apart from the main uses of a BMX.. i noticed that BMX bikes are relatively cheaper thatn other lifestyle bikes and his design is cooler too. n im wondering if this bike is suitable for everyday riding like to school and nearby shops …like a student bike suffice to say..thanks!
and also comfort wise? i’ve noticed BMX riders usually dont sit one the saddle much coz of the tricks. so is it still comfortable for me to ride it one the road for quite some time?

I’ve been riding BMX on-&-off and been upsessed with the sport since I was like 7 years old.I’m 15 now and I want to try to get a giant BMX warehouse started in Waverly,Oh. I was wondering if A tony Hawk series bike by”NEXT” would be better than a mongoose to get me back into the sport and stay riding?

I live in San Diego (Specifically Encinitas) and i’ve been wanting to go to a BMX course that has a foam pit. Is there any near by?

I am able to adjust the height, but how come I can just pull out the seat/seatpost? Man I feel like a rookie. What else should a beginner know about BMX.

Or a good bmx bike somebody would recommend.I’m thinking of getting it for my birthday.

Extreme Sports are the latest craze in our culture and kids as young as four and five years old are fascinated with it. As a parent of a 16 year old who has been skateboarding and surfing since he was seven, I can tell you that it does make you nervous when they do the crazy tricks. Some people hate extreme sports and some people think they are a blessing, let’s take a closer look.

The positive side of kids being involved in extreme sports in that they are out getting exercise and the television in your living room is starting to collect dust, plus your electric bill is lower. You have probably been hoping for this to happen for awhile but you aren’t sure about the choice of sports. Although skateboarding is probably the first of the extreme sports, it is only the beginning. Some of the others that kids are really getting into these days include BMX biking and trickblading.

BMX bikes are like a regular bike on steroids, they are built heavy and tough to be able to take the punishment of all the jumps and tricks, plus they have special pegs for the feet and padding to protect the biker where they are most likely to come in contact with the bike. These bikes are designed mainly for tricks and racing and are mostly used on dirt tracks and courses.

Trickbladers use the same parks as skateboarders and wear specially designed roller blades with smaller thicker wheels and have an added feature called a grind plate to help them do tricks like sliding down rails. I know, it makes my skin crawl just thinking about it! The idea is to be able to do a lot of the same tricks performed by skateboarders.

Skateboarding is thought of as the original extreme sport beginning in the 1960s when surfers put wheels on short boards to give them a way to cross train when the surf wasn’t up. These early skateboarders are probably amazed at the way the sport has developed with the huge half pipes and long rails that you see skateboarders riding today. It just makes me cringe to watch as they slide down a handrail while standing on a skateboard but incredibly my son has done it for over nine years and never broken a bone.

If you are like me, the first time that you watch your child go sailing through the air on a jump or paddling out in eight foot surf you will feel like your heart is going to pound out of your chest and you will be cringing every time they fall but as long as they have the right safety gear and are always with a buddy they will be fine, injuries are far more common in traditional sports. Encourage your kids, these days it’s hard to get them to like anything.
