not the usual street pics, but most recent riding ones, like the first one. after nearly a decade of riding, i feel like the tabes aren't heinous.

le tabe. more importantly, le guns.


le bars off 4.5 foot 1/4. if you enter a jam and can't whip etc, just huck. all i did was tabes, turndowns, grizzes and bars. fuggit.

All of which are infinitely cooler than endless tailwhips anyway.

Is that an under-rotated manual 180? I hate that moment.

Been getting turndowns after roughly 15 years of failure.  I did two this day with straight legs, but this one isn't too bad.  Straight legs are my goal though.

With jumps and scenery like that I think we can let the legs slide this time.

Ha, that was kind of my motivation....  That jump was pretty lofty which I found helped out a little bit.  Much like the tabe, it seems like turndowns are always a trick that you could do better and better.  Until your name changes to Chris Doyle.  Then, you have them down.

where is that picture taken? very pretty.
I too, suck at turndowns. I've done them, but I can't do them. :) I would like to learn though.

I think Colorado might be the greatest state in the US for BMX, 6 months out of the year.

We went for a quick road trip over the 3 day weekend up to CO from Austin.  Left after work on Thursday night and drove straight to Trinidad and rode that park, completely alone.  Then went up to Colorado Springs to ride that epic epic park till dark.  Once we were done in Co Springs we drove north to Boulder.  We "urban camped" at the park and were sessioning the hip before the sun was even fully up.  Left that park and went to the Valmont Bike Park (public dirt jumps) and rode them until dark.  Then drove to the new Arvada park (HOLY SHIT DUDE).  We camped out at that park until the cops kicked us out at like 2:30 AM.  Finished up our nights sleep at the local Walmart parking lot and was back sessioning the snake run as the sun came up.  Rode Arvada all day and then headed into the mountains towards Frisco.  Sessioned the shit out of that place, hit up some dope ass camping sight about 10-11,000' up in some mountains and then B lined it back to Austin in the morning.  

To say that we rode some amazing spots in our 3 days is the biggest understatment I could make.  Colorado is flat out amazing.  We didn't even make

Spot is Frisco Adventure Park.  There is even a skatepark there.  The downhill line was so good.  30' table tops at full speed down a mountain.  Yes please.
