VOD please! He deserves it. Reminds me on the Fox supported rider Blind Bobby McMullen. It'd be way cool to see them rip with each other.
Wow. I am actually very impressed and moved by your motivation dude. Losing your leg to cancer, living to tell about it and riding. You do not give up man, don't ever give up. You are good rider and nothing is better than some excersise like cycling. You are doing so much for the mtb community and the Cancer patient community by letting them know no matter how bad things get, they should never stop doing what they love. I am honestly left with no words, you get to ride after a deadly disease and live to tell about it, others just go straight home to God. Keep it going man, you are an inspiration to us all showing us that there is nothing stronger than human faith and hope. VOD.
You're great. You give soo much motivation to other disabled people. After watching that vid I can say you ride better than many healthy people like me. You're my master!
I watched the whole video without paying any attention to the first part... and i was amazed, then watching again i realized he only had one leg.... amazing
If no one had told me he was an amputee i would still think its a sick video with good riding and still VOD worthy.
I want to be able to Tbog and table that nicely

hoollyy! whoa! what a dude! he should definitely look into that company that the other guy with one leg formed to develop the metal leg with shocks etc. though i'm not sure he needs it, he rips on one! mega props to him and his lifestyle 
Holy shit!!! Good shit man! Nothing is immpossible. Where there is a will there is a way and this guy has more guts than most peeps!!!
My jaw was on the floor that whole video. I was thinkin he was going to have a prosthetic leg or something! That was so amazing!
riding alone must be so difficult but that smoothly is incredible, i have so much respect for you dude, cancer at such a young age is so unlucky, keep riding! everyone fav. this!
Everyone took the words out of my mouth. He is the very definition of inspiration. He rides very well, on top of that. Props to him.
wow what a great story and an inspiration!Definatly deserves vod that photo above could also be pod! What agreat rider he is killing it and with one leg thats even crazier. Anything is possible!
I mean holy cow, that is freakin amazing. The determination this guy has to just go out and shred is truly 100% Mega props dude!
amazing guy, all the best Pat! never give up, you´re indeed an inspiration for the whole mtb-community!
does anyone know or remember that guy that lost his leg too? but still rides a bike with a fake leg?he even invented that leg with fox suspension i think.
maybe someone should get this guy a leg
maybe someone should get this guy a leg
his name is brian bartlett.. and yes he makes legs for guys like this, but he doesnt sell them, he gives them to people. but the guy in the video doesnt see himself as handicapped, hes ripping harder than a lot of us with 2 legs do. I have mad respect for that.
Dude I dont know If your being serious or not....but cmon.....grow up.
He's probably better than you.
Edit: Nevermind his post got deleted

this vid is absolutley brilliant - well impressed that he hasn't given up even after everything he's been through. Definately deserved VOD!!
This really makes me think, if this guy has one leg imagin what he could do with two... but wow big inspiration. and corners very well, wow.
i dont really pay attention to all the comments on vods, ill try to make something super clever and original next time haha
wow.i just watched this and called my wife and kids over to see it.all of us were dead quiet and my kids jaws were wide open.here is me complaining today because it has been raining just about everyday since christmas...i just have to ride now.even a "townhill " ride i dont care.it is pitch black outside but im going to find my lights and head out right away........thanks to however did this.
we're gonna try at sea otter to get him a full ride.. he deserves it. insane that he's still on a hard tail.
this guy is REALLY good! i have so much respect for him. thats love for the sport right there! a true inspiration
wow this vid brought the unity!!!!! this is the first vod ive seen that everyone is not bitching or making stupid ass comments its nice to see the respect that he gets and deserves . give your self a big ol pat on the back !!!
i agree with all the above you are a f*cking champion good on you keep shreding. Cant imagine how good you would be with two legs, but life is a bitch an we have to make do with what we've got an you sure are doing that. Your a inspiration to people that think they cant do something or its impossible
What about it?
A beautiful example of overcoming!

He's sure got his one footers dialled. seriously thought one of the most inspiring things ive seen (up there ith tp's 199 lives), i dont think i ever have a right to complain about things again. he is a fantastic example of manning up. you deserve a god dam medal!!!
video of the year 4 sure.
if this dose not get u amped up to go 4 a ride then u should not be on a downhill bike.

just saw this on vital... words cannot describe this
On a hardtail no less!
He is a true BAMF! He has more flow, style, skill, speed, and balls than most.
Makes me weak in the knees... jaw dropped!
Best VOD in a VERY long time

Omg, seems like it is going to be FACT, that you don't need leg to ride with bike, you just need to have balls and a lot of guts!!!!!! Real props to this guy. And ofc, nice style!!!! 
[Reply]
major props to this guy! The fact that he can ride like that blows me away! He should have a chat with Brian Bartlett, he designed a prosthetic leg that allows amputees to be able to stand on the pedals normally. Again, mad props to this dude!!!
Good for you Patrick. I have a buddy that just had an accident and lost the movement in his right arm. he was a great hockey player on are team and now he cant play. Hes gonna get surgey and I hope some day he can play hockey with us again. It just goes to show you that how we take the simple things for granted.
Can anyone think of a better word than inspirational? I sure as hell can't. Best video on Pinkbike I have ever seen. It's what mtb should be all about.
when i first saw this video i was like pretty good video but not sure if it deserves vod................but then i realized this guy had 1 leg and man that is amazing that guy rides better than alot of people and he only has 1 leg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, this definatly deserves vod 
Great Song, Great Editing, Great Video, Great guy.
It's amazing to see him pushing this hard and not letting anything get in his way. Amazing job man.
I don't think anyone can imagine what it's like to ride like that, yet alone go through what he's gone through from such an early age. It just must be a whole new dynamic of riding, taking those turns, jumping and landing. And the amount of balance that's required when missing a leg like that..great great riding; don't be fooled by how easy he makes it seem.

