    it is for basic control, if you have ever ridden a BC you know that
    sometimes you HAVE to slow down a little bit 🙂

    edit: and if used for trials stuff probably hopping as well

  5. I have the basic plates done.. now I need to sand them down and paint
    them...

    I made them 4" wide and 10" long.

    Don't laugh at my welds.. I'm going to grind them down and make them
    much nicer.

  6. You cant hop with the mbc for three reasons:

    1) There is nothing to grip to for hopping.

    2) its so heavy even if it did have something to grip onto with your
    feet, you couldnt.

    3) its for trail riding, not urban, so no hopping there anyway.

  7. Evan, what do you think of my plates?

    Don't make fun of my welds please 🙁

    I've seen the videos of you riding, you're insanely good.

    That defeats the purpose!

    Gary, did you actually save up and buy a wheel? You still owe dad
    money for that nice computer. 😉 I'm riding that when I come down
    this weekend...

  9. The first plates were about an inch too high, the second set should be
    about right.

    Wait, so is squirrel Gary? Squirrel's title says "Spudman's Dad" but he
    can't owe himself money. I am confused.

    Edit. OR is GUI Gary?
