Question What's your favorite stunt to watch?

Here is a take-off on Brock's post "12's good or bad for the sport" since there were a lot of good views in there. Right now 12's are HOT in this sport, however what is your favorite thing to see in "shows"? Riders may be a little bit biased, so I am hoping to get a few opinions from the people sitting in the stands. But, lets hear what is your favorite and why.....

I love the circles and slow 12s... I mean, all of the above require skill... but there's just something about a 5 mph wheelie. I can only do them on MotoGP

I have to go with long stoppies. Just watching people like Joe Brown make it look so effortless and smooth is just real impressive to me.

I think my favorite thing is to watch Redline Jimmy running after his bike as it rolls away riderless.

And why? Cause I think it is FUNNY!

I love it all, but lately watching these circles is sick. Skill levels are improving with everyone and the tricks are getting nasty. I can't wait to see what is in everyone's bag in Daytona. This year is going to be great!!!

Gewitterkind, does your keyboard have the degree symbol on it? If not, how did you get it in a post?

Sorry about going off topic Jimmy, i'll get back on it now. I'm going to post this question on some non-stunter boards. It would be interesting to get opinions from the people standing on the side of the road (next to their pretty bikes).

You will not get an accurate poll here since StuntLife is the home of stunters. If you want to know what the majority of people out there want to see you ned to post this poll on MainStreamLife.com ya knwo what I mean?

mainstreamlife.com <-- shuggs you starting a second site??

anyway i like watching the combo's that stay within a resonable speed. once the tire is only a foot off the ground it kinda loses it's appeal. an exp. in gynxxx's biketoberfest vid chauncy does a apehanger > standup > tankwheelie> healclicker> flamingo and doesn't look like he exceeds 50 the whole time. thats what impressed me
