Ross Smith is rad.  That switch to backward-rolling backpacker at 6:10 was amazing.  The multiple straddles were too.

Does anyone know if Ross still rides?

I completely agree. I remember seeing him ride in Connect I believe and being blown away and then wondering how I'd never heard of him before that.

Hes always ridden for himself only. Just underground, Im sure he's riding just as much these days as well.
