I think favoritism is why Axell won over Raha. Raha literally back flipped the 140ft double which was already enough to win the whole thing. That took absolute balls just to hit the jump and he BACKFLIPPED IT! The dude is nuts!
100% agree.... hands down raha won that... he even did the transfer off the quarter first.. but I do love Tyler's view on it.. throw the bullshit aside and let's ride
They are both badasses poor Colby. Rich Axex . Making of a good battle on the track
I'm sure that was axells stipulation to coming. Let's be real last year was a bust due to the face Hodges wasn't there
Raha totally should have won in my opinion
"I refuse to inherit someone else's beef" - Tyler Bereman
Colby Raha is insane 🔥
Axell brings the style/finesse and inventive lines, really enjoyable to watch, clean, smooth etc. Raha is just a straight bad ass, balls to the wall savage, that no one can contend with in terms of hucking the craziest shit. They're very different, but both incredible in their own right. Raha is pushing the bar on all these guys though over all I would say.
They both bring so much to the table. But at the end of the day, we just wanna see Jimmy Hill doing no handers
Agreed!
Straight up!!
I think those 2 will be riding together more! Watching Colby and Axell together was the best thing this year!
Raha has no competition he is real moto
Just imagine if Axel and Colby started training together and pushing each other, things would get out of hand.🔥🔥🔥
Tyler Bereman wasn't the mouthpiece for FMX I expected. He did a great job.
"Ultimately" that was the dopest comp and course ever built. Good job TB
New game. Have a drink everytime TB says ultimately.
these podcasts are gold! so interesting to hear insights like this, keep it up bro
Bereman's the man!
Ultimately, at the end of the day it says a lot! TB is a legend! Dudes incredible, this is who kids should look up to.... thanks for the content!
Axel and Colby rivalry is the next generation of Deegan and Pastrana.
It’s interesting to me that it’s reflected culturally. In the 90s it was all about like the clean-cut nice guy vs rough around the edges punk rock. Now it’s 2020s and it all about the “spoiled rich kid” that’s crazy talented vs the gnarly dude that’s had to work multiple jobs and chase a dream to make it happen.
Would you say Axell is a spoiled rich kid?
@@GYPSYTALES It's totally the next Gen of Deegan/Pastrana, I'm a 50 year old freerider on a dirt and mountain bike and there always has been the black hat-white hat rivalries in MX/SX/FMX. I don't think Axel is spoiled per se but he has had all the advantages of money and a Dad and bro in the business. I'm more of a Raha guy because of his style but Axel has skills and the looks to be more commercial rider for TV/Media
Absolutely.
Sure his family may not have been multi millionaires. But look at the life he’s portrayed over the past ~6 years and tell me he’s not a rich kid compared to the average Aussie moto guy.
Yes axel is a spoiled rich kid.
Getting these Vids up so quick now man.
Boss !!!
Tyler is awesome, so good for the sport
Can’t wait to listen to the whole thing🤙🏻
colby is def the underdog.
Awww you guys are so real, I love it.
Kind of like JLaw and RV all over again. Both mad talented. Guess who the industry will side with? The one who is docile and controllable
My vote goes with Colby 100%
Thanks Gypsy!🤘
Axel is mainstream
Raha is a badass
Tyler is a homie u want
Loved imagination everybody going off just egging each other on I've never seen so many riders so amp'd and just going big having fun helping each other and TB has been the catalysts he's a bad dude on a bike but a super good dude. 🤘🏻
Hell ya Berman good job for saying the stuff you said
All 3 of these riders are legends 🔥
Perfectly said TB
Crazy Big!!
Yo TB is the chosen one that has already transcended fmx and it's offsprings to the world and we should give him his roses while he is still here letting it hang. Everyone in the world that loves this unique sport owes s big thank you to twitches wife. If not for her the TB redbull marriage might have never been leaving us in a world with out with out imagination. Thank goodness twitch has influenced all those who bless with this awesome content. SEND IT you huuuuuuuuuurd with love from NY
Way to dig in…. I thought it was an outstanding topic to discuss after watching those two battle it out ✌️
If they didn’t have beef and rivalries it wouldn’t be as intense to watch. It’s the perfect mix now that they can ride together and get along enough to create sweet content but enough rivalry to make it exciting.
Anyone else listen to the podcast on Spotify and then still watch the clips on CZcams?
Bro it’s like literally like the love of dirtbikes that like make creation the liaison to dopeness. Like you literally have to push each other bro.
Those dudes are not gonna fight they are to smart and paid well, Axel and Raha have impressed the hell out of me
I think there needs to be a rivalry but no beef. Friendly rivalries are where its at.
Can you please just put the full podcast video up? If there’s video being recorded why can’t we see it?
The nice thing about beef in the moto community, is you’re allowed to have beef sith someone behind the gate, but be best friends outside the track.
I love all 3 them dudes! Some baaad mfkkkkaz 🤘🏻
well said TB .... and 2nd i like say 2021 imagination 2.0 was way SICK AS FU@k
Raha>Hodges
COLBY IS THAT GUY!! HESE A DAWG FOSHO 🔥🏴☠️
I feel you. Racing is the same way atleast in the amateur races where every one is thinking there sons gonna go pro and everyone is the fastest and brands hating.
