Re:

SPD's not for me either Kyle.
When you say that though Kyle, how old are you?
I'm 36 and got first proper bike in 1993.
So have had clips all that time.

I'm 31 i got my first proper bike in 94 and did start with toe clips. But then got given some spd shoes and pedals by a mate who was older than me (i used to go xc racing with him).
Got into trials around 99 then have liked flats ever since!

Sounds good and you were very young.
Have tried flats, my Son has got a Kona Stinky.
Did a few jumps, was ok but tried to go down these steps and foot slipped off, shin was bleeding

Ah shin digs i remember them well
Alot depends on your footwear as well with flats some trainers just dont grip. Generally flat soled court type trainers are good like etnies or something.
For me anythin keeping my feet stuck to the pedals = face into ground if you go over the bars. (Did i mention i like doing stoppie's)

Re:

I got some shoes from Aldi..shhh.
Have the option for SPD's underneath,
Can just imagine doing a stoppie and having your feet stuck on the pedals.
Good job this is your thread, we can't get moaned for spamming..
