THE COME UP IS NOT THE JIMMY FUND.





This kid told me he has cancer and that his dying wish is for me to post him and his friend's video. You be the judge: if you like it, he lives. If you hate it, the cancer will cause him to die by next week.

1) Myspace was made for that kid. That douchebag developed an online shrine for himself so that 16 yr olds from across the country can tell him he's "pretty". Who makes a background for himself with his name surrounded by pastel knives? I bet you stab people all the fucking time. His photos are look at me! me ! me! and see how rebellious I am towards my parents because fuck them they can't tell me not to dye my hair or stretch my ears or ride my bike or that I have to get a job. Your parents bought you a lot of shit but payed little attention to you and this is the result. Congratulations Mom and Dad, your bun in the oven turned into a shithead on the internet.

2) The riding is pretty good, but again, you try to showcase yourself and it backfires by making you look like an asshole. The slow motion tricks that everyone else is doing and you learned because they're popular aren't anything new. There's no reason to slow mo a 270 bars over a hip because it wouldn't have been difficult to tell what you were doing at regular speed, and then you wouldn't seem so (again)look at me[and see what I just recently learned and want to showcase]. Slow mo's should be reserved for out of the ordinary tricks that may not be easily recognizable and someone may have slow mo'd on their own while watching the video. And last but not lease, the little special effects scrolling message at the end about 2 skateparks in 2 hours...way to be on that one, champ. That may be true, and it might have been a handful of cool things done in a short session, but to slooowly(and boringly) scroll an announcement that says so to the middle of the screen, and then slooowly(and boringly) scroll it up off the screen again just says lookatmeandwhatIcando!

I say make it a good week, because the cancer is eating away at you at a rapid rate. Maybe make up with Mom and Dad and apologize for being such a little shit. You don't want to die without rebuilding the bridges you burnt.

i find it funnny that this has the most comments, and the majority arent even about the riding.
clothing doesnt matter, style doesnt matter, bmx is about riding, and nothing else.
if you guys continue to post comments on anything but the riding, then your just retarded.

wow, I heard about this the other day so I figured I'd take a look. All it did was irritate me. I 've been riding for about seven years now (trust me it doesnt show). It's nice to see new kids getting into BMX and people being proud of their spot. Unfortunately this whole locals only bullshit has been going on for the past 4 or 5 years now (from what I can remember) and it's fucking lame. I didn't know that BMX (and the come up) was an opportunity to talk shit to eachother like ur on the school yard. Jake wear's girl pants, some pro riders do, some of ur friends do, and hell a lot of homos do too; some times I even wear them. If you're worried about what I'm wearing maybe your the homo? So AV said he has cancer, well he doesn't (hes just got a very odd sense of humor. but it was a joke so get over it. I've never had any problems with the livermore folk, I even rode downtown Stockton with them this weekend, and welcomed them to my old spots in the town I grew up in. I'm also still friends with Jake, yea he's not perfect. So what I'm sure your not either. Talking shit between your buddies is one thing, but to spread it around (especially publicly) and in the BMX scene is rediculous. I really wish the best to all who's lives revolve around BMX, cuz they're gonna need it. Grow up and ride ur bike for fun, if u can't handle that then get a new hobby, or life for that matter and do everyone a favor.

I'm the one who said I have cancer. It was a joke. If that wasn't obvious, then I'm sorry. I don't see what you're all arguing over. It's all bullshit. Stop wasting your time. It's really not going to get you anywhere.

And about all this "I hate you, you hate me" nonsense, shut up. Stop fucking talking shit. Get over it. You don't realize how ignorant you look trying to insult people the way we all did in 5th grade. You don't like someone? Then don't make them part of your life. It's really that simple. Trust me.

All this locals only stuff really needs to stop, too. That's bullshit. You don't own the park, and neither does anyone else. We all ride each other's home parks on a daily basis. There should never be a problem with travelling around to ride other parks, spots, etc.

You guys really need to focus on riding, since that's the reason you're on a bmx bike. What people wear, how they look, how big their head is (I love you Jake), is their prerogative. Leave that to them. You just worry about yourself. Obsessing over faggots wearing girl pants and shit like that is completely immature. You don't see people pointing out every time you say "hella" or "bro" or "get twisted brah," etc., do you? No. Why are you going to waste what short time you have pointing out people's imperfections? Just worry about surviving and being happy and living a good life. And riding your bike. In the end no one else is going to matter.

P.S. If you want to say anything to me, I have a myspace that I check here and there. You can tell me anything you have to say there. I'll even give you the link:www.myspace.com/livetorideridetolive
