  1. that is subjective though, I like it better than stupid camera angles and fish eye lenses like 99% of professional productions because I like seeing things that are actually real and even better... creativity in editing something totally lacking in pro vids. It feels like I am watching this in real life and I like that feeling. Anyways objectively you CAN argue if the editing is good or not and objectively the editing is great... Its a concrete fact the music goes perfectly with the footage which is what makes great editing. If you don't like the style or song that is your opinion.
  2. the stadium part is computer generated graphics and cut scenes from some show. Its pretty cool. I thought the riding was really good. You can abukaba backwards like 200 feet I its pretty crazy.

    3 Tricks

    I started to film and then a big storm cloud hovered over me so I filmed on my driveway and then it rained in 2 seconds. I will try to make a real fake video later. Haven't posted anything in years so its soemthing... This was the worst attempt of filming anythign possible http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iRXyhvk0Pg
  4. I thought it was good personally, I liked the editing and the song went really well with it. I don't see how the editing was awful in any way it was timed perfectly to the music. As for the riding I thought it was good too. I was thinking it would be really bad because I thought he was just going to side hop the curb at first but the riding was pretty good. What bike are you looking into now? ps: never do what anyone on here says hahaha if you made the full video I GUARANTEE you they would have said next time just make a preview so I don't have to watch the whole thing.
  5. Ive said it before and I'll say it again. Tra is the best trials rider on the planet. I bet he did every line in that video in like 2 tries or less.
  6. Great riding didn't know what to expect! You all have your own unique style. Its really cool watching 3 different styles in one edit. I really loved the tiretap 360 to huge gap on the box and backwards manuel to manuel to abukaba to fufanu. Really nice flow and super techy. 24s are so much fun to watch you guys can just do everything on them.
  7. Holy crap that was sick! Really nice edit, music went sooo perfectly with the riding. Loved the side hop to rear on the rail to rail gap on the slanted rail, and the huge rail drop at the end was so nuts!

    This Guy

    I don't think he was trying to act sponsored. (maybe he was) but I thought he was just trying to promote tartybikes/inspired. Lots of the time I will put a company thing in my video if I like a company. (so basically never actually XD)but what I am saying is i don't want to judge without knowing Riding was really good I thought. I think this guy will be really pro because he isn't afraid to hurt him self. he does ride a lot like the big Mac. Surprised he doesn't wear a helmet also.

    I didn't notice but now that you point that out I looked again and it had seat. Looks like it is steel by the way its welded/tubing. I was going to say my frame is good cause it has the 75 headtube and shorter geo but it looks like you already got it. You should look into the viz urban fork though. Bent forks always snap.

    I say this whenever I see streety mod riding.. you need my frame makes everything 100 times easier, then you would only need 1 bike! Actually 2 cause u can't run pegs on it. I love doing manuels my self and I find it works really great for them... soo much better than regular 20" frames.. anyways... Great video and great riding. Favorite line was fufanu to backwards hop to tailtap 540. Never seen anyone do that before ever. Your brakeless nose manuels are tight too.
  11. nice video man your brakeless trials is nuts, if you are interested in more experimental riding you should consider looking into my antitron frame. It is by FAR the best bmxy trials frame. Its very very strong and built for flowy 20" trials (kind of like a 20" fourplay frame)I have been riding it for years. Spins a million times better and hops super easy.
  12. hey cmon man get back to me :D I am really interested

  13. Hey just wondering how did you get green hosing? Did you build it or buy it somewhere? Like its not just black hosing spraypainted green right?

  14. Oh yes! Awesome please take a photo also do you have paypal?

  15. You have a really streety style of riding but do it on nature. It looks really awesome its good to see style on nature. Rare you see a rider without a helmet but I don't wear one either.
  16. great video! The editing was brilliant! The gaps to front were really crazy. Looks like really solid controlled riding.
  17. hey sorry I was asking you for some coloured magura hosing in the past but I forgot what happened. Do you sell all colours and did you have any photos? I am really interested. In particular I am looking for greens or bright red.

  18. Nice video! The riding was really clean and you did a good job editing Your side hops are really good, and your nose pick 360s are really well rotated. You need to make the video 2 clips longer it ended right at the chorus
  19. that is interesting, but if a fork is properly heat treated then shouldn't the weld not be a factor? Because the mounts are just added over on top of the fork they aren't holding the fork together. Modulation is the main issue but you really only need that for nose manuels but you can work your way around that too. Just put 1 grippy soft compound pad on and one magura black pad on this way it locks really well if you push hard, but doesn't jerk when you push lightly. Do you use echo sl levers? Its the only hs-33 lever I can tolerate. The tire thing is annoying, but I usually pop the rear tire and the noise is annoying but tolerable. After switching back to hs-33s they feel a lot better to me. Everything just feels a lot more solid and reliable and I love being able to coast without the rubbing. It is possible to set discs up without rubbing but I like my lever to engage quickly when I push it.
  20. I don't think anyone knows for sure its all theoretical, but even though hs-33 pushes outwards its only with a couple grams of force because its just your finger pressure + leverage and this side to side force isn't enough to damage a fork I think. The big impact is forward and backwards because its stopping probably 100 kg of force + speed. With the disc its absorbed all at the hub so the fork suffers the maximum amount of leverage. With a rim brake the brake area takes most the stress I think because the rim directly contacts the tire and the first spot that takes the impact is the tire and most the energy is absorbed through trying to push or pull the clamps into the fork and only a small percent is used to prevent the hub from wanting to jump through the dropout.
  21. I am considering switching from a front disc back to a front hs-33. I was thinking and what advantages do discs have? I really only use my front brake for locking so a hs-33 is much lighter, and I can run a non disc hub to save even more weight, its more reliable and requires less adjustment and reduces stress on the fork as lots of the impact is absorbed higher up where there is less leverage against the fork. Discs also rub basically no matter what unless you leave your lever really loose its basically impossible to have a straight disc rotor. Also discs are annoying cause if I mess up something I hit the disc and bend it. The only con I can think of is if you bend your front rim it rubs and if you do backwards nose manuels they suck and I don't do those. Why does everyone run front discs? Also I guess noise, its nice to have 1 brake that stops and doesn't squeal. I can understand danny mac cause he does so many g-turns but why not save weight and improve performance and use a rim brake?
  22. I use an avid SD, ideally I want a echo sl lever but for a mechanical disc brake. Does anyone make something like this?
  23. nooo... this is a downer and about giving up and stuff.
  24. seriously - yes headbanging - no hahaha I wanted to make it more serious plot/characters - yes but I am not going to have dialogue. The story is in the lyrics, and in text. A narrator or dialogue would be a really bad idea and ruin the music.
