Fantastic stuff, a wee bit about him and the Vid here.

Wow, some great moves, I like the two tree rides. I know alot of these areas too.
Makes me want to look out my bmx (from thr 80's) but I'm sure I would do myself an injury now.

 

[MrGrumpy]

yes I have too many scars from the 80`s and my obsession with table tops

 

[Landslide]

I've seen many a flair (the backflip off the tree), but that riding along the top of the railings just amazed me.
He's got some really nice lines too, it's not just about the tricks...

That youtube vid is just amazing, and I ended up clicking on more of the links. What control.

I was going to have an early night last night then I found this and ended up following the links too

Nice very nice, for the first minute was thinking Dylan Tremblay is smoother and then he just lets rip and I sat there agog.

I came across some of his earlier work

The BBC interview is down on the Shore in Leith - my neck of the woods. I cycle along that street (on my route to/from work) where he's cycling around the reporter - you'll see cars parked on it when there shouldn't be; someone's broken off one of the bollards that keep it traffic-free and the motons have started moving back in.

The film's reminded me that I must phone the council about getting that fixed...

Aluminum and very light, big tyres, especially rear and a BB guard plus other specialist bits and pieces.

The back tyre looks a little soft ... is that a technique? or is it just when he lands on it from a height?

He has an amazing lack of injuries for the level of stunts he is performing... obviously knows how to bounce.

 

[Cubist]

That chain looks a bit slack too

Sorry, followed the links and found this. Needed to post it, I've just woken the dog up by laughing out loud:

Twat.

 

[Noodley]

Twat.

Exactly.

 

[dudi]

very nice... very impressive indeed.

I'm going to move to edinburgh if that's the fun they have on their commutes!

 

[Melvil]

Wow. Very impressive. I think it adds something to live in Edinburgh, see all the places he's doing his tricks in - cos the stuff he was doing I wouldn't even have dreamt was possible. Very very good handling. I've been in Macdonald cycles a few times so probably have seen him...strange how someone with that level of skill probably looks like any other joe. What a legend.
