@@evpm4545 in my opinion free riding was a dying sport. The limits of fmx had been pushed by twitch, deegan and travis to the point where new riders felt it was way too dangerous to top other fmx legends, also the price of modifying the bikes and competing had changed drastically, not only axell but many other riders, even twitch and travis changed the sport to not compete in the best tricks but to compete in having fun, axell specifically added his own style to the sport by taking inspiration from skating, bmx, and snowboarding
Shit that's easy i could clear it on my yz 125, he can't even make it on a 450 he's got style but no go, see when he comes short alittle those two little jumps he should just hold it wide open don't worry about whipping them little things just hold her down and wide open and would clear it right, see I thought it looked 250 not 150 that's a cake walk for a 450, that's why I ride yz125 I would probably over jump everything on a 450 250t
If I could over jump everything on a yz125 I certainly wouldn’t have a yz125.You either have a 125 cause you can’t ride a 450 or you’re still 14.Everyone talks a good game but if you could send a 450 wide open then that shit would be posted.For example if I could drive a trophy truck through the streets of San Clemente I would post that shit.Talk is cheap. And that 140 footer WAS insane..!🤯✌️
They typically don’t make free ride videos like this one anymore. Raw footage, fun creative riding, perfect loamy fresh traction (in the desert!!!!). Similar to Bruce Brown’s beach scene with Mert, Steve and Neat Malcolm in On Any Sunday. Makes you want to rally your friends and go riding and of course, the shit talk and nick names just make it all complete! Thanks Axell, Twitch and MM crew!
Man we are so lucky to have had Slay and Raha choosing to drift away from racing. They've been resurecting FREERIDING and the old moto lifestyle these last few years !!! I enjoy that type of dope edits way more than watching everybody do the same no hander double backflip or frontflip at the X-Games.
Freestyle motocross hit the ceiling. There’s no more further to push it than death. I’d rather watch big jump contests. X Games have been wack since the backflip became normal
One thing I like about dirt bike riding is when one of your friends hits a jump and the dust from the jump is still there in the air I think it’s cool keep up the good work monster you guys are the shit
Love the good natured kidding/heckling from Axell's dad towards Twitch! "We didn't come here to hit the 45 footers that Twitch hits!" That type of camaraderie is probably 75% of my best memories at the track/trails.
The dislikes came from link fans 😂 idgaf what anyone says. Money can’t buy skill and ability. Axell is def one of the best riders period in this day and age.
Automatically liked this video because of the Hieroglyphics track featured! Shout out to Del the Funky Homosapien for being dope since the Gorillaz days
Beginning was to many fast moving parts Wallet guy was funny Axel and shark back at it again with the great videossssssssssssss dam DANIEL No more doonies I take it?
What's great about these and similar video's from a film making perspective is that the films are shot with high apertures. The depth of field is super deep 99% of the time and that means as long as your frame rate settings are correct, this can be done by most people on cheap gear if needs be. Anyone with a half decent camera and 2 lenses that go from wide to super telephoto can produce cinematic footage. Even manual focusing for these style video's is fair easily due to the depth of field beimg used. Camera angles and movement, with a mix of slow motion coupled with simple transitions stitches it all together nicely
Ocotillo after rain!!! Really good video, would like to see a part 2 with riding on the ridges and some of the tight canyons, maybe throw him in a Sxs for a couple shots of a night ride. Ocotillo is probably the best place to ride if you love 2 and 4 wheels.
It was inevitable, and a sign of the times. Whoops are good for you, who goes to the desert to complain about whoops? If you really know Ocotillo you can hit the ridges and washes that are too tight for a SxS and put together some really fun loops with a mix of everything. Whoops do get old, until I do a WORCS race and realize it's the best training you can do.
This was dope, but if your gonna make us wait a year for these videos I just wish it was a little longer, but still this is so dope I’ve watched it like 15 time now
Whomever is the video guy or personnel,YOU GUYS SHOULD BE WINNING DAMN GRAMMYS OR OSCARS or whatever the hell hollyweird awards out!! Always awesome, awesome, awesome videography an music!!!
Video well done !! And my son happened to ride next to your dad driving the bike hauler my son was on a Harley and said your dad was a pretty cool dude well both if you are pretty cool dudes !!! Thanks for the video!!
Im gonna stop the vid right here at the 30sec mark.. to give yall mad props on the song! #dontforgetdell #crackinitopentryintomakeadentimhellbent onnnn. I used this song for a vid like 7 years ago. It was old school then! Kids nowdays need this music
Mind blown! Freeriding has evolved so much since the Crusty days.
But that's why we loved the crusty days, full send the entire movies
Same I own a 1989 yamaha IT 175
It has evolved by no one doing it
Ya just send it. You should watch unchained on Netflix it's about how freestyle evolved and travis pastrana s childhood
aye what up buddy
this video captures very little of his skills with a dirt bike this dude can ride like hell
Mic Drop throwing the gloves in the 🔥
Axell reinvented freeriding and it's awesome
FARM BEAR elaborate
I wouldn't say reinvented but he definitely repopularized it a lot more

