Bender is the shit he has pushed the sport so dam far we would not be where we are if he was not hear..... all you fags that think he is a hack most likely suck big ass
I don't remember what video it was in but he pulled a backflip. It was in the bonus features that showed him working it until he hit it. Tell me, is flipping the bike considered style? People can be so judgemental some times, why is that necessary?
yes but i havent seen ne one huck the jaw drop with an 888, acctually i havent seen ne one BUT bender huck the jaw drop.that proves he has balls of steel.
Bender is a legend no matter what you all say.... he's doing the impossible..... yes he might not land any of his stunt, but at least he did something to push others to go big.
www.pinkbike.com/photo/128242 Rampage that he ditched and fell really high, he was aboard a banshee scream, they also had a signature scream frame for him (it was a candy like red with his signature on the top tube near the seat tube). also I cant remember what movie it was on (it was a bonus) shows him attempting and stomping a backflip on a scream. He had the canfield custom ordered, but when Banshee heard they let him go for violating contract terms
Dang... just because he ordered a bike from a different company they dropped him. From the looks of it the photo above has got to be recent (all I knew was that wasn't a banshee or karpiel), but not THAT recent I guess because marz. doesn't make the 300mm super monster anymore.
I can't seem to find anything recent on him (I don't care if it's anything bigger that what he used to do) but all I find of him is on NWD1 and a massive reck on a red bull run where he flat out lands on his tailbone from a very scary distance (begins leaning too far back, then ditches in mid air).
Stuhaight, check out Youtube, he has a couple episodes of bender. It's by idiomlabs. From 2004. And then decline had an article of him and randy spangler in utah
