hahaha,i'm from canada.the sunshine coast of british columbia,Canada.

and the reason i had a tear in my eye...it's what got me into riding.you probably burst into tears every time you see something like,well...i don't know!
but it brought back alot of memories from when 2 foot drops were hard,when bikes had v brakes....
damnit,nobody understands:(

I understand 100%, NSX 3 was my biking influence. I used to just go out on my chromo XC bike, i put fat tires on and stuff and would just love riding stairs, dorpin to the flats and skinnies. I want to watch that video again soon, i used to watch it all the time!

nsx 1 and 2 were my influences. so rad. we all did loading dock drops to flat like danger dan. rode the road barricades and dreamed of being north shore extremists. but then whistler came along and fucked that all up. GLC drop 3 years ago. wtf? landing on downhill is so hard. oh well just giv'r. then duallies. then $2000+ forks. then huge industry. then dirjumping. then $2000 BMXs. then the hype. and now, ppl seeking the oldschool trails again...

i've watched nsx 3 like 50 times. Unfortunately i only jumped on the freeride bandwagon just over a year ago.

I saw kranked 2 on TV when I had first gotten a mountain bike. My jaw dropped and when it was done I went outside and jumped everything I saw. That day ended up with me faceplanting off of a picnic table and a nose manual to OTB to smack the side of a parked car. Great movies, sounds like how I feel now that I can't ride. Sad, but happy.
