Build It, Ride It: Technical jumps, steep rock gardens and small catch'a berms were mandatory features in Nick Jordan and his boy's hand-built trail in New Zealand. These guys spent the better part of New Zealand's winter building a new mountain bike trail near Christchurch, the Sargent Choco. Full of jumps, rock gardens and berms it really has all the ingredients required for an amazing MTB trail. As soon as summer rolled round, shovels were stored and the beast was finally unleashed!

After watching that base jump, I'm left marveling at how fine the line is between pushing the sport and flat out death wish. Glad he was able to thread the needle on that one.
I would say pure stupidity and death wish, but other people watch our sport probably with exactly the same eyes as I watch this.
I'm wondering why he bothers wearing that helmet. It's not going to safe his life if he crashes full speed into that rock. Better off not wearing a helmet and be dead faster when things go wrong.
i didnt know anyone still rode rollerblades. but credit where its due that first grind was straight out of jet set radio future! (if you dont know what that is you are missing out)
Man, rollerblades are awesome, better than skateboard. Imagine that you have wheelsunder your feet that are connected to you. Learn a flip, and they will follow. Pure awesomeness, planning to get a pair of those.
Better than skateboards? Yes. Because 99% of the skateboarders lose their board at every single trick they try (that's why I don't like it in general, but when a pro skateboarder pulls a dialed run I think it is sick). But better than bikes? Hell no.
here's my dick comment of the day... While it's impressive and something I could never ever do...the quad back flip is just that...4 flips. Yawn. At this point it's like Gillette razors...the creativity is gone, just add one more blade to the razor and have the Gillette Quatro and now the gilette Cinco and Sexto and Septo and pretty much so on and so on. Rather than adding 1 more flip or one more rotation how about something creative and new?
Totally agree too. When I saw the headline of "Chase for the biggest trick in action sports history" I was inquisitive, when I saw it was a quad flip I thought meh. I mean these guys have air bags, perfectly engineered take off's etc. and from what it looks like they are just hucking themselves backwards and hoping they land rubber side down on the 4th rotation. Heck 90% of the tech shit that skateboarders and BMX guys do these days takes a lot more skill. For my vote, I think Tom Vansteezeburgers 76ft front flip was the greatest thing in action sports to date.
I agree. Always felt the same about so called World's Firsts, that are all about 'just squeezing another one in there'. The lamest is when people start squeezing barspins into regular tricks / combos and call it a world's first. Hundreds of worlds firsts have been done but 95% is not worrth calling a world's first.
A worlds first in my opinion is landing a cash roll, or Matt MacDuffs superman seatgrab to tailwhip, where he uses his seatgrab to give his bike the flick to go into the tailwhip. But a backflip tuck no hander to barspin is not a worlds first anymore in my opinion.
Don't get me wrong, they have insane skills and are super awesome for actually pulling it off. But I don't like how it's being blown out of proportions with labeling the trick.
Man...Movies for Your Monday's gonna make me broke and probably get me killed. Now I have to buy some rollerblades, a mini bmx, and a wingsuit. Ironically it'll be the atempted bubba scrub that does it, though.
But better than bikes? Hell no.
