"Yeah so i was driving through the parking lot and there was this kid just smashing his bike into a pole repeatedly."

the world is your canvas.. until a cop decides to kick you out..

If you don't fall you don't progress Keep in mind its normal to fall learn from your mistake and Ride Safe

You're like the Bob Ross of bmx

Dude, you are such a fucking gift to the BMX community, your attitude is just what the world needs. Yeah that sentence is cheesy as all fuck and I stand by it. Keep being yourself man.

I've been riding bikes for over 10 years and I still enjoy this type of stuff 😂 it's all about fun

Who’s here to find something to learn while stuck in quarantine 😂

5:40 triple barspin backflip!!!

I've been riding for a few months but didn't know what sort of basic things to do to work up skill. This video is awesome, thanks heaps

I’m 37 years old. My daughter (8) got a Bmx. I usually ride a mountain bike. I sold it and bought a Bmx today. Very excited to start a new chapter! This is a great video for beginners!

Spencer: Wear your helmet Trey Jones: [heavy breathing]

This is by far one of the best BMX videos I have watched in a long time. What makes it great is your devotion and positive message. Viewers can observe your dedication in the filming and editing, as well as your progression as a rider. The apparent commitment is complimented with an all-comers welcome attitude. BMX is shown through a non bias and welcoming point of view. All riding is good riding is a common theme, showing that anyone can have fun on a bike. Please continue to produce content while staying true to your core values. Thank you

One of the best intro videos --- low risk, high difficulty, and focused on bike control skills. Becoming one with the bike leads to more and more tricks. Even an experienced rider should continue practicing these skills. 👍

Took me two years to tick the boxes. I'm over 50. Thank you very much Spencer for the simple basics.

This channel is crazy...... A BMX channel with ACTUAL BMX riding. My Brain hurts i need some Fuck!ng Lemonade...

Thanks for promoting safety and starting off with some basic tricks. My 6 year old watches all the extreme bmx stuff and so I appreciate the "be safe first" and how crucial basic skills are. 👊

Cheers mate! Best wishes from an English 40-Something in France who has just been given his first BMX! 🇬🇧🏆🇺🇲.... Here we go! Subscribed

I imagine people thought you were wearing a helmet for different reasons when they drove past you peg slamming into the post! 🤣 This is a very helpful video! 🤟

This is the best intro to bmx video I've ever seen. I'm 50 and am getting my first bmx bike for Father's Day (already ordered). Thank You!

I haven´t touched a BMX in my life, but when I watch videos about it, I feel like I would like to do that. Thanks for the video¡

Man.. I've been waiting forever for someone in BMX to talk about the Bump Jump. I love catching a nice hop off of a rock in the road or anything raised slightly from ground. They seem rare amongst the footage.

It's great that a talented rider like you really embraces the BMX community and post a video like this. It all looks fun to me. The pegs to pole was especially impressive. Could not think of a better person to instruct at Woodward. Good for you Spencer. You have the best personality. Cheers brother.

I'm 38, my kid is 7. Going to get back into bmx. Good exercise, bonding with kid, and reconnecting with childhood days. We're listening out here

Thanks for doing this kind of beginner progression videos Spencer! I'm new to bmx and I really want to become a good rider like you :)

I liked the vid and would like to see more of this! People that already can do everything on their bmx don't need this as much! I'm trying to learn all that basic stuff and get comfortable whit my bmx, specially in the air!

I used to ride way back in the day on a free agent and recently picked up riding again. This video has helped my bmx journey a lot, appreciate it man!

Thanks for making this video. This is exactly what people who are just starting out need to see. I appreciate your work on this

Other great thing to help you learn is just ride with talented riders if you have them. Whenever I ride with someone better than me I progress extremely quickly.

Spencer foresman's tutorials has taught me to 360, barspins and manuals. Praise Papa. Dedication errday for hours.

you sir are the shit. I've watched tons of your vids and your falls are majestic but you almost never get hurt. keep doing this man!!!!

Been following you and adam for a while now and have only started riding just recently. Didn't really know what to practice other than bunny hops and manuals so this video was perfectly timed. Would definitely like to see more of these every now and then. Something else you might try on one is find someone new to bmx and teach them a few things to also see it from the beginners perspective. Love your work man, keep it up!

I have never ridden, and probably never will but you are one entertaining person. Found you through LZ.