Colby raha hello? He does way sicker free riding stuff lol
@@iTzReFlExx that's not the point he's making lmao
Damn....that was a straight Mike Cinqmars type of jump..5 foot lip...150 foot gap....10 foot long landings....yup. Doable
I give props to anyone that mentions Cinq. IMO one of the best to ever do it.
@@adi0malka - that's right dude was on his game..never seen anyone hit such big gaps with thies tiny lips and tiny landing's and pull it .
@@assman199491 on a 2stroke! cinq was amazing golden era

Wait a 125??? WTF? You can't be serious. Try being an adult and ride a 250 or 450.
I’m 18 and have a 125 cause it was my first bike and I’m too broke it buy a 250 or 450
i mean... that was a perfectly good pair of gloves.
Brady Patterson no it wasn’t there’s a hole in the finger go look at his Instagram
🤣😂
He didn’t actually throw them in the fire 😂
HobbyGrade RC Studios yes he did you can see them in the second view sitting there.

raja is making some pretty good freeride or takeover videos now
Ruins-Deadborns is the second song 👌🏼
Props on the Hieroglyphics track. I felt like it was 2000 all over again.

its 2021 ive watched this about 1000 times and cant stop
Love this edit too much. Free riding is the best form of dirt bikes in my opinion
I like how Axell has a bmx/skate vibe to his riding. Bmx style lines with the nose manuals and jumping stuff like it's a spine.
I never said it was new. I said I liked how HE does it.
Omg that track 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯right in the childhood
Anyone who dogs axell or free riding and says that it takes away from the sport clearly is wrong. This guy is breathe of fresh air!!
Great mix of riding and chill tunes
Premix Utah do you know what the second song is called?
It's Ruins by Deadborns who are us :)
This dude is livin the life man I’m jealous af
I could watch this style of free riding all day.
Axells turn down look like they are in slow motion .His style is so smooth
SECOND SONG IS "RUINS" BY DEADBORNS
Thank you!
First sounds like Deltron 3030
Thanks! Been searching for it. Didn't take long 👍🏼
Ryan Ryan that’s why I was scrolling 👍🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Ryan Ryan u are a savior ive been lookin for it for soo long
One thing I like about dirt bike riding is when one of your friends hits a jump and the dust from the jump is still there in the air I think it’s cool keep up the good work monster you guys are the shit
This vid is super chill free riding has evolved from a "rebel rock format" to a mainstream extreme sport
.old school tricks are so legendary, can cans, nac nacs lazy boys,, just pure moto, love it
Love the good natured kidding/heckling from Axell's dad towards Twitch! "We didn't come here to hit the 45 footers that Twitch hits!" That type of camaraderie is probably 75% of my best memories at the track/trails.
so this is why monster drinks are so expensive
Hahaha exactly
they arent that bad in straya
Cheaper than Red Bull though (and better)
1 big can in Austria is 99Cents... Not even 1€
The drink in Colombia just 1.50 dollars
Absolutely love these edits. And the fun the guys have making them.
What a beautiful video ❤ i love watching him,seeing his movements and how much control he has on the bike is absolutely amazing.
This kid is mental 😂 love watching him ride so entertaining 🔥
The dislikes came from link fans 😂 idgaf what anyone says. Money can’t buy skill and ability. Axell is def one of the best riders period in this day and age.
He'll yeah man. Yell em . That's the truth
how does monster energy always have the best songs for these axell hodges vids
Riding is therapy it will keep me sober n running straight edge

