Why didnt he do nothing off this jump?

newworlddisorder (Jul 23, 2011 at 12:40)

actually don't mean to be a dick or anything but its called a rock solid

thinkbike (Jul 23, 2011 at 12:50)

This trick is coined as a Holy Man... like a Christ Air but on a bike.

freeridemanic (Jul 23, 2011 at 13:03)

rock solid.

^ beggin neg props much?

Rooker (Jul 23, 2011 at 23:58)

thinkbike is right its a holy man, but there is also a FMX called the christ air which is similar to a cliffhanger

BenLovesIdaho (Jul 24, 2011 at 9:56)

@hooly-dooly Glad I could contribute!

willy94 (Jul 24, 2011 at 10:33)

just to clear this up... rock solid is where you go into a superman double seat grab, throw your hands out then grab the seat and pull your self back on a holy man is a normal superman but with an extended no hander thrown in, then grabbing your bars and finishing the trick the more you know

Rooker (Jul 24, 2011 at 23:17)

and a holy grab is when you go from superman, throw in a no hander, then grab back onto the seat (here a lot of the riders add in a switchblade but its not necessary) and then pull yourself back on

cr250rgio (Jul 23, 2011 at 1:01)

I was all confused about that too...

BenLovesIdaho (Jul 23, 2011 at 1:07)

Happened last night too.

JesseBMXs (Jul 23, 2011 at 2:59)

must take alot of skill to be able to hack PB

trekriderOWS16 (Jul 23, 2011 at 3:24)

dammit pinkbike make up your mind!

moutnbiker (Jul 23, 2011 at 3:28)

actually it doesnt. its really not that hard if you know that your doing.

Dusterr (Jul 23, 2011 at 5:16)

moutnbiker Sounds like you have tried hahaha

VTwintips (Jul 23, 2011 at 8:45)

what was the first pinkbike picture ever???

moutnbiker (Jul 23, 2011 at 8:47)

no i havent tried, but i have hacked into much more secure sites than pinkbike... i like pinkbike so i wouldn't "shit where I eat"

nouser (Jul 23, 2011 at 12:24)

You probably cant hack and what site did you "Hack"

AMAZING PICTURE BTW.

freeridemanic (Jul 23, 2011 at 13:05)

like he would say what site he hacked. and pinkbike wouldn't be hard to hack. due to the fact that the moderators profiles could be hacked.

spyk27 (Jul 23, 2011 at 13:05)

@VTwintips type in pinkbike.com/photo/1

macnicol (Jul 23, 2011 at 16:35)

I personally like mixing redbull with cough syrup, it gives me a better high before I go biking

crookedspangus (Jul 23, 2011 at 16:49)

JesseBMXs (Jul 22, 2011 at 23:39)

high flyin rock solid!!!

KrisFoster (Jul 23, 2011 at 1:00)

Did he go into a double grab afterwards? Cause a rock solid is a double grab, let go and grab back onto the seat, then go back to the bars. Super sick photo tho.

JesseBMXs (Jul 23, 2011 at 2:46)

every video game ive ever had with bmx or dirtbikes this trick is either called a "rock solid" or a "nothing", so i used rock solid because "high flyin rock solid" sounds alot better then "high flyin nothing"
apparently i dont know my tricks as much as i thought i did

dh-parkour-guy-003 (Jul 23, 2011 at 8:45)

i think it might have been a superman where he did a no hander, like a rock solid but not, wish there was a video, when i first saw the picture i thought sick rock solid, or mulisha grab

KrisFoster (Jul 23, 2011 at 10:09)

Haha yeah. That's awesome.

nouser (Jul 23, 2011 at 3:57)