This 36 year old newb sure appreciated this video 👍 Seemed like a lot of fun as well 🤙

just want to shout you at spencer, i picked up a bike 3 months ago and watched this i just landed my first hop 360 on flat and i feel watching riders such as you and scottys crew is essential to new rider gaining confidence in their selves keep it up bro!!

I used to manny like that as a kid. Gonna start that entry level practicing again now. Thanks for the vid, it's really helpful for beginners or guys who stepped away for too long

Fun to watch, i think this video is pretty helpful for people who start bmx, nice vid!

"Its the worst when you want to ride your bike, and you cant..." Im watching from a hospital bed s i feel u

waiting for my new bottom bracket to arrive along with my new seat post and pegs so i’m i’m the bench for a few days, your videos along with panza and billy are keeping me going 🤣

Back to basics! Love this video man... as someone who is older and just starting to ride BMX this was really helpful. Subbed!

great tutorial dude, well explained and realistic for us noobs keep up good work..

more of this. i used to ride 11 years ago. Bought a bike recently getting back into it. SO PLZ more of this. super helpful. You are a joy to watch!

I really liked your lighthearted approach to teaching basic BMX tricks. Not only did you make it easy to understand but you were doing things that no other video had talked about, so well done for giving some cool and basic ideas to building up your trick repertoire. Greetings from Australia 🦘🇭🇲

literally just getting back into bmx since 10 years, i broke both my knees, and i was always afraid to start again, instead of dirttracks ill keep it on the street this time tho, so this is a great help man!!

Good tutorial! It is different from the others, gonna try some of those things to improve my bike control!

When your a pro bmx rider but still watch this video because you love Spencer

Just starting BMX after having skateboarded my entire life, but having issues with my pushoff foot. But I still yern to just cruise around downtown, and search for sick spots to hit. It sucks not being good physically like I used to. I'm 38, and REALLY falling in love with BMX! This video is a GREAT help. Thank you.

Great video Spencer, you reminded me of some tricks I've forgotten. I definitely would like to see another one with slightly more advanced tricks. And keep stepping it up from there, that way everyone will benefit. Thanks for the video bro!

Nice video you should do more how-to videos!

step 1: bunny hop and ride a curb double tire. me in youtube search engine: how to bunny hop. i know it’s bad.😂

It's been a couple years since I saw this video but I did give these things a shot although granted haven't been able to spend much time BMXing here in Scotland for all kinds of reasons. One thing I did was get a bottle and just "kick" it around with my bike in different ways, hitting it with the tyres. It was really fun, helped me learn some of the intricate stuff for bike control. By the end of the night (yes, one night) I went from just being ok with that kind of stuff to really having fun with it. I was whipping the bottle with my back wheel and shit. I left at 2am and came back to my flat at 5 or 6am. Some of the reactions were quite good where I was too, drunk people stopping to watch me and shit haha. Keep doing you Spencer and thanks for making this video!

I really like this video bro, thank you. I have been trying to teach my boy how to ride a bike & I kept running into trouble with ideas on where/how to begin, (outside of the basic manuals/side to side bike shifts). This video was literally PERFECT for showing some basic rudiments to practice on without putting ur neck in jeopardy. Please do make more like this if ur able 😁👍🏻

7:41 You missed the perfect chance to put "for whom the bell tolls" in there bruh.

do a video on how to set up your bike to suit your riding style.. position and width of the bars , seat height .. that sort of stuff

Cheers Spencer, I just started riding BMX this year, and appreciate you putting time into this. Unfortunately I slid off the side of a quarter pipe last night, when the park was still wet after rain, and hit my knee pretty hard so it's couch & youtube for the next couple weeks. Kids, wear pads! I could have been riding right now, IF ONLY I HAD FOLLOWED MR FORESMAN'S ADVICE!

I laughed, I cried, and I became inspired. Thanks so much!

“Don’t baby your bikes!” You then see a kid that has a bmx bike that watched this video and he’s running it over with a car I was cracking my self up 😂

00:47 anyone see the squirrel in the background?

just got my first bike in like, 15 years, i’m so stoked. thanks for this video man this is perfect

Awesome... I am 40 yrs old bmx dirt rider... getting all my 4 kids high end bmx bikes for xmas and also bought myself a nice Stranger... but this video was perfect for me seeing how I didn't do a lot of free style stuff when I was a kid... also going to be building a full quarter pipe... so great video and you super funny as well.

nice video, exactly my level

Spins! 180s and 360s.

34, and I just got a bike a couple weeks ago! Great tips, you broke it down so simple! Definitely have some ideas as to where to start!

