All I can say is wow! Went to the show last night, one of the best shows I have ever been to. It puts stuff like Crustys to shame.

I watched the Crusty's first dvd the other day. So lame! Without them we might not see the stuff we see today though :)

we went last night and it was amazing. Those guys are fuckin nuts, all of them. We got to see some awesome stuff, most importantly Pastrana did a double back flip for the first time since he debuted it at the X-Games in 2006. He said he'd never do it again but Cam Sinclair convinced him to do it last night. We also saw Aaron 'Wheelz' Fothringham do 2 double backflips in his wheel chair. He didn't quite land either because be broke his wheels each time he landed. Aussie bmx rider Andy Buckworth did a double front flip which was mental.

Pretty much the same stuff for me besides Pastrana doing the double, that would have been awesome! Andy Buckworth landed a quad tailwhip too on Friday. How did Bilko go last night?

Bilko kicked it, although he did drop it pretty bad on one jump, i can't remember what it was cos there were so many different jumps but he landed with the bike flat and he was flat next to it, pretty much face first. He got up fine though.

I didn't go, but A mate of mine did, he said he wasn't terribly impressed with it. Mainly, because it was just like another Crusty's to a certain extent. I think he expected it to be something different.

Double Front Flips are not so uncommon in the pushy world. My mate reckon it said it all when Pastrana did a 360 Backflip (toilet paper roll or whatever) on a Mountain bike and everyone was going nuts but Cam McCaul was standing slightly away sending text msg's on his phone uninterested.. that stuff is common place.. lol

either way, i wish i went

well i'll fucked if i know what would impress your mate. Maybe he wants them to do a octosault while curing cancer. They pretty much did everything that can be done on those ramps. The quad tailwhip on the bmx was pretty sweet too.

yeah I thought the same. But he said he still enjoyed it, but like I said, I think he was expecting something different.

Bugger me though, the price for this kind of stuff is pretty full on these days hey. I remember going to Crusty's years ago and it was like $40 or something. back in my day....

would definitely rather go see this over a Jackass movie. Watching stupid things done by people with talent is much better than seeing stupid things done by people with no talent.

In other news, how the fuck do these things get away with being called a "movie". surely they are just action sport doco's.
