why is he "mike the knife" lol????
is it because his kite and lines cut through the air smoothly and quickly to get to that perfect 12 oclock angle for a massive dangle, just like a hot knife through butter?????? is that why?

Not sure exactly of the origin 'The Knife' nickname. I have seen the guy kill it at Woodies all summer with some serious tech.

ROWDY, sounds pretty lame to me to diss someone else and not back it up to show the ability level you are dissing them from.

You lame, not vain.

pretty sure doing pullups requires a pretty small ability level, if you can boost you could diss him, same consequences involved.

i would rather be hated for telling people how it is than be loved for giving people props for pretending to be something they are not.

p.s. why are you so worried about it? is he your cloud dancing boyfriend or something?

Never heard of him ROWDY, just can't see the point in saying people are doing pull ups, they don't have the kite low enough to be hard core, and all that other ****e.

It just makes you guys look like wanna be heros.

If the guy wants to pull a trick like that and has a cool shot of it, good on him.

What's consequence got to do with it anyway? Kite to have fun your way, if that's risk of pain, great, but not everyone's into that.

Didn't see a single pull-up in that video, all I saw was that KGB to blind. But I'm sure you can pull that off too Rowdy.

BTW Sci, last time I check the month starts with the 1st, not the 7th[}:)]

If it wasn't obvious from the start i was just having a dig. i guess it wasn't.
In any case a pullup is still a pullup, i would rather see a board off.

p.s. posting that vid really didnt help him, i thought he rode better than that from watching earlier footage on his site, but all i saw there was alot of cleverly disguised low altitude pullups. he rides like kevin langree.

Yeah no he's a crap rider that's why he was sponsored by JN and now Nobile and ended like 3rd of 2nd in a PKRA event.



Furthermore he's a really nice guy. I'm not sure why you would have a problem with him Carbine.

Well they've clearly got it way wrong sponsoring all these dud riders who only do pull ups and never any riding of 'consequence'.

Obviously you've got the walk to back your talk, so you must be the rider these companies should be looking for.

Are we clear?

why would i wanna ride for them?? its obvious that most of those companys have asolutley no idea.
Look at dre one of if not the best rider in the world, he has to wear straps in ads and pictures, even though he never rides them or promotes them, you think he thinks they are the future??? no. you think the company cares?? no. companys will push the sport in what ever way they like. of course they could have it wrong. even the world champ is stepping up to the tee now and really riding hard and legit, its time the companys and world tour did the same, however i highly doubt they will, when its all about the coverage and cash.
They sponsor the rich kids who have the money to travel the world doing pullups. they are intrested in wowing the public and getting coverage, they are not intrested in progression of the sport (most companys).
