  1. Afternoon :)

    I tried something a little different this time.

    A much more focused BMX style towards it, partly because I was ill for a while so wanted to film more than ride!

    Would appreciate feedback on this as I'm still learning the art of making videos :P There is trials in this (my riding) but not loads and loads, more towards the end too.

    Thanks!

    I'm hoping fairly often but it's tricky not to just rush out a load of material and then not be able to think of content. I've a few ideas, I'll maybe put one out every month or every other week depending on how it goes.

    Monthly (Y)

    Cool riding dude but if I've got one tip for you I'd REALLY advise you to learn to spin the other way. It will be hard but it will link up your riding SO much better. You already 360 pivot the other way so things are getting mixed up and it'll only get worse as you get better. You're also putting in a pedal kick in spins and rolling gaps where just a plain bunnyhop will look a lot nicer.

     

    This is coming from experience, if you want to future proof your riding NOW is the time to start....I learned the hard way.

    Funny you said that as I was thinking the exact same things haha! I'm getting there, spins are the hardest ones for now though! rolling gaps are also "pedal-less" a lot more now :P I had another clip where the gap from the jump box to the bank had no bitch crank involved but it wouldnt render in the video for some reason, so chose the only other one I had. 

     

    You are right though, I'll get it all smoothed out in time :)(Y)

    Just after the water they are really good but it seems to fade to just OK after a while? @Adam@TartyBikes @Mark W

    keep going a couple more times, just ride and pulse the brakes. It SHOULD just eventually go away out of nowhere. Any shit in your pistons? brakes topped up properly/bled properly? bpc adjusted etc? Shouldn't really have to adjust anything if bled correctly. 

     

    If your using sram guides I reckon it COULD be the problem... Only because everybody I know who uses them/has used them has had problems with them, apparently the fluid is bizarre too and literally gets hot or something :S I've not used them myself but could be something along those lines. who knows. 

  6. A new learn tonight! Very pleased with it considering I don't do much "front wheel stuff" so much that I have no idea what it's even called haha, a Canadian I think?

    Element of Ali C in this for sure haha :P 

     

  7. Hey all :) 

    My local skatepark recently got re built into a £500.000 piece of perfection, I decided to take the camera there and use up the last of my battery left! Pleased with many of these lines, still many more to find! Such an awesome new skatepark about 300 metres from my house haha. 

     

    Hope you enjoy it! :) 

     

  8. Yeah my friend found out the hard way with the clamp/arrow thing haha, that shouldn't be an issue :) I'll be running 203mm rotors and since the callipers are 4 pot, power wont be a worry anyway. I've used them before (Ali's actually) and they seem very nice, it's simply the lever snapping fear. Other than that they seem, and feel great.

  9. As the title sais, I'm thinking about getting a pair (since they are uber cheap through work yay!) but after snapping a couple of the newer 2014 HS33 levers I'm not too sure on the MT7 or any MT levers.... Anybody know if anyone has had problems with them so far? with regards to snapping or cracking etc? Saints and hopes are obviously strong enough, but the MT7 just looks a bit too focused on saving weight not so much strength. Magura problems in general are a problem so the last thing I want is that thought in the back of my mind!! 

    cheers!
