why has this been posted…. hes on a bike not skates…..
November 26th, 2006 at 11:40 pm
it should say, “this has nothing to do with rollerblading at all”.
November 26th, 2006 at 11:41 pm
who cares if he’s on a bike, hes bloody awesome!!!! i knew dave mirra was good but iv never seen a video of him before!!!!! that 720 backflip was amazing, and the tailspin to pegstall!!!
November 26th, 2006 at 11:54 pm
yea. sure he’s good. but he doesnt belong on a rollerblading website. just doesnt work. if he isnt on rollerblades, or atleast biking with rollers. then take him off.
November 27th, 2006 at 12:00 am
right hes good, and that vid was good
but
yeah he dnt belong on such an awsome site like this, this is for rollerbladers!!! brap brap
November 27th, 2006 at 12:07 am
agreed - this should NOT be on the font page.
Serioulsy, I’m already mad enough watching BMX and Skateborading right now on that MountainDew (abc) thing knowing skating still isn’t on it.
November 27th, 2006 at 12:17 am
wtf is this doing on here!
November 27th, 2006 at 12:25 am
Ive seen this before, he is so amazing.
November 27th, 2006 at 12:27 am
he is no doubt one of the best bmx rider in the world, but this is rollerblading.
we dont need him here
November 27th, 2006 at 12:28 am
dont listen all this crap koubis, this video is great.
And you morons try to see a little beyond your handrails and your switch ups, as bladers you are members of a bigger mouvement, members of a group of people who decide to do something extreme, beautiful and unique. Something where the word “freedom” takes all its meaning and where your imagination can only be stop by the limits of your own body. Knowing dave mirra someone who has dedicaced his life for this freedom and for what he loves, knowing top bmxers and what they do actually can only improve your own skating.
November 27th, 2006 at 12:49 am
Great! I think Noboby knows that Dave Mirra was sponsered by Senate (also Dennis McKoy)
November 27th, 2006 at 12:57 am
put it this way, wat if a bmx news site / forum website put a video of a skating edit up. it would get the same reaction as this but at least ppl are appreciating each others sport.
November 27th, 2006 at 1:14 am
i dont come to rollernews to see dave mirra
if i wanted to see a bald asshole on a bike i would go to a bmx site
November 27th, 2006 at 1:27 am
ey this clip of dave mirra is sick, but it’s a rollingpage………..whatever
November 27th, 2006 at 1:48 am
Its good but quite old!
But i dont see the point of puting it on rollernews.
November 27th, 2006 at 2:08 am
You know what? I’d rather be a well rounded rollerblader than a rollerblader who didn’t know what the heck was going on around me. Yes this is a rollerblading website but I think sometimes its good to see what the other guys have been up to. we get like 95% blading, 5% of everything else. Is it that bad to taste something different once in a while? Koubis don’t listen to them. keep this once in a while expression going. I don’t mind it at all as long as the site becomes an all action sports domain. Then I’d get pissed! Lovin it!
November 27th, 2006 at 2:10 am
I meant to say: “as long as the site DOES NOT become an all action sports domain then it’s cool.”
November 27th, 2006 at 2:17 am
that front flip was fuckin nuts! and soooo high!
November 27th, 2006 at 2:26 am
The only link I can see is, at one point he was riding for senate. Other than that this should not be on a rolling website. For those saying it is better to be a well rounded roller, this is ROLLER news no GENERAL EXTREME SPORTS news.
November 27th, 2006 at 2:27 am
that was hot as hell and what the fuck do you call that last trick that he did that was healthy
November 27th, 2006 at 3:18 am
None the less, this is a ROLLING SITE!
if you want to be well rounded, make an effort - go search around!
I come to rollernews to see ROLLERBLADING NEWS!
If you want other sports go to…
bmxonline.com
skateboard.com
twsnow.com
etc.
ps. If news from other sports becomes frequent headlines, I will probably stop coming here.
I’ll go to rollerwarehouse.com or somethin, idk.
