Hello Goons and Gals
In 1994 two independent filmmakers and a handful of rebels got together and created the most brash and unapologetic motocross film of all time. The video would spawn a brand new sport and revolutionize what we know today as freestyle motocross. This is a story of how Crusty Demons Of Dirt created a multi-billion dollar empire out of thin air.
Hope you like this one it took a while to put together

This was absolutely brilliant. Thank you for creating such an epic documentary.
What a time it was to be alive.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Times were simpler then, and the soundtracks are all time. All my friends and I watched these movies even though I have never ridden a dirtbike in my life.
So damn good mate, but ya buggered up, its band face to face song disconnected in terrafirma 2👌
The best. From San Diego it was either Glamis or Havasu….
Too much fun
Best memories 🤙
Every 40ish dude in the comments knows what this really means. It’s a time we will never see again.
Well said brother
We won't see it again because we're not as tough as we thought we were, we've allowed things to go soft and woke as a whole. Hard men created good times, and good times has created weakness.
Crustys shaped my music taste, what I think is fun, and my life to a degree. In my first year of high school, I asked the big wild kid who had a reputation for being nuts what he was listening to. He loaned me one headphone and it was "The fightback" by Superheist. I was like hey that's from Crustys 9. He said that's how he first heard it. 15 years later I was the best man at his wedding.
Sweet! Thanks for watching
@@Mortarman0341 she hasn't tamed him in the slightest 😂
Me too, I am 59 now and still love all the music. It completely changed my perspective on music and life.
Crusty demons absolutely shaped my taste in music. It is one of the most influential things I've ever encountered
That’s awesome man 👌🏼
I was an skateboarder at that exact moment in time. Heck I remember that we were all together, skateboarders, snowboarders, motor bikers, BMX. All of us listening to underground punk rock, heavy metal and alternative rock; we even dressed alike. What a time to be alive...
yep the best of times
@Naes Galaxy, it was a cultural movement you clown.
You forgot surfers all a collective think tank on drugs and alcohol created the one era which MX , FMX , BMX, Surfing , Snowboarding and Skating ( Sk8ing which was already the stamp of creativity along with BMX) All created the push of what we see today.
I bet. Love & respect
@@scotthorban7369, yeah, I even wore some Quicksilver and Rip Curl stuff back in the day.
This type of content is peak UA-cam. Long form love letters created by people who are so truly passionate about something they can’t help but share its history and importance. I don’t give a shit about motoX but for 34 minutes you made it the most interesting thing in the world to me. Really amazing work.
thank you for the kind words I appreciate that
Well put!
love letters...could you be more cringe?
I love this!
@@jjaxs1571 yeah he could be you
I was at X games when Travis jumped into the bay.... I could see myself and my buddy Eric in the front row of the grandstands going crazy in this video. I was a poser in the 90s as well and Crusty was on at all times. Thank you for this it made me smile a lot. :)
That's so cool. I remember all of these moments vividly . They definitely shaped my life.
Holyshit.. I havent heard POSER since high school.. the 90s..
Terafirma did it first for me, but between that and Crustys it totally moulded who I was back then and I remain that way today. The music, the 90s dirt bikes. Thank god I grew up before mobile phones and social media, a time where relationships and activities took work and as a result were rewarding. Nostalgia makes me sad but it was truly a fantastic time.
best times to be a dirtbiker
100%Agreed!
Bingo junior.
Yes Terafirma
This is why I don't use social media. Outside of UA-cam
What a fucking treat bro, I still have all 3 crusty videos on vhs. That era made me into the offroad rider I am today as well as both my teenage daughters..what a time to grow up in the 90s riding dirt bikes and being hated by all your neighbors. Huge parties and racing with hangovers..love it!!
All the way from South Africa..
Thank you
Name a better life I'll wait!! Dirt bikes for life
@@youtubeuser-jz7kv I'm closing in on 40 and have a garage full of them. Ride for life! Just did a 72 mile ride with my 75 year old dad on Fathers Day. It's in my blood.
Never drank a drop since just the smell gives me a strong gag reflex....I've been told that a hangover is similar to as headache...how one can ride hard like that I don't know. I know there are pain killers (aspirin etc) but still.
