Just watched this in Movie Mondays on Pinkbike. Never heard of this guy before (don't follow BMX) but wow that was ace! I've watched a couple of his how-to videos and he seems like a nice chap (not sure why he'd be called a knob?) doesn't seem like a great teacher though xD

He acts like a ****t to kids that go to the skate parks. He's even been warned about it by the owner of one of the parks...

There's another video that he's done in a skate park in Spain. Style for miles in that one

First vid on here

Having the pin pulled out of his finger, hard as nails...

I think the comment about style is a fair one. Matt Priest has plenty of it...

That said, the video of Main in Spain (falls mainly on the...) shows he does have a fair bit of style, and massive moves at the same time....

Have you met him? and actually seen this behaviour from him?

He was banned from rampworks for quite a while before he became a megastar for being a arse.
Getting wrong.

Grace and elegance

Whoever disliked this video should be punched in the cock? with a schoolbus

Top comment on utube )

I've not watched BMX vids since the 90s/props etc, but that was genuinely jaw-dropping.

nope.. wish I could..
what's the style that's got a lot more flatland moves over the miniramps..? it's a lot more fluid.. like a fusion of park and flatland..
less is more and all that.. I could watch that all day..

this guy is too grrrrrrrr for me.. s'boring.. too mainstream

I can understand where you're coming from, I'm a big fan of the techy ramp stuff myself but a foot plant flair? Awesomeness...

Now, street videos where its grind after grind bores me senseless....different strokes for different folks and all that...

Although the ultra techy stuff blows my mind it can get a bit dull after a while.

The Mike Aiken video is something else, big fast and flowy. My favorite style of bmx riding. Tom Duggan and Chase Hawk are another two great riders.

Who else has a similar style?