Hey man I've been biking for a few years with different bikes I've been buying better and better bikes to work up to the more complicated tricks and I had no clue these tricks were out there to help me gain more control over my bike thank you man u have such a good attitude when it come to biking honestly we need more ppl like you in this world thank you man keep up the good work

Anyone notice the squirrel run across in the background? 😂😂

Tip. When jumping over a curb don’t hit your back wheel òn it when bunny hoping unless u wanna fly over the bars ( learnt the hard way)

This is good it's about time someone took the time off to show you how to ride BMX bike. I myself always wanted to learn how to do tricks on the BMX bike. So now this is my chance to learn I'm a beginner. I've been seeing guys do tricks on the BMX bikes and it's a beautiful thing. Especially when someone is very skilled and good. Thanks a lot my brother I will be looking at all your stuff.

Thanks a lot. I may not have the BMX tricks, but I love the instant response it gives me when I'm pulling into my driveway at like 10 MPH or so. I really appreciate your tutorial. I'm still trying to get better air on my bunny hops, but whatever. I love the freedom BMX gives me. I ride Haro Bikes--like BMX Pro Mike Gray, or Grey. Thanks again, Mike

I'm 42 I got myself a bike 3 weeks ago and have a bag of tricks on my bucket list to cross out 👊💯, You are a gift to bmx ing

How to overcome fear of barspins? I can do pullup bars but not hop bar

Gotta love the SPOT swag you always got on. Hometown pride

I’ve watched this so many times for motivation. Great vid man

The squirrel at 0:47

what helmet is that? mine is big as shit and uncomfortable as heck

Had a lot of funwatching this one, thanks Spencer! :) Always thought, nah, I'm not doing any tricks ecept a 180 - but everything you did in this video is everything I do alwyas I'm out there and riding :D

Omg thanks dude this helped me a lot I've just go a new bmx and this helped me I subscribed thanks dude this gave me so much confidence 😊

I feel your personality can make an video topic cool af #fuckinglemonade

First ayyy love the vid

Got into this about a month ago. Love it!!!! Thanks for the video much appreciate

Awesome! Thanks! I just got bmx and practicing on it slowly, and I was wondering on what to start first.

I wonder what you sounded like before puberty

Please keep making videos targeted to beginners. All the other beginner videos are the same shit every time. Your video had some different tricks and things to try along with the classics.

I was prolly like 15 and 16 when I first watched this quarter conscious and now im 20 just bought a bmx and now im gonna try to commit to this, this very nostalgic I hope your doing good !!

I've been riding bmx almost daily for 15 years and this is a great video for beginners man,,good job on it!! Subbed!!

I have been riding for a year and just learned to flat 360 barely and I'm really bad

I was just about to comment last night when the transformer outside my apartment got struck by lightning and the power went out. Freaking loud. My ears were ringing. Any way, I just got a new bike and have only been riding for about a week (when it hasn't been raining). I've mainly been thinking of BMX as just exercise. I tried to do some of the harder tricks but got discouraged, but because of this video I'm now focusing only on having fun, hoping, and balance and I'm already seeing improvements. I can sometimes high hop now. Thank you for reminding me to have fun with this. Thank you for posting this video, and thank you Spencer! :)

I haven't ridden in 12 years when sprockets were averaging 33-39T, this vid gave me a good basic refresher for bike control

that BACKFLIP THOOOOOOOOO!!!!🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥

I wasn't sure if I wanted to get back into BMX ,I think you just inspired me man

these beginner videos are great thank for pointing me in the right direction

I know these vids might be basic or boring for u to do, but I can’t tell u how much you have helped me in my progress. I’ve watched ur tutorial videos many times ✌🏼👍🏼✌🏼

good stuff, Spencer. I like your positive attitude. This video was entertaining, helpful, and funny. It's also refreshing to see a BMX video without constant F-bombs. Keep it up.

I’m 48,just bought a. BMX and done it up,now I’m gonna start some tricks,great video 👍

"If you are crashing launch it, don't baby your bike" haha best advise ever. I need that on a t-shirt lol

Dude,your hilarious. Great idea for a video. Keep em coming

You get a like and sub for being the only BMX youtuber I've seen heavily promoting helmet use. I've saved my life and limb plenty of times with helmets and pads!

These Videos definitely make you the best bmx Vlogger! thnx

love the video man, nicely laid back and not too serious

...the back flip at 5.45 was my favourite......you make me laugh.....thankyou

this is the most helpful BMX video i have ever watched.
