He's good .. he was on the BBC Scotland news a couple of nights ago. He says he's given up the day job due to the amount of interest in this clip and his abilities

That lad deserves to make some kind of living doing that. The skill and the amount of time he has put in deserves rewards. Amazing!

Ah so... you were the dude hopping from bollard to bollard on your front tyre down Rothesay pier years ago I thought those eighties shoulder pads and the mullet were a bit over the top though

Yup!

Used to do alot of riding as a kid and didn't bother about falling off. Now you have so much too lose, a broken arm would cost me my job! I've seen some of the crashes they have, not good.

Different style of rider but anyone remember JMC..... didn't he live though.

Legend!

I spent last summer downhilling in Whistler and the standard of some of my un-sponsored friends was amazing, let alone the world cup guys who came over for crankworx! Some images in my portfolio on my website.

I'll have a look today.
Dirt was on youtube but the sounds gone for some reason? Jason's Dad is one there with a couple of short clips of Dirt. Most of it was filmed around where I live, great loss.
