An enthusiastic 12-year-old learns to ride bike stunts the hard way: crash, crash, CRASH! This was in the 2004 Banff Mountain Film Fest.
Poor bike... Hopefully the guy wear some protection... But if he continu mountain biking he won't get to 20 years old LOL
wot r u on about. the kids 12 years old. look at what he is trying. the kid has balls!! most crashes wer probly cos of the dog. lol
I feel so sorry for your bike, it needs a better rider and needs to stop being crashed every stunt you try
the whole point of it is him crashing on purpose to make a film... and yes some of the times are real falls... shouldnt be vod i dont care what anyone says
you people who think this is all staged and fake should go make your own movie just like this except stage the falls he had. you just try it. if he was just leaning to ride a bike let alone do dh and trials then no wonder he falls.
wow what a disgrace. you should be on jackass.com not pinkbike.com. congratulations you can drive off boardwalks and ram on your front brake. beside you are wearing full body armour and not even going fast. waste of my life.
wow this was seriously a vod, fuck thats rediculous
his fork istn't even heavy. what a fucking douche
i dont think its faked
my frend used mechanichal brakes for his entire life and he got i bike with hidraulic brakes and he fliped over evry 2nd time he used the front brake
usually u put all ur good shots, and then a few crashes at the end, i guess this guy got it backwards
I cant believe this made the banff film festival i missed that year and my dad told me about this vid and said it was funny but i think it shouldn't have made it to the festival i guess climders and ski bums like this stuff
peter not to put him down cos he never stops trying but im 12 and ive done a 20ft gap onto a platform 10 ft up and another 20ft down and found it easy,ive got pics on my acc
change the name from "heavy fork" to "i suck at biking" and instead of a video, it can be a documentary
i think that kid has to be the least tallented bicycle rider ive ever seen, sorry buddy but if i were you i would just give up while you cans till walk
[Reply]
if you've disrespected the rider in this video....it doesn't surprise me.....because your reactions just prove my point.....we all crash....but you all have fragile, delicate little egos and can't admit that sometimes....you're not cam mccaul.....this kid.....falls.....as much as any of you.....but has the balls to document it....make a crash video.....and laugh at himself. you should all take lessons....relax a little bit.....if people find out that you're not a pro-level rider......it's not the end of the world....the faceless users that read your comments on pinkbike won't condemn you....and maybe....just maybe.....you may still be able to be.....bare naked with a girl.
ok....thats pushing it.
All you dumb little pricks need to read above the things Goldenizen is saying - he made the video of this rider. It was his first ever summer on a bike, he didn't pussy foot around, he went at things full on so yah, crashes happened. The 'heavy fork' thing is a joke, if you can't figure that out I feel for you in life, you won't make it too far. Like Goldenizen says above, he rips now, I guarantee he would out ride 95% of you shit talking little twats.
How is it people can watch this and not pick up the sarcasm? Relax folks! At least he's trying, and he's just a kid... the title of the vid wasn't "Lacondeguy's day out" or anything. I mean, I'm 28 and if I made a vid of all my crashes in a year it would certainly be longer than that one. Do the rest of you 12 and 13 year old kids flaming this guy really go a whole season without crashing? That's how we learn is it not? Like the Goldenizen dude says "he can do it now" so what's the problem?
give the boy some slack.
alright, maybe he isnt a naturally talented mtb'er like some of you,
but at least he is trying, and hes got persistance,
and at the end, you see him doing the bits he couldnt do earlier in the vid, that just shows how much he loves riding really!
Hallelujah! This kid rips now because he persevered. He would put most of you shit-talkers to shame with his talent.
I wanna ride with this kid just for the entertainment. What he lacks in talent he makes up in determination.
[Reply]
are you guys all stupid he did it as a joke he can obviously ride and is canada the only country that has a sense of humour haha and a spelling problem
[Reply]
yo. you should try ping-pong..
but seriously..none of those wipeouts were that gnar..just some endo's n stuff off of skinnies. been there. If this guy can take that kind of beating....he's gonne keep on givin' er. That was 3 years ago..i bet he shreds now. Dude was only 12. Were not all tom pros's with whistler as a back yard and poppy givin us free access to chairlift trails.
props dude. keep on givin' er.
Great vid. Thanks for sharing the good times! It brought a much needed smile to my face. I wish everybody else would lighten up like that.
Holy shit, first, u r pretty ugly and u don't have any skills, u can't control ur bike as I can see. Give up!!!!
Even ur bails suck.
i have 3 choices for you.
