by: adam |

John Dye hit me up about a feature on Bicycle Union where one of their riders runs through a big list of trends and states wether they have been guilty of them or not. Kinda fun… I filled it in after the jump, let’s see yours after the jump!

How do you plead?

Skinny bars? Very guilty when I started riding.
Chain wallet? Oh yeah.
Front brake? Never.
No brake? Since day one.
4 piece bars? First 5 years riding.
Pegs? 4 pegs or death.
Pegless? Once in a blue moon.
Motor bike chain? I had it when I was 15 and I got one now.
Hip hop jeans? Not really, I had JNCO’s but that was before I started riding.
Girls jeans? Not Guilty, no way
Elbow pads? Not guilty
Peg chinks? Used to be really guilty, still guilty.
5 inch pegs? I think they’re 4.5″.
Dickies pants? Fuck yeah.
New Era? Once in a while.
Studded belt? Guilty.
Roof drop? Not guilty (no surprise!)
Half barspin? Yessir.
Kick flips/Crank flips? I filmed one yesterday.
3/4 length long sleeve? Yep, but it was a Terror shirt, not a BMX brand.
Gyro? Not guilty
Nokon cable? Not guilty.
Manual to 180? Always.
Hand plant? Not guilty.
Unlook back? Not guilty.
Bandana? Not guilty
Multiple foot jams? Not guilty
Dread locks? Not guilty.
Roll out half cab-Parrick style? I’m too young to even know what this means.
Roll out sliders? I don’t really know any other way.
Emo fringe? Not guilty.

    what is the parrick half cab?

    im guessing when you pedal out of it?

  • ahhhhh!

    so he dies every blue moon?

    Parrick hop is when you hop out of your roll back. A halfcab on flat kind of thing. Watch nowhere fast.

  • sean_murphy

    if you have lived through these some of these trends and never stopped, are you still guilty?

    and I dont think Parrick could ever roll back thats why he did that hop, apparently I missed the part where that became a trendy trick.

    I didnt see coaster brake on there, so I guess Im ok on that one.

  • evan

    trend: “3. Current style; vogue: the latest trend in fashion.” I believe this is the type of trend there talking about, and if this thing is supposed to tell you if your trendy or not its just saying everyone is trendy so why bother even filling it out. Although I can see that a lot of the questions are clearly trends.
