Flips are mad!!!! But whats next???

[KAOTIK!]

Well, the whole FMX world has gone flip crazy since a few people have proved that it is possible to loop a moto-x bike. Where does it go from here though?? Im guessing people will start by throwing limbs off mid-loop just the same as the BMX boys did. My question is, how long until somebody pulls a 360 on a moto-x bike??? Weve all seen how flat some riders can lay thier bikes doing phatt table tops. Now my question is this. If a rider was to launch off a ramp, lay it flat and keep it gassed, then wouldnt the flat out spinning back wheel help to turn the bike in the air??? Theoretically it should work. On a pushy, it is easy as all you do is use your body wieght to bring the bike around. Obviously the Moto-x bike is a hell of a lot heavier, so using the inertia of the spinning rear wheel while laid relatively flat should make it all happen.
What do you reckon???:wtf:

BARREL ROLLS !! I can see these happen and many other tricks as this is still a new sport (few years old) and the fastest growing sport to date.

We will not see the young gard of FMX show there skills Untill we have some FMX schools in OZ LIKE THAY HAVE IN USA
only then I think we will see a huge change in OZ FMX RIDERS.

Guys like JP are just Born to ride any clinics he runs I would go to and learn like I did many many years ago, our mentors ( ANTHONY GUNTER,STEVE GALL,JEFF LEISK,GLEN BELL... Motocross.

Thay all ran riden clinics and it helped many many MX riders improve so look out keep tabs on this sport FMX as its going to amaze lots of pep: here in australia ( like it all ready is ) :jive:

Dont for get it takes time for SKILL to be passed down look now we only just got Reedy blasting in MX,SX In USA.

Keep Close eye on this site for FMX School Dates Run By a PRO FMX-er more Info Soon.. :cheers:

PS what trick would U like to See PROS DO ? :)

[KAOTIK!]

Replace all the clutch, throttle etc etc with foot controls and let the barspin madness begin. Mind you, you would need four feet. Haha

[^kicker^]

more b/flip variations, 360's will be pretty soon, double b/flip, body varials, backlip 360's(not 4 a while), the "wyatt riot".........

or you could just have a gyro type set ut if ya gunna go that far, but who wants to see bar spins anyway, they'd be a bit pussy on a moto with all the time you have in the air .... i reckon bring on some body varials...

Welcome aboard shirefmx, hope you like the site and yup, I agree, bar spins on a moto would be rather pussy as you put it.. ;) Jono's got his eye on 360's though... Wont be long I don't think, checkout his quote from planet X:

“All week I’ve been thinking about doing a back flip at Planet X Games and it was a beautiful one,” said Porter. "In terms of tricks the 360 is next.”

[shirefmx]

yeah thats where metz wants to go next too (the 360), but i reckon the body varial is close, pastrana and cowboy were kinda gettin close in pastranas vid ... its going crazy!!!!

[Good Karma]

Quiet frankly i would hate to see bars spins, it would be too much like bmx, Metz has started doing grinds aswell, if you like that stuff get a bmx is what i think. 360's are definately next on the agenda and no doubt Metz will be the first to nail it.

[globe_2001]

nah i reckon some unknown aussie dude will be first to do it or jp will be i cant see metz being the first one to do it but either jp or some unknown. where do i get pastranas video from i cant wait to see it how much does it cost plz tell me
