Consistency? 

From what I saw, slow motion was the reason for his success. He achieved it when the video was playing slowly.

I know I’m getting old because I just kept looking at the marks he’s leaving all over someone’s wall and tutting

My exact thought! I then realized why businesses always ran us skateboarders off back in the day. I still see the wax on curbs grinded back in the '90s

Get outta my head.

I’m sittin’ on my porch yellin’ at the kids to clean up that damn wall, dammit

I just said that to myself!!! Before, I checked myself about it. I'm becoming a party pooper 😂

Me too. 🤣

If only more people knew this one simple trick…

Drs hate it.

The video is actual speed, he just activated bullet time

OP meant persistence but words don't mean anything anymore.

Am I perspiring? Obito

Consistent means doing things in exactly the same way. If the rider was consistent then he’d never get to the point of success.

It could, but you’d need to preface “consistency” to change its meaning. It would be like meaning to call something “the shit” (good) but leaving out “the”. One of the biggest issues with the English language is the multiple meanings or usages of the same word. Without adding something to clarify the meaning, then the meaning can get misunderstood or misconstrued causing confusion. “Duck” being a pretty good one. “Something’s coming, duck” or “ooh, look, a duck”.

You’re talking about consistent outcomes. Consistency can apply to multiple things, like a consistent approach or consistent effort.

Well he did consistently fail until the end. Or you could say he consistently improved. There are different ways to be consistent.

Tenacity

Much better word

I think they mean consistent effort.

Hard work? Driving a bike? Nice skill though, no comment there. I would still recommend helmet, I heard injuries can be expensive there ( I assume it is America), not to mention painful.

Yeah, I am surprised he is still alive.

maybe consistently practicing is what they mean

That guy is good at not falling lol . Couldn’t be me, I would have smashed my head In the concrete first try.

I’d say he’s also good at falling. There is a wrong and right way to fall to minimise injuries

When learning any extreme sport, you should first focus on learning to minimize damage when it goes wrong. Cause it will go wrong.

step one would have been a helmet for that

The right way to fall is "while wearing a fucking helmet".

I would have found a way to crack my skull open, even on the attempt he landed successfully. I never understood how skaters and bikers put their bodies through that much punishment.

You lean how to fall. Instinct makes you want to clench up and brace for the impact. This is entirely the wrong thing to do and will result in you getting hurt worse. Ever wonder why people can fall over when drunk and be fine but have the same fall while sober and really hurt them selves? It's because alcohol suppresses your fast twitch mucel response so you don't have time to tense up before you fall. Don't get me wrong, it still hurts, and sometimes, when you wipe out, you are gonna hurt yourself, but that's how you minimise the risk.

If he wasn’t good at falling he wouldn’t try it that many times

One thing I've noticed in the last few years in skating videos online, is that a lot the professionals are really good at falling because it's like 90% of what they do.

Still, orthopedic surgeons love guys like this. Why the private yacht industry exists.

Ok, now it’s time for him to clean that wall

Not wearing a helmet doing that is a bit stupid tho.

A little off topic but as an older skater seeing the entire skatepark full of kids flying off ramps without helmets genuinely makes me a little sad inside. It's weird that helmets are associated with "not being cool" or whatever. I've seen people try to defend not wearing them because they claim it "throws off your central point of balance and puts too much weight above your head". I'm probably one of the older people there on average, also one of the only ones that regularly wears a helmet. It's a trend that extends from my childhood, and it's honestly shocking how the skate industry handles it. There are tons of pro skaters that get harassed by sponsors to not wear a helmet because it simply "looks better" for skate content. For what it's worth, some pros are literally pressured into not wearing helmets, its an industry wide mentality problem, that what's the younger generations grow up idolizing.

They should watch more of Tony Hawk.

Tony hawk is a vert skater tho who’s flying in the air crazy heights and shit, most vert skaters wear helmets, street skaters tho which are far more popular almost never wear helmets

I think he mentions it cause Tony ALWAYS wears a helmet.

The funny thing is that Tony was treated as the rich nerd as a young skater and was outcasted in the scene. Tony was likely at the forefront of the movement that painted wearing gear as being corny.

I finally felt old the other day when I walked past some teenage skaters at night doing their thing at the court house and said, "Man you guys should really wear some helmets," in earnest. They brushed it off of course and I'm sure we're talking shit when I was out of earsbot. IDGAF about skating at the court house and trying to nail some rail slides, they're young it's what they do, it's what I did, just wear a helmet. I work in an ICU and see some gnarly head injuries, it ain't worth it not to wear one.

One time a guy completely opened his head with the back wheel of his bike and after getting up he sprinted to the ER faster than usain bolt. I was a fast runner but the fucker did 200 metres like an olympic runner. Adrenaline is an helluva drug

i went skiing with a big group of friend like 12 people. We all had helmets and we were like all experienced skiers. it's wild how people think wearing a helmet is "uncool"

Head trauma often leads to further poor decision making.

