nice! looks good
I once tried hitting a gap jump on a tandem at interbike. It didn't end well.
Props to these guys for hitting a drop on that.

I would really like to see the video to see how the landing turned out. That takes some serious coordination and teamwork.
hahaha, I built a tandem out of three beaten up old BMX bikes, me and my mate only just got it to school and back so props to these guys!
f*ckin insane pod. these guys look hardcore for tandem riders
keepon riding thats the sickest shit ive seen on here in a while
..im wonderin if theres a rear shock??

yeah, and I guess all the awestruck kids are fake too. What those guys are doing is possible, just very hard.
Tks for the support guys, you should have seen My ( back rider) superman seat grab that followed that car drop. I'll be sure to post more action pics
wow that better get pod, just cause its something you dont see every day, and cause they are on a car
That is insane. Big applause to the guy in the rear. I wouldn't make it not having controle of the handlebar.

ahah "wileskws" it would deff be a team effort. thats a sick photo btw, haha deff pod, verry different and prolly harder than it looks

Where are the rules that dictate whether something is POD material anyway? Just because it's not someone hucking off a 100 ft. cliff while doing a quadruple backflip doesn't make it any less POD-worthy. I hate it when people say a pic isn't POD worthy. When you are the ADMIN of pinkbike, then you can say whether or not a pic is POD-worthy. Until then, shut up and stop leaving these stupid comments.
No, he said that because it's a bad quality picture. Not taking anything away from the riders-but it is PHOTO of the day.

Go suck some more dick in someone else's country and get out of Australia... being racist like that. Have some f**king respect for other countries.
Well.... Killing stupid people usually causes public outrage. The general population believes it is politically incorrect to murder the ignorant/ inept. I say let the little bed stain live his life....That will be enough punishment on its own. In the end natural selection will take over.
i didn't know candians were their own race....but seriously, this guy's a douche bag! i agree 100% with all 3 of you guys.

wow that's co-operation action. I can't figure out a switchback or drop; this is awesome Nice lOl POD
THat looks like fun, but enough with the funny PODs I want to see some huge drop or an intense trick.
the first time i saw this it looked like a sequence, but then i saw 1 bike and 2 riders. props. i bet thats hard

It is a downhill tandem. Ellisworth Makes them. A relic from the Bender sender days. Pretty sick looking with I think 8" in back and monster in front. I wanna see someone rip a trail on one. That would be crazy!
Correct, but I think the Ellsworth Tandem was 6 inches in the back. There is a scene in Warren Miller's Storm where a few guys crash one in Virgin, Utah...
Actually it is an Ellsworth Witness, with 4" inches of travel in the rear. Any more travel and the Stroker (the rear rider) would lose a lot of pedaling power. That Miller video is pretty tweaked, I couldn't imagine falling on that rig. I would feel so bad if I ate it on top of the other rider and hurt him. It would be a comfy fall hahahah.

Sweet POD. Never seen anything like that in my life. Props to both riders!
bch8e5 - Your an A**hole! I am canadian and totally proud of it!!!

That would be so hard to coriograph pulling up before that drop, those rump riders are probably having quite the adventure.
That looks soo sketchy. That would be so hard to work together with someone on a bike but props for bein able to do that.
I think the front guy is getting ready to pull the front end up for a decent landing but remembers in the same moment "OH f*ck, ITS A TANDEM" ^^
the guy in the back just knows one thing "I am not first" ^^

Good to see the Olsen twins back on the bike. I'm pretty sure Ashley is steering and Mary-Kate is stoker.

P.O.D = Picture Of the Day. We're a biking community. We're on this site because we all have one thing in common, Two wheels and a Frame. Let the XC guys do what the XC guys do best. Let the DH guys what the DH guys do best. Freeriding, urban, jumping, TANDEM!!!, we're all doing what God put us on this earth to do- Shred up the mountains. Whether that's uphill or down. You have a problem with guys riding tandem? (and last time I looked at the picture, that was some serious tandem riding). They're enjoying the ride. Go enjoy yours. It's the POD, you can't change it, and all the negative opinions suck anyway.

your the biggest dick ever bch8e5.go to hell,im f*cking candian and i dont like it when u call us that
how the f*ck dos that work i want to see some video some time i cant belve thay can ride doun hill on that
Thanks Guys, I don´t ride that tandem for 2 years now, but feeling very nostalgic about it ( Sponsor Changes). I had The time of my life riding it from the back seat, its awesome, it takes full trust on your front buddy and a good set of team work. We use to Ride it on national DH champs, we were always the first to go on track so we could have time to set four our individual runs. Its a Super Monter Fork, 300 mm travel. I have some more pics around my PC. Stay tunned on my album, i will try to upload some soon. Thanks to all tha liked it
Geez, I kinda want to know what bch8e5 said. It's deleted now. It sure pissed off a bunch of you. Accually, I don't want to know. Nice pic BTW, and for sure, the skill involved here is through the roof.