Guys, Here is The True Savior
YaH The Heavenly FATHER (Genesis 1) HIMSELF was Who they Crucified/Pierced for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF”
From the Ancient Egyptian Semitic:
"Yad He Vav He" is what Moshe (Moses) wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3)
Ancient Egyptian Semitic Direct Translation
Yad - "Behold The Hand"
He - "Behold the Breath"
Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
I feel Crusty Demons paved the way for freestyle and agree with Hart and Partrana being some of the pioneers. Hart’s backflip attempt certainly created a evolution of the sport. Pastrana is one of those that could (almost) always do something on a bike and made things look effortless. I appreciate that Hart or Pastrana did not have fake personas/ a gimmick either.
true I just seen Pastrana do a triple back flip on to a air mat At his age he is attempting triple flips
krusty demons found pastrana fyi, well pastrana found them really lol then his parents were cool enough and let him at like 16 go on tour with krusty demons
You have just describe the 1990's perfectly. Bought a tear to my eye, when you talked about a Saturday morning. put the tape on , load up some bikes go out and send it. even the normal guys, like me instantly went bigger after seeing that movie for the first time. Gen X ... we were the last to know what that time was like & will never be again. Great work man.🤘🤘
Thank you those were the days
Even as a 44 year old, lifelong motorcyclist, I’ve never seen Crusty. Your tribute however has inspired me to see it for myself, as I am enamored of the variety within motorcycle culture historically. Thanks for such an engaging look into this poignant time in history, and for bringing this era to light for me.
Happy Trails!
Thanks for watching Troop
Oh it’s awesome! You’ll love it
If you can, I suggest watching the original VHS copy. The dvd version is a little bit different.
What cave did you ride in your whole life??
I can't even explain how amazing this video was for me to watch... Wow, did you ever capture the nostalgia! You summarized the feeling that I've been chasing my entire life after watching crusty demons. I wanted to move to California and everything (not so much these days 😆). Unbelievable content. I started watching your channel recently with the maico video. You have a serious skill I guarantee your channel will blow up. Instant fan here keep up the good work 🍻.
Absolutely Epic Dude had to watch every second 👊
Thank you
@@BornAGoon 100% bro, you nailed everything 100%. Everything! Bravo! Keep doing what you're doing! Please!❤❤❤
I'll never forget Deegan huckin his bike at a Professional AMA SX race 🤘🤣🤘
he was born to riot
That was awesome!
I was in my 20's back when all of that was happening and if you didn't live in SoCal, you weren't exposed until the first X-Games! I remember watching Metz landing that double backflip and going nuts!
Thanks for bringing the backstory to the younger generation!
Thank you for watching Ramon
I was living in Kauai when it came out. Kauai in the 90's was a dirtbike paradise. No fences, no rules, just miles and miles of awesome trails through the forrest. We watched that tape till it broke! Met a lot of the original CDD dudes when they would come to Kauai for vacay and my DB club would sponsor rides and we would take them to our best trails and stuff. Watched McGrath do some sick stuff. These guys could see lines the average rider couldn't-that is a gift for a dirt biker! Good stuff-
great place to ride in Kauai Thanks for watching
I will never forget going to my buddies house when I was primary school age, and him whipping out the Crusty Demons of Dirt VHS tapes. It blew my mind. I already loved dirtbikes and it just was magnificent. I've grown up riding motorbikes ever since, road, dirt, didn't matter. I just love motorcycles. Thanks Crusty Demons.
Phenomenal video, couldn't stop watching. Even though I was a more purist MX wanna be and didn't like the Mulisha angle at first, nobody can forget the jaw drop at Seth's jump. Still blows me away today and I'm glad to have been alive to see this time in the MX scene.
Thanks for the kind words Greg
I started racing moto in '96. And had been into the sport since 94 so this stuff is right up my alley. I'm now 37 and have a few bikes. Street and track. But all from the 90s and 00s. Met a few of the "lesser known" stars over the years through different events or acquaintances. And when I started racing I was riding Mike healeys old '84 rm 80 a guy I know brought with him from California to Arkansas. That's all 💯 guys! Love 90s moto and everything that goes with it! This made my Wednesday morning before work for sure!
