    These Japan vlogs are so sick. Never mind jimmys progression. He is full on shredding. Quick shout out to Sammit too. The guy grinds in Japan. Often alone, and so pumped for all you guys to be homies together at Ebisu.

Watching you come from how you were with the change up. You really are smashing it out the park. Plus, you're a pretty damn well teacher of the JDM car industry. Really appreciate you and Adam and Sammy boy!!!!

    Jimmy you sir are making everyone super duper proud of you for the progress you’ve made over this last week! This is what we’ve all been waiting for with your driving and this seriously couldn’t get me more stoked! I can’t wait to see where this evolves to and because just like your bmx riding you have way more skill and then you give credit to yourself! Stop being so hard on yourself and just enjoy the time with the boys and give us lots of GoPro footage so you don’t gotta stress about filming

    Hey Jimmy, just wanted to thank you and Grant as well for the Ebisu content. Im currently on my 5th day in hospital with both legs and a back broken after a dude hit me from the back in his car while I was on a bicycle trying to pick up my e36 from my homies shop. You're making this time so so much easier with your awesome content. Not to mention how YOU and Grant seem to be most heartwarming and genuine guys in the sea of RUclips fakeness and ratrace. Thanks for being genuine and providing awesome content! Take care and have an awesome time in Japan ❤

  • @BkSMedia
    @BkSMedia Год назад +1

    The improvement at which you've accelerated is unreal, it's really noticeable in your hand movements, where at the start of the trip you had those damn crazy hands, but now your movements are nice and smooth and there's not a lot of seesawing the wheel. This can probably be attributed a lot to forward planning your line but a lot of it is definitely seat time which is exactly what you needed Jim!
    You're gonna go home an absolute beast!!!

    Jimmy, there was a black dot in the top right hand corner of your go pro for like 2 months. at least the last 10 videos. I do watch on a 75 inch though. It's gone now, but even though I only ever take pics on my s23 and film, i have a habit of using my shirt to wipe the camera every single time I use it. Just use your bottom shirt under your hoodie and give it a buff with your thumb. You are doing great though brother. I hope you make it to LZ in Melbourne I would love to come down and give you a fist bump. Cheers David
