Much harder to do anything on a bmx that a crosser if you ask me. Not only do you have to power the thing yourself but you dont have 19 feet of suspension to soak up the landing
Wishing it was like the old days again

You also have about 40 odd times the weight and a clutch to manage. Too much throttle and you'll dive, not enough and you sink.
Anywho, check this furry little bastard!
