  • I made this video for people who are NEW TO BMX and don't know what kind of tricks to try. I tried to pick things with low risk so that all of you can go out and try this stuff. Hopefully it helps some of you guys and let me know what you thought about it.

      The real key to riding street is to ride in, do a few trix, then ride out like you don't know what happened!! Then ride on to the next spot!! BMX is NOT ILLEGEAL!!!!

      Exactly is a term meaning it is with absoluteness, or without discrepancy. Almost means nearly which leaves room for discrepancy. The terms conflict and shouldn't be used together. It would be like saying "I always never do this"

    This is by far one of the best BMX videos I have watched in a long time. What makes it great is your devotion and positive message. Viewers can observe your dedication in the filming and editing, as well as your progression as a rider. The apparent commitment is complimented with an all-comers welcome attitude. BMX is shown through a non bias and welcoming point of view. All riding is good riding is a common theme, showing that anyone can have fun on a bike. Please continue to produce content while staying true to your core values.
    Thank you

    It's been a couple years since I saw this video but I did give these things a shot although granted haven't been able to spend much time BMXing here in Scotland for all kinds of reasons.
    One thing I did was get a bottle and just "kick" it around with my bike in different ways, hitting it with the tyres. It was really fun, helped me learn some of the intricate stuff for bike control. By the end of the night (yes, one night) I went from just being ok with that kind of stuff to really having fun with it. I was whipping the bottle with my back wheel and shit. I left at 2am and came back to my flat at 5 or 6am. Some of the reactions were quite good where I was too, drunk people stopping to watch me and shit haha.
    Keep doing you Spencer and thanks for making this video!

    Thanks a lot. I may not have the BMX tricks, but I love the instant response it gives me when I'm pulling into my driveway at like 10 MPH or so. I really appreciate your tutorial. I'm still trying to get better air on my bunny hops, but whatever. I love the freedom BMX gives me. I ride Haro Bikes--like BMX Pro Mike Gray, or Grey. Thanks again, Mike

      I had the same problem. Everything I am about to tell you will help a lot. (it did for me, at least) Put your seat up like 6 in or as high as it goes. this helps keep the bike under you. (you can lower it when you are more comfortable) Get a pair of gloves. Thank me later. If you have a trampoline, make a tramp bike. Words can't explain how much a tramp bike helps. If you dont have a trampoline, maybe take your wheels and cranks off and try them flat with your feet on each side. Feels dumb, but thats as close as you can get to the real thing. Once you are comfortable with the motion, find a flyout quarter and force yourself to throw them. It takes time

    This is good it's about time someone took the time off to show you how to ride BMX bike. I myself always wanted to learn how to do tricks on the BMX bike. So now this is my chance to learn I'm a beginner. I've been seeing guys do tricks on the BMX bikes and it's a beautiful thing. Especially when someone is very skilled and good. Thanks a lot my brother I will be looking at all your stuff.

    Cheers Spencer, I just started riding BMX this year, and appreciate you putting time into this.
    Unfortunately I slid off the side of a quarter pipe last night, when the park was still wet after rain, and hit my knee pretty hard so it's couch & youtube for the next couple weeks. Kids, wear pads! I could have been riding right now, IF ONLY I HAD FOLLOWED MR FORESMAN'S ADVICE!

    I was just about to comment last night when the transformer outside my apartment got struck by lightning and the power went out. Freaking loud. My ears were ringing. Any way, I just got a new bike and have only been riding for about a week (when it hasn't been raining). I've mainly been thinking of BMX as just exercise. I tried to do some of the harder tricks but got discouraged, but because of this video I'm now focusing only on having fun, hoping, and balance and I'm already seeing improvements. I can sometimes high hop now. Thank you for reminding me to have fun with this. Thank you for posting this video, and thank you Spencer! :)

    This video was literally PERFECT for showing some basic rudiments to practice on without putting ur neck in jeopardy.
