yesss that was beutiful! haha i know a guy that still has an old rocky mountain pipeline. what a rig!
I still have a pipeline well the rear triangle is cracked but i was riding it until last march and its not an xc bike infact it is credited as the very first true freeride bike f*ck man i cant believe the drops they did on that thing back in the day though.

hell yeah that video and ride to the hills influenced me to buy a decent mountain bike and start jumpin off everything in my neighborhood. especially growing up in a place with no transitions.

that video is from 1999 cuz that was the purple and yellow pipeline witch was the first model then they were grey and black then red
But the team had them in '98, and it looks like the same bike he rode in Kranked 2, so that would be my guess. Now I finally know where that sequence in the NSMB screensaver is from though!
ya shift is the title, and if you want a copy your probably only going to have luck at the local pawn shops, but first you will need to find a working VCR, that video is old bawls. I have a copy of it at home and im not going to lie, it still gets shown at least once a month in the summer
nice vid i like it but hello pinkbike it has been old school
videos 2 days in a row? show us some new videos please,but it´s funny to look on ooooold vidoes but not so often

Wade Simmons was and remains to be one of the greatest the sport has ever had. No one was doing that back then!
i second that...this vid was the reason i started riding...pretty much owe all my riding related life to that segment actually...wade inspired me....great guy too...ridden with him in whistler...

it was late 90's. i use to have a black and green pipeline that i believe it was a 2000 and that purple and green one was a year or 2 older. i'd put it in 97 or 98 that it was filmed

remember the days when you broke cranks and bottom brackets all the time? He breaks his bb twice in this segment.
Thanks to the industry for making stuff stronger over the years....I havent snapped a bb in quite some time.

man oh man... i miss that video. thanks for posting it.
For f*cks sake how the f*ck can any one watch that peice of shit like come on now a drop wow thats exciting i can do all on my f*ck'n hardtail it dose not deserve to be a v.o.d
shut up noob. i know you couldn't do 1\4 of the things shown in the vid and would chicken out to atleast half of it. you only wish you had the skills of Wade. (even back then)
f*ck you man you probably go huck drops without a seat so when you land your seat post goes up your ass why dont you go stick you dick in your rotor and pedal FUK YOU JAKASS
im happy all u old peolpe watch this and bring back memories but if ur not old this videos blows dicks!
again...wtf is with you little retards...if your not old?? i'm 20 and i know this video...and own it...so do as you say the vid does and blow a dick
naw man im not old but this video still kicks ass it shows us how it all started its great without those days we wouldnt be where we are now i love all the old videos you always will find one thing in every oldschool video that would just like sketch you right the f*ck out if you tried it and thats whats so cool they were doing some still really sick shit on bikes that were so much worse then what we are used to now. those guys had balls man
there was one guy man and he still rides and he is around his 40's now His name is( WADE SIMMONS) you should know who he is tard if you live in canada and are into freeriding, he is the god father of freeriding And one of the very few people that started this era of mountain bikeing. This guy will be remmeberd for ever and is a part of history he is a lot better now but he had a lot more skill than he had to show there becuase of the bikes, every time i watch it i respect this guy so much for what he has done to the sport and makes me want to be him. (long like the ledgend of Freerideing) (WADE SIMONS)
i remember my dad would show me these vids when i was like 10 and they still get me as stoked as they used to lol. wade simmons is the man! i think we should have a day of the week where and oldskool vid is vod!
Seeing as how Im prolably as old as your dad, I'll 2nd that!! Old school is dead! Long live the old school!
that was wicked to see that again. when did that video come out? like 99 or something? you don't have to be that old to remember this video in all of its glory, i am 21 now and i got into downhill in my early teens when these videos were first making there mark. ride to the hills which came out a year or two after this is still a dope video by any means.

I think wade is amazing, super smooth and stylish rider. And the 360.. that was awesome. anyone that thinks this video sucks can leave my mtb scene please (because your probably the people that annoy me at the hill and on the trails). bike are built for fun have fun and shut up!
Wade Simmons is still one of my idols....that man is the most fun to watch, and a solid/fluid rider too. SICK! Nice Vid!!
haha the good old days when it was all about droppin 15 feet to flats and breaking the bikes lol This video's making me feel like their's still hope lol
I'm 22, and I remember buying this on VHS when i first started to ride. Got me stoked then, gets me stoked now. Wade Simmons, Dangerous Dan, old school Ryan Leech, Chris Holm. right on!

sorry this is the son Originally writen by elton john but this who turns it into a more rock song - Me first and the gimme gimmes album- Have a Ball , song - Rocket man
man if i rode bikes back in 1999 and was as good as i am now I would so be pro. I'd just have to do it on a hella sketchy bike.
thats the difference between innovaters and those who just follow. You (or me or basically anyone else on here) didnt think to try that back then, we saw what was possible due to people like Wade and then tried to copy them as best we could. Its silly to compare to the past, imagine what Wade would be doing if he was a grom today? The groundwork would alrdy be laid and he would be pushing it to another level due to his abilty to see lines where normal people dont, etc.
I remember seeing this and Kranked 1 and realizing that I now had a direction. I was into XC and a sort of street trials on an ultralite Gary Fischer XC bike without any riding buddies. The images that marked me the most were the kickpedal drops to stair trannies. Funny how things have evolved. Was that snapped bb shot also in Kranked 1 or 2?
Funny how a year before those videos there weren't any freeride pros and the next year there were like 5 and now....
lol... i love this vid, this and robbie bourdons segment in nwd1..they always did street with fullys back then eh, the do street with fullys in kranked 1 and 2 aswell, not sure bout number3
