- On my way moving west to California from Orlando, I stopped by Raleigh, NC for the CFB round 2 at Utopia skatepark.
Rumor had it, Dave wanted to fire out a double backflip (first ever in a contest).
Well, here it is, as it transpired.
This is the definition of camaraderie.
We miss you Dave.

Ask permission before use, thank you.
what a different time, id never thought id be in my 30s looking back at this stuff with the same awe i did in my teens, incredibly thankful to have had some of these lunatics to look up to as a kid
Same dude!!! Same...sad he's not with us anymore...he would have made a great personality in xgames or even tiktok
This was the best generation of BMX. Tons of never been done tricks. A bunch of dudes kids could look up to. Nowadays you got guys doing drugs and partying in their videos and that's what kids these days are seeing. Ya they're good but I'd rather see BMX from this Era than a triple whip to late bar backflip.
Lol exactly how I feel. Gave me chills still. This was bmx to me back then not to much trickery just huge air and huge smooth tricks
@@neonnerd1364 I get what you mean, but definately not all of them. Rwilly for example is all good vibes. Just watched his video on the worlds' second ever quad flip on bmx. Then I looked up this video for nostalgia and to think about how everything has developed
Kinda fucked up seeing it now knowing he ended committing suicide...
R.i.p. Colin and Dave. You are missed...
Damn, every single legend in the same room.
Much Love Dave, thank you for showing my generation real BMX!
Damn man this dude was the tony hawk of bmx,im from brooklyn and as a kid he made me learn how to do certain tricks etc.r.i.p you are missed mirra
I'm more impressed by how smooth he is that the backflip. Although the backflip is amazing no doubt. He's just so good. It's all the little things. His conservation of energy, the angle he comes back in at. The way he transfers his weight around. He's truly a master. Watching him is like watching one of these 70 yo Korean 9th degree Taekwondo guys or Moscow ballerina or something.. He's just so technically proficient. I
This is why I watch x games to this day and appreciate all the young kids and pact crowds
Moments in history at Utopia.
Thanks for sharing this gem.
Everyone congratulated Dave but as soon as he seen Colin and Colin got to Dave, they gave each other a real loved gripping hug. Truly beautiful. RIP DAVE AND COLIN. Colin let me witness a lot of crazy things on and off the bike. Two true stuntmen.
You were indeed lucky to experience Colin in real time. The dude was one of a kind, in the best way.
One of the all time greats. Fact. RIP Dave. Sadly missed. Just an absolute amazing rider.
That was an amazing moment from an amazing guy.
Rip Dave, you will never be forgotten.
This is cool Cory Nastazio , Nate Wessel , Ryan Nyquist , Mike larid , Leigh Ramsdell in one park this is awesome
Yes, so fun to see. Will put up a cut of the whole park comp once I find the rest of the footage:)
@@MavroCam okay bro cause I wanna see that midschool footage
I never really knew that Nate competed he was like always riding BMX in the skate park and the streets and building parks and announcing comps
Van Homan towards the end too.
don't forget Colin Winkelmann
Mirra will always be missed, I also salute Randy Taylor we would pray to see the v-club at the parks here in Texas.
Thank you for the video- I was a 14 yo kid watching from the floor crowd, this was insane- better yet was how kind and welcoming Nyquist and the pros were to little park rats like me, getting in the way all week.
Real pro's, Nyquist is the man
Love the end with Van listening to Dave with the mouth wide open! 😂😂😂 thanks for all this videos, man! Love em! 🤘🏻🇨🇱✌🏻
Damm what a legend. Just blasting that box jump!!
Miss you Dave wish you were still here but your spirit lives on thanks for making my childhood one for the books!! 😇🙏💯
The landing on the second attempt was so friggin' smooth.
Sad I missed this. I was living here then too! Nyquist, Laird, Mirra, I bet that was an amazing show. Damn and there's Winkelman too.
Man I miss those days
Dave was a legend
Jeez, that moment when he and Colin are hugging...tough to watch now. Also, it’s insane to realize that the Van Homan in this video was known, but Criminal Mischief wasn’t out yet.
Still surreal. Hope to find the rest of this contest footage in my archives. Thanks for watching:)
This is that exact time period where he starts putting in all that work for Criminal Mischief, so word was getting around of all the wild new street stuff he was doing during that period. I mean his part in that video arguably changed bmx forever, its the start of modern street riding in a lot of ways.
Mirra is for me the best rider ever.
Thanks alot Mavro!! I'll never get tired of the footage you post!!!
Met him the night before because a buddy of mine invited me, knew I liked biking, was into mountain at the time. Missed this day but remember seeing his super grainy video when he got back to campus.
Rip. always cry ffs miss you dave 😭
Thank you you guys. Bmx old. School. 4 ever
Dude I miss Mirra. The dude was such a legend.
Todos los iconos en un mismo lugar lo que tenían que verlo lo vieron.. sin público solo Rider! Van, Cory, Mike lird, colín, Nate.. wessel... Ect
Mirra was a true legend and CHAMPION of BMX. He probably should have stayed away from that channel that used to play music videos.
RIP Dave Mirra the legend! He lived more in his short time than 99% of people will in an entire lifetime.
My childhood hero
RIP Mirra.
🌹♥️ R.I.P. Master
Dave really was something special!
Just amazing!
You can feel how heavy were those bikes back then.
Guys a legend 💪🏽
I miss that man. He meant so much to bmx and he never realized it.
That goes for winkleman also. 😥
Great moment captured. Thank you for uploading.
I do wonder if Laird feels bad about making Mirra bail the flair.
Thanks! That's not Laird. I can neither confirm nor deny that certain person in the red and black jersey bears the initials "AC" :)
Super cool. Thanks Mavro!
Thank you for this ❤️❤️
Dave mirra king lion
Mac caul aplaudiendo a mirra, que hermoso

He make a history of bmx..R.I.P bro..

Jay Miron is First pulled Double Backflip
True, Jay did do 'em first- most notably on a TV Show filmed in Orlando called "Ordinary Extraordinary."
It's on TH-cam:)
Mirra's was the first double pulled in a competition.
@@MavroCam legends 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
RIP the tramp stamp on Mirra's back.
какой год?
May 2000 :)
It's sad Colin Winkleman also committed suicide back in 05 and Patrick Casey died last year from cardiovascular disease .
Man he almost looped that out. Jesus that would be awful
I love Dave to death but Jay miron did that one first. He's always in the background.

@@MavroCam true, two legends
@@davidlawrence8051 Indeed, need more Jay in general!
@@MavroCam yeah I honestly think in terms of overall riding with all disciplines Jay is the GOAT. Not in terms of competitions but his ability to do a little bit of all of them.
Of course this is mavrocam
I'll take that as a compliment :)
@@MavroCam you were everywhere during the golden era... Your channel needs to be preserved for BMX archaeologists
@@LarryStranger Ha, "It belongs in a museum" as my face melts off. Thanks Larry!
