And he let his mom (what it looks like) pick up his bike for him.

What a dweeb.

He's a winner...Moto-X freestyle gear on a street bike, with road helmet on, not secured to his head...Hmm...

maybe it's just me, but i get kinda bored with stunting.  stoppies, wheelies, more wheelies, more stoppies.  I'm not saying it doesn't  take talent  to do these things, but whenever I watch these videos it gets kinda repetitive.

That's why I love those motocross stunt challenge contests.  They do some WICKED stunts.  You gotta wonder how the practicing went to learn 360* loops and 90* turns in mid air!   :o

at least it was on a track or strip.. not on the road...

cut the guy some slack... he did almost everything right... wore helmet and stunted in a safe, controlled, off-road environment... now if he could just get that not-flipping-the-bike-over thing down, he's all good


awesome video.

I'm with vtlion on this one. Can't expect to get good at stuff like that without crashing once in a while. At least he was doing in the right sort of place...and he had SOME gear on.

Pretty cool how the bike did that. I wonder how long before they figure out how to do that intentionally now that they know it's possible.   :)

If you think they don't do that on the street too you are kidding yourself.
