Wow…brings back memories of REGULARLY seeing such things here in Chi-town (randomly, on the street, with no cameras) in the late 90’s.
Those were different times *le sigh*
At first I thought this would be ended by the Nike swoosh and some slogan like “The World is Your Playground”. But Nike probably wouldn’t have put in little things like the guy putting that car barrier thing back the way he found it (awww).
What I have never understood is where the force is coming from to raise the center of mass in some of these jumps. See also skateboards.
Some of them it’s obvious conversion of KE or pushing off something else at an angle.
But a lot of these, he’s moving along a flat and sproing he’s suddenly up two feet on a bollard or railing. There’s some forces at play that I just can’t see.
Silvermoonwolf… seriously… I think the internet may have killed the part of your brain responsible for processing things that are TOTALLY FREAKING AWESOME. Your balls should be shrivelling up in awe right now. Mine are, and I don’t even have balls.

Awesome.
It’s like Parkour, only with a mountain bike. Pretty cool. I just hope the guy never crashed into any passers-by.
Holy–!!
Some of those moves were like you’d find in a platform jumper.
Now I want a really cool Prince of Persia-style game, except set on a bicycle.
I couldn’t watch him ride along that fence at the start.
I want to see people spear hunt from these bicycles.
They can do that as much as they want, to me, it will always look awkward and clunky when compared to parkour or skateboarding.
This is the best reason you should write “Doctor Strange” yet!

Also known as how to make me feel like a stupid git who doesn’t know how to ride a bike AT ALL in comparison. 😀
Really cool. I love that he’s also smart enough to wear a helmet. There are some serious tards out there in most vids like this…
Also, I was totally waiting for him to impale himself on that first fence.
so what? i can ride a bike too

Hee hee.
Great video, though. Love the music and editing, and of course the skill on display. Good stuff.
Proof, if proof were needed, that there are lunatics in my town.
