And to think, no peeling blue tape, awesome.

That dude is on a different planet.

I enjoy all sports and many athletes, but this kid is different, Nolan Ryan, John Elway, Michael Jordan and Tyson zippered up in one suit.

Stunning! Had not seen that one yet; thanks.

MacAskill, Leech, Perrizio, Holm . . . all beyond my comprehension.

wow, the front flip at the end was Knar.. with a K

meh, i guess that guy is ok, if you are into that sort of thing. i didn't see him do any barspins, so he can't be that good.


(i probably don't need to say this, but just in case you can't smell the sarcasm....i'm totally joking. now that i've seen him, i know i clearly do not know how to ride a bike. brix have been 5hat watching this)

never heard of them, do they ride BMX or something?

Gotta love those rock walk drop-ins. Reminds me of '80s BMX street riding.

This guy is more sure on his bike than I am on my feet. Awesome.

yeah i was thinking that in my head! you dont want that guy to chase you when he is on his bike! there is no getting away! he would hop onto a roof and spiderman stalk you!

This guy is my hero, for real. When mountain views & sunsets won't do it for me, I look to Danny MacAskill to remind me that there's beauty in the world. He even has 'skill' in his name. How cool is that? This guy is a freakin' ninja on his bike. He'd have Bruce Lee scratching his head going "where the f.." & the BAM, he's right there behind him on his bike..with ninja stars.

i do like what you have to say and all, but i really think he is more of a throwing knife kinda guy..

Couldn't agree more. Just didn't take the time to come up with an appropriate weapon.

It's all in the bike. I could do all of that if I had that bike.

Wow! He's almost as good as Hans Rey!

I agree 100%!!!!!

I thought only hacks did drops to flat?

You spend too much time in the back country....

Lucky you.

This guy is amazing. I wish I had just half of his ability. Lance Armstrong even tweeted this a few days ago.

after watching that video i went to youtube. I watched about 900 videos of the redbull sponserd stuff. I actually drove to the gas station just to get a red bull! then i drove back to work and watched more videos while drinking my red bull.

Two things that should not make it through the MTB vB forum filter...anything related to Lance Armstrong or Twitter.

^^ You read my thoughts.

I agree, too. Let's keep the conversation confined to who has the best weed and tearin' up the gnar, bro's.

Well I know I'm not tearin' up the gnar quite like the pros here, but I've got some Headband & Ice Cream strands to celebrate my promotion. So there's something.

I must be getting old.....what does this mean?

Well first off, I meant to say "strains", not "strands". Typo on my part. But these are both strains of a product many members of this forum seem to enjoy. Headband gives one the feeling of literally wearing a headband. Quite a trip. Ice cream got its name for not only being covered in trichomes (giving it a white appearance), but more so because it tastes like vanilla ice cream. Very pleasant after a good day on the trails.

^^ You should feel very fortunate that Pete Fagerlin is not a regular on this forum any more. Last kid who made brags about weed (in that case it was selling it) found his real name, his town and his school revealed here, plus an invitation to share all the information about the youngster's illicit activities with the school's headmaster.

I never said anything about weed. I was referring to a plant soft enough to wear as a headband, that I nicknamed 'Headband' (I believe the common name is 'Lamb's Ear'), & a vanilla plant that reminds me so dearly of ice cream. So I just call it 'Ice Cream' for fun. Does no one else turn to botany after a long day on the trails? I thought this was quite common..

And anyway, I have nothing to prove. My only asset is my job, & I've proven myself to be an outstanding, law-abiding citizen twice in the last 3 months, one of which was just last Monday. I may enjoy life, but I'm not stupid.

It means you need to find a better dealer...one with the good ish.



I'm not stupid.

That kid that Pete netcopped was, though. In that case I suspect that it wasn't really about the weed.

ish? Ouch. Oh well, it's some of the best Georgia has to offer. Suits me just fine. :)

I try not to mention my personal information on a forum where I'm quite guilty of what is now considered 'cyber-bullying'. May even have to change my location just to be on the safe side. It's easy to forget that the internet can be dangerous in more ways than one.

+1

were is that thread?? i HAVE to read it!Looked for it earlier but can't find it. VBulletin's new search engine sucks mightily. That, and some of Pete's old usernames have been 'nonpersoned' - - so the search couldn't pick up on it if it wanted to. It was a classic though.

Did Pete succeed in ruining this kid's life?

Doubtful, as I don't think that was the goal. You kinda hadda be there.

I remember that one. It will live on in our memories.

I think Pete even found a screen cam pic capture and posted that. I think he even had the school name and the principal's name.

If I remember correctly, the kid wanted to use his savings to do a trafficking deal with a buddy to make a quick profit.

Pete seems like a pretty funny guy, did he get banned or just stop coming around?

I'm stupid....It's not bad once you embrace it.

Sounds like an intelligent guy.