What about buttery films? Was that beef sort of inherited?
Raha is the Brian Deegan, and Axle is Pastrana, all summed up....Easy!
Axel is good but let’s be honest he has Advantages that most don’t but not his fault his family set up what they have but I respect what both do but Colby is way sick when just comparing talent and style
This is the type of divisive bull shit that has no place in the conversation or the industry for that matter. Axel’s talent and ability, and Rahas talent and ability are the points. Period, doesn’t fucking matter if Raha grew up in the slums or if Hodges grew up in the hills. They’re two sick fucking dudes on dirt bikes doing shit that literally no one else on the planet can, with the exception of a healthy Bereman. Saying that Raha has “more” talent or style than Axell is just stupid. Axell’s “advantages” have long been gone/evened out, and his riding and smarts with how he’s invested his contest and contract money into his facilities and riding are continuing to help him elevate.
You can’t bring up family or how he was raised and was given privilege that most don’t have. At the end of the day he still puts in the work.
Where do you buy the talent from? Is there a local shop or online only?
Lol I don’t see anyone doing the shit axle does hate him or love him he’s got bike skills no one else has
Sad some people will never understand what money does for you talent wise in any sport
Funny how they went from learning flips together to hating eachother to riding together for a week
Social media & the media “news” Is a frickn disease!!! A damn cancer! If you make a decision or choose something based of social media you need to GTFOH & stop being a BOT!! Both these dudes are bad ass & are awesome for doing what they do & pushing there sport farther & farther!!! Tyler is a bad ass as well I love watching that kid huck!! cannot wait to watch the whole epsilon!!! Keep up the great work Gypsy tails!!🤩🤩👍🏼🍻
As much as I love Twitch, if he wasn't a judge Axell wouldn't have won. Of course Axell couldn't pick his parents and you can't hate someone because their family is wealthy. But always having a new bike, fresh gear, having a dad that will drive you where ever to go ride and practice all add up. You can see it. His style comes from being comfortable on a bike, from not having to worry about anything but riding and progressing. Colby had to fight, had to ride shitty old bikes and work his ass off just to be able to ride. He's had to work jobs just to afford to go ride. Which is why he goes so buck and why he doesn't hesitate. I think Raha has deserved the win several times against Axell and I think favoritism goes on behind the scenes. But it's like any other extreme sport... When you know the judges play favorites taking home second is a win. And Colby does have a wall full of medals to show off the dedication. We need the rivalry as long as it's light hearted and pushes the sport. Proud of Raha for coming so far and for how well FTW is doing. Danger boy is a good example of both sides. Has everything he wants, has tracks at his house and fresh bikes but goes out and works, practices to be better and isn't afraid to get broke off. He's the future of MX. But Hodges/Raha reminds me of the glory days and I'm here for it. The imagination comp is the best. I just want 6 hours on the track before it's tore down.
For a person who doesn’t pay much attention to freeride. What is this beef about? Just regular sportsmanship rivalry or is it something personal?
It’s really not even close. Blue collar vs rich kid. Raha > Axel by far.
I agree they are both hardworking but axel wouldn’t be half as far without his parents funding i am team raha
Both are great but Axel has more talent.
@@MatthewC137 I would disagree tbh
This is such a pointless argument. So what if his parents were successful? Good for them. Would you like him more if his parents worked at McDonald’s? He’s the one who’s riding the bike and putting in the work. A lot of kids in his position wouldn’t even leave the couch and just do drugs all day
Where do you buy the talent? I’d like go buy some
So most that have followed the sport remember the Pastrana vs Deegan rivalry and how much it grew the sport the Hodges-Raha battle will do the same thing let them
Colby is a fuckin weapon.
When are they putting pegs on these bikes so they can add rails?
Colby doesn't need pegs
It wouldnt really work. Because a dirt bike is too heavy to control without being able to use your front or rear break to keep it balanced. I could see them doing 50 50 style grinds but that would be boring if thats all they could do. If you tried to use just one peg or the other you would loop out every time
It’s been done
Think about the creativity if he had more options🤔
@@tylerparker3024 remember when flipping was a dream that became reality?
Seen alot of talk about him having issues with buttery any talk on that?
Who had issues with buttery?
@@bikerdude6119 Bereman. Apparently
@@bikerdude6119 I know Axell and Buttery used to be really close and they had some beef a few years ago and haven't talked since. I guess TB has some issues with him too. Not sure on that though.
how many times did he say rivalry
It’s kinda like Nate and Twitch at the time too. When they had their rivalry.
At the end of the day
By the way "its Axell"!!!
There is always the 'little rick boy' with the best of everything while others have to make do, in all motorsports being so expensive. Axel will always face that, same as the Deegan kids and what have you. There is always an eliment of how much is down to pure skill and how much is down to financial fortune. 'Would you be this good if it was equal playing field' means nothing and Billy Normal has to just get on and live with it, it is what it is.
fuck the comparison
Axell has an incredible skillset that he worked for, you can't buy skill, and he is good at envisioning tricks, he's highly creative. I find myself amazed at the stuff that he can do on a bike, but it does get repetitive at times, and I find a lot of his stuff overproduced and less organic feeling than what Colby does.
