  1. ahhhh im so mad!
    k so heres how it went down, i was out riding at the park about 1/4
    mile from my house. i was having an awesome day, just riding around
    having a blast on my new tire and everything...and then i hop up some
    stairs, turn around and go to hop down, i land and SNAP! there goes my
    flippin axle. ugh.
    not to mention that i landed on my boys pretty hard. but man..im not
    happy about this.
    ugh..man....im thinking that i might be able to finagle my parents into
    helping me purchase a new uni now though..
    im suprised that lasted as long as it did though.

    ok i have been riding for 3 years, doing tricks for 6 months and being
    sorta hardcore for 3 months (before that the only trick i did was a
    hop-180 to backwards riding or a spin off of a wall or something

  4. yea,it is pretty rotten luck..but hey life happens right?
    it gave me a chance to go hiking today, which turned into a run through
    the woods. i havent done that for a while and i enjoyed it.
    im just working on talking my parents into loaning me some dough for a
    new uni.

    and as for the axle, it was just the stock hub and everything that came
    with my torker when i got a few years back. im actually really suprised
    it lasted this long, but the axle has been twisting and i knew it was
    going to happen soon. the metal was just really fatigued. but what can
    ya do.

  5. That sucks man. I had my older norco go on me a couple months ago just
    hooping off two stacked picnic tables. What kind of torker was it?
    I'm riding a LX which is hardly an LX anymore. Got a double walled rim
    and a maxxis creepy crawler.😄

    Are these flippin axles specially designed for crank flip tricks?
    Maybe that's why I can't do crank flips, cause I don't have a flippin
    hub with flippin cranks?
