- Great stuff!

^^ wow whats the tt on that? looks like a limo, does it come with a driver?

or is it just the angle of the picture?

Pretty sure its only 19", just the angle, low slung tt, and high dt make it look long.

experts.....really?.....wow!

Yea. Exactly.

Some of those guys are DEFINITELY pro material. Maybe the asian's have just stepped up their game so much that 'experts' are staying in the expert class longer and its not frowned upon.

at 4:23 in that KOG expert class video, that guy does something that I've envisoned, and that I posted about doing like the first week I started visiting this forum.

Another really unique trick idea taken : (  ....Its kinda like a decade, except you spin the bike 360 instead of your body. Its a very akward trick, and people accidently do a 180 all the time...but a full 360 is REALLY hard. But that guy did it !

And @ 5:50 ? That guy is so freaking good, theres just NO WAY he should be riding in experts. That combo was off the charts crazy difficult and super technical.

Can someone please explain to me what he actually did at 5:57? He did some crazy tailwhip to scuff from the pedal, then some wierd twist/transition where he...spins the bars, or his body, but keeps his foot on the pedal? I cant even tell what he did it was so crazy tech.

Never compare yourself to asians. 

It'll only drive you mad at how much better they are than you.

They're not better. It's just more culturally acceptable to dedicate yourself to something like that than it is in America.

I just don't think your average American rider knows how to do this.

Maybe the asian's have just stepped up their game so much that 'experts' are staying in the expert class longer and its not frowned upon.

Not exactly,
there are special rules to follow in KOG, you can't go in the pro class just if you want. Some riders in pro class one time have to ride as expert other time.
The rules are on the KOG website.

Asians have the most number of people in the world. In Tokyo only live about 16 mln. people. Ofcause there are more flat riders than in some other city in Europe or America. And yeah their spots and weather are much more cool...