Colby has a raw organic style and is equally as talented in my mind, he has demonstrated less bike skill when it comes to wheelie jump combos and stuff like that, but I think he has a better eye for proper street moto and freeride. He utilizes what the land provides him whereas Axell builds his ideas from scratch.
Two very different styles that compliment each other. I think most prefer the underdog story, I tend to root for Raha myself, plus I enjoy the more down to earth feel of his content, but both are amazing at what they do and I do not feel like bringing up their families financial situation is fair.
As stated by others, you can't choose who your parents are, if anything being born in a rich household can make you less self motivated and less likely to seek success yourself, less raw grit, but he managed to succeed doing something that he is good at, that already makes him better than a good amount of the population (including me) who haven't realized their full potential.
What’s their beef?
Exactly, what is their rivalry ? Not one person has explained why they have beef?? It must e made up to make it dramatic so people who don't watch moto want to watch and yes the older you get the more grown up you become
Apparently raha punched hodges after hodges got in his face at a monster after party a couple years back. Not sure if there was anything else after that
Snag mulfs and parlay the beef for an Young OG
Look what Bryan deegan and Travis did for x games now they jump when one or the other calls it wouldn't be what it is today without that
I like Colby, just do!
colbys the goat
They can’t touch the skill of uncle Ron
Style cats live to freeride 👌
X games showed they could fix it. At axels property, invited Raha. Showed hope
Finally a rider admits there is beef… everytime someone said no theres no beef they were conveniently wearing a monster hat 🤷♂️
Ha..
They both love bikes and pot. Just cause they got in an argument doesn't mean anything. Who hasn't thrown down with friends. :)
Hey axel its a lot harder to get a redbull hat then monster
And it's harder to get a Monster lid than a Rockstar one🤷🏽♂️. So what?
Surprised rockstar actually let Colby come out to a redbull event!
remember when axell and buttery were homies lol
The Mulisha can't fully exist without a beef or rivalry. They're the bad guys and Axel Hodges is the modern day Travis Pastrana.
Raha
Colby kept it old school like metal mulisha and crusty days, axell is more a tech style rider more new school
Wtf is their beef in the first place?
FTW BITCHES!!!
Seems Raha might have came from a lesser funded family, Rawha!
Axle blocked me on IG
We have seen what happens when axel talks shit in person to raha😂😂
Got a link?
RAHA .
Colby would wash Axell lmaoo
All the talk about who's better than who is bullshit! So Axell had it easier than Colby, big deal🤷🏽♂️. Axell brings eyes to moto, significantly more than Colby (google trends), so he's doing good work for everyone involved, I'd bet some (newer) Raha fans came through Axell.
Both of 'em fkn threw down a run!
Anyone arguing about who's was better is doing the *heavily credentialled* judges dirty.
The Judges all had a personal connection with Axell 140 foot back flips don’t lie
@@jonruger one trick makes a 5minute run👌🏽.
@@glentight Colby went Harder everyone agrees go look at Imaginations comment sections every video full of people who think Raha won an a handful of Axell fans but it’s a clear 10 people for Raha for every 1 for Hodges
Whatever my man... fanboys gonna fanboy... Just leave it alone mate, crying about the result never changes it. You see bias (Judging) where there simply is none.
@@glentight well it’s judging so it’s someone’s personal opinion and they use bias to get the decision and if all the judges have known one kid for years it doesn’t look great but your right the overwhelming majority of the fans must be wrong. And the Axell “fanboys” like you are right.
So beef because Raha is jealous? Got it. Regardless of facility or advantages etc. Axell throws it down. So does Raha. Go fucking send it and stop hating.
Did u guys seriously compare Tyler to Travis rice? Lol
What do you not agree with there?
Who’s playing games of b.I.k.e. Or add on with dirt bikes like they do bmx? Somebody needs to jump in the content
First
How does a 30 year old man call him self a kid 🤔riding with adults that call them selves children our society is focked
millenials didnt get the chance to grow up properly bc of the boomers. alot of us are still kids!
Colby Raha is who Axle wishes he was. Period. Time will show it, too.
Where does Axell’s supposed family money come from? His dad sure doesn’t seem like he works -but who knows, maybe he owns a construction company? 🤷🏻♂️
Dirt bike riding became an inherently rich kid sport post 2000. These days, tens of thousands of dudes have parents who are willing to spoil them with the resources to become pro. But it’s still insanely difficult to get anywhere near the level of Axell/Raha/etc… And let’s not forget how important personality and style are. These aren’t the TP199 double backflip days. Someone could quad flip a dirt bike and it’d be “instagram impressive” for 48-72 hours. Dudes like Buttery or Axell bring something to the sport that is beyond the gnar/tech tricks.
He made his money and hasnt worked for years. He also invented FenderBench 😂
Axel needs Colby Without Colby axel would be forgotten
I love Tyler but I cringe every time he refers to himself and other grown ass men as kids.
