flag Maveri20 (Jun 3, 2010 at 11:51)
 First of all, I said a guy might as well wear a bra and thong if they're gonna wear skinny jeans because ONLY GIRLS SHOULD WEAR SKINNY JEANS AND GIRLS WEAR BRAS AND THONGS THEREFORE, IF YOU'RE GONNA BE A GIRL AND WEAR SKINNY JEANS YOU SHOULD COMPLETE THE OUTFIT. And secondly, I have absolutely nothing against gays but gay men like to check out other gay men so it would make sense for GAY men to wear skinny, revealing jeans (the reason why you should be called gay if you wear skinny jeans). But for all those straight men out there (myself included) who don't like to check out other men, skinny jeans are a problem when other males wear them because what straight man would want to see another man's figure like that?

 but the fact of the matter is, while in your opinion its only girls who should wear skinny jeans, in fact lots of men DO ACTUALLY WEAR THEM and obviously contrary to your ways of thinking; nope, skinny jeans apparently dont turn men into girls and its not mandantory for men to wear thongs and bras if they are wearing skinny jeans at all and i'm sure any man who wears skinny jeans would be just as confused as me if there was another man wearing skinny jeans, a bra, and a thong; according to you is the correct way of wearing skinny jeans for a man, to couple them with a bra and a thong. i cant see how anybody can quite justify doing this except of course for your theory that skinny jeans turn men into girls which is to be honest slightly... not true. it would also be very wrong to say every man who wears skinny jeans is gay, and/or likes to check out other men which is again what your saying since straight men who wear them, which is a lot, obviously dont. also, there are some significant differences between mens and womans skinny jeans, mens commonly being not so tight or "skinny" and they dont show off features as much.

 atmos-fair you know my stance completely so i will continue to think skinny jeans are only for girls (and you're gay if you wear them) and i'm sure as hell not the only man to think this. as for "people like me" stereotyping, skinny jeans are not the only type of clothing people stereotype on (if you wear a swastika on your shirt you're considered a nazi/white supremacist, you wear a suit and you're some sort of business person, etc) so get used to it.

 you can think that if you want, it will never be true though and you will always be misinformed. its fine for you to have your own opinion, i'm just explaining how i think you are wrong. i know you aren't the only person to think this and i know well that different clothing gets stereotyped but who seriously wears a swastika unless they ARE supporting white supremacy etc, or a suit if they aren't doing something business-related or something else that you would wear a suit for. People wear those things for a reason and you are essentially saying the only reason men would wear skinny jeans is if they were gay or female (which doesnt even make sense if they are men otherwise you wouldnt be complaining if they were woman wearing them... Facepalm) and its obviously not true that only gays and woman wear skinny jeans. i don't need to get used to "it" because guess what, i wear skinny jeans sometimes, i have a girlfriend; im straight, im not gay, im not a woman, and guess what, people dont think i am because of these blatently obvious reasons that prove wearing skinny jeans dont make you a girl or a gay...

 I race bmx, and can tell you, that airing is quicker than manualing, while almost as fast does require more effort and does not gain you much speed, where as shooting over a jump low, and then pumping into the landing, is much quicker. also there are no bumps in the air to slow you down, where as in a manual, the pump you are trying to manual too, slows you down as you go over it.

 Larkey. You are a dope.

Jumping is never faster. Only on Pro Sets. And on jumps like doubles with no backside/huge drop off on the first lip, but a very nice backside on the second lip.

What is faster through a rythym ? Manualing, Pumping, or Jumping ? A mix of Manuals and pumps. A manual is just a form of pumping without having both wheels on the ground for resistance.

P.S. - There are things called tap-manuals, pick-taps, pick-pedals, those are all faster than jumping if you can do them right.

 If you and I went through a rythym section side by side, you jump, and only jumped through it, I manualed and pumped through it, I would pull you.

Only under certain circumstances is jumping faster.

Pick manualing is the fastest way around the track, ever. But you can sit and think your right, that's okay too.

 Everything has a history and an evolutionary process and you can not pretend that what is done today has nothing to do with bmx. It simply is not possible to dissociate the two things, however you want. Face it. peace

 I never said bmx didn't have an influence on mountain biking, I said that if bmxs never existed or no mtn bikers ever paid attention to what was going on in the bmx world, people would still end up doing tricks on mtn bikes. Tricks on bikes is a form of expression and a style not limited to any one kind of bicycle. Face it.

 Of course not! Even before bmx bikes exist people do tricks on bikes... it´s a long way process and human nature. But in that process, some disciplines have much more influence, i think.

 Take a look at 4x. How could you see a 4x race without thinking on bmx? it´s impossible, except if you never see or ride a bmx race, or you try to extinguish bmx denying it?

 The "unknown" rider is Norways Sebastian Kartfjord who happens to be an olympian as well.

In 2008 Graves was among the best on his BMX bike, however in Copenhagen you could see he was still adapting to a BMX bike again (Copenhagen was only a week after the 1st WC 4X). Among others he did not get the full speed out of his manuals yet...
