not to burst your bubble but......i doubt they will do it


they would need another course besides the dirtbike course


the tricks arent as big , thier not quite as high, thier isnt as big of a vareity of tricks, there are not many riders...no qualifiers to get riders in...well there isnt a big enough field of riders...



lets see what h bomb does with demos and contests and what riders come in to the scene in the near future;)

saying quads can't do as many tricks as bikes is a common misconception nowadays. sure a year ago this was true but now there ae some guys out there who are just amazing.

there arent enough riders (pros) that can go big enough to catch the interest of enouugh ppl to actually watch. what im trying to say is that the demand for quad freestyle isnt quite up to par yet,,,maybe somwhere in the near future...but the X games? the x games are a joke , it's all about advertisement and using the "extreme athletes" to sell the newest products, most riders dont really realize what they are riding for ,,,, for the fun of it , where it all started quads cant bust big enough yet , but they will be able to soon , the sport is growing

I also would have to agree with freerdie. THe quads arn't that high of a level to be in the X-games. I beem riding quads for less thats two years and I can do every try from the first 4 hoavos vidios, and not one of the tricks compare to the dirtbike tricks. Poeple thats ride quads still think Nacnacs are cool. I think they should be outlawed. Heel clicks are pretty gay also. but alot of poeple think there cool and are still in the H-bomb vidios. Plus I hate to say this but not also has been the level of tricks ain't thats high, Most trick done on quads have horrible style. I beleive style is more important than the trick. I havn't seen on respectable cliffhanger on a quad. About the most stylish trick I have seen is the Holyman, and thats about it.

I know I will probly get flame for whats I said but it is true. Don't get me wrong, I love to freeride and I believe I'm pretty decent at it. But the level and more thought has to go into style of the tricks. Anybody who rides BMX would know whats I talk about.

02-20-2003, 08:10 AM
HEY!i like doin heel clickers:mad:




ill let it go this time

02-20-2003, 08:19 AM
to be honest, I love to do them too. But it ain't that cool of a trick. But if anybody does the nacnac you should be shot.

02-20-2003, 08:20 AM
yeah i dont like how they loook, when drake mcelroy does em and whips the bike they look good tho, so do no footed nacs

02-20-2003, 08:23 AM

02-20-2003, 08:27 AM
I'm about 45mins from ablany myself. Are you going to ride at walden the march 15.

02-20-2003, 09:18 AM

I signed it.

If quads were more recognized as a competitve sport I am sure the tricks would get better with time since there would be more competetion, more people interested and more sponsors.

Well I know cliffton parks ia right next to albany or some thing but I'm don't go over there much.

well even if you think quads arent good enough yet this isnt supposed to be something that happens right away. it is just something to get the people that put together the x games to think about quads in the future when we have more pros that would compete. this would be a great thing to have many signatures so that they could look at it and know that there are many people out there that would like to watch this... for them its all ratings and rating mean ppl and on this site weve got many people so if you signed this it would be great:) and thanks mx #132 for the address

I think someone should send the ppl that coordinate the x games a Huevos tape so they can see wut can be done on 4 wheels, especially by a certain guy named Dana Creech.

There are a lot of people out there doin freestyle on quads and I think that it has X-games material. I mean it's worth a shot isn't it? Also a lot of you are judging freestyle by the huevos videos. Well remember when noone knew who August Gabel was? just becaue they aren't in huevos doesn't mean that if there was a contest they wouldn't poor out. Also when we watch Huevos we need to keep in mind that this tape was from just about a yr ago. a yr is a long time. I for one am for quads at the X-games and support the evolution of freestyle. It has to start somewhere. Remember when a heel click, nac nac, WHIP were the biggest tricks on dirt dikes?

there not goin to allow just anyone into the x games they would need a qualifier of some sort, they also have to think if thier gonna draw a big enough croowd of viewers tp justify building another course, i myslef think they should have xr 50s in x games before quads cuz everyone loves 50s

02-20-2003, 04:00 PM
also ...quads arent doin anything that the bikes havenyt already done, id liek to see some quad freestyle but the average person sitting down to watch is gonna be like well the bikes are doin backflips these guys arent

bUmP 78 sigs... we need more!! ill send this stuff in on wednsday.

freeride, it seems like you are always bashing the quads and saying stuff against them. but maybe your just stating the opinion of someone who doesnt own a quad and doesnt care too?

02-21-2003, 03:35 PM
well its the truth u gotta look from the the view of someon whos not into them or doesnt ride them

flyin#5
02-21-2003, 03:50 PM
yes i know and i wasnt sure if you were doing that or what. but from experience ive had my huevos vids at some friends houses and at my uncles when some people that had never even know there were quads for jumping saw it and they were hooked. and all of them were. to people that have never seen quads getting air and all that it really get there attention. ive seen it.... and evey singe one of the people that dont own quads or ridden them have watched the whole thing in awe. thats why quads should be in the X games becuase many people see the Utility ones and dont look or see the sport ones. so when they see it on tv they say "wow" and are hooked.... remember to get addicted to exriders most of us got addicted to quads first:D

Uh i doubt we will get quads in x games anytime soon, but i sure hope they make it there some day. Dirt bike freestyle is 10 times bigger then quad. In the quad industry we got one guy with 5 riders making 1 video a year. In the dirt bike world there are a bunch of different producers with schit load of different riders each putting videos out each year.
