Define "freestyle". You mean like Eddie Fiola and half-pipe?

This was me circa 1984?

Heros of Dirt wasn't half bad but it's more about dirt jumping / trail riding. Local guy made it, filmed just a few miles from me. Catty Woods.

LOL yeah man that movie was great like 20 years ago. It was strictly for comedic value with some heavy cheesiness. Good for a laugh.

Im actually really good friends with jared washington and dominic biro, have been for over 20yrs. Im actually in a few animal videos myself. Im the idiot that backflipped off a piece of plywood on a stair set in the nb section of the one animal video. Just built up a new bike as well. A mutiny loosefella frame.
