HOLY SENSE OF SCALE, BATMAN!


Meanwhile in the Bat Cave, I’m churning through edits and images for the book Pro BMX Skills. Check out this sequence of Chris Powell at the Olympic Training Center.














Click for big.

Of note:

  1. This stepup is huge! 30 feet out, three feet up. On an unforgiving little 20”.


  2. Watch how Chris loses speed in the air, then gains speed on the backside.


  3. Chris is the original all-American badass. Not only does he rock this style, he’s also working toward his law degree.


He’s also been extremely helpful with the book. Super pro. Thanks Chris!

    It is interesting to see how quickly he drops the front wheel to match the landing angle – he starts to get into position the moment he leaves the lip.
