Local Exposure

Tonight I went to see the Local Exposure tour https://www.localexposuretour.com at the local United Skatepark. It was pretty sweet. There were some dudes there throwing some BIG stuff. I saw a guy tailwhip a backflip over the sub box, another dude barspin a fufanu on an extension box. I saw a truckdriver 360 about 10 feet up, a double tailwhip 360 and more. Another guy manualled into a tailwhip into manual that was pretty sweet.

Anyway, I was stoked to see some good riding around here. That park is usually about 90% boards, so it was a nice to see some BMX tonight. Probably not a big deal for most of you, but for an old guy like me, it's fun to watch dudes bust out.

just for the note, a truckdriver is a 360 barspin, so you dont have to put 360

Isn't is still a truckdriver if it's a 720? And the point was the guy did one about 10 feet above the box.

I swear, most of you guys have absolutely nothing constructive to add, ever.

Kids are just cranky because we can drop a grand on a bike like it's nothing at all. And they have to mow lawns and wash cars like we did way back when.

A 360/540 barspin is a truckdriver, a 720 barspin is a drunkdriver, and a 360/540-cab barspin is a cabdriver.
