We all know who Chad Degroot is but did you know that he can hang nothing on a fixed gear? I didn't either until I saw this post over at Subrosa. Seems Chad was just messing around with a buddy's Malum and he started busting these out. Damn impressive and a damn inspirational thing to see on a Monday morning!
Thanks to Adam22 for the heads up!

And he's not cheating by turning the bars/fork backwards. Chad is known for feathering the brake, yet this looks clean/brakeless.

It's also called a hang ten bro. Google it. Fuzzy, that's llindsay from aloha fixed. He flips his bars around to make it easier. Chads not doing that here...

hang ten = both feet on pegs (all 10 toes)
hang five = one foot on peg (5 toes)
hang nothing = no feet on (as pictured)
