I'm a sucker for smooth style, huge extensions and fresh looking bikes

Yeah I said it, Destin Cantrell is dope and once he masters the flip, I think that he'll be one of the top dudes on the contest scene. The crazy thing is that I don't think Destin has even ridden a legit contest. Anyway, check out this video that his brother/manager John Cantrell sent me. There are some note worthy tricks being thrown down, so I listed them below. Be prepared to hit pause, rewind and watch multiple times, all while scratching your head.
• Crazy no footed can to tweak air dealyo around the 2:02 minute mark
• Insane holy man to one handed indy at the 2:27 mark
• Super stalled out rock solid around the 2:55 mark

Leyba is a bitter, retired FMX rider that likes to sit in his cubicle and call the professionals of the sport wussies for not pulling 360s and double backflips. He claims he quit riding FMX before flips were even invented... yeah, right.
Cliff Talley
Making FMX videos exciting is easy. Making them look good is not. Cliff Talley does both of these well and still manages to find enough time to piss off his neighbors with his Travis Barker-esque drum skills.
Chris Tedesco
You've seen his photos on the covers of Transworld, Racer X and more. You've also seen his tequila shooting skills at your local dive bar. Ladies, Chris is single and looking to mingle.
Grant "Goba" O'brien
FMX in Australia wouldn't exist if it weren't for Goba. Well, maybe it would, but it wouldn't be nearly as cool. I don't know why, but we can't quit calling him gobalobadingdong — it just rolls off the tongue.
Tes Sewell
Tes is the dude that's always involved in everything that's going on in FMX. How he does it, we don't know, but that's the reason we hired him to share his plethora of FMX wisdom in the form of a monthly column.
