Re: Do you want to see this sport become mainstream?
Mikee i agree with you there.. I can ride idle wheelie, do couple circles on good day.. still learning. i find it fun to put the time in to learn to slow wheelies more than spend the money on tires or get used ones from shops to learn burnouts right now. can't say somone has to know how to do burnouts or tank wheelies before they can do idle wheelies.. somtimes some tricks just aren't appealing to other riders to want to learn.(( and i can do rolling ones but never attempted circle burnouts neverp ut the time in ))

Re: Do you want to see this sport become mainstream?
I voted no and all I have to say is if it does go mainstream you going to see alot more heat from the cops just like skaters did, you think its bad now it will get to the point were there will be no such thing as a warning or a nice cop. Cause kids will see this on t.v. and **** and go wow i want to do that and then go eat **** on the freeway and kill some one and then there gonna blaim mainstream stunting. JUST LIKE THE OLD SCHOOL STREET RACEs, that **** started way back in the sixtys and the when it got popular aftere fast and the furious it got shut down for good. ANyways thats a brief opinion of mine.

to all the "gangsta" individuals that don't think/want this sport to go anywhere-----you are RETARDED----
don't you want to be looked at as doing something worth while? doing something that actually has respect, not always disrespect??

oh, and to answer the question, do i want to see it go mainstream, i don't think so, i think what drew me to it was the fact that it wasn't.

Re: Do you want to see this sport become mainstream?
It would be cool to let poeple see what stunters can do on bikes just as freestyle moto. But my other side hayes when everyone likes one thing or gets popular and that doesn't allow stunting to be pure.

Re: Do you want to see this sport become mainstream?
I wouldn't mine turning on the TV and seeing a stunt comp on speed, or seeing some designated stunt parks with lights and ****. I just like seeing new stuff come up, but I don't think it will happen cuz people are ignorant, I get yelled at and chased by cops for riding the 50 around, but I also ditched my first cop when I was 13 cuz he was going to take my skateboard away, and that has changed now days.

Re: Do you want to see this sport become mainstream?
our comps could def. use something to liven them up a bit....no way in hell would i sit down and watch all of stuntwars on tv.....fmx comps for instance-5 or 6 jumps, that's it.....run what ya brung....that's how this sport will be.....and big events will only have 10 people in them.....not 100.
there's going to be a handful of guys that make it.....and an even larger handful that don't make the cut....and get left in the dust (i.e. the people who don't want to, or don't have the heart to put in this sport)
