Clearly his upbringing had to do with him to be a racist .

Racism in BMX? Are you kidding me people?

I don't think race has to do with anything at all in action sports. If your good your good
-

Everyone calm down. He's not making excuses. He's talking of his own personal struggle and experience. Race may mean nothing to you (or at least you think it doesn't), but depending on how you grew up, where you grew up, and with whom you grew up with, it could actually be a thing.
I ride freeride/downhill with a bunch or Latino, Black (US, West Indies), Middle Eastern, and a couple of White dudes (US, Russia, and Eastern Europe). You should see the looks we get when we're talking our bikes through The Bronx, or if we all show up at Mountain Creek in mass, or when we shred Prospect Park in BK. You get looks of admiration from some, dirty looks from others...and to be fair, some people don't give a shit whatsoever...
On the mountain, I've heard people say shit like, "Why are they here?". I once overheard someone say, "Those bikes must be stolen. How can those guys afford those bikes?"
So it's all about your experience...and depending on what that is...race sometimes plays into one's development, confidence, and exposure. -
Fucking love nigel.
-
Maybe he should start scootering.. I think he would fit in more.
-
This style and philosophy is very much like Parkour, just with a bike. 12:08 I've literally said almost exactly the same words a million times.
-
Is he a half vampire? 😜
-
I'm Hispanic and I bmx. All my bmx friends are Hispanic, idk if it's a white boy sport
-
this bitch ass nigga annoys the fuck out of me. theres riders putting their heart and soul into bmx and this pussy is talking shit about racism within the bmx community. i will never understand why the mainstream media thinks he is somewhat relevant or even a decent rider.