Thumbs down...no backflip...also those toilets don't flush. JK. Thumbs up....that was sick AF!
A Mas.0 thought I would let you know axel only did his first back flip like 3-4 weeks ago
Awesome to begin the new year with some nice free riding from Axell.
1:50 That's just confidence at its finest!
Best turn up on the planet 👑🌎
Such a bad ass video, nice to see some freestyle desert riding other than just whips
Ikr
I get the chills watchin these clips
When I die and go to Heaven, I’ll be able to ride like that every day. Awesome video!
Haha, right. Yo, I'm trying to hit 1K subs.. Check my channel for moto stuff 🤘
Dope video i really enjoy watching this guy ride.
Twitches prodigy, mad skills but yeah definitely got me feeling like a jellyfish 🧸🧸🧸🪒
Phil is the MAN one day axle might be that cool
Axel just stepped up the game to a whole new level. Called hold it open.
Beginning was to many fast moving parts
Wallet guy was funny
Axel and shark back at it again with the great videossssssssssssss dam DANIEL
No more doonies I take it?
Axel bean a slayer! 🔝🔝🔝✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼
The only dislikes on this video were from the spokes
Or the music
Or the first song
What you are hating on hieroglyphics ?
Del the funky homosapian
and the Gloves xD
This song always takes me back to ''the beginning''
That looks like a whole mess of fun
I need to move to cali for the hills, So much riding area. I have trails and some space but damn thats like a dream to me. I'd stay all weekend long.
Axel killed it. Remember him doing this stuff at the xgames!
Axell's dad is the shit... "we didn't come out here to hit the 45 footers that Twitch hits... we came out here to hit the big shit."
3:58 - easily one of the sickest whips i've ever seen.
Definitely. Yo Taylor , I'm trying to hit 1K subs.. Check my channel for moto stuff 🤘
That’s where I grew up.... well I grew up in borrego, but ocotillo is right there to us. Dope video tho. Can’t wait to get on a bike again

Chupacabra Offroad sxs are the worst. There’s so many rzr whoops in Ocotillo now. Arm pump for days.
It was inevitable, and a sign of the times. Whoops are good for you, who goes to the desert to complain about whoops? If you really know Ocotillo you can hit the ridges and washes that are too tight for a SxS and put together some really fun loops with a mix of everything. Whoops do get old, until I do a WORCS race and realize it's the best training you can do.
Me throughout the video:
_"Wow, what the hell?"_
_"HOW?"_
_"Dude, that's so gnarly..."_
_"THAT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE SENSE!?"_
I rode in the 80s and 90s had a very fast 2 stroke 250 Honda great bike
Nice job gentlemen! Awesome riding!

His style is so freaking sick ! He sent that shit anybody else would have got scared and jumped off
Agreed. Yo Stanza, I'm trying to hit 1K subs.. Check my channel for moto stuff 🤘

Replayed it for the song and vid
It starts at 2:47
Aint gettin in the RV with them boots boy! That was sick tho
Amazing... love the Playground
Truck is bad ass sounds so good
The ocotillo hill climb area is my favorite area out there. So fun!
Awesome edit, gets me super pumped to go riding, too bad it’s winter here...
