I used to race back in the 90's. I got hurt so many times though, so I had to quit. Sorry, no GoPro vids, lol. My last bike was a '97 YZ125. Sounds like what you are riding in your video. BTW if you mount the GoPro on your chest instead of the helmet, the video looks 100x more realistic and the jumps look bigger to the audience.

Watch this video. He uses a helmet mount for the first 2 minutes and then goes to a chest mount for the rest.

Never rode a lot of dirt bikes but i grew up riding 3 and 4 wheelers. Used to love it had yamaha 350warrior and rode some pretty nasty banshees on alcohol. Lots of fun trying not to slide off the seat lol.

Sounds a lot like where I'm from in East Texas. Everyone has a quad, bike, or mud truck. Had trails for miles and miles thru the woods and country. It was so much fun I miss it a lot. Where I live now I'd have to drive 40 miles and pay to ride. Back home it was basically my back yard.:(

I was thinking about getting a chest mount, but if I ever fell, the camera would eat shit lol. I've been riding for 13 years and never fell on my head, so I trust it on my helmet haha.

This is why you don't hit the power band and don't let off before a jump... I didn't fall, but close. You can see my foot in the video, that just shows you the front end was pretty high up.

Here's a video of me trying to the triple, almost ate shit when I tried it the second time.

Been riding since I was about 10 years old.

First bike was a '79 Suzuki RM 80 (just sold it a couple years back after letting it sit for 6+ years)

Had a '81 Suzuk RM 100 I shared with my brother... stopped riding once I turned 16 because cars became a bigger priority, then after college I picked up this..

Old school bikes lol, my dad has a 1999 CR125. The motor blew up on him at least 3 times. It was the crank that was bad and every time he rebuilt it, he never fixed it so it kept blowing it up.
