Does anyone think that someday freestyle will just end because there will be no more tricks to do? Not end but just sort of get old.

it will never get old for me. its ben what i've loved to do for 4 years, and i've been working and i cant imagine the day where fmx because lame to me. i dont care if it is "old" in the n ear future, i will always be doing this, as long as possible. there may come a day when evrything possible, and impossible has been done on a motorcycle, but i will keep doing what im doing right now and be proud of it.

Crusty has a point about BMX, but when was the last time there was a NEW trick in BMX? There wasn't but people who are just starting are always trying to do the tricks, so there is always someone doin some ****, if you get what i mean, coz i don't heh...

Thats just a variation, I mean a new TRICK, not just some old ones in a row.

Don't overlook the obvious, you are going to start seeing some changes in the obstacles and course design this will help the riders continue to push the limits.I can't believe you guys are even talking about the death of our beloved sport.Spread the word and keep the faith!!!

fmx is gonna last man, theres a few tricks that need to be done, such as the 360, and the backflip, and once someone can do those, the sport will blow up. as for bmx, the newest trick is the Turndown 360 backflip. Murry did it at Gravity. Looks sick

i dont think it was a turndown 360 flip
just 360 flip but that trick isnt new because kennan harkin
has been doing those for a few years now and maybe even someone before him
as for fmx the body varial is coming soon
as well as a decade

i heard some pro say that soon the courses will look more and more like a bmx street course.

hey look at motocross madness 2! that games beeen around for years but with new tracks it keeps going.


and has anyone seen a pic of the "holy man"? i heard justin homan invented it recently.

im not sure but i kinda can see that fmx is growing a little to quikly, like i think it should slow down a little before it runs out, but it will never die because the people doin that #### will be gone soon and a new genoration will have to learne it . but were all at the right age cause even if it does die , it wont before were to old to do it so i think were lucky. Thats just my opinion

freestyle wont end. coarse change will help that. just imagin like a dirt half pipe and the possibilites of that. i could see the concern cause how many more new tricks could there be? who knows its all up to the riders. i think the combos will be key and already look better than some new tricks.

What do all of you think of Homan using a bungee cord to do the holy man? ive heard a lot of people criticize the use of a cord for a trick... i for one think its fine, because its the only possible way for him to do the trick... but others have different views... what about you all?

with FMX you will always have some one trying somethign different or going some where never thought if, there are a lot of little seths and harts and pastranas out there that have just thrown their leg over a bike its only time till something new comes out.:D

Depends, MX used to be the biggest, then SX cam and it took over, then FMX came and it starting to take over, if there is a new form of riding somewhere down the line, it could easily take over.

FMX is fine, don't stress about the future, ride for today.
