01 Hooligan: • This just arrived! 200...

First off, thanks for the shout out at the beginning of your video. I have come across the purple hooligan for sale several times over the years, but the asking price can be steep.
Another great episode! Thanks for doing it right D. Solid content with amazing production as always. This is quality flatland TV. I wish bmx specific content like this was aired on regular TV when I was a kid watching ninja turtles. Anyone(probably just Canadians) remember kokanee ride guide? There was an episode with flatland in it. Watched it in my youth. Shits burnt into my brain, always watched hoping for more. Never came, actually x games dropped flat shortly after that n Whiteski busted out level vibes across the pond.
I had a Mongoose decade, and the matching color Mongoose scooter. Wish i still had them (the baby blue color).
Helltrack…in my neighborhood of NW Calgary Alberta!! I STILL ride the qualifying race along the river a couple times a month at least. The 7-11 and pizzeria are still standing. My wife went to the high school in the movie, bowness high!!!

Wow, if I could just ride that qualifying race one time it would be a dream and you get to do it all the time and that’s 7-Eleven is still there. You should make a video put it on KZread. I guarantee so many people would love to see it.
Thank you Derek for this awesome video and for repping the tshirt!! Best wishes from Vienna!

@@MidSchoolFool Fun fact, my first BMX bike was a Mongoose Menace in 2005. It was anything but a flatland bike, however I loved every second with that bike. Thanks for covering these topics Derek! Just posted it on the 4P blog.

@@Fourpegsbmx Heck Yes! the possibilities were endless back in those days.
Holy crap. I honestly just realized that I have the 2001 Hooligan frame in my garage. Still have the crazy BB - but I couldn’t find the properly sized brake mounts for the rear brakes. Maybe I’ll send you a pic via IG.

Someone else asked, but I'd be curious if a pro over rode one of these. Seen pictures of them sitting, but not shredding! That is super rad though, piece of gold there!
Hi, I just bought the supergoose reissue complete bike and I want to switch the frame and forks out with a 1983 pro class. Does anyone know if that’s possible?
I've got the 2001 Hooligan a few months ago, two or three pop up from Japan. I would love to know if there were any pro flatland riders competing with it ?

@@MidSchoolFool I will show it on my channel in the future. I have about a hundred bikes in my collection and it takes time to showcase them all. Be patient.
