Jesus Brandon...I'm just giving my personal opinion and trying to be respectful...I'm not demanding they meet my needs...I tried to say over and over that I really appreciate what happens. Your clear sarcasm is pretty obvious in how you feel about what I think, i even asked for people to please not be dicks about it, and you come off making comments clearly trying to humiliate me?Like I totally knew this thread was going to turn into this too, but I tried to be respectful and just give my opinion and the opinion of friends/family on the event. If you want to sh*t on all my ideas Brandon, go ahead, but I'm not going to give you a response of any intelligence either.f*cking christ.
There is absolutely zero positives about holding demos without music or someone there to hype of the crowd. The only reason that nobody is sayng anything about it is because it's f*cking CHASE CHASE CHASE. To tell people "if you don't like it don't watch it" is kind of silly especially when you have other riders at the event who clearly drew more interest than anything Chase was doing. If it was anyone but CHASE GOUIN we would all point to it and think it's stupid, but since it is.. well.. clearly being against such a thing is an indefensible position to anyone above the MTV generation
The MTV Generation (known as the Much Music Generation in Canada) is a term sometimes used to refer to (middle and upper class) people born between roughly 1975-1986, a generation whose adolescence and coming of age is perceived to have been heavily influenced by 1990s era popular culture in general and mass media in particular. damn you 29-34 year olds with no attention span.The source was wikipedia, not credible.. but credible enough for my point.I think he meant to cut up the Millennial Generation.

If so, maybe now you know a little about how it feels to be on this end of things. It's a real bummer to spend a weekend 'giving back' only to get an earful of inconsiderate meanness.
I want to see Chase ride...music or not! The guys intensity is enough to drowned out any music if you ask me. I think a demo without all the distractions would be good. It shows the true essence of flatland...not just another circus freak show. That's what park riders are for. I think flatland is more of a purist thing.
OLD SCHOOL THINKING PEOPLE ARE KILLING MODERN FLATLAND...Peace out
