Capital BMX – A Call For Action

10cmckerrow

The salty dudes at Capital have posted a short editorial on the upwards / downwards no-hander debate. I’ll remain neutral and let you guys chime in with your two cents via the comments. Click the photo to read the article and let BMX know what you think (anonymously, of course). Upwards? Downwards? Who even cares? Voice your opinion.

“I’m not sure when it happened, I’m not sure at which point Satan crawled out of hell and atrophied the trapezoidal muscles of every trendy BMX kid out there making it impossible to do anything with their arms but droop them down below their knees but it has left a lasting nightmare in my subconscious. Dangly and nasty, those jetting wrists stab punching me in the soul with every shitty extension. “

    suicide no handers are for men. discussing if your hands should point up while you do your ugly trick is for ladies. keep old school no handers on dirt or ramps… enough of this down stairs shit.

    Best no hander ever is in the intro to Seek & Destroy, Jarred dips his front down so low and just lets them loose. Sorry but no handers are tricks to be done with landings,not down stairs. Its gross,weird,and half the time eww. If your gonna jump some stairs keep your hands on,or spin the bars.

    i hate this new trend of hating people who are following a different trend.

  • http://Website ride bikes

    Nathan Williams started the trend, but I heard he got into an accident or something as a kid and cant lift his arms up past shoulder height so that’s a pretty legit reason.

    article was simply amazing

  • http://Website STKM.

    the trick is a no hander not a touch footer. its wrong. would you consider doing a flatground barspin a trick no. would an unclicked turndown be a trick no. so why should a downward tuck no hander be a trick. the trick is ugly anyway and on top of that some of the people don’t even do them right.

    dont be jealous cuz u dont have the skill to throw them down.everything else looks like shit

    sometimes up looks really retarded if you actually look at it. a little bit above straight out to your side looks best imo, and downward tucks are actual tricks and they dont look half bad so stop bitching. also, nathan williams is the shit