Those were the good times
This was awesome and nostalgic. My older brothers were in high-school in the late 90's and I was 6-9. They'd pick me up from school in a lifted 78 Ford F150. We'd watch these VHS's until dad came home about 5:30. I'm 32 now. About 4yrs ago I snagged up a 02 KX100 for a learner bike. I do a lot of slow technical woods riding with tons of backroads cruising and adventure. In 2020 bought a brand new YZ250X (obviously had to be a 2 stroke). Thank you for the blast from the past
As A 54 yo guy from Uk 🇬🇧..
This was so flipping awesome,me and my mates would get some beers at our home and watch this VHS 📼 video.
We would just dream of been in these wonderful locations..
Epic..
Thank you for watching
I hear ya. Am 53 and in north west Europe. Used to go to the coastal dunes in CA in the late 80s. You could rent bikes and ATVs and ride the dunes all day.
Im 55 in the UK got my 1st bike when I was 15, I live in the N/E of England, we used to ride in a local quarry about 30 of us trying to out do each other in madness. This was the 80's. We all kept on riding into the early 90's until sadly one of my best mates was killed by someone in a stolen car. Until then they were the best years of my life. Despite the broken bones & injuries. This brought it all home for me. The Sun's shining outside right now & all I feel like doing is jumping on a bike & going for it again.
Once in a while someone with true talent at writing, editing and commentary comes along. Mr Goon's passion for that knarly left turn moto took in the 90s blasts out in perfect harmony. Well done, loved it, can't wait to watch more.
easily one of the biggest hits of nostalgia i've had in a minute
thank you Nick
Crusty vids literally changed my life ans got me into dirt bikes. I was into bmx untill 1 day it was raining and my friend told me to rent crusty demons of dirt video tape....I did and its about 25 years later and I still have the same love and passion I did for dirt bikes in 1999. No feeling in the world like the freedom of being on motocross bike.
thanks for sharing
Yup, these videos live rent free in my brain. Probably one of the only VHS tapes worthy of wearing out during high school. Pretty sure I rented one every other weekend for a year. Seth Enslow's ragdoll segment may be one of the most famous pieces of film ever.
It was the best seen ever That dude was nuts
The 90’s and 2000’s was just a singularity of awesome. Movies, music, comedy, sports, technology, it was meteoric in how drastically and quickly everything got better. Before it all went to hell anyway..
We had fun back then.
Man I enjoyed your video! Absolutely epic. So well written and narrated. 10/10 Love from South Africa 🇿🇦
Thank you for watching Jacques
... This all happened in my young riding motocross years.
2 movies that marked a place in time.
1. On Any Sunday.
2. Crusty Demons or Dirt.
Thanks for the video.
.
Loved this flashback,
I haven’t watched Crusty 1 in while. I still think it’s the best one.
I remember recording it for my friend on a long minute VHS so I could fit it on one tape 3x so we didn’t have to keep rewinding it😆
The music literally changed our lives, we were metal heads and just loved the new sound we were hearing, we literally called it Crusty Music and went on to discover a whole new genre. I am so glad and grateful that I was able to experience that era and ride dirt bikes. I am 59 now and still ride and play all the same music.
those were the days
This was an epic trip down memory lane. Brought back my whole childhood. Thank you 🙏
Edit: That Jeremy Lusk dying doing a backflip was brutal, he was one of my favorite riders. Same with Pat Casey. And I would be remiss if I didnt mention Dave Mirra. Dave Mirra and Jeremy McGrath were my first 2 favorite riders ever. R.I.P. Dave Mirra
My weekends as a kid:
1. Watch Crusty
2. Ride all day
3. Shower
4. Watch Crusty again while bench racing about the day’s events while blowing dirt filled boogers.
5. Fall asleep while loading tear-offs on goggles and planning Sunday’s ride.
6. Sleep, rinse, repeat.
Braaaahp!!!
Nice deep dive into the life changing progression of the accessible side of dirtbike riding and how we ate up every second of it!
that is how it went
i came from the generation after them. was close to being a professional moto/supercross rider. watching them progress gave me motivation to keep pushing forward. Sadly though the system it self and a mentally ill mother who was the one allowed to decide if i could race professionally instead of my father, she said no. Still im grateful for anyone who rides and understands the beauty of it. All riders and all fans. Its the American sport in my eyes
This took me back to being a kid and my obsession's with all of these riders and getting to witness the progression first hand. I remember carey's first backflip and then I remember being on the phone with my best friend when we watched travis' double backflip and us both saying we just witnessed history and will never forget this moment. That friend is no longer here but I still love that memory of us on the phone losing our minds as kids.
