Oh Sh1t, I almost fell off my stool. hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaa!!!
We used to call them arrogant kids ninja mounted surf geeks. [they hung out at the beach with shorts and flip flops talking about their 160 mph 600 Ninja's]They did have $400.00 or $500.00 dollar helmets though, hanging from there helmet hooks! HA! I'd ask them if those $500.00 shock protectors worked very well. Gimme a break.

Bird,
In Florida SQUIDs can often be spotted riding with their helmets still hanging on the hook. The helmets are usually top end with rider colors (Duhammel, custom, etc.) Hence, the flashy helmets are referred to as "SQUID frame sliders" (helmets are cheaper than fairings afterall)

Squid Frame Sliders! Thats funny Cave Dweller. Hey, do you think any Giant Squids exist? And I thought "Shock protecters" was a good one. I think a package of squid stickers would be fun at the beach.

A "Squid" is a person who rides in shorts or sandals or no helmet. It is a derogatory term used to describe their poser status, lack of skills, poor judgement, and impaired intellect. A "Flailer" is someone who trys to ride beyond their abilitys and crashes or nearly crashes from taking too many risks. "Wimp Strips" are the part of your tires tread that is not used yet on the outer shoulders. I'm kind of new to this also.

SQUID = "Stupid Quick Unpredictable and Inevitably Dead"
for example, an 18 year old kid who rides a Busa, kicks cars as he rides by, crosses the double yellow line to pass on twisty roads, thinks the laws don't apply to him because he believes he is way above average skill and performance level, runs from the cops (on sidewalks if necessary), argues that he can tag and then outrun a crazy driver that carries, and does dumb circus stunts on his $11,000 bike (like riding backwards) would be a SQUID.