1. learn to ride properly
2. pls never made another video
3. JUST STOP RIDING
p.s i dont know how this made VOD, its shitty filming and all it is is the kid falling
i think he cud gt quiet good, soon, give hem sum slcak, i mean he did gt the skinnie ant the end nailed, pesideds we all have to start su8m where, and when u fall off u learn from ur mastaakes
keep riping, just try not to fall off so much lol
(he can still ride though it shows in the beginning) he would have never gotten a (VOD) for his riding." but for his heavy fork video he generated lots of attention by looking stupid" plus hes just stupid and hey why is going to stop he got VOD for it thats enough for him to keep being an idiot on his bike and film it for a chance for another popular video. But this kind of riding never going earn my respect (because its a waste of a bike)to just bail on it 24/7 THIS KIDS A JOKE
ill give u props for your persistence, but i think you need to hit the weights little man cuz it looks like u cant even lift up the front end of your bike
is it me or are most of the flamers from young teens with no riding pics?
Lighten the f*** up, its a vid of his firstseason riding. yes, he does crash an awful lot, but he was pushing his limits - everyone crashes when pushing it - with balls like that, he could go very far with a little experience
keep up the riding man, never give in

I'm pretty sure that the kid staged all of the crashes, but why would you want to do that. I'm pretty sure it is because you cant actually ride so you just pretend your crashing on perpose. just do what your bike wants you to do ride not crash or atlest try to ride.
maby if you had more weight and didn't way 100lbs you wouldn't be going nose heavy it's not called nose heavy it's called skinny fuck that can't lean back far enough and you dont need to make a movie about it
this is funny at first but it gets borin towards the middle it shudnt be v.o.d its pointless and a coplete waste of my time watchin it
is it just me or does it not look like he's just doing ti to take the piss? can nobody else see that he's blatantly throwing himself off of stuff on purpose. no matter how shit someone is they wouldnt go over the bars like that. props to the kid for fooling everyone if its the case.
dude nevermind sir stackalot, some of that northshore gave me nightmares, just looked so flexy and the gaps in the rungs/TWIGS were a little on large side, a nice quality made video though.
Some of the crashes seemed accidental while others looked like you purposely crashed. Right at the beginning. You landed and got flat and nailed your front brake to flip....Definitely shouldn't be VOD but still funny. Perfect title too:P
this is the stupidest f*cking vid ever
i understand its supposed to be a joke but still its f*cking stupid
its not funny seeing a dumbass slam on his brakes and endo over his bars on purpose.
if your gonna make a vid of crashes dont crash on purpose and do it over bigger jumps/skinnies or watever

This is how we learn. We crash and then reflect and say "Wow, I shouldn't do that again!" To become a great rider one must have at least one of every type of crash conceivable because then you have the longest list of what not to do. This kid is well on his way!
yeah except he didnt say wow i shouldnt do this again he just kept on doing the same thing... over the handlebars
i agree we dont all have the land to do this and stuff they are trying at less they stick to it i bet most you guys saying you suck are losers ...I was like that with a supercycle i did thing i learnd now im hitting 30 foot gaps still not much but i learned ...They are lucky to have bikes like that so they can progress ...:P so strew you guys that say they suck cuz that was you probably at that age or maybe worst
I didn't know people like this existed!!! I may get - props like hell but oh well, this totally deserves VoD, it's not just a load of pros doin insane stuff of huge drops, it's lads just havin fun on NS!!! Even if they don't really know how to land...... or ride for that matter!!! Keep it up boys
lol funny stuff .. i think that it is actually u trying your hardest on a track and realised your not very gds so put it as a new style 
LOL ..still get a prop through lol
LOL ..still get a prop through lol
all you poser's who hacked on this kid are fuckin' fagget's, that was 5 years ago, he can rip it up now,you weren't that good at 12 you fuckin' dicks
mate you need to get a grip and do proper riding like DH. I THINK ROAD RIDING WOULD BE GOOD FOR YOU AT THE MOUMENT
Wake up, kids.....If you paid attention in the beginning, he eluded to the fact that he is crashing on purpose. That was the idea. He cleans all of them in the end of the video. Most of the wrecks were purposely staged to film them. A little slow on the uptake are we?.....Classic!!
well you are not afraid to keep trying lol thats good keep it up and im sure one day youll get much better. at least i hope.....
You hesitate too much when you see you're in trouble you just quit a let your self go like a ragdoll lol!
i was watching this at work and all my coworkers were wondering why i was laughing so hard!! dude you got some pretty tough balls though to keep riding even though you ain't that great!
