*Video* Power slide on a Nomad

dantama · 12-21-2009, 07:31 PM

I've always wanted to do one of the power slides like was done in the Honda Valkyrie commercial about 10 years ago.

Today I decided to do it.

If I took the hard bags off, I would be more daring.

I did it about 6 times, and it didn't work one time. That's another story.

Dan, I know you have fun, and I have fun watching for your next trick. But please be careful. I just wish I had that much confidence in my riding skills. When I was young my big brother would say to me "You do it first you're young and will grow back." Now I'm old and don't heal as quickly.

Dan obviously didn't read the warning half way through the video. :)

Be safe, and have fun!!

I know there's a support group for this somewhere??!!

Dan: I think this is one of those things where they say don't try this at home.

**schoeney** · 12-22-2009, 01:06 AM

He's safe: based on the pictures he wasn't at home.

Dan, this is one where we need video to appreciate it. So give it another go and film it this time so we can ooh and ah. Wear a helmet so you can really hit it hard!

Go for it!
