Drifting in a car takes a lot of skill, drifting in a motorcycle is something else and this guy has complete control over his machine and smoothly gliding it around corners and balancing it on all different angles. Jorian Ponomareff is one hell of a rider and I wish had 10% of the skill he has with these machines, there is another video below showing his skill as a rider and capabilities, watching these videos gives me chills. Curious to try but not dumb enough to risk it, I know my limits.
Stunting takes a certain level of skill and on a motorcycle you have to be very skilled, and that rider is Rok Bagoros. Such control of the machine is amazing and also the build of this KTM Duke 125 does help to perform these stunts, very cool.
The last thing I would think is anyone using a Vespa for stunting in a skate park, but Boulon from Marseille does just that with a delicate skill. The legendary bowl of Marseille with his Vespa he rides arounds corners and through the basin smoothly and getting it over just right, I would probably crash it trying to go to fast, the taping of the video is fantastic.
I can never get enough of Chris Pfieffer, he knows how to pull off these crazy stunts, and he makes it look so easy. He is THE corporate two wheeled hooligan and BMW loves him for it. I for one admit that I don’t have the balls to pull a wheelie, I always think I’m going to flip back but I hope one day that I learn how.
ICON – Shinobi
Skills such as these are not human, the control he has on the bike is nothing short of mind bending. If you would take the Tazmanian Devil and stick him in a human being then it would Shin Kinoshita. A Man of little words but his riding and stunting skills speak for him. I love these ICON videos, it takes a hell of a lot of practice to pull of what he is doing. The balance, the turning, the momentum, mind numbing. I don’t have the guts to try some of that stuff, my heart jumps when I pull a wheelie, this guy is waving and bouncing this very large motorcycle around like it’s his third limb. More ICON videos please.

I’m not the biggest fan of stunting, but I always have respect for those who perfected those skills. These guys are pulling wheelies, and insane stunts to perfection. ICON has put together a very cool set of videos on some of the best stunters around, I love the videography, I wonder how they mounted some of the cameras to the machines, and the control these guys have of their machines is amazing.
I always knew that Dubai got really tough on traffic laws over the years. I even experienced it myself with all those cameras so I even opted out from driving in Dubai due to my speeding. But this video is just something else, I would never expect to see this in the UAE, burnouts, doughnuts, stunting and all kinds of driving ridiculousness. And if it did happen then the police would come down very hard on them. If you have too many traffic violations the cops even come to you to impound your car, but burn outs in the middle of the high and stunting is not something I would expect to see in the UAE, Kuwait yes, Saudi definitely, UAE didn’t think so
This is as crazy as it gets, offroading, tricking, stunts, on every object and road that you can find. Julien Dupond is one of those underground riders that is known for his insane skills, and he makes mistakes from what you can see int he videos but his precision is what makes him amazing. Some stunts twist and destroy his bike because of what he is doing to keep his balance, stunts in the middle of the road, just pure insanity and this type of skill is something you are born with. Just check out the videos.
Chris Pfeiffer is a stunter that I have spoken about again and again, he is an amazing rider with amazing skills. Seems like he took those skills to the snow, and he is handling this Snowcat like an off-road machine in the dirt. Looks like a lot of fun, he is controlling that machine like its a walk in the park, even when he falls in the snow it looks like fun. I want to see more of this guy doing those amazing stunts, and I hope BMW keeps pushing the limits and making interesting videos and machines.

I spoken about Chris Pfeiffer multiple times at this point and he has one multiple championships as one the best stunt riders out there and this just proves the point. He takes the BMW F 800 R to the BMW Headquarters and basically goes nuts, takes it all the way to the top of the tower, and the best part is the blank look of the employees at BMW. This is what I like about BMW even though they are very systematic, there is thing about them that goes wild with their ideas every once in a while and I think Chris just proved that point, loved the flip at the end.
