Lewis Nolan May 2010 Edit

by Lewis Nolan
Jun 7, 2010 at 5:57

My latest web edit, filmed throughout the last month on my new bike! You may remember me from last year, when I published a short clip of me landing a flair - 540 tap!

I recently built up a new bike, it's an NS Suburban with mostly NS parts, I am loving it! This is my latest web edit, filmed over a few days in May.

Sort of an end of summer edit, as winter is here now and the rain is preventing me from riding park as much as I'd like! I have been riding my Trials Motorcycle a lot though, which helps me with park riding!

My plan now is to get to a foam pit! I have never ridden one before, and I am super keen to get some big box jump tricks under my belt to go with my 'tech' maneuvers! I am also really keen to start working on getting some sponsorship... and trying to get overseas and make it in the Mtb scene!

Hope you enjoy my edit! I am working on a new trick at the moment, so stay tuned for that one!

Enjoy!

 that was pretty sick, try throwing in some 3's and maybe learn tailwhips? more variations on the tricks and you will easily pick up a sponsor Smile

 i see your point :p but taps footjams and flair/flips every time would get boring, mix it up with 3's and whips and he'll be picking up sponsors Smile oh and im pretty sure its a flair 360 tap, the flair is a backflip 180...

 NO. The fact he can throw a bike around 10 times better than most BMX bandits can is just phenomenal.

 But its way easier on a bmx!
y would we try to copy those tricky bmxers with bigger wheels? its just sketchy and unnecessary!
Do what mountain bikes do best and throw some big lines on these parks!

 It's just his riding style, and when you are this fricking good at it, no need to change.

 some people feel more comfy on street bikes rather than BMX bikes. a blk mrkt riot feels better than a mutiny loosefer to me for example........


its easier on the wrists too

flag jonnyfaulkner Plus (Jun 8, 2010 at 4:35)
 Why should he change 'because bmx is easier'? doesnt make sense really, hes throwing down alot of stuff many pro bmx riders struggle with.

My only comment is... stop with the trials hops!

 MTB has its name because its versatile...bmx's are too twitchy for some poeple, preferences exist in the world you know...besides, he raises more eyebrows just because he's on a bigger bike, mtb is more of a challenge sometimes:].