November 27th, 2006 at 3:26 am
this site is seriously startin to to become real whack, what is with all the bull shit posts recently that have absolutely nothing to do with rolling , and no this is not hate towards dave mirra cuz the dude is a beast but seriously he has nothing to do with us, rollernews is getting corny, if their is no news to post then don’t post anything, don’t flood the site with bullshit that doesn’t relate to us or old video sections that have been on youtube for months and call it new news
November 27th, 2006 at 3:31 am
the sad thing about this being posted here is that u will NOT see a bike or board or any forum posting anything “cool” featuring rolling, other then them making fun
November 27th, 2006 at 3:52 am
yah hes cool and all, but this really has nothing to do with the lifestyle we call rollerblading… not trying to be a prick, beacause he is cool… but he doesnt roll…
November 27th, 2006 at 4:05 am
and this was posted on a rollerblading website why…?
November 27th, 2006 at 4:15 am
dave mirra is flow for razor hes getting a skate soon. YOU GUYS ARE RETARTED! gahhhhh
November 27th, 2006 at 4:15 am
i agree he is good at what he does and deserves respect, but so does tiger woods, so does bill gates and paul wall, are they gonna get posts also? but this also isnt any of ours website so we really dont have a say in what they post.
November 27th, 2006 at 4:22 am
dont forget why rollerblading was dumped from the xgames… bigger more powerful sports like skateboarding and bmx put them down and bagged them to the point where it became uncool - we are still copping it! Dave Mirra is an old schooler, he was probly one of the people kicking up a stink? that said i take nothing away from his skills as a bike rider!
November 27th, 2006 at 4:44 am
this is bs this is rollernews.com not bmxnews.com or what ever the website the bmx website is dont post shit like this on here its a mother fucking rollerblading websire so post that shit instead of some bmx
November 27th, 2006 at 4:46 am
“Great! I think Noboby knows that Dave Mirra was sponsered by Senate (also Dennis McKoy)”
Dave Mirra was not. It was Rick Thorn and McKoy.
November 27th, 2006 at 4:48 am
fuck that was amazing…
November 27th, 2006 at 5:00 am
anyone who thinks its wrong to have dave mirra on this site should shut the hell up. hes a freakin badass on a bike. who cares if hes a biker and not on skates, hes killin it! people like you are the reason we’re not getting more attention. you talk so much shit about everyone else and make rolling look bad. so shut the hell up and get over it!
peaace
November 27th, 2006 at 5:14 am
when it comes to bmx, mirra is the freakin bomb, vert or park he dominates.
this is why rollers are the best, cuz we post stuff about other sports on our websites, skateboarders and bikers would never EVER post blading stuff on their page
November 27th, 2006 at 5:18 am
shit, thats good. what was that last trick?
November 27th, 2006 at 5:28 am
hehe
November 27th, 2006 at 5:45 am
na dave was sponserd by senate, my friend has his senate shirt, ill see if he can find it and take a pic
November 27th, 2006 at 5:52 am
yeah i remember the ad with the halo sticker on the bottom of his bike and the long ass senate socks on too. day of the rope.
November 27th, 2006 at 7:44 am
ok usually im down with the somewhat non skating related stuff on the front page, but seriously this is taking it pretty far. Come on, if i wanted to watch a bmx edit i would just go on a bmx website
November 27th, 2006 at 8:28 am
Dave Mirra is better than me as riding bmx.
I thought he wasnt.
damn.
November 27th, 2006 at 8:44 am
rollerblading-nazis……
theres not only rollerblading as a good “extreme sport”.
this video is HOT!!
November 27th, 2006 at 9:36 am
Sometimes taking a short look at the world surrounding you shouldn’t hurt you too much…
November 27th, 2006 at 9:52 am
it doesn`t matter we`re on a rollerblading site
that guy is the most decorated extreme athlet and he does crazy shit on that bike, i`m glad i saw that, you have to be open minded and respect the other athlets for what they`re dooing. Nobody forces you to watch the clip…
and i think it`s in woodword camp cuz of the yellow stickers
November 27th, 2006 at 1:29 pm
Dont wou have something better to post?
November 27th, 2006 at 1:43 pm
i think its in the back of hangar 18 at wooodward west
November 27th, 2006 at 2:45 pm
oh my god. that was the best thing i have watched in a long time (apart from lost last night) but yeah, seriously - he has the right stuff!
i think having footage of other sports on this site just goes to show that bladers don’t have the pathetic attitude that boarders and the like have against anything other than their own.
