someone imbed please.

post some sick motorcross vids if you have any. or discuss this one
 
youtube won't let you embed it. but it looks to me like motocross is really stepping it up. between flairs in quarter pipes and frontflips i'd say they're pushing some boundries
 
i saw youtube woulden't let me embed, but i didin't know if any one had any tricks or something haha. yeah crazy stuff
 
looks pretty refined. It seams like if they could make the bikes lighter with different materials a lot more would be possible. But I have never really ridden dirt bikes so I have no idea what its like.
 
well hes hitting the back break to cut is engine, so i dont know how that would work out on dirt. but they'll get it sooner or later
 
Anyone seen this done on a DJ bike? Seems to me ive seen it a NWD, maybe 6 or 7. Really sick tho, looks really sketchy how hard he has to huck
 
That is as fuckin' redbull as it gets. That's just insanity. I kinda knew it was a matter of time once the BMXers started throwin' them though. Crazy.
 
jim's a pro mtb that hangs with these guys all the time trying this for a while, so its not really a surprise he's figuring it out first. oh and street bike tommy will be the first to do it to dirt at x-games. just you watch!
 
noooo back break. dont ask why, but if you hit the back break hard enough you're bike will shut off
 
hes on a 85, maybe 100cc bike. I have a 125 and these guys usually run with 250s or 450s. Low cc bikes are a lot lighter and easier to flip with. The guy that will flip during the x-games will be a crazy fucker because its almost impossible with heavy mxs.
 
well if you're hating on them riding a 100, i would like to see you do it on a 50. just cuz hes riding a 100, its still fucking nuts
 
im not hating on them at all its incredible theyre doing this but flipping on a 100 and a 250 is totally something else. its a mater of physics, involving huge skills. its almost a 100lbs difference between both mxs, try flipping something that weights 230-250lbs. these guys are crazy and i hope theyll flip the next xgames
 
i always thought it wqas possible, or tha someone would try it.. but then i also never really thought it would happen.. its yet it be stuck on dirt though
 
no- you pull in the clutch and hit the brake. the engine "dying" is him clutching it-it just brings the bike down to idle. and if the bike were to "die" its kick its self over on the landing-like a pop start
 
actually... hes hitting the rear brake... hitting the rear brake in the air makes your bike dip foward (think about it: the wheel is spinning at like 10,000 rpm when you hit the ramp... as soon as you leave, you nail the brake and make that wheel stop, wheres the momentum going? up [rear wheel]) and no the bike doesnt die.. as long as you pull the clutch in at the same time, your engine speed will stay up even though the wheel isnt working... and yes, it looks like hes on a 100 and just barely getting it around into foam... it will be another year before we see one on dirt with a 125..
 
im to lazy, but travis pastrana already has em down with a 125 into foam... so im sure we'll be seeing it at X.. hopefully
 
yea... body varials are getting sicker and sicker...

i came across this... looks like travis when he's like 15... and the list is already huge..

 
jea but 75-100 pounds and that rotation gets a whole lot more layed out and tougher. He still has a long way to go before he pulls it off in a comp. Sick stuff tho.
 
Thats a huge claim with no edit to back it up, I NEED TO SEE THIS EDIT! not only to see if your claim is full of shit or not, but that would be fucking amazing...cork 7 on mx? what the fuck! that's nuts!
 
jim dechamp was doing those on mountain bikes a while back, and theres tons of mountain bikers that can do them
