and you can edit crashes / bad cuts, can't edit a comp!
If I went out and just made a 5 minute video from 5 minutes of riding, it'd be a video of me ******* up a lot

Because in a comp if you wreck you **** your score, so you're only gonna wanna do **** you got locked down

that is what i figured its like that shin vid of him taring up the ship yard. that vid was sick but i seen some of him in comps and they were very boring and the same lame Os over and over. they were perfect but boring that is what i hate about comps i like when the guys just let loose and kill it

haha not at all..... i know many many many riders who if you say do this trick.... they will get it on their first try..... most riders i know kill it way more in the lot because our lots are big... flat and nice... thats why we ride there bc we find a nice lot and ride it..... now comps are at shitty tracks with huge cracks... shitty surface and they are small areas..... its not the same.... you have to adjust to some shitty surface in a day....

naw i still dont think its going to work. unless your a stunter your not going to get into it. whatching wheely after wheely will get old to spectators. i personaly love it but the majority of the public does not.

See Guru you are fun to watch in comps cause you always seem to throw something new in the mix. but what im saying is if it does make it to the X games they should give a little on the points for execution and add for an exciting run.. the crowd and TV ratings will enjoy pros getting down and busting out some sick moves and combos more then a perfect O. If this makes sence

Re: X-Games 2010
arg, no dude. that was an example. no doubt football and baseball r more popular but the statistic done by American Sports Data Inc researched the quantity of people who actually *played* all the different sports throughout the year not who watched it. how many ppl once graduated high school actually have a chance to go out and play an actualy fully teamed game of football or baseball? *not* passing the ball but actual game with full teams? but as far as fans go. there are millions of paintball fans but thousands of stunt fans. why would x-games hold stuntin but not ballin when the popularity for one is durastically higher than the other? it sounds like a killer idea, id love to watch either on espn. just dont get the hopes up.
i had mikem doing a pow pow that looked squiddly but i think this better portrays my riding abilities ATOWNCUSTOMS

Re: X-Games 2010
And GURU i understand exactly what you are saying but the fact is X games is national televised and the public wants to see crashes!! its just sad that you guys cant ride 2 your fullest cause of some stupid points. there is noting like seeing you in a lot just tearing it up. it makes me want to ride in the snow,rain,tornado what ever it gets you pumped. but a comp puts me to sleep