I also didn't think it was even possible...sweet and yes, he's better than ALOT of riders with 2 legs. Kinda makes me sick when you have guys like this rippin it up making good riding vids and then you have morons with two legs on this site that make retarded videos that make fun of good riders instead of riding.
Good for you manny!
Good for you manny!
not only is he riding with 1 leg, he is ripping on a hardtail. lets put this together. hard tail. one leg. better than a lot of the people of fS bikes....god
I remember racing him at Sunol BMX like 12 or 13 years ago, getting my ass kicked, and trying to figure out how he was SOO good. I have so much respect for him!
This is a demonstration of your motivation. I am really impress. Don't stop continues. I want to see other VOD of you and your talent.
Your are a model for all mtbiker.
Your are a model for all mtbiker.
Big respect to you Pat ! Nothing can stop you doing what you love.... agree with CoN-Air15, most respectful video on PB so far.... Keep riding Pat, makes my day watching this video....
WOW!!!!! that's amazing! i thought that he would have ridden with a prosthetic leg (more stable?). my sisters ex boyfriends has one arm is a National level road rider and is probs going to the next Olympics (for velodrome) and he said that he had never heard of someone riding extreme stuff with a missing limb! inspirational stuff man!!! keep it up!!!
that is just amazing. i always thought i could never bike if i lost a leg. but now.. well... i still dont want to loose a leg.. but... just never mind.. haha. thats just amazing. so inspiring
[Reply]
wow..... one leg!!!! you'r in inspiration to a lot of people... including me... with 1 leg and ur doing everything better then a lot of people with two legs.... just amazing!!
thats sweet i can t even jump but seeing him man i can try now lol thats awww inspiring like every one said if he can with that skill anyone can i have nothing but respect for him
That is probably the most amazing/ motivating thing i have seen in my life major prop's for the determination dude. well deserved VOD!
[Reply]
that is unbeleiveably i broke my foot and it felt like it was the end of the world cause i couldnt bike but you inspire anyone to never give up no matter what happens good job and i think this deserves vod!!!!
WOW! Dude, you rip so hard! I have so much respect for you and your riding. If you ever want to come shred the Alps with me let me know. Amazing!
see its shit like this that is such an inspiration at least to me. huge props man and keep shredding
ohh my god...dude keep riping you have one leg that sucks but u ride harder than meny of riders u got skill..and lots of it... bigg props go to him
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw! your a inspiration to everyone. I never thought that was possible your such an amazing person. i could never do what your doing if i had lost my leg at the age you did. im mesmerized
People are gonna remember the tony hawks and cam Mcauls of extreme sports but i think people like you should be remembered more
Holy Crap dude, You have more style with one leg than I'll ever have with two. I JUST GOT A NEW IDOL FOR BIKING. Cancer sucks dude i lost my grandma and cousin from that. but that doesn't stop you.
This is nearly impossible. I'm amazed. I think he can become even BETTER using that new fox powered leg invented by this guy riding a sunday. 
Man I have some mad respect for you. When everyone else thinks some things are hard you laugh at them and hop on a bike with one leg. You're the man.
man that commited mega props to him for riding with one leg as soon as he said i lost my leg to cancer i expected a prosphetic but not even that keep riding dude !
Huge props for you mate! Very sad to hear about your leg, but be positive, the life doesn't end! You are riding like God, and on a hardtail!! WOW!! Amazing!! 
dude freakin rips! it has to be quite difficult learning to jumping and rail corners when your crank is pointing straight down all the time
I am very impressed yeahh really stay strong ..u are very strong person and i wish u good luck!!!!VOD AND ONE OF THE BEST VOD EVER I SEEN!!!!COOL MATE !!!
Huuuuuge huge huge respect to you!
Very glad that you've found the opportunity to ride further.

Just shows what you really can put your mind to it! I take my hat of to that guy.. Real respect man... Truelly inspirational... 
dam!!! I was stund at this! I thought he was gonna whip out some wicked prostetic like ive seen some guys use, but to not use one! Mega Huge props to you man!
You should check out leftsideincdotcom. the guy lost his leg above the knee and crafted a prostetic for it.
obviously he dosent have a prosteic and he looks like he's doing fine, but i'm just suggesting it to make his life slighly easier. either way mad props for riding still.
if he had two legs i would have thought he was a sick rider but with one this man has huge talent and deserves the up most respect from every one nice one mate !!!!!!!!!!!!
props this guy is an inspertion
but couldnt he get a prosthetic leg then it would be easyer to walk around insted of one leg but i supose there probly cost alot

Major props to Patrick. Just amazing.
