downhill BMX

[dunnonuttin]

well ive never heard of it until now when i was watching it on tv. im seriously thinking of getting into it even though its alot faster and more dangerous but i cant resist the speeds they go:D . if anyone has ever done downhill bmx before, can you give me some of your best gear setups?

[dunnonuttin]

come on people, i need to know everything about this sport. my parents are ok with it but i have to pay entry fees until i can get sponsored for this. all they will support is regular bmx cause my mom does all she can to watch me race that muchless going what looks like 50 mph down a hill jumping 40 foot doubles.

[dunnonuttin]

ok guys you have to check this crazy stuff out. i have never won a race in a national so do you think i got a chance in this. especially with a 65 foot double on one of the tracks i would run?

Sounds like fun. Perhaps you should ask this question on a BMX board since most people here ride ATV's.

Wel then i guess you wont be riding a car or a quad or a bicycle since you can die from all of them too. What happened to you being so crazy? Got alittle scared?

Looks like your trying to get attention again NCRedneck! :rolleyes:

[devildriver422]

i always wanted to try bmx n i got started overthe summer a little cuz i ahd no quad but then i got a bent rim and never got a new one...it wont hold air even with a tube and new tire idk wtf is up

[SRH]

i dont t hink you can enter in it anyway... there is one in cali and one in woodward pa, i was watching a race in cali on fuel and they were saying its a pro invite only, you have to be spot on to do all those jumps too there all just getting over them

do downhill mtb there cooler anyway, and they go bigger and faster
