Tom Nose Mannie Bail

Nothing to say. This is epic. John really caught that OH SHIT moment when you have to bail out of a nose manual. Anyone that does these knows the feeling!

Thanks John! Much more to come.

    I’m assuming the he wasn’t in the straps here, or we be seeing a gnarly face plant. ouch!

    I was super siked on my hold fast’s when i first got them, and still love them for city riding, but when I’m doing tricks or just riding round in circles backwards i never use foot retention.

    He sure was in the straps. We all ride in the foot retention. That’s the point. Once you figure out how to bail, it’s not an issue.