What a story Those were the good days
@@BornAGoon Definitely were!
Crusty is definitely the reason I have a motorcycle obsession, currently owning "only" 2 but love them like my childs :D
I am not afraid to say that I had to wipe away a couple nostalgia tears. The documentary is amazing, perfectly captured the feel of the era and explained it perfectly. I grew up in a family of 7, we moved to 42 acres of bushland in 1995. I was 5 years old and my brother was 8, I had a 1995 Yamaha PW50 and my brother had a 1985 Yamaha DT80 ( I still have the DT80, we kept it in the family, it is sitting behind me as I type this).
We would watch Crusty Demons 1 all the time, before school, before riding, any time we had 30 minutes to spare. We would then ride as hard as we could and hit the biggest hills. We progressed and I got the DT80 and my brother got a 1989 DT175, it was late 1990s, but it was all we could afford at the time, sponsored by Dad, haha. My brother went onto doing freestyle competitions in the 2000s on his YZ250 2 stroke.
He ended up having kids and settling down, still rides, has a KTM 450 these days. I have a 2002 YZR YZ250 WRN . It is a street registerable 2 stroke model that was made for the Australian market only. It is the normal YZ race bike with a road compliance plate stuck onto it. Makes for an interesting bike to use in town since it has no lock, no reserve and no stand. Still requires a small digital speedo, led brake light and a numberplate fitted to be legal but I dont mind.
Just wanted to thank you for transporting me back in time, I will share this with my brother.
Thank you for the kind words
My God we were nuts ! Im 51 years old. Can barley get out of bed and walk with a limp. Glamis and ocotillo every weekend ! Thank You for putting this together!🤘🏻
Thanks for sharing!!
Skates, bikes, jumps and the people that did incredible things yesteryear vs the dopamine drones of today?
Another great video.
Thank you TriAngles
@@BornAGoon Wedged the sides of my foot between pavement and bike in a corner during supermoto training couple of weeks ago. Then 5 days later still went out to track-day on my R1 despite the discomfort. Not smart. The next day Doc informed me that my foot was broken. Not allowed to ride, drive nor place weight on it for the next 4-6 weeks.
Your videos are now more important than ever while I wait in cast...
DUDE!!!! Loved this this brings me back. You said everything perfect. I remember calling and ordering my OG Mulisha hat and stickers.
no doubt lol Thanks for watching Gary
This was a great historical journey. I just got into Supercross (now Supermotocross) in the last couple of years and finding great videos like this that help catch me up is awesome 🤙. Thanks, Dude 🤜
Great to hear!
We were in Auto shop in highschool one day and we didn’t have much to do and the teacher didn’t want to do anything either. One student said I have a video we can watch, and ram to his car and brought back Crusty Demons Of Dirt. The entire class was blown away by it, and I wanted more!
best day of school
The golden age of motocross man. I'm still stuck in this age and I was only 5 and remember seeing this. I wish this was the culture still, but the world we grew up in no longer exist.
in 1999 I was twenty years old, I had been riding a dirt bike since I was 8 years old and I got my first rally car when I was 10 years old. What you said in the awesome video of yours also kind of happened to me too as you might have guessed(lol), the ride was wild to say the least and still continues today. Crusty demons of dirt has brought only joy to my life, although I have been taking hard painkillers daily for 23 years but who f🦆 cares. lol
Greetings from Finland 🇫🇮 and thank you for this so important video you made with style, I appreciate it so much.
@JJOV00
Born in 69 myself old man.
I think I was 11? when I got my first bike.
I raced a few years, but was only riding for fun when curtsy's came out.
Seth was like a anti-hero to me. That is how I felt my riding skill was like.
The faster guys, just seemed to be at a higher skill level than I was, but I had an aggressive IDGAF
that I could push at times.
I did race mini sprints for 2 years, now I only play.
Your story kind of mirrored mine, so I thought i'd share.
No b.s. I just stopped eating pills 2 yrs ago. (mine and whoever else's i could find)
Take care old timer.
was that a drug thing or bad injury?
I broke so many bones back then. Best time of my life.
Yea that happened lol
Truly well put together video. Crusty Demon's of Dirt was such a massive part of my younger years shaping my musical taste and style throughout high school. This was very nostalgic.
