As of November 1 I’ll be playing only fixed axle for a year. Since that’s just about a week from now, I thought it’d be fun to document some of my best fixed axle tricks so that I can look back in a year and remember how it felt at the beginning of this adventure.

Also, this is my first time using my new GoPro – I’m sure I’ll get better with it!

Hope you enjoy!

Subscribed.

That’s pretty amazing. Didn’t realize all that was possible with a fixed axle. It’ll be awesome to see how far you progress.

The horizons of fixed axle play have expanded dramatically in the past few years. Check out Drew Tetz, Ed Haponik, and Kyle Nations on youtube if you want to see some of the incredible directions it’s heading.
