I enjoy watching the vintage freestyle from the 90's and early 2000's more, seems like there was more style, variety and thought put into the performances. These back flips are impressive today but all the freestyle performances look the same to me? Back flip minus 1 arm, back flip minus 1 arm and 1 leg, back flip with a hand clap, etc...

Andrew W. Yeah I totally agree 90s 2000s freestyle much more creative looks like freestyle today has just become about horse power and flips kind a like watching a wheelie competition you see one wheelie You saw them all. I remember watching videos of the old 550 freestyle events and how much time when into developing a routine and how much variety was in the routine and yes many by today’s standards and may have been simpler but they had a great entertainment factor which is a big part of what Got the sport to where it is now. I remember standing on the beach in Ventura with Loyd being the announcer with Roy doing the first backflip on any motorized vehicle. I guess I’ll stick to free riding I’m just enjoy and watch the sport progress

Hi. Question.. are riders locking the articulating stirring arm down, I see them re adjusting something here and there. Is the a lock and lock depending on the tricks ? Sorry, newbie to the culture.

They say this was in Havasu? I go to Havasu, Parker, or Mojave and just barely tried a jetski last weekend. Most fun I've had on the water
