This guy has aged very well! He doesn't look any older than he did in 2008.
for real right😂
Benjamin Button
Im 40 and have been a big Allan Cooke fan forever. That last clip that took him 7 years..Gnarly as hell 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Yes! This is too good boys, get guettler on for sure!!
This and the Todd Lyons episode were both fantastic. Thanks ryan and dennis!
Expendable 3 was the very first BMX video I ever saw when I was like 11 or 12. So insane to this day!
shout out to riding to reign in blood!!!
Raining blood is the song
Reign in blood is the album
Allan Cooke had the best backflip x-up one footers in the game. I believe the footage of Colin Winkelman pulling the go cart flip is in the Rooftop video, "Samurai: back for the first time".
Man, Local Exposure needs to make a comeback! Such a cool concept.
Fudger is so jealous of other forms of biking 😂😂😂😂 chill Ryan, all bikes are dope 😅
Just listened to this episode! Another great one. That part where Allan is talking about the end of his pro riding career is similar to what happened to me with a work career.
Great pod cast Ryan, Alan Cooke what a legend 🤟🤟
RideBMX double interview was the first time I heard of Cooke and Martinez. now two legends. so wild
I was there with my brother at that first clip they showed. It was 2001 Xtrails in Grand Prairie, Tx 🤟
There willl be our generation that will never turn from BMX and it’s our job to bring up the next generation to know their roots and everything that is going on today comes from BMX and to never let it die out .
This was an excellent podcast!
Talking about BMX versus mountain bikes, I can understand where fudge is coming from. But as someone who rides both, especially as you get older you should understand there’s a time and place for each one. I like to hit gaps on my full suspension mountain bike, but I still love to ride street on my BMX! Like what Alan said, tricks are for kids lol I don’t know if I’m learning anything new on my BMX “Kidding“.. but on my mountain bike just hitting jumps or building new trails feels like I’m in a different part of heaven and I don’t have to do a trick to feel good riding with guys that are way above my skill level.
Do you, for sure. I'm talking about kids that get an MTB and never learn that BMX is fun in it's own way.
The best. When I worked in MH I'd always hope to bump into him at the skatepark.
It is interesting to hear Alan say Specialized look after their employees. I can imagine that due to the cost of their products but I can also remember at one stage they let off many employees world wide. Happy to hear he has a decent job at the big " S ".
beginning riding in the mid 2000s, I knew the name Allan Cooke but didn't really know anything about him. But this was a rad interview, with a solid, articulate and interesting dude.
+1 for Guettler podcast
Allan Cooke was my favorite rider growing up. His tailwhip roof gap is still my favorite clip of all time.
This was awesome!!! There are so many legends you guys gotta interview. Psyched on this and the Todd lyons one!
Really enjoying the heritage podcasts you've been putting out recently.
Finally someone I can listen too. He still is my favorite rider!
Ryan get off my lawn fuger. Loved your rant on BMX vs MTB. Your guest was priceless during that. He just keep his mouth shut and let you go
Love the MTB rant. Downhill mountain bikes are fun to ride but the big corporate bike industry just likes to latch on to any bike culture and wring the cash out of it. They love to take the style and tricks of BMX but don't respect BMX or it's history (and don't want to sell $900 chromoly BMX bikes that last when they can make $2,300 aluminum "DMX" bikes that break in a year or two). I watched a video a few years ago of a mountain bike box jump contest where they claimed this guy did the "first ever no-handed 360 backflip on two wheels", forgetting that Mirra did it already 11 or 12 years before.
He’s sounding like a total kook for this
Great episode. Allan is one of the reasons I started rising bmx I remember seeing him in the gravity games back in the day and being super inspired.
Only 45 minutes in but now i have to find that dew tour park run where he had to push his teeth back in. What in the hell?! 😅 Good one so far.
Brought back so many memories! Great one for sure. AC is the man!!
humble , legend
Bummed that Dennis ended up not going to swampfest :(
Great podcast episode though
That was indeed awesome. 😊
Legend 🤘🏻🔥
1:42:34 good boi with good timing
Jokes aside this episode is pretty damn inspiring and hilarious also . Thanks fellas!
Wasn't the go cart thing part of the samurai, Mike escamilla video, it's a good dvd buried in my collection
Nice! Looking forward to listening to this.
another great one!
Yes !
underratted bmx god
First, Alan. You are awesome.
i dont see kids riding BMXs in Melbourne, Australia anymore, all MTB.
Bummer...
Sick pod
Regarding the MTB vs BMX discussion, my confusion (as someone who does not ride an MTB) is that it seems like so much of what is popular in that sport is clearly influenced by BMX, down to MTBers riding in parks and hitting famous street spots. I have no issue with that, generally. It's cool to see BMX influence other types of bike riding. The sour taste I get, and it sounds like Ryan has it too, comes from my perception of a lack of acknowledgement of BMX's influence on MTB. In many cases, it seems like MTB has appropriated portions of BMX culture and mainstreamed it as if it was there's to begin with. As a BMXer, that doesn't always feel good. I imagine many skaters feel the same way about BMXers too, though. But it's important to remember that it's really just about the stoke. Regardless of the apparatus - be it a skateboard, surfboard, BMX, MTB, scooter, snowboard, dirt bike, whatever - the quest for stoke is what we're all essentially doing. The vessel is somewhat arbitrary, unless you have a financial stake in one vessel outperforming another. But I for one own many of those vessels and enjoy all of them. If I could change anything, it would be to see more MTBers picking up a BMX every now and then. Why ride a concrete bowl on a full suspension MTB? Do it on a brakeless BMX and see what that's all about.Then go roast some single track trails on the MTB. And then go snowboarding the next weekend. Support the stoke wherever you find it, and respect the contributions of other action sports while you do it.
1:40:00 lol I watched that dvd so many times
Can’t believe Fudger thinks mtb agree on standards try getting a derailleur hanger or disc brake pads 😂
And Allen Cooke jumping the van is in the F this S DVD
26:20 ripped your what off of your what? And still rode the contest!? This guy is fuct 😳😭
Anyone know what shirt he has on😂
Rip colin
Fudger- you’re banned for talking about the Board in such a public place. #Lairdsgoatee
We don't have a skatepark, pump track, nothing. I have my local trails which NO ONE help dig at and just destroy. But FDR is 6 miles away but I don't have a car and there's no easy way to ride your bike there. I wish we had anything fun, if mountain biking helped my town get a pump track cool... but Im not into the whole MTN Bike thing. I don't get it, but whatever.
i wouldn't be worried about mtb takeover in freestyle. we both got absolutely rekt by scooters. kids choose scooter now. and no matter what they ride chances of them riding after 16-18 is zero. is what i see. no lifers just quiters. we lose to car industry xD
Fudger "bmx needs to innovate" MTB indusrty "ok we'll increase the wheel size, add suspension and tubeless tyres and make things out of aluminium." Fudger "No not like that 🤬 just change the hub spacing 10mm"
Stop screwing about and get fids on lads
Specialized was never cool 😂😂. Especially lame now.
But that part was super rad. 🤘🤘
