bike parkour

I am way too much of a chicken to try anything more than a bunny hop on a bike, yet I owned a BMX bike (till it got stolen 🙁) - size was perfect, and I always dreamed of doing bmx dirt racing/jumps.

And speaking of hops, holy shit is it just the type of bike he uses or what? That dude can get some serious height with a bunny hop with barely any speed and no assistance.
 
He was just asking to have his junk impaled on that fence. Reminds me of the picture of the criminal who got killed while trying to climb over a fence like that.
 
What kind of BMX bike is that? It looks like my specialized mountain bike but stripped down to nothing.

It's a trials bike. Purpose built for this kind of riding, usually with 26" wheels on a really small BMX-like frame. Grippy tires, strong brakes, really wide handlebars and usually a single gear, close to a 1:1 ratio I think. Looks like he's using some kind of fixed gear though.

Amazing, I was thinking of a motorcycle trials bike watching that & I couldn't figure out what kind of bike it was either...

you could call it a mix of trials, freeride, or flatland bmx.
