I’m not talking about front-to-back best tape but rather your favorite segment/edit. Both of mine come from Fox’s TerraFirma 7 between the opening segment and the RC’s closer with Deftones but if I have to pick, there isn’t a video that still gives me goosebumps like this one does. So many legendary riders in this, RC’s crazy save and style, glimpses of peak Pastrana and the soundtrack is perfect. What say you?

Project MX (Terrafirma 7) is one of the better ones I agree.

I think FOX Great Hits Volume 1 edges it though, especially the RC part early on - I feel the song and chosen footage perfectly encapsulates the (at the time) internal attitude Ricky had on a bike.

I remember working out with these vids playing in the background back in the day when it was all the rage.

DV was a good starter. I feel like I remember him always being up front early. It’s funny how “loose” they all look on the bike. The tracks developed so different compared to today.

I think it was ON TP199 there is a clip of Travis at MXDN on the 125... always loved that part and music.... 

but nothing beats the steel roots clip.

Might be the segment on Revelation 199, that's certainly my all time favorite moto movie. The music was awesome we were like 8 years old watching that thing on repeat in the camper before we raced or road the next day. The freeride part with the Disturbed song was all time.

Crusty DOD is the heavyweight, platinum standard. Never been any video to even come close. It personified the time and attitude of MX, and riding in general, at the time.

yes, you are probably correct... when he jumps that down hill over Roncada at MXDN gives me chills... badass.

Some more modern picks for me;

I always really liked Heplers part in TWMX’s Why


Castillo ranch segment from stone spray sandwich 


Millsaps part in 6IX


The moto 4? Or 3? Intro with RD and RC 



Hard to pick from the older ones for me because they’re all so damn good

Winners Take All. 

No, I take that back. The opening segment of Terrafirma III, When Johnny Campbell is doing 100MPH through the desert is righteous.

Terrafirma 1, Doug Henry at Castillo ranch with Alice in Chains Nutshell. Just something about that combo that still gives me chills.

Honorable mention: Another Doug Henry Terrafirma with Elvis helping him clear that triple. Watch it and check out Doug's SX track. Was and still is one bad mofo.

 If you think back to when they did that, hat was a really well put together video. That's my time period which makes it great also.

The Mookie/JDR Dream Ride edits were epic. Maybe not goat worthy, but sick none the less.

On a side note, man I wish there were more edits of James free riding. He just missed the YouTube era.... man what could have been!