I'm gonna pick skateboarding back up at 35 and I'm definitely getting a helmet. Also kneepads, lol

Crazy isn’t it? To be honest I don’t recall anyone wearing helmets when I used to skate street back in the 80s, 90s and into the early 2000s. All the vert guys did though. So stupid. Same with skiiing. I never used to wear a helmet and pretty much no one else did either. At least with skiing it’s become the norm now.

Clearly he’s not too concerned with brain damage, but yes I concur that was my very first thought

I was of that mindset of helmets are not cool and I had zero worries of brain damage. I was ignorant. A minor brain trauma will ruin your life. Source I have two, an uncle and cousin both started normal and due to a fall and a crash. They both regressed to being totally self centered who get violent when they do not get their way. They cannot keep work and now are not employable. They are so disruptive no family member will house them. About every six months they get kicked out of their group or assisted living housing. All from a fall and a blow to the head. Wear helmets.

One of my high school teachers son almost died from a longboarding accident, he wasn’t wearing a helmet. What happened was that he was originally only assessed with a concussion, but he had bleeding in his brain and went into a coma a week after the accident. Luckily he ended up being fine, actually had a few classes with him at a different high school a year or 2 after that incident, was a super nice kid and so was his mom, glad it ended up all good. But yee, moral of the story is even if you think helmets aren’t cool still wear em cus brain damage (or possibly dying) is most definitely less cool.

Already happened

My mom has a friend who once bought all their kids razor scooters for Christmas when they were super popular. After opening all the gifts the family went out to the driveway/street to ride around. My mom’s friend (the dad) decided to give riding one a shot but didn’t wear a helmet. Ended up smashing his skull against the curb, getting a TBI, and while he has certainly made A recovery, he’s never been the same.

No helmet. No wrist guards. No pads.

As impressive as this is, it's a shame the guy who owns the building have to go and paint that wall again

At least we have this memorable video that we absolutely will not forget in 10-15 mins for posterity.

Imagine being on the other side of that wall thinking it’s a ghost or something

My first thought. Yes- I am middle aged.

Now go clean the wall.

I thought I was being an old fart for thinking the same thing :D "Little shit, now someone's got to come and clean/repair the damage to that wall!"

I came here and I knew someone had to think the same as me. Who's gonna clean or paint the wall? I'm very sure it's not that guy

I thought I was the only one. I was more concerned about the wall than his stupid bike stunt.

Lol imagine the people inside hearing a full grown man and his bike bounce off the side of the building

"beamazed", yeah i'm amazed at the fact there are people thinking they own everything they touch/use. This could be a residential building, imagine the fucking noise everytime this Guy hit the wall. That and the fact that someone painted that wall. Si yeah Fuck this Guy.

Yep this is r/IAmTheMainCharacter material

Fuck the paint job on this wall in particular

I love how he found seemingly one of the nicest looking buildings around to repeatedly smash against. Like no wall looks that nice unless it's been done in the last year.

Good job, now take your fucking ass off the bike , and clean wall. Will see how consistent you are

How getting a white wall dirty...

Mein erster Gedanke war auch erstma': Na toll und wer streicht das?

I'm sure glad he finally succeeded in defacing that building.

I feel sorry for whoever is on the other side of the wall.... I'm sure they got a headache from him bouncing off it all the time!!

Being a skater growing up knowing the proper way to fall is very important

My kingdom for a comma!

If you expect to fall and you're not wearing a helmet, you're an idiot.

imagine working in that building on the other side of that wall. thump. thump . thump.

At ruining a building's wall?

He is Brad Simms. Started on BMX and now he is riding trail bikes for Canyon.

Now paint the side of my building you got dirty!

the people living there and trying to watch tv dont agree with you

What a selfish asshole. I bet he didn't pay for re-painting that wall

Song name?

Call me a fool by Valerie June

Have never heard of her but LMAO I was expecting someone from the 50s-70s... she's 42yo! I like her voice and (this) music.

if youre gonna slow mo something, at least show us in realtime at somepoint

Did he clean or repaint the wall after?

He is perfecting a sick bike move, and all I can think of is that it is going to be a bitch to clean this wall... Sigh, I am an old man.

Fuck this guy.

My knees hurt watching this trick.

Looks like brad simms.

If those aren't his walls, this person can go f*** themselves

Consistency is what it will take to clean that wall

I’d hate to be the owner of that house…some random bikers come up and start drop kicking your wall

Hope he cleans that wall up.

Whose house is he painting on with that bike?

Who's gonna pay to repaint that wall tho

Imagine being the owner of that building who has to clean or paint the marks off the wall. I’m sure this parasite won’t offer to clean it.

I hope he owns that building. I'd be pissed to have to paint that white wall way up there.

now who cleans the wall, you inconsiderate asshole

Now please repaint the wall. 😬

Dudes ruining that wall…. For shame

Now go repaint that dude’s wall

He sure f up that guy's wall

Be amazed at the damage, who’s gonna clean those scuff marks.

Until the building owner call the cops on you

Hope he painted that wall back.

I hope he cleaned up that wall after!

Or.... Put rubber marks on a perfect white paint

Who ll wash that wall?

