Troy was a huge influence on me and my friend back in the day. Hes the reason we went brakeless.
Same. Rode a warpig for years, 415 chain, triple walls, tiny Castillo bars, 40lbs of dead weight steel. Bunch of little kids with big ass forearms.
Same lol..brakeless and buff
The legend and still killing !
Awesome this dude still rides. I remember he was on S&M and I think my homie, Wiz was on the team with him.
I remember Wiz!!
Man troy will always be an icon for me. Dude did his own thing and did it well and continues to do so. Keep shreddin my man
Yea man, no doubt! A true originator - the world needs more people like him. ⚡️🖤
So good, thanks for this video!!
You could always tell he’s been the real deal over the years. This just solidifies that. 👍
Good interview! I was introduced to Troy with the Props Road Fools 5 movie (VHS) in 2000. I also got to meet/ride with Troy and Sammy J for the first time at the Old School BMX Reunion earlier this year :) . BMX is awesome!
Thx Peter, so stoked you enjoyed it!
Hell yea!! The whole crew is the raddest too haha.
Troy 100% real...huge influence
Yet the same age...kind of the same childhood situation, my little brother lost a long battle with drugs
I chose bmx ,so i can really relate to this.
Ive Been looking for a flatland frame too, so if you make it...i will find one
1, the first guy to go no brakeless
2, do a tailwip drop to flat
3,bunny hop whip
Troy was the first I ever seen do them in the 90s
Respect.
I love Troy.. the reason I went brakeless, back in 2000. Ive messaged him a few times on Insta, always sends a quick response . I was luck enough to be touring in the US around 97/98. Driving through downtown Denver I saw a group of riders sessioning a wall ride by a huge church. He was definitely one of them or I like to think it was. .... Is this spot still there ? Big up Troy !!!
I always had problems with my brake cables snapping because Canadian Tire was the only source for new ones. I saw a pic of Gonz doing a barspin fakie off a tree and they pointed out he was brakeless.
Then I saw Troy brakeless I ripped them off. Part of it was due to being too poor to order from Dan's comp, but we also did it so we couldn't puss out when hitting big gaps because we were also pretty obsessed with Dave Young.
Hell yes! Troy is a big inspiration to me!
Marvin next!
Marvin who? We can reach out!!

I don’t think he won the every V Jam. About 97 a dude named Lucky did a loop(back flip)on the V Lip for the first time. I thought he got 1st?
I always thought he had a good sense of humor. That's what I got out of his videos and interviews.
He really does!
road fools
Denver BMX scene is dope AF. I had so many good times back in the day riding with the locals and seshing the Jackson house. Troy's one of the guys who keeps me inspired to never give up riding. Especially riding trails. Shout out to Scott Fife and the move masters days 🤙
It really is dope man!
Couldn't agree more, Troy is an endless inspiration on so many levels.
To many pod casts now.
Love you Troy! Super proud of you!
Forever Mrs. Mckinney
