  6. dude, that wheel is awesome!!!
    so's the hop!
    why do you call them bc mounts like 3 times, we already know it's a bc,
    lol
    anyways, nice work

    what kinda hub did you put in the 24" wheel, did you make it? (as in
    build the wheel, not fabricate the hub)

    nice, i reccomend it to anyone building a wheel, no i didnt build it
    myself, someone i know did, he builds retartedly strong and straight

  8. you seem like you know what you're at with a bc wheel.

    I have a pretty crappy but not bad one I made - but I can't ride it at
    all! the tire rubs my leg, I can't stay up on it either!

    You and spencer make this look easy. How long did it take to learn to
    ride one of these things? are there any tricks I could use for learning?
    Will I have to just live with the stupid tire rubbing my leg?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Also, pictures of any time halfway through a zany trick always come out
    cool. I really love this one I got yesterday of myself doing a kickup
    mount, while we're posting cool looking uni pictures.

  9. I learned it in aobut 20min. Spencer Rides his with constant pressure
    form his leg on the tire, i make fun of him for this because you hear
    this *zzzzzzzzzz.......* as he goes buy and he also hand ride knobby
    tires because it grabs him and throw him off, but yes you can ride it
    like that if you have a slic tire.

  13. Those guys are from the "safety equipment is for people that hurt
    themselves" school. In other words, they're waiting until they hurt
    themselves a few times to make sure it can happen to the, not just all
    of us. 🙂

    Awesome pictures! Try to post them a little smaller though; they took a
    long time to load.

    Yeah, I didn't start wearing gloves, until I turned my right hand into
    hamburger, twice, and now i just wear a glove on my right hand ^^ I
    don't see any reason to put one on my left if I don't fall on it.

  16. That first one, with your left foot on the right platform, can you ride
    into and out of that? or was it just a spiffy looking stillstand sort
    of thing?
