Return of the freaking flamingo

https://video.google.com/videoplay?do...65536694789232

Since the flamingo pictures that mtnbiker66 posted got no respect...I have decided to unleash the amazing video footage. Notice the slick flip flops being worn by our super hero as he drops off a cliff sized flower bed. Remember, don't try this in your local park...the flamingo is a professional super hero.

Yea, but dude, I had to dodge snakes, gang members (the park is in the hood), and little kids that don't like big freaky people who dress up like the tooth fairy....plus, did I mention I have on pink flip flops?

Okay, why did I think that was a girl bunny outfit?

Anyway, pink or not.....you can come and be MY hero. I guess. Maybe. But wait. Are you into outties? I mean outtings? Oh never mind. Forget it.

By the way....are those clipless?

You are just plain cute. Those are not clipless....just plain old platforms with the girliest flip flops you have ever seen.

My super power is simple....I slow down riders who can actually ride. Put me in front of you and your down hill riding abilities drasticly reduce to a slow putter. You become a shell of the rider you once were. I am flamingo man.....don't make me unleash my powers on you.

Look at it this way, when they leave our school they can at least bunny hop and change a flat tire. More than you can say for some school .

Just remember, don't try anything like that until you have been riding for like, maybe a week or two. Those kind of crazy drops are not for everyone. I would not even consider doing that kind of drop unless you are wearing actual real shoes. Leave the flip flops to the pro's like the Flying Flamingo....and of course my trusty side kick Mntbiker66. I could never fight crime without his loyal devotion. I must go and lay the smack down on more crime. Later.
