FG = The New Skateboarding (this time it's true)

Can I point out that (as a MTB'er + been through using mtb jump bikes etc) that mountain bike 'freestyle' is shit compared to bmx. Watch the best mtb dirt jump video, then watch a bmx video piss all over it. MTB frame and wheel sizes, even 24'' are just completely inferior to a bmx to do tricks on. Just as mountain bikes should stick to cross country, downhill and bullshit industry coined 'freeride' + 'all mountain' , track/fixed gear bikes should stick to what there for.

Like barspins - buy a bmx

I think with todays big bar trends, barspins are not pssible for most.

Its all about lazy whips.

Fashion, trends, fads its everywhere.

I think FGF is rather similar to the flatland/freestyle skateboarding.

The only person left doing it is rodney mullen, and as amazing as it is to look at it perfected, its too specific, and awkward to learn that no - ones properly into it.

If you add to it the fact that the ultimate FGF bike is a "artistic bicycle/kunst fahrrad" like the germans ride,

FGF starts to look seriously shit.

The kids who made the video got it right,

RIde fast, have fun.

Spin your bike/bars , whatever when your waiting around a car park to kill time.

And to those who dont already know,

BMX's were designed for racing,

todays bmx expecially are as close to a race setup as possible.

its only a side-coincedence that the nimbleness of them lends well to tricks.