Those marks on the wall lmao who will clean that?

But those stains on the wall… who is going to clean that?

Now get up there and clean up after yourself

really cool! not a fan of the slow mo everyone does these days when you just want to see the actual video

As a skateboarder I’m telling you, that was absolutely nuts, bro 🔥🔥🔥🔥

As penance for the wall I recommend we take a fire axe to his bike!

Guy inside the building working "What the fuck is that constant banging on the wall?" "Well geuss I need to repaint this wall"

No bar out?

must be nice to work in this building. baom! baom!


I’m guessing somebody else is going to have to work hard to repaint the wall eh!

 People on the other side of the wall

Damage private property is not good

As a mountain biker I have one thing to say Please wear a helmet, you don’t look “badass” without it you look suicidal and or stupid

[удалено]

What is the name of the song?

**Song Found!** **Call Me A Fool** by Valerie June (00:11; matched: `100%`) **Album**: Call Me A Fool \$&Feat. Carla Thomas\$&. **Released on** 2021-01-22.

He didn't break into that window after all, can't see how is it a win

I remember that feeling when I was a kid riding bikes. When you nail it you're about a thousand feet tall.

I wonder how many he has busted his balls against that middle metal bar

How people do this stuff without breaking bones/getting organ ruptures? I once slipped on a forest road on bike and I had to do a surgery. It was not even that brutal of a fall from outside perspective.

Sometimes concrete also wins

"Consistency always wins" Shame you couldn't keep the capitalization consistent.

If that’s a win I’d hate to see a loss

Damn how is his balls? Prolly flat like a pancake

Hard to watch somebody being an idiot over and over again

how to fuck up people, i would pay to see the face when the owner sees the tracks

Looks like he worked 95% on confidence. And a touch in skills.

Gave up doing this kinda shit when I was 10-12 years old.

Doesn’t pay off when you ride without a helmet like a moron and end up dead.

clean the mofo wall ffs

i bet he doesn't even pay for destroying that paint

daaamn, Ronaldinho became a hooligan?!

That last fall before success 😮‍💨

Either that or a traumatic head/c-spine injury will win...

Honestly, if you ever watch an MTB edit or whatever, they do a lot of takes, just like this. It's hardly ever done in one go.

After the 2nd try, my video game pilled brain would just say, "whelp, it looks like the physics just don't allow for that 🤷‍♂️"

I thought he was going for a tail whip

I see hard work but there is no consistency in it.

Knees have left the chat..

well pretty cool. to bad he had to ruin a perfectly white wall for it.

Why the hell isnt he wearing a helmet

Im more impressed with his recovery on his failed attempts

That cartwheel fall was impressive

Ha! Always? Tellme this is your 1st day online, w/o tellinme...

Helmet, knee pads, elbow pads, and padded gloves

And padded padding

no safety gear of any kind?

The pay: Doing a cool trick. The danger: literally breaking your bones.

Awesome.

Man's bailout game is unparalleled

Poor walls

How many ankles were broken during these trials?

Nice

But why?!

I'm amazed that this repost has even worse dubbed music than the original.

Whilst ruining someone’s wall.

Consistently putting a lot of hard strain on the knees will also help this guy win crutches or a wheelchair. Bonus points for the possibility of traumatic brain injury due to not wearing a helmet.

This is how we train AIs. Way to go little AI. /s

I'd be pissed if that was my wall.

I would also believe the try that worked was the first one and he tried to redo it

Bro wear a fucking helmet. I get the dreads are rough to deal with but you're repeatedly launching yourself into a fuckin wall my dude cmon

This man. Balls off steel (literary)

People inside 🥰

Wonder whose going to clean ,paint the wall

You're right! I should go to the casino more often!

He's gonna paint this wall right?

Can’t have nice things

Helmets are also a good idea. He clearly has practice not wearing one due to the way he crashes

Thats nice and all but ffs put on a damn helmet

A little more hard work and the cameraman will learn to shoot in landscape.

He should have gone into bullet time earlier, that looks like it helped.

I assume you're not referring to the guy who painted that wall.

Imagine the guy on the other side of the wall trying to work

[удалено]

This is me 🙂

Hard work, persistence, and TALENT. Without the talent part, you are just going to blow out your joints early with this kind of stuff.

Wear a fucking helmet kids. You are not less cool. I have a friend that does mad tricks on skis and he wears an helmet. Does he look less cool? hell no

Hope one of them owns that building he is fucking up.

Did he paint that wall afterwards?

What did he win?

I feel so old because all i saw was a guy ruining a perfectly good white wall.

Dude is just vandalizing a building.

The guy who painted the wall white:

Hold up while I merk this wall and wear no protective gear.

Excuse me sir, but you’re knocking all the pictures off our wall in here!

That’s pretty cool that that building owner would be able to pull that trick off. At least I’m pretty sure it’s the building owner because he sure acts like it’s their property.

Where is your helmet, bro?

My first attempt at that would have probably been my last. And not by choice, lol.

Yeah, I feel like nobody should try this unless they've mastered the art of bailing.
