What kind of seat is that ?
Great video! I'd love to see on pumping video some guys just seem to fly way faster through the rhythm section
The seat post is like 2ft long,funny
ohh my lord that kid who peddled his bike so hard that he ended up doing something i haven't seen on a flat before he was putting on his perks into strength and none in ima call it keeping the bike on somewhat of the same plane you are trying to move forward in (OORr) your gonna have a bad time lol
in 2004 i got into expert in age 10 i think but i was racing for about one year and was racing for a team reno photo's 3rd in grands and i would always in the middle of a race my feet would slip into my shin witch would almost stop anygood win for that day but when i went to clipon's i skidded on my back after landing on my back wheel and i was out for at least 2 or maybe 3 weeks
Turns out, alot of my fitness activities are dead on point for BMX. Basketball, Kick Boxing bag, Scooting. Thxs. Buying a BMX bike next week, wish me luck.
What is that seat post dam long love it
Kids and even older riders pay attention to this guy. Im 50 years old and been riding for many years, mtb, motocross and i have had some good stacks and broken bones, im not the best rider but i love everything about bmx racing, the one thing that has kept me riding is training, strength training, cardio eg.. Basically what he is demonstrating, and i love to deadlift and squat, its one thing i have never stopped, my technic riding bmx is still got a while to go but the fun part is learning. So you just have to look at this dude and he is built like a beast and explosive! From Australia mate thanks heaps for sharing your experience with us, its alot of help and much appreciated. 🙋🏻♂️
I was 8 years old and riding on the bmx track after hrs with only a half helmet like youre using. Cased a triple and got launched over the bars into the dirt face first, knocked the 2 top front teeth clean out and really bad gravel rash all over my face. Do NOT recommend half helmets
Thanks. Plyometric jumps so important. Good to remember
I actually like that setup with that tall seat post. Curious on where to find something like that.
I'm 13 trying to get in to this sport
Flat pedals in 1987, flat pedals in 2022 for me.
Question, I’m looking for something to get exercise with. Not in a competitive racing. I see these race BMX bikes as a great tool to take riding around my neighborhood and exercising. Is that accurate? Or my better off with something else? I do have cruiser bikes and I do have other BMX bikes but I’m looking for something that if I put a lot of energy into it I can go fast and become one with the bike. Is this a good application or not? The race BMX?
Besides technique best advice I can give don't just go to easy races you know your going to do well at…so you think your fast go find where the fastest people in the World are and start riding with them if you want to get fast!!!! Lol eventually you will be rite with them…
chain fell off during training and mt feet flew off. i ended up sliding over a table top on my knees. 3 weeks heal time
Question from a newb, kind of. Getting back into racing at 48, and raced as a kid. Been mountain biking since, but am curious….do I keep my finger on the brake throughout the race, like when riding MTB, or just hold the grip and move the finger to the brake as needed? Weird and dumb question, I know.
OK Barry, I'm 45 and starting BMX next spring for the first time so your my guy. I'm gonna spend the winter trying to shed some lbs. I'll be watching your videos religiously for the next several months. #letsdothis
Great tips, but FYI the thumbnail is for pro tips, not beginner training.
I grew up riding Odyssey Sharkbites which took a number on my shins lol.
I was a the state finals and just turned intermediate so I was still in flat pedals and got 4th place in the pack every one had clips and I didn’t I would definitely recommend flats
Thanks for taking the time to do these videos for us Barry. Myself and my little guy love them, theyre really helpful
Loving the Mom tattoo! The only tattoo I approve of when my son gets that age 😂. Thanks for the video – so great!
awesome video!! thank you!
Just getting back into racing after 10 years and this was very beneficial thank you for your time
what is the best race bike?
