I think Dion posted this a few days ago...
Wouldn't call it a fata though, because I think it was mixed in the middle of a thread.

The potential for horrific groinal injury in that video is quite high.

That guy has crazy skills. The back flip off the tree and the jump at the 4:45 mark was insane. Wonder if you would get a stunting ticket doing that kind of stuff in Calgary? LOL

Anyone know the name of the song?

Hey me and him have the same helmet!

That is where the similarities both begin and end.

On a related note, after 38 years of cycling, I finally know how to bunnyhop onto a curb. Well, sometimes. And only where there's a cutout for a driveway.

What to comment on first? The flare off the tree, the hop across 3 bars on his back tire or the 2 freestanding tail-whips (one across a gap). Incredible!

This is the latest from the gang at Inspired - this time they are in Barcelona.

Another amazing display of riding from Ali Clarkson, Sean Watson, Danny MacAskill and Duncan Shaw.



5 year bump - booyah.

I read this comment before I watched the video and it's absolutely true. I suspect there is a very painful blooper clip on the cutting room floor from these stunts.
