I hadn't seen it before, good stuff!

ViperZ 03-15-07 08:31 PM

He has an incredible sense of balance!

The west coast forest riding was crazy, but the round tube rail riding at the end was off the charts!

insane

I have a unicycle! I'm selling it though its a Torker LX. But yea Kris Holmes is insane with unicycles.

Looks a little rough on the taint.

Wow amazing.

The clip is from one of the New World Disorder movies...or maybe it was from Crank _ ?

dminor 03-15-07 10:26 PM

From NWD 5 or 6 I think. The segment that just continues to blow me away is walking his dog COASTING with his feet up on the fork crown(!!!)

I figure I'm doing well enough on a uni using the pedals; I cannot fathom how he keeps that degree of balance.

New to me and that guy is insane. The down hill stuff in between features looked like a pretty intense series of linked recoveries. I'm not knocking it at all, just saying it was freaking nutty to watch.

NWD2 (maybe 3, 2 might have been the one where they introduced him and he wass wearing no shirt) I think and ya, awesome to watch. Hes a good guy too as usual :)

You've met him? Is that filmed on the trails near you?

Kris Holm is a Canuck, so the chances of meeting him in BC or Whistler is pretty good ;)


He sure has Mad Skillz :D

Ya he is a vancouver guy. One of his flicks you see him on the top of a massive escarpment. Thats called the Chief. Its a rock climbing haven in squamish. The trails you see in the vid are all from the north shore and he has done demos here.

KiLO 03-16-07 03:34 PM

Dang! That thing is insane!!!

[bEn] 03-16-07 07:07 PM

:eek: Unbelievable. :eek: He's got to have many years on that wheel for that kind of skill.

valbowski1980 03-29-07 08:18 PM

Amazing.

I just can't imagine keeping my balance like that

lowlux 03-29-07 08:25 PM

Thats Free Ride! What The!

highrevs 03-29-07 08:45 PM

I watched it again... yep that is just nuts.

this course was handbuilt! some of the obstacles are crazy creative...

kidcharlamagne 03-29-07 11:11 PM

I think that segment is from NWD2, and there's also a feature on the disc about his descent down the second highest (or something along those lines) peak in North America. Great stuff to watch
