BMXers have started wearing tracksuits now too. Obviously a tracksuit n’ BMX is a pretty universal look, but it’s weird seeing pros changing up their outfits now. And I love a tracksuit, usually.

And also they do all this 180 shit now, and no complies. All this fiddly shit. C’mon lads, jump off roofs again.

Haha, I’m loving the BMX at the moment. Makes a nice change from skating, especially when I can’t MTB much. No 180s for me, though I am trying to learn no complys. Not even got pegs on mine, just trying to get more flowy on little jumps and gaps.

Yeah I’ve really slacked off with upper body since the climbing wall closed. Which was three months ago, so no wonder I’m a noodle.

On a bike?

How does that work? I assume you put a foot down and jump, but would like to see one.

I’m afraid that’s it. Often into a fakie manual, revert to nose manual, another 180, etc etc.

I did try Google, but not for long.

What he said. Hard to make it look good, I’ve only seen a few that don’t look awkward. Some of the slopestyle riders do it quite well.

Then again it often looks stinking on a skateboard too.

We established that Biebel is a cunt and Stevie Williams got some new jeans. That’s about it.

I always thought the foot down and jump was a boneless?

Yeah you’re right, definitely on a skateboard.

on a bike I’d call it a fastplant.

Anyway, they have freecoasters now, why isn’t anyone doing fakie to fakie airs (half-cab) yet?

Murder hornet. It’s seen your face now, there is no hope for you.

Not when I do it. More of a minceplant.

I don’t understand freecoasters. Witchcraft it is.

edit just googled it. It’s a clutch. Less witchy than I’d hoped, really.

Where do you live ? Climbing outdoors is so much better anyroad if there’s a crag close by? Check on the UKC website or somert.

Maybe you live in london or somert in which case , noodle power.

'Ull. We’re handily located in easy driving distance of the Peak, the Moors and the Dales, but they’re all as good as a million miles away when the most free time you have in one go is a couple of hours. Friday night bouldering used to fit in nicely!

Not climbed outside in ages tbf, but you’re right, it is much better.

Teen Vogue just published “welcome to marx!”

“You may have come across communist memes on social media…”

Has anyone ever done a fs bigspin to fs noseblunt slide on a ledge?
