I filmed this video in about 2 days(ish). The vid is just fakieflips, so it will get repetitive if you don’t appreciate it. Feel free to bash, I’m fine with critique.
Well, it’s on youtube, find the link. Please, comment.

[EDIT]Youtube killed the quality baaad. I may try and upload a Widescreen version elsewhere…
If you are riding backwards they are just called fakie flips. If you are riding backwards and do a front flip I think you have to specify the “fakie front flip” part.
“fakieflip” means a back flip riding backwards, so something like “hick fakieflip” is a backwards hick back flip.
If you flip it foward and ride backwards its a fakie crankflip.
Edd, I try to please, eh? Ha, but seriously, I like riding trials a lot too, I just find that in street you can vary your riding up more.
Glad it was only slightly repetitive haha, I did try to vary the shots around, but well. Still a lot was filmed outside my house as usual.
By the way, I fixed 8 punctures on one day of filming haha, I was so mad I was thinking of just dropping uni. Next day I fixed 3. Turned out when I was riding with Joe B, I pedal grabbed a rail hopped over it into a thorn bush, not a regular bush. So I had loads of thorns in my (very, very) worn out tyre.
I have no changed my tyres over. I really wanted to get a triple off that black (largest) stump. I was close, but not close enough to start filming it.
real nice riding - and i enjoyed your video actually - and i dont usually like very street-like videos. I have to say the trial bits made it alot better.
Cheers Mike there’s not been a single video of yours that I haven’t enjoyed watching (although I don’t always post comments). I appreciate the effort but have no basis to comment on the skill! Nice camera angles, varied locations, simple effective editing - just the right length as well. Cool.
Very nice video. I didn’t find that repetitive actually as you found lots of different ways to work the fakie flips into different types of lines. Good shooting helped keep it interesting as well. Lastly, I really dug the music, was that the RX bandits by any chance? Or am I just way off?
