I didnt say it 'makes' people go faster. Nevertheless, I think it's pretty obvious that a freewheel allows you to go faster for tricks. Seriously, it's not that hard to understand. Just try thinking about it for a moment. Watch a few videos if you still don't get it. It's easier for someone to understand it, than it is for me to word an explanation.