Crusty demons is why I bought a 2stroke and called my dog Seth. Some of the best times in my life.
sweet you named your dog Seth
You nailed this one. And for us who are still living in the belly of the beast, California is still cool, it's the politicians that suck.
Thank you
Hallelujah!
You got a new subscriber! I was laughing out loud at your explanations of everything, I grew up watching the original Crusty Demons on VHS over and over again in 9th grade right when I started riding, and have been following all these riders since then. Your video and commentary was great, nailed everything 😁👌🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
thank you I appreciate that
Crusty demons and huevos shaped my childhood and how I took riding. I loved riding tight wooded trails on my old 70s enduro. I was always breaking that old bike. I loved every second from both of those series.
🤘🏻Demons was awesome. I was 16 and just bought a yz125. I’ve got some scars! Maybe a little head trauma too.
Right on Long live Crusty
Very well done! The 90's, how lucky we were to have lived to witness these things as they were happening! Carey Hart totally gets credit. To say less is to Blaspheme not just him, but all of the amazing pioneers of this sport. RIP Pat Casey.
those were the good days
The memoriam of the late riders at the end was an honorable thing to do. Thanks for another great video & enlightening us on what catapulted the freestyle MX sport 🙂
Wow! Great mini doc! Excellent job man! What a time it was for sure!
Great video, man! This brought back a lot of memories for me. My Crusty story is that I worked at the facility where Jon Freeman edited Crusty 1 and 2 and we made all the VHS copies that were sold. At the time, I had no idea how it would impact the industry but I had been riding dirt bikes my whole life and I had never seen such crazy stuff before. As an 18-19 year old kid, it was super cool to be a small part of it. Anyway, thanks for the trip down memory lane…✌️😎
Travis is the only person to do a real 360. Off axis backflips don't count!!!!
I just saw him do a triple back flip on to a air pad
Almost everybody in this comment section graduated from high school between 97'-01' in SoCal.
07
I'm not a rider or a bike enthusiast but i still got captivated by your video and thoroughly enjoyed every single second of it! Great story-telling!
Great video. Thanks for including the tribute at the end. Sad to see how many of these guys we have lost.
MOTO XXX
This was an awesome video! 🔥 Nicely done, would love to see more like this! 👍
This video was so well put together. Thank you.
This is pure gold. Thank you for making this.
That was awesome. I grew up with these videos in Australia - we all had crappy bikes but we sent them bigger than we should have, because of these legends. It was such an awesome time. Crusty 1 started it all, and for me, Terrafirma 4 was my fav with the best soundtrack of them all. Cheers!
He's absolutely right about the time. That tape, and full metal trip really were incredible for a teenager having fun on dirt bikes.
As someone who grew up going to crusty demons shows, watching the dvd’s over and over, this was an awesome trip down memory lane. Thanks so much for this video.
Awesome vid man!! You really summed up my childhood dreams in this vid. I remember watching that and then going riding and trying new stuff on my bike and later putting headphones in my helmet so i could jam out while riding 😂😂 best days of my life and i have never forgotten these guys!!
Awesome work on this documentary dude. Glad it showed up in my recommended. 👍
Born A Goon, you've nailed it again 💪 Thanks for the nostalgia trip and keep up the great work.
Thanks for this, man! Cheers from Brazil ♥
Man this is by far your best video, so many memories as a kid came flooding back, I remember sitting like 7 inches from the TV absolutely mesmerized by Crusty Demons the first time I saw that video, it pushed me to getting a job that summer after school just to save up for my first 125....
Excellent video mate, Crusty was an absolute foundation of my life. Will never forget that. You missed an Aussie FMX champ in the memorial section though, Tyrone Gilks. He was a multi record holder, many times over for both distance jumping and youngest backflip. Gone but never forgotten.
Dude you nailed it with this vid. Thank you for making this, simply epic. When Crusty first dropped I was racing cars but some mates I use to race with were into racing dirt bikes. This VHS was at every party we had and inspired us all to go that little bit faster and push those boundaries. Was a remarkable time!
those were the days Thanks for watching Glen
It’s crazy how different of a person I am compared to the people who were part of Crusty, but yet how inspirational the crusty videos were to me in a strange way. I have so much nostalgia any time these videos are brought up.
Awesome video! Getting the videos that ya spoke about. Merry Christmas!
