I remember when I first heard of stunting it was all fur covered bikes and Star Boyz.

Dark times indeed, I think this is what cemented a lot of the hate that stunters get.

Ya but come on you mean there isn't any part of the stunna "culture" that is about young American males and supersport motorcycles, energy drinks, baseball caps at dumb angles, etc...?

There is part of every sub-culture that involves that in America LOL It's not inherent to the sport, it's just society currently.

HNasty posted:

Wouldn't there be just different kinds of stunts if they used Sumos or Trials bikes ?

Perhaps, but this is what people have developed thus far. Feel free to start dicking around on a sumo and pioneering a new sub-culture of motorcycling.

I wouldn't call it dark times, it's part of how what we have now developed, and it wouldn't be the same without it.

StarBoyz were a huge inspiration back in the day, as were Wink, Driving To Endanger, 1096, the Wheelie Boyz, etc.

It takes extreme personalities like that to do what they did. Their actions helped spark an industry and inspire communication, all of which slowly leads to enabling less extreme personalities to find something to attach to and take an interest as well.

I think it's been 9 years for me now, and the average personality that becomes interested in stunting nowadays is NOTHING like what it was when I first got started.

I would but I can't find my DC Shoes, Volcom hoody and Monster Energy hat. I'm not busting your balls mang, hey I thought stunting was cool when I was younger. Even those stupid FTP videos (I still might have the VHS somewhere), it was cool with me. Felt sort of like someone took a bunch of skate kids and gave them bikes, same sort of punk/antisocial ethos it had back then. I remember reading about how the FL state police had to station cop cars outside of the Star Boyz house or something like that to make sure none of them could get out on their bikes. I'm rambling, anyway the videos are cool and stuff to watch, I really like the urban trials videos I've seen. Like this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1o6p3FC3Wg

Those dudes are awesome as gently caress and it gives the inner city youth of the Baltimore area something positive to devote their time to, like an after school football program, but with illegal motorcycles and a blatant disregard for authority and the most basic of safety precautions.

I think he may have sucked in some of the seat upholstery there, gently caress.

Closest call I've had was coming through a tight, blind s-bend to find someone in a jacked-up mini van in my lane over-taking a cyclist :psyduck:

Presented with a confrontation with a dangerous beast, flight response kicked in and before I knew it Mr. Lizard brain had picked the nearest exit (the narrow thread of pavement (sidewalk)) and I managed to not die with a couple of inches to spare.

There's nothing quite like the :catdrugs: adrenalin hit of a close call like that. Angry, laughing, scared and elated all at the same time.
