Wow!

I love the part where he wheelies backwards and then forwards.

I miss my Team Raleigh Burner so much!

I've got a couple of mates who do Trials. It's crazy what they can on their bikes.

One is a fully sponsored British champ and makes a living doing displays.

This is him.. http://www.trialsdisplay.co.uk/image..._1280x1024.jpg

We've joked about building me a bike out of some of his prototyle/freebies. Safe to say I would end up in that dock!!

You have to pedal backwards or the wheel locks.

Hell the 360 spin down the subway steps was shocking.

The tree spin was unreal

Superb, makes my 10ft drop off seem small

Its just a normal freehub.....he's not pedaling backwards he's just letting it roll back underhim and using his weight to control it.

I ride a bit of trials myself but noting that amazing. He's crossed BMX and trials so fluidly, amazing. I was loving his tailwhips

That is awsome! He fell off the railings straight onto the bike/his face and then he went back on it and went all the way across
