By HOTOKE you mean Yoshiki Uchino ? think i’ll use a nickname like Beefcake or something.
Joe Miller needs to step down a class. Honestly man reaching for the stars is one thing, but your looking at the next galaxy.
Nothing US wise trumps Voodoo. Voodoo is much more than a contest. The city, vibes and riding makes it all one great experience.
How many of you bloggers are actually going to go?
in reply asdf, i would love to go, jomopro is an amazing contest! just can’t afford it, so thats me out! I was expecting a bigger rider list if I am honest! Stoked Hotoke is competing there!
asdf..why don’t you tell that “step down” stuff to bo wade. and are you goin? if not don’t ask.
Joe Millers name is not in that list ,what you on about ?
you may as well tell Jumelin to step down as his tricks are all front wheel and the same short moves now ,hell just enjoy the ride quit bitchin,Bo rules they all do its good for the sport to see many styles and riders in the pro class ,just enjoy it lifes to short.