Crusty Demons of Dirt was absolutely mind-blowing when it came out and it's still awesome today. Glad you made this little documentary. So cool!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant video! I was totally obsessed with Crusty in the 90s, shaped my love of dirt bikes and my taste in music as well, along with the punk rock ethos.
Fantastic job with that video! I was in my early twenties when a friend of mine showed me the first Crusty movie. It was new at the time. I had never seen anything like it or thought anything like it was possible. I had an XR650L that got lightly used and he had raced mx on an amateur level until tearing an acl and going to college. Anyway, after watching Crusty, we agreed that we were going to a motorcycle dealership and get dirt bikes asap. I was immediately hooked and couldn’t believe how amazing a 250 two stroke mx bike was after getting off of that big old XR. Going riding on the district 34 tracks in New York and places like Southwick, Buds Creek and racing amateur days at places like Unadilla were amazing. And of course when you live in Connecticut, it never rains in Jersey. Winter riding in the pine barons. Loved every moment of it. Thanks for sharing that video. It made me relive some great memories. Cheers! Braaaap!
Congratulations. Thanks for all the energy
The first time I saw Crusty was camping on a riding trip. One of the old dudes brought a big old tube TV and put it next to the camp fire and fired up a generator with a 100' cord and we all watched it. Was probably 10 or 12 at the time and I was absolutely hooked. Me and all the other kids talked the parents in a trip to the dunes next!
you probably went out the next day and hit a 100 footer
Great Video - They also inspired a lot of people beyond dirt bike realm and in other sports. I bought the first Crusty video and watched it numerous times and I was totally blown away but dirt bikes were kind of out of our budget but we did have mountain bikes and it pumped us up into getting downhill bikes and hitting and creating some pretty big jumps and pushing ourselves. Big Thanks.
I love all your video's... but this one takes me back. By far my favorite video amazing work man 🤙🏽🤘🏽
Thanks a ton!
This was either '96 or '97, but I remember taking my dirt bike to the shop to get some work done and figured Id hang out in the service dept while waiting. They had a tv playing some videos and then a box of random VHS tapes, I got to talking with the guy behind the counter, he told me this new video just came out, Crusty 2. So I bought it, got my bike when it was done and went home to watch my new video tape. HOLY SHIT!! Thats all I could think watching it the first 100 times. I was hooked. I bought every Crusty video I could get my hands on, TerraFirma, Steel Roots, etc. I kept a freestyle moto video rolling at all times in my bedroom, It was an amazing time for certain. This video brought back SO many memories, well done!
I think we all said that when we first seen it
I remember watching these videos with my brother and every time we went riding I aspired to get big air. There wasn’t many places in CT that compared to the west coast. There was a place in Rocky Hill, CT we used to call the bone yard that eventually was bought by Tony Lorusso. He turned it into a legit track, but before that it was the only place that anyone could pull in and hit cool doubles, triples, and tabletops. It was insane, I remember being 15ft in the air and looking up at the bottom of someone else’s tires. I guarantee half of us on that track watched Krusty’s video the night before. I’ve also had too many ER visits and trashed bikes thanks to watching those crazy videos.
Thanks so much for making this!
My pleasure!
Absolutely brilliant content! I was locked in from start to finish!
Glad you enjoyed it!
So later on, I bought a boxed set of DVDs. Crusty videos were an event to the crew. Heroes.
Those were the good times
@@BornAGoon Best times. I'm kind of shocked you didn't mention Fresno Smooth. The world sure has changed. I'm not sure we're better for it. Thanks for the video.
@@triple6758 I had about 10 Fezno Smooth clips in that video Loved that tacky film
@@BornAGoon I thought some of the images came from it but you didn't mention in the spot with others so I assumed I was mistaken about what I saw. Yes, tacky and fun film. So awesome.
Absolutely great documentation of the origin of an entire sport! And ultimate respect given with the end of the video paying tribute to the forefathers of freestyle that sacrificed their lives for their craft. Well done.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video! Growing up in East County San Diego Crusty was my holy grail growing up. I loved riding as a kid and once I watched that VHS of these guys going big and partying hard it changed my life forever!!!
this is the best video! So thorough and well documented! Love this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great Video!
Growing up in Germany during the 90s I just realized how little did I know about the history of Freestyle MX. Thanks for filling the gaps.
