Were the kids observing Dad doing this video?
Would love to read the little thought bubbles of what they were thinking!!:D
Great video Russ, love your imagination!:toast:

No. They were at school. I really don't do any vid stuff when their around - there's no time :)

But I think they've come to realize that I'm a freak. It seems that whenever we go into Walmart I automatically switch over to Rufus Durdens voice. I try to "git them to play along" and even suggested that I should buy an old "fishin truck" and each of us a pair of bib overalls, some correctly bent brimmed baseball caps and some WWE / RAW shirts and it'll be like our "Walmart trip" car and uniforms but they are still too concerned with what their friends would think if they saw them.

If they only knew what it took me way too many years to learn - have fun and don't worry so much (or at all) what these kids think of you. You prolly won't ever see them again after 12th grade :)

Anyone wanna roll up on Walmart with me?

Haha you could always get your son to hit the Reo with that dirtbike Rufus sits on :) haha. Tell a boy to tear something up, I think he'd gladly comply haha.
Or play catch with it, that's something I always wish I could've done with my dad. That is if there is ever a part 2 :p I don't think you could handle a part 2 haha.

I wanted to use the bike to do a burn out on the mod but I gotta tear down and clean the carb on it. I let it sit too long without running the fuel outta the carb. Duh. You think Ida learned that after cleaning our crf50f carbs a few times :).

Playing catch would be cool - especially if I intentionally always miss :)

We sometimes throw baseballs footballs frisbees and shoot pucks around but my boys freakin love basketball. That's all they wanna play anymore so we play together.

And tennis now that it's warming again :)

I keep them outta my vape vids though. Other than that one that my daughter helped me set up my initial studio :)

There will not be a part two. Part one was stressful (but fun) enough. :)

ha, dude that's awesome. yeah I don't think a wood would survive that kind of torture unscathed :p, but I bet it would survive enough to be repairable and continue to vape, especially if it was taped up so no parts got lost :) I've been doing my own woodvil torture testing but mine has been more of the accidental type torture testing. I just dropped it off a 15' balcony this weekend onto a concrete landing and man it would have been nice if it was taped up because it took me like an hour to find the chipped off piece, but it's all repaired and back to work good as new :) I've dropped them and abused them many times and most of the times there was really no damage at all but I don't think I'd go and purposely do one of those fire pit tosses tbh, your nuts :laugh:

These have to be the baddest ayuss mods on the planet.

That tune is off an FMX DVD called DIP 3. The DVD is on in the background of a couple of my vids :). Kickin jams, wild skanks and killer FMX :)

I think my favorite part of the video comes at 14:15. After the fire pit toss, Russ is kind of tossing it around in the grass a bit and then you can't see him, but the REO comes flipping up in the air. That makes me laugh over and over.

Here you go. Set to 14:15

That was fun to do. I was gonna throw it back up on the deck but it woulda put a big gouge in the wood. :)

Thanks Jif :)
