I use mine to get places as well, but there's nothing wrong with having some fun while doing it. 
That's some sweet sh*t right there.

I like watching people do things like this on fixies because for some reason, it always looks so elegant. I would rather see someone bust a move on a track bike that a BMX bike any day.

+1; it looks like the bikes actually fit them.

Uhm... duh?
I mean, not to sound like an ass, but yeah. I mean, I used to do that alla time when I was racing BMX back in the day. The novelty of it is that it is, in fact, done on a fixie.

At least the deep-V's on those bikes are more about function than simply form, so one can atleast admire that.

Where does mediocrity figure into this? They are doing things above and beyond what people normally do with fixed-gear bikes. That's not mediocre.

Which is why this will never be the "new skateboarding" - frankly it sucks in comparison to BMX. You and I may find it entertaining but I just don't think it's marketable.

Does it need to be marketable? Is that what it's going for? To me it seems like a bunch of guys having a bunch of fun on their fixed-gear bikes.

Tom LaMarche is a good rider, he does some crazy sh*t on a fixed gear bike. I will completely concede that much. But coming from a freeride and DH racing background, his "tricks are for kids."
Here's is Aaron Chase, who is undoubtedly a better rider.
