they should have …
they should have taken Matt Willhelm or somebody else with a more b-boy like style of riding flatland. terry’s tricks are very technical but rather slow and not so much b-boy like. with a rider like willhelm comparing the two sports would have looked better. cool idea anyway

his bike must be stupid light for him to do all that so easily, look at the frame design, so small. both bmx and breaking have similar concepts, when i did flatland it was much harder and more about control and weight distribution which in breaking is the same but with your own body weight rather than the added weight of the bike and rolling all the time on a wheel. breaking is more secure as you’ve always got a part of your body on the floor.

I hope the b boy dude wasn’t trying….. because Terry was definitely taking it easy! With flatland, you have to be able to see first off! Terry is riding in the dark! Flatland is on a whole different level! You can’t compare the two, because flatland is sooo much more difficult! Come on… the b boy dude is dancing for crying out loud! I’ve seen some amazing b boy dudes… and this guy isn’t doing the crazy moves it would take to compete with Terry!

Terry all the way! …
Terry all the way! but i really wouldnt compare the two. The thing is though, i would say flatland is more of an art, and is extremely unreliable, meaning, in front of crowds, theres such a small chance of landing what u aim to land, and even if u do, the crowd usually cant understand, let alone appreciate, what u are actually doing! Luv the breakdancing though, really a head turner, especially at professional level.

Both Terry and …
Both Terry and Daylight did fantastic, but coming from a former flatlander, Terry’s first run was absolutely insane. I’m not going to dismiss the fact that Daylight is sick, but Terry’s run was absolutely insane, even to the flatland community who sees these tricks daily.

This was more of a demo than a battle, and you can’t really compare the two to each other, we can only decide how well each person did. Terry did things that literally only a dozen or so people on Earth can do, yet his run here was more to entertain the crowed than to show off his skills.
