you guys are hilarious lol. The bike show was great this year, I volunteered all weekend long for the BMX Course, including helping bring it from storage in lamport stadium, setting it up, then taking it all down after and bringing it to it's summer location where it will be setup at wallace emerson community centre (free to ride) at dufferin and dupont in toronto. Anyone who watched the pro finals for bmx knows how f*cking crazy the show was.

I saw it all live sitting on top of the 10 foot deck =p

And I got to ride the course for a total of 5-6 hours throughout the weekend, sicckk.

No one 3'd it to fakie man =p Someone 540'd it though, and this kid zane bradley who came 2nd in am and is only 14, tucked that gap aswell, actually he was the first person to hit it in qualifiers, and then after he almost landed a 540 over it. Kids crazy at 14, he also 3 tucked over the spine like 4 feet high. Im f*cking jealous haha Frown

Cheers, it's not my quote it was some other guy on here, can't remember who.

Yeah I live in London but I have relatives in Toronto and last March I was staying with them and we went to the show (the cousin my age is mad on bikes too craig1215)

The BMX display at the London bike show was shit, there was like one jump box and the biggest trick all day apart from tucks was a truckdriver...

I can't remember who but someone hit it opposite so it was a 10 foot quarter to a 5 foot quarter that was like 3 feet back which is so f*cked up, and they tucked it, almost 540'd it, and tail whipped it.
