"JIBBING is the name given by producer Thor Wixom to mountain bike riding in the street, at skate parks and at dirt jumps. “Jib” a recent arrival at farkin.net headquarters, is Wixom’s look into the world of mountain biking without the mountains..."

It's called "street"
Exactly! or urban, or almost anything, except for "jib". Anbody using that word needs their head checked (unless they're refering to the name of the vid).

Last time there was an argument about this stuff on Hcor.net, Thor Wixom himself started posting to defend himself! Did a pretty good job too.
BTW I think the jib name is stupid, but who cares, it's opening up the world of mountain biking.

yeah i agree, its farkin nuts. i dont have the guts required, or the desire to attempt such rediculous feats, especially without a helmet

just watched that...those stair gpas are farkin' huge.
You're right josh, right at the end, how the hell did that guy walk away from that stack?
He hit the stairs, bounced, slid over the flat section then slid down some more stairs all on his side :shock:
I would have at least expected a few broekn bones in there somewhere?! When i first saw it my first reaction was Holy Crapola ambulance time for him. Scary stuff.
