yeah bmx takes a ton more work to get good

mtb. where else can you bomb down a mountain with a foot of travel in the front and 8 inches of travel in the rear and not worry about crashing? speed is where it's at!!!!

Just Huck It.
 
they both have 2 wheels. and they both provide many hours of entertainment. they both rock in my book. although the mtb gets alot more play..

honestly, bmxing is better for watching

i think i am going to selll my bmx for a mtn bike..seems to be a lot more funner, and i do agree bmxing is so much harder to progress,but is fun to watch

 
yeah mtb for me just cause ive been doing it for longer. we do have a pro bmx'er from this lil town. josh heino lived like 5 min. away from my house. theyre both sick.

Mountain Biking. It's more versatile. You can go hit the skate park, the DJ's and the DH all on the same bike.

well even tho i ride street/park mtb, bmx is way ahead of us. pick up a mtb street vid like monkey styles II or match 5, then go watch a bmx wid like forward or animal and the mtb shit doest match up. But with people like josh straat or barrecloth comming to mtb from street in a few years (well not a few a lot) mtb will catch up somewhat to bmx. and then i will have to say its better than bmx because well...the bigger (wheels) the better in my opinion...26' vs 20 is like someone skiing on 180s vs 160s...but hey much respect to bmw they are the ones pushing mtb street anyways..

of course BMX tricks and shit are gonna be ahead of MTB they have been doing tricks on BMX way longer than on MTB. what do you expect.

 
^ exactly. watch JIB and you'll have a new appreciation for urban assault. trials is far more technical than the majority of bmx riding!

we are still very far behind BMX. but. i dont see bmxers doing handrails (PEGLESS!) we have a ways to go but thats what keeps it fun. by the way josh stratt is nasty, 720's out of bowls and tailwhips.

^ pedal grinding is an option. most people choose not to do it. anyway mbx bikes are designed a lot different than mtb. that makes it easier to do tricks. either way bmx/mtb is sick.

If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit.
 
i ride both, i started out with BMX but then i started MTB and i think i like MTB better.

BMX has so many awesome tricks, but nothing can beat MTB Downhill races, and I love all the MTB gear there is. I would rather be able to strut the most decked-out mountain bike rather than the most decked-out BMX bike.

that kid that did the backflip to manual thing at rye, well i have this bmx vid from last year i think and this guy is doing the same thing as him, but onl like a 4ft. quaterpipe to the deck and he rides around in the manual for a while and drops back in.

there both awsome to watch but i never put the time into either

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

my idea is for everyone to just go fucking ballistic about it and make an online petition somewhere and tell friends, family, animals, strangers, niggers, jews, etc. to sign the petition

yeah my bike was 1,600 U.S. bought it off my dad for 700.

one of my friends has a sick bike, its worth like 6,000 bikes, right now im looking for a good f/s bike in the hundreds....anyone know of any let me know........my friend also has some sick trails, bridges and everything its crazy insane

 
BMXers dont do 360s off 25 foot drops, and DARREN BERRELCLOTH DID, YAAAAAAAA

uh, public enemy, mountain bikers dont do reverse nose manuals down quater pipes, but BMXers do.

If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit.
 
MTB... yeah there's definately a bias in there but whatever. I like the diversity that MTBs offer.

If I had a stack of cash laying around right now, I'd buy myself a BMX in a heartbeat.
