very clear minded. pod worthy for sure

bananowy (Dec 12, 2008 at 3:02)

as repa224 said, it would be impossible to tear it off while controlling the bike with one hand at high speed on a bumpy track - so airtime is the time

Whoinventeduphill (Dec 26, 2008 at 18:01)

moto riders all take em off mid air.

bigburd (Jan 29, 2009 at 3:22)

Indeed a one hander on dirt jumps would not have the 'wow' factor , but doing one at 30mph+ in race speed on jumps that are not really intended for clown tricks is !

onone26 (Jun 30, 2009 at 21:46)
