I agree with Sean. Jordan, have you ever seen guys like Chase Hawk rip a bowl? So good and definitely more real then quad whip 360 backflip super man over a spine or something. You want tricks go to the Dew Tour, XG is a super prestigious contest, and it shouldn't be just about the tricks you can do, it should be the tricks you can do with style and flow, and then throwing them over something really unique. Superpark is going to be this, at least it will be more then regular park.

Guys, I don't (and neither does most of the public) watch the X-Games to see the lookbacks and inverts and stylish riding you can see by logging onto youtube. I want to see new, progressive, mind-blowing tricks that have never been done before. The way I see it, video parts are for the styly, original tricks and runs, X-Games and other contests are for pulling your best tricks.

And personally, i kinda find guys like chase hawk and mike aitken a bit boring. doing the same 3 tricks over dirt jumps gets a bit repetitive, tbh. thus making seeing new tricks, like quad whips, more interesting for me to watch.
