All I can say is  :jaw:  :jaw:  :jaw:  :jaw:  :jaw:  :jaw:

I have never seen anybody with such a fine sense of balance. I bet his mother had a hard time pushing out the bike when he was born because it sure looks like it's part of him.

That is very, very cool!!  :bugeye:


I know 2 lads in Manchester who have those bikes and have skills similar but certainly not as accute as this.

I couldn't believe the way they jump 4ft up and land ontop of a 3" bollard and hold the wheely position for ages!!!


Them bikes ain't cheap either!


Crazy what you can find out there eh?!



Nice find  :thumbup:

Yep, if you read the garb at the side (right top of screen) on the actual video page... Click the writing (video's title) under the video and it'll take you to the video page where you can read all the comments left by users etc but also read the description by the author.

Edinburgh it was Stew.... 5,327,536 views in just under a month.... Now that's stunning!!  :bugeye:  Well deserved though!

WOW

Thats awesome.. amazing... and stunningly skilled.

We used to do a lot of trick riding when I was in Jr High. We had a 1/4 pipe in my neighbors driveway. it had 6 feet of vertical... and we rode skateboards mostly.. but bikes as well.

To do what that guy does.. and makes look easy.. is something nobody I ever knew achieved... that Trials style of balance.. simply amazing. To go vertical and simply stop on the rear wheel..
