It's normal to get all caught up in the "stuntlife" and not stop to think OUTSIDE the motor.
As our sport progresses people are looking to push our list of tricks and mod our bikes to do, well...the impossible. I'm always happy when something motorless shows up in my social media stream and inspires me. Today I watched the "The Webbie Show" and was pretty impressed by not only Mark Webby's skills on a BMX bike, but mostly his flow.
There has been a big push at major stunt competitions like the XDL Championship for FLOW. Sure, judges want crazy tricks in all four catagories (wheelies, endo's, burn/drit and acrobatics) but they also want the sweet nature of FREESTYLE to bleed through and make the whole run looks seamless. If you have been working on your flow, check the Webbie Show and see if it gives you any ideas.
And if you're working less on your flow and more on the impossible "sickest trick" type riding...check the "RED PANDA" riding a tall unicycle kick a pile of bowls from her foot to her head. Not that we are suggesting you mix dishware with your motorcycle stunts...but it'll get your imagination going no doubt.
Here are some more inspiring pics - Happy Stunting!