WOOOOOW u all have so much 2 say about this lad ... y do you all waste 3.24 minutes watching this crap when you could be out riding or watching better vids ... im watching it cz it mekz me feel gd sum1 is crapper than me haha but yer 420 comments is a bit ott hahaha
I've never seen so many people have such a massive sense-of-humour failure! Crashing lots doesn't mean you suck, it means you're not scared to push yourself beyond your level of ability. Which means most of you shit-talkers are probably pussies compared to the guy in the vid.
this video shows why people think riding is such a f*cking joke, like riding is never going to get good publicity if all people see on vod is a kid crashing in every clip, i get that its a joke but ya gotta think what people not in the riding community are going to think, they prob arent going to think that riding is cool at all, think about it
Do you seriously think anyone not in the biking community watches biking videos on pinkbike? Even if they did, what do you care about their opinion? Lighten up fella, enjoy a good laugh while you still remember how. Taking your passion too seriously will destroy the delight.
[Reply]
wow... ... ... that sucked, i'm way better than that and i started near the end of august and i'm a cross country rider, learn to brake before trying this, hafe of that stuff was you braking like a quire
Wow, that's marvelous fruitcake. This video represents about the first 2 weeks of this kid's whole mtn bike career. Now he'd kick your quire ass. By the way, what's a quire?
Looks like you hit your balls there a few times...wait nevermind they havent dropped yet! YOU SUCK ASS
yuo would have thought to have jus given up north shore. God he is bad! Bad jus doesn't say it surely you learn from your mistakes!?
wow i honestly think my little sister is better than you, one of these days you will not land so soft and snap your neck have fun when it happens
loooooooool ive got a few words for you 1st of all - on the drops like fat joe says "lean back" like ur about to do a litle manual or whatever... good luck kid ...
lol that's not an unique style.. everybody has that style sometimes :X aparently the olny unique thing is that you sure like to eat shit
[Reply]
I hate pods like his... One kid get a bike for birthday &^ he try to be a good rider ... omg -.- noob ;x
Lots of slag for a twelve year old.... didn't realize everyone else learned how to ride without wiping out a few hundres times...
Thats how ya learn son...keep up the good work.
the only carrer your gonna get int mtb is fork tester i mean really whts the point anyone of us could have made this film but fortunatly we didnt wtf
Holy fuck buddy, im sure a 4 year old with a bloody tricycle could ride better then you holy shit. Mabey one day you'll go face first into a tree again and realize you should try to lean to ride a bike
his brakes must automatically lock on as soon as he takes off coz his forks always drop or iff he actually lands it his front brake flips him over the bars
I dont think your forks heavy i think you need to know how to pull up.. god damn it im glad i dont have to film you id be so scared you will break your neck
haha we should take the front brake off this kids bike he pressed it and flipped so much in this video haha
i hope u break something and kno how it feels wen u actually go big and fall instead of acting like an idiot and falling
[Reply]
ummm why do you do bother to fall like that on purpose thats a really stupid idea for a movie and its not even funny. because clearly you can ride you are riding in the beginning. and I CANT BELIEVE PEOPLE THINK YOUR GOOD FOR YOUR AGE my friend Aron is 11 and also is three times the rider you are and hes a year younger than you. Now if your actually twelve you should open your goddamn eyes and stop humiliating yourself over the web. you make this whole sport look like a joke. so stop biking like a loser fagot other wise sell your bikes and find another way to look like a joke because BIKING IS AS SERIOUS AS ANY OTHER SPORT. IT AS IMPORTANT AS HOCKEY, FOOTBALL, SOCCER OR ANY OTHER SPORT. and not to many think that way because of idiots like you
i kinda agree with the guy above but just cuz he is being a tool and not pulling up doesn't meen his making us all look bad just him self and any one who says he should stop riding shame bike ridings fun and no one should shut down another fello biker. i know ill prob get - props but thats wat i think
dude, you are persistent but I mean damn....you must have internal bleeding with all those crashes---some of them looked like they really hurt!
[Reply]
may i suggest pulling up slightly harder? And perhaps working on that whole control thing. But sweet video, i've got to give you some props for not giving up
LOL - man I have never seen one person eat it so much. But good on ya for to keep going and tough through it.
get good on little shit and step it up..
right now.. you're gonna get good at bailing, that'S it.. oh yah and making videos..
[Reply]
fainely i sed it will be vod from november 21 he shows what mtb is all about !!!!! especialy when you are younge and have strong bones lol
[Reply]
wait..... its called heavy fork. did he weight the fork? b/c its either he has NO muscles or his fork weighs about 20 lbs
he has got to learn how to lift his front wheel when he goes off things. its not heavy fork, its crappy rider. pull up for fuck sakes
[Reply]
how did this get VOD like not to be an ass but you really do suck. to get VOD you should atleast know how to ride a damn bike.
do you ppl realize that he is only 12 and thats when he started? were you all that much better when you were 12?i wasnt but i know the same guy now and hes f*cking good and could probly rip you all in half.
[Reply]
[Reply]
He will either be the next SteveO or youngest flow rider.
Persistance will pay off. He will be the next kid tearing up the north shore.
