gotta love a fast cable connection... I let my two boys, pert near 8 and 12 watch and was a little concerned at first but they were in awe...... How in the hell does that guy wheelie like that********************???
And those drops.. seems to me that it's still a suspension issue with the landings.. too many G relative to time.
At any rate, good show

Hmm, whatever happened to Bobby Root? He rides manuals just as easily as if he were on two wheels.
As for Bender, i reckon it might be his dropping style that is preventing him from landing the jaw drop- back wheel way too earlier than the front.

Okay, #1: That's insane!
#2: Thanks, Mael and PWRD.
#3: I will never have 56k again. Me loves my cable too much.

Pretty cool videos. I wonder how fast those cars were going for that guy to pass them riding a wheelie?
I got the videos to 7 MB and 9 MB without much quality loss, but I don't really feel like uploading them...

Oh he holds the world record for a manual. I know he can go upwards of 60miles and hour. This is nwdII so it doesn't have his world record attempt
