I think, who gives a fuck?

I feel it's equally as relevant as someone making a big deal if I switched grips on my scooter...

Troof.

Also, Hoffman has ridden brakeless forever, no one make a big deal about that. Didn't he do the Megaramp brakeless?

Thats not it at all, for me it makes everything easier cause when i take my hands off i am not afraid of landing on the lever, the only thing i would like them for is whips no foot cans and stalls

Brakeless is a completely different feeling. Its fun though. You also get more dialed from it because you have to be more dialed. It aslo makes you cool and street so f-ck off while I go slam my seat no homo, paint my bike black, and get gigantic bars I probably don't need.

yeah brakeless is a different feeling and everything, but its not for his sorta style you know.

riding brakeless makes you have some good control, good feel, and your bike looks clean, but to do it for what? everyone a couple years ago was into dialed as fuckk brakes and now everyone want to rip em off to look badass.

mirra said in an interview he had to relearn a grip of tricks.

Nick I did it because my wheel was out of aligned and wouldn't spin because it was rubbing. It was really weird at first, but after I got used to it it was a good feeling. I will admit that if there wasn't a brakeless "trend" then I probably just wouldn't have ridden. It kind of made me feel accomplished though, like I'm good enough at riding to not need brakes sort of thing. I don't think its a bad thing, and i don't understand why people hate on it, we're trying something else. I know I didn't do it to be like Chase or some other OG rider. It was somebody elses idea, but so was riding bikes in general, so we need to stop complaining.
