Anyone into it ?
I used to be bigtime when i was younger, used to live in the woods jumping and also down the parks on the ramps / out in the streets
Used to love watching the top dogs like, McCoy, Hoffman, Mira, Shaw etc
I am seriously thinking about getting another bike Anyone else do it ? Are there any decent parks around nowadays ?
