Flats Not Dead.
« on: July 14, 2013, 10:05:39 AM »

Do you remember that Inertia video with Lee Musselwhite and Paul Tout? I do.
It's one of the more iconic videos that I've seen since I started riding. So much originality.
Lee posted this picture today of Tout doing a new original trick called the Sledgehammer. What do you think? Is it better to invent tricks like this than... anything else? Do you have original tricks?

I loved that video, always have.  Wish I saw more of this type of riding.  Creativity is king.

This is originality.
