RE: StuntFest Pittsburgh 2008
i am not at ALL tryin to bag on stunters as i WISH i could have that type of control of my bike and their stuff is really fun to watch...
but why....oh why is it that most stunters wear primarily ONLY a helmet and wear t-shirts, or better yet cut-off t-shirts....
i understand the speeds aren't as high, but a 10 mph fall while standing on a bike on asphalt is still going to chew you up like a cheese grater...i mean...is it they just don't care or is it not cool or what...honestly it stumps me...
like i said, not baggin on the stunters, it just seems that they are at such a high risk of falling (even at low speeds) that they would want protection...
oh well...
cool photos!

It was a good time there though.. they are alot of fun to watch but 2 hours of circle wheelies gets really boring after a while.

yeah like i said, i am not gettin on the stunting aspect, just the dumbness of not wearing gear...even a mesh jacket at those low speeds would prevent so much pain if they fell...oh well....their skin i guess (or lack thereof when they fall)....
i can imagine circle wheelies would get boring...as much as i like to see stunting, there are only so many stunts that the typical stunter does and it gets redundant pretty fast....now...coordinated stunting is cool...when you see a show put on where the stunts and the interaction is planned, that's cool, but it doesn't happen much at these events i would think....
any ways...back to work!
