  • + 3

  • + 3
 is this guy even able to ride a bike normally? mad mad skills, that is real XC, involves every type of riding Big Grin
  • + 4
 holy WHAT!? I think he just invented a new style of riding... that was like... "trail trials" haha, god damn impressive if I say so myself!
  • + 3
 i like this new style
  • + 4
 2.56. omg. but honestly, this is the most fun kind of biking ever. IK i don't do it like him, but every1 should give this a shot. all he does is make evrything he rides into a transition. he doesnt really force turns either, he just uses gravity and features to turn him. for example, the wall ride that followed the 2.56 shot. super sick, i love the style he has on all types of riding. best kind of biking imho. its like street xc. u know what i mean?
  • + 1
 That has to be THE coolest xc iv EVER seen!
  • + 11
 this movie makes me want punch women in the ovaries.
  • + 9
 uh. ok...... little over the top
  • + 4
 it made me lol
  • + 1
 Next thing hes going to hop on that sheep and do some crazy trials...
  • + 1
 Skillful representation of all mountain!
  • + 1
 I wish I could do that...:p
  • + 1
 duncanp its called toast... Smile
  • + 12
 Extreme XC anybody. Such sick riding, and sweet stream crossing. Has to be VOD
  • + 6
 What we have here is a trials biker who forgot what a trials bike looked like.
"Is this a trials bike?"
"No that's a road bike."
"Oh well..."
Next time...
"Is this a trials bike?"
"No that's a XC bike"
"Oh well..."
WHAT CAN'T THIS GUY DO TRIALS ON??!!:P
  • + 8
 and the one (I believe) it started with:
"is that a trials bike"
"well, yes actually"
"oh, err, where are the brakes then"
"I haven't got any...."

and he still shreds. An all round bike hero. He's too damn versatile with his talent! =D
  • + 1
 well you dont see that everyday
  • + 4
 now that's how xc should be ridden! loved the section down in the bottom of the glen, how you link stuff down there is beyond me! millions of lines but its so tight!
  • + 7
 Fuck yea YORKSHIRE!
  • + 4
 see when you start taking an XC bike and being better than 99% of riders at EVERY discipline on it.... kinda makes me feel a bit redundant lol. Amazing vid!
  • + 4
 Sick to see something different. I love all the DJ and downhill videos but I like to see something ridiculously difficult and different for VOD like this. PROPS!!!!!
  • + 1
 now that is a vod that just makes you go WOW!! and it makes me wanna show it to everyone i know. was he at the world champs in canberra, Australia? and if you wernt, you should have been!!

At 2:21 i was like "no way, hes not gonna do that"!!
  • + 1
 I just got my 2010 Teocali Super from Sovereign Cycle in Westbank BC!!! The bike is sick and honestly can do everything that Chris is doing on it! The angles are amazing and the bike feels endless for a 5.75" bike. Cant wait to push the limits on it this year!
  • + 3
 Man, this is an awesome VOD! You have some sick riding skills Mr. Akrigg tup I had to rewind the vid several times and watch what you did. Awesome scenery too!
  • + 3
 yo chris you´re the most inspireing rider i´ve ever seen ! sweet flow in any video, ripping on any ride given, really unbelievable skills. i love to watch your vids....
  • + 2
 that wallride was sweet looking and unexpected with the seat up so high, awesome trails and trial riding. love the technical stuff great job on the video.
  • + 2
 Probably my favourite VOD so far, thought it was going to be a standard cross country vid, but man that guy has some effortless skills
  • + 2
 woooo yorkshire moors! great to see something british Smile yorkshire tea, jam on toast, a nice yorkshire pub and great riding Smile brilliant Smile
  • + 1
 I bet it was a pint of tetleys too Wink
  • + 1
 that'd have been beaut Wink
  • + 1
 Something way, way more that just pulling those tricks. Do not let them make to good deal on you Chris! Wink
The combination of skill and invention makes this so much fun to watch.
  • + 3
 so refreshing to see something other than yet another back flip dj vid or short downhill section, cool
  • + 1
 chris akrigg you are the man, somehow saving trials riding for future generations while simultaneously not even riding a trials bike. you make everything look like loads of fun, this is what biking is about.
  • + 1
 to the comment how did that guy see the dead sheep at 50s well spotted tbh honest i was most impressed with his dancing skills on the log that alone deserves vod !! sweet vid faved
  • + 1
 that was flat out stellar! usually when i think xc i think spandex, uphill, and mellow descents but now i'll think woah that guy could probably rip shit at hoppin over stuff and such
  • + 3

 didnt even see that. had to rewind... probably died of shock after witnessing those crazy bike skills....lol
  • - 1
 as good as Macaskill??
  • + 2
 I think so, in different ways and styles of riding. Akrigg just makes everything he does look like a whole lot of fun and watching his vids just makes me want to get out on the trails. Macaskill is just so damn good that he makes me want to quit riding altogether! Between taking part in stuff like the Red Bull Mini-Drome, Cobble-Wobble, Mega-Avalanche, brakeless trials, and trail riding like this, it's hard to say that he's as good as Macaskill, but you can definitely say he gets around quite a bit and is super fun to follow! Gotta give credit to both guys though!
