Or an even better question is:
Why hasn't the freestyler yet found the most efficient way to produce each trick the same way Vasek does?

I would say from the 7.5 months I lived in Iowa city that Iowans have by far the best clear sounding english.

I often say G'day when talking to people on the internet or even G'day Mate - which as a greeting is a very Australian thing I think.

I heard somewhere that Widwesterners have the least accent of anyone, but its sounds like an accent to everyone else cause it sounds different.

I was going to say that I didn't notice a Manitoban accent from Erik..but then I realised exactly what Chris said:

"then again, i didn't hear him talk too often."

Oh snap! It's true!

So soft-spoken, but busts so huge.

Cumulative props to Erik!

Does everyone on this board have your local accent?
