The problem that I have of saying that I have been riding for 4 years and 4 months is that even though this is a flatland forum, I still don't just ride flatland.  I have been riding on and off for 24 years.  When I call myself a "rider", I mean I ride everything.  Vert too...if you have it.  Hmmm...I don't know.  You have an interesting view on this. 

I like your ideas on voting and the classifications of riders.  That would be a good way to go about it.  Good stuff...

Speaking of G-turns...I miss Dennis McCoy riding flat.

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply to say that you've only been 'riding' 4 years 4 months, just that you've 'ridden flat' 4 years and 4 months. What you do while you ride flat (vert, street, extreme pogo'ing) doesnt matter, as long as your riding flat!

I dont miss McCoy's flat at all....or his g-turn's ....because he implemented them so good in the park!!! I remember him doing 720 tailtap's then would ride down the ramp in a fakie nose manual...god that was killer.

alright, here it is, I didn't get my foot on the pedal on the steam, and couldn't pedal to save the pedal megaspin, but I had very little to work with, it was basically 2 or 3 attempts, the Camera had very little space on it.

Addison, that video was f*cking awesome!
Personally, I love seeing "almost landed" stuff at the very outer limits of skillset, but you hit a couple good tricks as well. I like the fact that you try to go big. In time, you'll be pulling that stuff.
Is it possible to contact Team Pralex Headquarters to get me one of those shirts, or is that just a team thing?

I really hope you got the band "the devil wears prada" hoodie, so that you can then hate promoting a metalcore band, and sell it to me.

Don't worry about yo britches man...remember, to be "hardcore", you must not worry about fashion!   I kid, I kid.

Hang-fives are coming a long nicely.  Good video, man. 

Oh, and there's no room in flatland for metal or anything core...especially, hardcore.

Man, I love me some music too!  Metal and hardcore are the only things that touch my I-Pod.
