@KeithReeder: as a futur enginneer i couldn't do anything but admitting he was correct hahaha... i ll think 2 times before another comment about friction
Please someone tell me where it is that GT frames have this lock out wheelie position, it´s keeping me up at nights, and I can´t seem to find it. Must have been lying when he says he runs stock frames.
He's the only person on the planet who's center of gravity is located outside of his body. I saw him dropping the Corkscrew at Sea Otter and it blew my mind. So inspirational. Thanks Mr. Masters.
I saw him at Sea Otter as well, obviously really good at what he does....but riding through the booths and crowds on one wheel was dangerous, there were many little kids wandering around in addition to 70yr plus folks who could easily break a hip if he whacked them. One top of it he was doing it with no helmet.
Wyn you are a marketing dream machine your name is wyn and you can wheelie for ten minutes, interview people with sausage's,beer bottles,ketchup bottles ,roll on world cups and your track walks and after race analysis lol?
His helmet/chest cam from the train of riders going down A Line at Crankworx last year, them boosting and him all the while manualing at MACH CHICKEN just absolutely blew my mind.
Anyone who's ridden A Line has got to watch that clip (may have only been on the live feed) but just absurd he could do it down that run.
@goytay: Thank you. The whole time I'm watching the footage, I'm just screaming "holy s***" when he's landing the tranny's of those monsters at full speed back wheel all the way.
He's been doing weelies and manuals better than most of us his whole riding life, he'd pop outta skate park bowls and stem hump manual the whole park 3 times before running out of momentum... He's a rear wheel Jedi ninja!
No shitz! I grew up there watching motorsports and while I've ridden the infamous Corkscrew, I've never seen a wheelie down it! I know that campers skate it at night tho!! I did watch Wyn do his thing in the so expo last year - with a beer in hand - rad.
Wheelie, really get your balance point on, hold to the bike with your legs, take off one hand, then the other, and fall down. At least that's my technique

No? Ok
Wyn might be the only person in the world who I believe could wheelie on a freakin' unicycle!
Top marks!
Where is that really nice flow track?
