Title: Wiss Video on Youtubes
Post by: fishnchips on April 21, 2008, 11:03:19 PM
After seeing some videos linked on mtbr this one came up on youtubes as a 'related' video.

It's just some yahoos having a blast in the Wiss and on Demo 1, but it's awesome, because that's what it's all about!

that was great. I love that the places often in the vids are the places that have been worked on.

Check out this vid; micro dude owns demo 1 !

first one is climb past the indian. The group is coming up mother, and the last coming out of the the stream crossing at before summit or it's the golf course hill; forget.

or I'm totally wrong and this is some other park

that's the bowl. I was riding it on my SS last week ;). I'm not sure where the first part is but in the second half they hit some launches at the bowl about 20 times.

Hey Thanks Bonkers..!   that Microdude was my oldest son Ryan (5yrs old) riding Demo 1 last summer.   I posted on You Tube for his Uncle Lou (PMBA El Presidente) to check out as he was very proud of himself..  Cool that you found it.. and I love seeing all the vids of people enjoying the Wiss!

Well, Now he's six and he and his two younger bro's are hitting a skate ramp I just bought for our driveway.... As soon as I come home they make me set it up and ride till it gets dark..  you gotta love it.

Here's a shot of Ryan clearing the tabletop already...   (I wonder where he gets that skill from.. ;D   Not bad for a 6 yr old!

Wow, that really speaks to the ability of youth to learn and adapt.  That's really neat Fish.  Now just imagine what Mason will do on a motocross bike!  that kids either going to be ricky carmichael or his momma's going to get a divorce.

How bout it.. I think Joe will have Mason trying the Pro-line when he's 7...     He's already asking me where to buy the ramp and  his kid is only 3!   Oh boy.