November 27th, 2006 at 3:04 pm
FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!! THIS IS A ROLLERBLADING SITE!!!
November 27th, 2006 at 3:52 pm
sik. soo much control mannn
November 27th, 2006 at 4:13 pm
i dont see why everyone needs to make such a big deal about a bmx clip posted on a “rolling” website. whats it matter if its a bike? the tricks mirra does are nothing short of amazing. and we as rollers need to respect that. bmxing has been around much longer then rolling has and thats the truth. i think thats why rolling is doing so poorly. we show little to no respect for the other extreme sports out there. in order to earn respect, you have to show it.
November 27th, 2006 at 5:43 pm
Does Any one here SKATE?
All Y’all Do is Talk TALK TALK TALK TALK!
GO ROLL!
November 27th, 2006 at 7:24 pm
Wow thats crazy stuff!!! I would much rather see a biker then a dumb ass skateboader thats for sure. Biking is at least more exciting then skateboarding. Next edit show dave mirra on some blades haha that would be cool!!!!!
November 27th, 2006 at 8:23 pm
crazy man, he do amazing tricks. and for those under 15teen boys who has no point to comment just to say “its a rollerblading newspage” you should shut da’ fuck up, its a part of extreme sports, and you wont distroy your eyes to check out an amazing edit of Dave Mirra. ROLLERBLADING ROLLERBLADING ROLLERBLADING BLA BLA BLA YOU SHOULD KNOW CULTURE ABOUT EVERYTHING !! stupid kids :/ as time if you have 887565967087865 news of rollerblading dont blame Koubis for this post. Amen
November 27th, 2006 at 9:46 pm
Cool video. Just goes to show that rollerbladers are the only people who can actually accept other extreme sports.
November 28th, 2006 at 1:00 am
dang he IS so gooD its CRAZY
November 28th, 2006 at 1:01 am
dang he IS so gooD its CRAZY
November 28th, 2006 at 9:55 am
well maybe they posted it because of wondering where this fuckin sick park might be,, someone would know!
November 28th, 2006 at 5:41 pm
flat out that video was sick and I wish I could get as much air as most bikers. if I could then maybe I would be pro. :)
November 29th, 2006 at 2:57 am

November 29th, 2006 at 4:32 am
ppl r fuckign retarted this websire is called ROLLERnews not gaybikers.com seriously take this shit off fuck bikers and skateboarders
November 29th, 2006 at 4:39 am
Rollerbladers can be so close-minded. you guys can be so annoying sometimes. You sound like moron skateboarders and bikers.
November 29th, 2006 at 9:38 pm
this is pretty sick im a rollerblader and i biker i used to biek a lot more but now i dont do it as much even being a biker i sorta see where everyone is coming from this isnt really ment for rollernews
November 30th, 2006 at 2:42 am
That was fucking sick! Thats why they need to come up with frames where the sidewalls come down 3/4″(2 cm) from the axle centers(like 1/4″,1 cm further than most frames) and push out the inner wheels as far as possible. Then you could run flat 60mm wheels, roll fast as hell and still grind everything.
November 30th, 2006 at 6:33 pm
I agree that the name of the site is Rollernews and it means that it is meant for rollerblading and I am totally down with that. But look at it this way: see how skateboarders and BMXers suggest that rolling sucks? do you know why? That’s because they never expose us on their sites so they’ll never know how sick we’ve become in the past few years. Most of them perhaps remember rolling in its X-Games years with maybe vert but don’t know us now because of how strictly designed their skateboard and BMX sites are. They like BMXers also because the exposure is there. I have 2 skateboard DVDs and they have BMX ads. That won’t kill skateboarding vibes would it? Once again I agree that this site is designed to cater for rolling but once in a while a look into what they do won’t kill us. We keep the respect by not following in their footsteps and being as close minded and as judgemental as they can be. So screw this whole “oh they don’t show us so why show them” thing: it doesn’t solve the disrespect problem. A clip every other month of boarding and bmx? Come on! I do agree though that it can get a bit over done so Koubis: keep some form of control over the exposure.
December 3rd, 2006 at 12:59 am
you are all retarded! dave mirra is flow for razor and is getting a pro skate soon just like kid said . . . i don’t know why dave mirra would get a pro skate and not a pro bike or something but whatever
