That's why we ride for fun, thrill, and just to get out and do something. These guys whom think that they will do this sport mainstream or make a living at it are sadly mistaken.
Sure sell a few dvds, do a few shows.. not gonna support the lifestyle I expect or demand for me or my family.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's more like the one guy or is it the 2 guys/brothers that own the Starboyz name that are making the money from the merchandising? Stunting is not how you making money, stunting is how you get your name out there, merchandising and being able to sell crap is how you make money. Guys like us paying $10, $15, $20 for a T-Shirt or $20 for a DVD or buying stickers for $2! It adds up eventually, especially if you do A LOT OF IT. Stone, you know what I mean, right?
The kid does have a point, but the "Starboyz"(s) didn't make all of their money stunting.
And please correct if you are a Starboy or are a freind with them...Cause that group has some seriously good skills, ya know...?
The only reason I say the above is, of course, because I saw an interview with the lead dude on TV, I think SPEED did something on him a few months ago. The thing is, they must have repeated it 3 or 4 times during the show. "So and so doesn't have time to mainstream stunt anymore. All he does is sit in front of the computer and collect orders for merchandise from 2 different internet web pages. He's also been busy selling merchandise to motorcycle shops and doing a lot of traveling. He only goes out to a few big stunt shows a year and one of them being (whatever the name of there stunt show is every year, I forget)." And seriously, they show him sitting in front of the computer like 3 or 4 times LOL It was a good show too...They show him throwing this huge party at the end of the week...OMG...He had some X Rider dude throwing Stunts over his house!
Think about it, does Todd Colbert or Barracuda films make money by doing stunts, heck no! They make money buy addicted junkies like us buying these videos, which are worth it most of the time
Stone, I haven't bought or seen any of your videos yet, but I plan on it. I like the last 30 minutes of the MTV show that I saw.
