i hate you. the closest ive come to knowing anyone like that was last year when Will Stroud's wife was one of my teachers and said Edwin was her "homeboy". Leigh Ramsdale comes to town every once in a while

I like Edwin, Wade, Martinez, Wessel, Osato. and Seth Kimbrough too.
I ride street with a little dirt here and there. Ive only ridden park 3-4 times

I ride park mostly, with a little street. My favorite riders are;
For street-
Van Homan, Cory Martinez
For park-
Scotty Cranmer
Danny Hickerson
For dirt-
Ryan Guetler
Chris Doyle

It's hard for me to choose 1 rider, but if I had to i'd choose, either Scotty Cranmer or Danny Hickerson.

There is a tailwhip in flatland. It's like a whiplash except your not moving.

I ride mostly flatland and some street. Even though I don't ride park, my favorite rider is Cranmer. All his backflip variations are badass.

Lets see, since I race, I will have to go with Donny Robinson. My oldest son met him last year at a National and he was really cool, not smug at all and told my son good luck with his racing.

Meh, when I'm on my 20" its park. I ont follow bmx riders close enough to have a favorite rider, Rick Thorne is okay.

When I'm on my mountian bike I do freeride (although I tend to avoid the djing part of it) and DH Riding. My favorite riders are, in order:
Cedric Gracia
Steve Romaniuk (hometown hero)
Grant Allen (cause he's a damned gong show when he rides)

I can only hope that you're joking. Not only is the guy a tool, but he's been doing the same vert run since 1994.
