Used Product For 2 Years or more Strengths Amusing first section, good for beginners Weaknesses Pitched at complete beginners Similar Products Used Contact/Evolve/Everything the internet has to offer :P Review If you can backhop, you are above the level of this video. Even if you can't, this isn't the greatest thing you could watch. It's more of a tutorial than actually seeing what the Mart's can do. As long as you know that, it's fine, though.

Used Product For 1 Year Strengths informative for more stylie things Weaknesses old -- blurry cinematics, bad music Similar Products Used MANIFESTO!!!! stomping grounds, island style Review More urban stuff and better music... cheesy chase scene in the beginning is brutal. part where they teach the thug, clad in black is horrible. the use of those stunt dummies is awful... i'll never understand EU humor! lol its a pretty good video, always fun to learn new stuff or improve on the stuff u already know -- wish it wasn't VHS...

Used Product For 6 Months Strengths informative, funky english accents lol Weaknesses the cinematic chase scene in the beginning is lame Similar Products Used Evolve,Island Trials,kranked series, Review For a simple informative vid, this is prime... the chase ghetto afro scene in the beginning is pretty stupid, but it teaches basics, which is where everybody should start anyway... if u can already lurch, great, but learning nvr realli stops w/ trials, new techniques can b learned w/ ease. more urban riding n all around trials sequences would b nice tho

Used Product For 2 Years or more Strengths Good for beginners Weaknesses might be boring for above sport riders Similar Products Used Down videos, Contact, Paradise Found, etc. Review Bought this video after seeing it being played in a bike store. Very helpful for beginners who want to learn how to pedal kick, trackstand, back hop, etc. Instruction from Martin and Martin of England and the famous Hans Rey.
