Product Description
From Amazon.com
Dave Mirra and Ryan Nyquist have been lords of the BMX scene even before they were old enough to drive a car. Now that they're highly decorated and seasoned extreme athletes (Mirra alone earned 19 medals at the X Games between 1995 and 2000), admirers could be forgiven for wanting to know more about their lives both at work and play. A loose, airy documentary that includes everything from old home videos to private banter to practice sessions on the bikes, Miracle Boy and Nyquist has picked up a couple of film festival awards for its very human portrait of Mirra and Nyquist. Not that there's a shortage of action. There are loads of tricks to gape at and dissect for technique, and for additional fun there's an outtake section featuring the guys in a few of their more mundane moments on the golf course and in a bike shop. --Tom Keogh
From the Back Cover
Made by award winning filmmaker Steve Olpin, Miracle Boy and Nyquist is a rare behind-the-scenes look at two of the biggest superstars of the extreme generation. Watch them do what they do best: ride, jump, flip, shill, fly, grind, spin, and...win.

If you're a fan of BMX, you've heard of Mirra and Nyquist. And this video covers things you never knew about your favorite riders. It tracks them through competitions and moves.

Great Documentary,
By "fenixfire182" (Kent, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Miracle Boy & Nyquist: BMX (VHS Tape)
I don't want to divulge any of the specifics on the video. I thought that it was a great showing of what Dave Mirra and Ryan Nyquist go through in their competitions. Also where they lived and how they got interested in BMX Biking. Not only is a bunch of information, but it is really funny.