This was a great documentary - thanks for producing this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You nailed it on this documentary! I always talk stories about how great it was being a teenager in the 90's and growing up in San Diego. The dirt bike and off roading culture made who I am today! Pre runners and dirt bikes was life!
Glad you enjoyed it! I lived in San Diego from 1998 to 2020 Rode Palm Ave almost every weekend until they closed it off
@Born A Goon I actually live in Vegas now and been here for awhile. I ride a 450RL too, and so far June has been a pretty cool month for us! Love watching your videos 🤙
Great video dude thank for the trip down memory lane.
Crusty's bought music and bikes together which made my mates circle huge.
Truly miss the 90's man.
That's awesome! Thanks for watching it
That was sick as man. Bravo my friend. Watched that one with a tear in my eye. Geez i miss the 90s. What a time that was to be alive.
best times ever
Thank you this video really hit home. My buddies and I were in our 20s when this was unfolding and being in Montana, so far from where this was taking place but this was what we were doing, working our asses off during the week and riding and having fun like goons on the weekends. We always had the latest riding video on hand. Not all of us were Seth Enslow or Mike Metzger, but we had fun and made lots of memories! Thanks again for the great video!🤘
those were the good times
This was a brilliant condensed Doc'U. I grew up in the 80s...BMx, Motor Cycles, skiing and Snowmobiles, were our get away from it all. We were all known by the police and that just made it even cooler. Though our parents were pissed. Ya, I know, rebels aren't suppose to have trad. homes... My cousin lived in Orange Co. CA. late 80s early 90s. after H.S. My parents sent me out to CA for the summer to check out schools and visit Saddleback CC. Where I was going to play Baseball... I know I Know.. NOT very rebel. My Cousins step Dad was a GM for a Construction Co.. At this time they were just developing the hills... we'd ride the construction sites after hours and all weekend. His step Dad would get pissed...the fenced in areas we considered an "Attractive Nuisance. If you're from Cali and rode in the mid-late 80's and early 90's you know what I'm talking about. Kids would find empty or new build homes with pools. before occupancy the pools didn't have water, kids would jump the fence and skateboard the pool. We'd find where the fences ended up the hill and get inside the site and rip it up....
Finally my Uncle (my aunts ex) took us to the mountains, eventually the dunes. Ripping up the trails I could hang if not take some of the locals....raised in Michigan, 90% of my free riding was in the woods and what we called "going Frankenstein" if you hit a tree at the speed we were ripping... you and our bike (BMx or Moto Cross) be in pieces. When we hit the dunes I was out of my element. It took me a long time to figure out the speed and sand. trust me I face plant a LOT.
I always find it interesting if not funny..... All these west coast rebels, that smashed against the machine....have become the machine. All the money they have made, yet early days they wanted to rage against the corporate monster... and today. They are the corporate logo and monsters. Good for them. I don't feel bad for them at all
Crusty demons changed my cousin and I from the time we watched it till we quit riding!! We built our own jumps and learned all the tricks from watching those guys. What a crazy time it was!! Brings back a lot of awesome memories!!! Thanks for making this video!!! 🤘👊👍
I always thought it would be great to see a doco about Crusty. Brilliant, well done.
Great video man, I enjoyed every minute of it!
Glad you enjoyed!
Awesome well researched and well presented video bro.
I had the pleasure of seeing the Crusty Demons live many years ago and despite me barely knowing who they were or what they were truly about I enjoyed an amazing show and I still remember witnessing the backflip which was banned in competition at the time.
Amazing video which i enjoyed a lot!!
Man such a good video, thankyou. I feel like the world is guilty of taking these guys for granted nowadays and it was good to be reminded where it all came from.
Goon, thank you once again.
Being a kid in the 90's, I missed out on all the interesting context, backstories, stakes, culture and plotlines around that period of time. Granted, I was single-digit age until the early 2000's, so I'm not mad at myself for being that way.
With that being said, videos like this give someone like me a chance to vividly revisit the period and memories of my childhood armed with the cognitive ability of being an adult. And the one major takeaway I have from so many other videos like yours is knowing that the 90's era of my childhood was absolutely the best decade I could grow up in.
It's just that sometimes I wish I was older back then so I could've appreciated it more in-the-moment. So thank you for giving me a chance to pseudo- do that in a way.
thank you for watching
