Finally got my finger out and finished this video. As the title says it's part 1 of our Canadian trip from July last year. Victoria has a massive scene and everyones really sound so a big shout to the riders we met. Second part is coming along and looking good so far ( more riding ). As always guys love to hear what you think. Comments welcome Linky Thanks James

Bloody hell Jonny, no flies on you. Great job getting this edited and up in such a short space of time. Looked like everyone had a great day and some stupid lines being thrown down. Great job

Rowan Top video, not sure I liked it as much as dreamsofglass but I imagine that that one took a lot longer to make. Really like the start, brilliante way of show you abilities at opposite. I'm really looking forward to more from you, not only of your riding but the other videos you are working on for the team. On a not so happy note, after deciding that in my protec I looked a bit to much like the Bristol massive and wanted something a little more unique, I think you can see where this is going, oh well never mind. Great vid and inspirational riding. Well done!!!

Thanks, I was wondering if anyone would ask about how they were stood up. When I was taking the photographs I got someone to hold the bike and then at a count get them to let go and take the photo. I was going to use bike stands but it looks better this way I think.

Danny No your Ed Tongue frame is still waiting in the wings. Its currently minus paint as its waiting for a shinny new spray job, Ben was in the process of sorting it out when we got these bad boys.

Thanks guys, were really pleased with them. Cheers to everyone who posted and gave there thoughts. Should be filming for some videos on them soon and we'll try not to scratch them too much Dave ( Ben might ) Yeah the chain is a full half link chain, but it's a mtb one that if could run on a cassette if needed. The rims for Bens are the rear is a Sun Rhyno Lite with a light grind, and the front is a old black rim from the bike shop I work at, not sure what make it was but I think its the same make as the ones on my bike which are some silver old school Upgrade rims 36 hole. The Deity bars are spot on too, great rise and a nice sweep ( good and strong.... fingers crossed ). Cheers guys James

Seeing as how Johns just posted his new Inspired up, I felt a little left out so hear are mine and Ben's new rides. More photo's over at 26twenty.com if anyone wants to see more. Also check out Ben's custom paint job on his bars, forks and chain device. Ben's is the Black and mines the White, they ride really amazing, and can really be fined tuned to how you want it to ride depending on the bar, stem, stackers combination. Big thanks to Dave at Inspired/Trialtech also thanks to Adam at Tarty's. God this sound just like John's topic.

Classic stealth styling, looks very similar to your old Ashton but with better geo.

Looking good. V quick build, now give some stick.

Rowan Very tidy, like that alot. How you finding the ultimate on the coated rim. I almost went for some of those rims but didn't think they would work well with a V. Also congrat's on the interview in Wideopen. Some nice photographs and a great little insight. James

A still of Waynes drop from some of the footage that I got, was a really good day and it looked like Ben enjoyed his day ringside. Plenty of footage clocked of almost everyone and hopefully should be a good video. Big shout out to all that organized the event, well done to Wayne, Savage and Cesar for being perfect ambassadors for the sport. Thanks James

One of the best shot/edited videos I've seen in a long time, bloody brilliant!!! Makes me want to fish out my bullet cam. Nice one

Bit of a long shot, but does anyone know if spectators will be able to take dogs into the auction mart?

Jonny, as always nice vid, some nice zoom work and steady movement. John keep the lines coming , looking forward to seeing more. James

Thanks for the comments guys , thought I might get a few more opinions on it though as it is trials after all but never mind

Something a little different from us this time around. The first of the team videos - this featuring Nick Bull on his Gas Gas, I filmed this towards the end of summer 2007. As always love to hear what people think either on here or via the Vimeo link on the video's page 26twenty Thanks James

My faith is restored in trials videos. Such a fresh take on a video and really sums up what trials is to most people. Well put together video and well shot. James

Again thanks for the extra comments. Danny - the frame isn't your old one ( still in the wings ready to be used. Going to get a very bright paint job soon though ) yours is a back up, he thought the current frame would break ages ago, but for some reason it's still going strong. The T-shirt idea has been mentioned before by a couple of different people. I'm looking in to getting some done at the moment for the team. Just out of curiosity would any one be interested in them if I did get some made??? Cheers guys.

Thanks Guys & Gal. Appreciate all your comments, glad that everyone seems to be liking the site and the new video, more to come. Cheers James

The man's a convert to the vimeo way. Nice chilled video, not so nice little chav arses. Nice work.

Thanks guys, never even thought about mentioning that we were off to Sutton, it was just one random Sunday afternoon and we thought we'd get out somewhere. Used to go up there loads as a kids, trip down memory lane. LOL. Rowan, after speaking to Jonny and getting some advice from him and the chaps at creative video ( if any one needs any decent gear go see these guys, they know what they are talking about ), I decided on the Sony HVR A1E and moved from Adobe Premiere and over to Final Cut. Pat, yeah I remember the demo that you and the Mad chaps were doing. If we're ever out your way I'll give you a shout or vice versa Jonny, thanks for the post and for the advice, you were so right about the HVR A1E, I love it, such a good camera for the size. And after that first real test I also came to the conclusion that the on-board is way better than the external. Thanks for the props on the titles, was my first attempt with After Effects. And as for the flash effect on the site, its a nice little Java script. If anyone's interested you can download it HERE, pretty simple to set up, worth a go!. Thanks guys. James

LOL, all that talk and I forgot to put up a link to the site. Cheers for that.

New site, new video. Again I wasn't sure where this topic should go. The new video is titled Daytrip, which you'll find in the media section and was shot in one afternoon late last summer and was the first time I'd used my new camera. We've got a lot of stuff to come ( fingers crossed ) so I hope everyone likes it. As always we'd love to hear what you all think of the video and the site, all suggestions welcome. 26twenty Cheers James

Really good vid guys, good to see a vid that isn't about sidehops and gaps. And nice to see the return of Potts!!! Enjoyed it a lot keep up the good work Ben

Jonny Nice little ident J, nice to see experimentation in videos and I think your maybe the first trials videographer using a crane ( I might be wrong I apologize if I am ). Colour wise I liked it, what excatly have you done to the footage, looks like something with the saturation. Keep up the good work, if only more people made an effort to be creative in videos. Also congrat's on the ex tube spot, how did you get involved in that. James
