If you are an alcoholic or drug addict like I am you should know that you can’t go a year or 2 or 20 and then start drinking or using again and magically be not a alcoholic or addict . Every time we stop and then eventually relapse or start back up again it’s always worse never better. It is a known fact of addicts and alcoholics that the brain remembers and reverts right back to its old was every time because it triggers the reward system in the brain. I’m in the same boat trying to stop my old ways by buying a new bike and pick up ridding my bike again life was so much better when I road every day instead of using. Bmx gave me true happiness partying never did only hell. I love this channel it’s giving me back the bmx itch again! Please keep it coming thanks
I just don’t understand how every possible frame, parts, and energy drink sponsor hasn’t gotten on their knees for Tyler throwing their highest partnership options at him considering how much he’s been riding, the level and his history. If I owned a brand I would see this guy as the best investment in the entire industry.
Such a gentle soul in such a gnarly rider. Hes very humble and blame all on himself but i just wanna point out from experience that all the mental issues didnt come out of the blue because brain and spinal injuries plays a huge part in it. When your mind is mechanically messed up its very difficult to live think straight and find meaning but nevertheless through dedication and willpower its possible to recover as tyler exemplifies. Glad he also mentions psychedelic because they are really helpful in terms of rewiring an injured brain, well any brain for that matter, and unlocking your destiny. Much love and appreciation tyler xoxo
Tyler's tmv part is one of the best parts to ever exist. Makes riding look fun while still having all the big sends. I take people to the gap ice in ann arbor every time we're there just to stay humble. Keep killing it man!
@@antoniohatch5170 you might still be able to buy it online from alex Burnside. As far as the gap icepick it's at the end of a line in the beginning part if the video. They go over the part in this interview.
Honestly didn't know much about Tyler before just recently. He's obviously a talented bike rider, but the guy seems like a genuinely good person too. It's important to hear guys like him talk about his challenges, especially the pathological drinking and risk taking. Takes a lot of strength to be vulnerable like that. Also, funny to hear Dennis be cagey about where that SD bridge spot is lol.
Respect man! You are one of most talented riders in BMX. I have also dealt with addiction and self medicating issues. Not alcohol, but a decade of my life I was addicted to opiates (including heroin) which had spurts of speed and other stuff. Started with a car accident and being prescribed oxy. Ruined my life. Took everything and lost so many friends and people that cared. I have been clean no 10 years and life is good again so stick with it man. Life will continue to get better for you!
Been there myself I think there is a lot of riders out there that are struggling and don’t talk about it because they don’t wanna be judged. But talking about it really helps and can save lives. Glad to hear your still clean I have about the same amount of time as you and it helps hearing that I’m not the only one 🤝
@@mikedevlin_bmx2446 I appreciate all you said and am Glad to hear the same about you! You are definitely not the only one…just one of the few that will speak on it. Keep doing awesome in life man!
I deleted some of my reply somehow but I agree I wish more people would speak on it so others would realize they are not being judged and it’s more common than one thinks. We all have problems and all need help sometimes.
The strength and courage it takes to talk about some of those mental struggles is awesome. HUGE props to Tyler for talking about it. So glad he's doing well, and love watching him ride. #itsOKtonotbeOK
LOVED THIS! Tyler, wow! What a guy! Insane to think of how much you feel like you know a guy just by following him on social media channels from the other side of the world, and with that it has been some serious scary times seeing the state you have been in and the situations surrounding you! But with that I am so thrilled to see you doing so good! The bmx world is definitely more awesome with Tyler in it and riding! Can’t wait to watch more!
every time. they're legends in their own right, but can you please let the guest speak? It's especially painful at the end, when Tyler's sharing some deep realisations and they keep throwing his train of thought off by needing to agree or rephrase what he said in their own words. Interviewing is a skill too, it's not just a natural conversation!
This was a good listen 🙌 I used to be a big fan of Tyler back in the day but stopped following as much once he started slowing down. Glad to see he’s back and happy. Wishing him the best going forward 🙏
The part where Dennis and Tyler bond talking about street being fun and high speed totally made me think of Josh stricker ……. That guy could be a hell of a guest
great convo. Tyler is an inspiration for sure. glad he's doing well and hope to see him shredding more. the audio is a bit blown out on this one, crackly in places. maybe too much gain? seems louder than need be. S4 wagon 😍
Kinda tone def for Dennis to rip a beer in front of Tyler and then mention the possibility of Tyler being able to drink again. Show some respect for a guy who’s worked hard at being a better person through struggling with drinking.
A tail as old as time. Seems to be a lot of red bull athletes that go down this path. I am happy when they pick them self up and rediscover the passion again. On the Skis is a guy named Nick Geopper is a very similar story. It’s sometimes nice to rout for that underdog. I truly hope it works out for him or anyone going down the road of rebuilding. Great interview and production. You guys at our BMX are getting real good at this whole UA-cam long form interview thing. Still waiting on another ad read with the little guy. I know it’s more work for you guys but after I watch the same ad read 3 times I have a habit of skipping over them. Just saying.
Made my day to see Tyler on the podcast. Great to see him healthy & riding. We all rooting for you bro!
The nyjah story was amazing 😂😂
Best ever bitch slap
Dude it straight up sounded like a scene from a fucking movie 🤣. I almost thought nyjah was trolling him or something
Have a time for that Nyjah story, please?

Stay Humble Tyler. You’re one of the greatest to ever pedal a BMX.

Also the hart plaza drop it is 30 feet tall. That thing is ridiculous. The tube he rides on is 5 feet in diameter
Man I still watch his 2014 Markit video all the time, that whole edit is straight bangers
Link? I wanna see this stuff and can't find the video

Loved this one thanks yall
one of the goats of bmx. the redbull silverdome video might be the greatest to this day. legend tyler, keep workin
Get Tyler to be the co-host for a podcast with Stevie Churchill if they are both down!
T hang in the silver dome was gnarly
Sick. Dudes a beast, and I’m stoked to see him shredding hard as fuck rn. Next we need a Stevie resurgence
Love seeing this Tyler seems like such a genuinely good dude wishing all the best for him!
I ripped my guts out with my handlebars in 2021 and Tyler always gives me that childlike desire to ride again🖤
My new favorite rider at this point. He's accountable and seems driven to ride. Things might not go perfect but he seems to have the right mindset.
Can't wait to watch this after work!

Dennis and Ryan are talking more than his guest😢

Awesome episode
great convo. Tyler is an inspiration for sure. glad he's doing well and hope to see him shredding more.

S4 wagon 😍
love you tyler big inspo ❤
such a good pod 🔥
awesome! 🤘🤘
the man!
Kinda tone def for Dennis to rip a beer in front of Tyler and then mention the possibility of Tyler being able to drink again. Show some respect for a guy who’s worked hard at being a better person through struggling with drinking.
good tip at 17:25
Let’s gooo
Top dude.
where is that brown tri level building at, 26 minutes in? I want to see someone ride the top section!!

44:20 I thought the same thing 😂
The bar Ice spot doesn’t exist anymore
nice
Always remember to check your forks and the mirror :)
Max miller did a bar ice on a 17 with a gap at the top in “maxxxed”
im not gonna lie, i just liked this video before i started watching
How do you drink hot beer 😳
Don’t forget your gear!
Someone bar iced el toro
Fudger did that mini-interview with Tyler that one time, might of been on Ride account
