffin holds these guys back and I think we can learn a lil something about life from all of em. As for those retards who think its photoshopped get a life!

You wouldn't be able to brake as much, because you can't gain speed again by pedaling. But this sort of riding rocks
I broke my back last year (three compression fractures) however experienced no danger to my spinal cord amazingly. I have to say I love biking more than anything, but I was scared to get back on the bike. Mad props, it takes huge commitment to get back into it and your courage should be admired by all. Keep rippin it up.
[Reply]
I'm curios to know how it happened, is it because of biking ? Was a time when you ride 2 wheels bikes? Anyway my respect to you. What doesn't kill you ,makes you stronger.
I did race 2 wheels before. I crashed off of a bridge riding home from work one night 4 years ago (on my VP FREE)...

that guy is probably fine. those bikes are starting to grow in popularity in the UK. there was even a article about them in MBUK about a year ago.
Actually, i'm paralyzed from the waist down. That is not to say that these bikes are not riden by fully able bodied people. Hollywood Mike Miranda raced one at Woodward West in April.
Ha! that's funny, the first comment has -608 props, what an idiot! We should give him an award for most negative props on pinbike...

And twice the snow!!!!
I have a used one for sale for $5500 with some spare parts. You can currently buy new ones from R-one for $11,500. I hope that the organization I am working with to develop the next generation of bikes (Active Force Foundation) will be ready sometime this summer for sale at around $8500.

chumpface1515 is a real chump and a disgrace to biking calling a cripple a good for nothing f*ggot. what a dick, nice pic.
ps: chumpface1515, go f**** yourself for being so rude to someone who has lost his legs. Cause i totally respect people who are legless or armless.

You guys making negative comments are bloody morons. Just because it has four wheels doesn't make it easier. If you topple that thing you're probably more screwed than you would be on a bike.
To all the idiots, shut the hell up and get a life. Good to see people with disabilities getting past them!
Great photo, and kudos to the rider!

If the little wooden wall rides on Crank It Up at Whistler count, then yes I can. I have gotten all 4 wheels on the wood there...
Man this guy really gots some balls. If I were disabled like that I would be hella scared and I'd never find the courage to do shit like that. I give that guy mad props. Keep it up dude! Oh and FUKK that AGClarko dude. Thats guy is probably some piece of shit college dropout who can't even ride a bike for shit. He probably makes fun of people because he is insecure about his oversized waistline
[Reply]
Briliant jump...if he'd give up he'd never do as amazing things as he can do now. Bravo for that guy!
Hell yeah! He really shows how to use your life, even if you have any disabling damages or anything like that. It really depends sometimes, but props to this man! A real rolemodel for damn sure! Keep up the good work and ride like a hero! Sweet picture too! Maaaad Prooops!
[Reply]
Obviously, some people here are a lot more disabled than this guy. Show some respect please. He might be disabled but hes addicted to the sport and life. I really wonder how those people would feel if they were in the same situation as the rider.
[Reply]
well good pic, i wud be shitting myself going down on that thing!
all the people who sed the disabled cnt do f*ck all your all ignorant dicks
you wudnt be sayin all that shit if you were disabled, this guy is showing tht he can do wot others can and better

POD ive seen guys ride these tings and they shred so hard i saw a guy at whistler with one and he was hitting the slopstlye stuff
To reply to my old comment up at the top, i must note that i must have been intoxicated at the time being, for that was a very silly and very stupid comment i posted. Sorry for the stupidity of it all. Well thank you for the punch in the face. Again i say tho, props to this guy for still riding. Bye now
