Description: Speeding a motorcycle up a dirt hill and launching into a high jump through the air, then landing safely only to do it over again is gutsy enough. Now picture someone doing that, but then also leaving the seat of the bike to briefly perform a riding trick while airborne. That's what "freestyle motocross" is all about, and the best performers in this gnarly new sport go for the gold in this recap of the 1999 Gravity Games held in Providence, Rhode Island. The filmed action is often heart stopping, and the video also benefits from a narrative format that weaves profiles of the young riders in with clips of them in competition. The footage of riders performing their routines is often startling, as the tricks they perform "during air" definitely fall into the category of "don't even think about doing this at home." For example, during a "cliff hanger" a motorcycle rider, while sailing upward during a jump, rises from his seat and flies above the motorcycle, holding on only with his feet hooked under the handlebars, before settling back down on the seat to make his landing. The camera work in this video is first-rate (it was originally televised by NBC), and the judicious use of slo-mo highlights underline how perilous yet graceful freestyle motocross can be. --Robert J. McNamara
 


Great Video

This video is one of the best out there because it has great camera work and Tony Hawk does some sweet stuff in it. If your not a skater then you'll probably hate it, or you wont understand why people like it so much, but if you like skating, tihs is a must have video!

Travis Pastrana great Rider

Dude this video rules if you love travis pastrana and liked him in the 2000 supercross games then you will love him in this video. Great footage of him all over the place. You will love it. And for chicks who love these guys you'll love this video give it to your boyfriend he will love you.
