He's the original dick that the x-games sucked! Probably the only one that deserved it for how much he slayed in every event.

I love the cover of Chainsmoke that shows his race face. Back then I thought "Nows there's some aggression." and adopted it in race runs. I discovered that racing with aggression makes me go faster than racing with... whatever the hell ran through my head up to then. Thank you Napalm.

At the 1996 World Champs he came second to Nico by less than 0.2 of a second. You know, if he had just worn a skinsuit that day...

One of my favorite quotes, and most personally quoted is by Palmer - "I think it's rad when Balls beats Natural Talent" And he had lots of both.

Also, I think it's awesome that they credit Shawn Farmer as Rapper. Pretty funny

Pastranna is good and deserves respect, But Palm did it first and with his own dirtbag style.

That bike race was against Hermann Maeir? Maier was one of the ultimate badasses himself - a very very tough man. Check out 0.40 to 1.05:

This looks awesome. I remember how he made me want to ride like a badass when I saw him in the original chainsmoke video back in 19-whatever and I was riding XC and then I was stoked to do a shuttle ride with him in Tahoe a few years later. I'd like to see him take another shot at MTB racing.

That was a 20 min rough cut, this is a 45 minute feature on him - that's a lot of extra film in there. Should be a good one.
