[CanadianRidr]

Phh just because you are the godfather of garage freestyle doesn't mean you have to rub it in!

This could get interesting!! :scream:

My first submittal would be my attempt at a 360 degree back flip! :) I hurt to this day from it! :confused:

 

[roosterboy]

my submission would have to be my patented "sit-on-the-bike-backwards (after watching motoxxx and wondering how hard it is riding backwards) to step-off-and-hook-foot-on-seat to under the bike lander (snappingthe lever, of course."

 

[Okiewan]

ST500 is in deed the grandfather of GFX.

Note: Trained professionals in a closed garage. Do not attempt.

Ah yes, some impressive GFX stunts there ST500,....LMAO:)
My fav, of course, was the 'skydiver', but you know to maximize air time, one must use the 7/8" garden hose. :)

 

[Milquetoast]

"Under the frame heel clicker" LMAO!!! That dude has some talent!

 

[Old CR goat]

Now that just crazy! Why would anyone risk serious injury and trashing their bike doing stunts like that. I mean obviously these people have years of training behind them and scars from tricks gone bad.

I can just see some of the younger members here, taking a look at this and trying it at home.:)

You really don't want to start off attempting the hard stuff here, folks. Leave it to the Pros.

I suggest that if you are serious about GFX you start out in the "minor leagues" - TFX (Trailer Freestyle motoX). Start with the bike secured to your trailer with least 3 points anchored with tie-down straps. Start with the well-know tricks like no-handers 1st then work your way up to the more difficult tricks like the no-handed, no-footed, stalefish, nosebone fakie to a foofanoo olie baskspin 360 twist.

It is only when you have mastered these tricks (and many others) in a TFX setting that you should progress to a GFX set-up where the bike is only secured by a puny little bike stand. Yes, the road is long and hard, but with enough practice and determination it can be acheived by those with the desire.

[Old CR goat]

[DirtMonkey]

I like the sound of this, right now my xr is in the basement for the winter but i could maybe do a few tricks in the basement!LOL;) In the garage in the summer i was doing a bit of GFX (mostly dreaming that i could do the tricks in the air though!)

I have crashed! I attempted a sterilizer and had to go to the doc to get it finished . . . <groan>

You invented a new trick!!! "The flaceplant on the floor attack"! That will be a favorite at the x-games next summer!:)
