  1. Look for a Mini DV camera. You should be able to get one for 60 quid (hopefully) Have a look at some used Sony HC18 handycams, they're great for their price. Can't help you with prices though, I have no idea how much they cost in the UK.
  2. I think it's adrenaline. Ever crashed badly and felt nothing? That's it. Also, you need to know how to crash. I've seen my mates crash riding freeride, some would end up braking bones, whereas another friend of mine (almost a pro) walks out of major crashes with mild injuries. Repeating things might be due to the "now or never" saying. If you don't do something strait away after crashing, you'll be scared of it for days to come.
  3. Depeche mode - enjoy the erection (silence) Cky - erection Freestyle (brans) etc.
  4. Oh dear, no more to argue about. Have a go at "Inur" GU should be pronounced "Gół". It sounds a bit like Goohoo with a mild "h".
  5. Thats a Marc Drinko frame. It uses Pisso tubing.
  6. Right click on it and select the 4th option from the top in the menu (which says "save target as"). That's where it is on my computer...
  7. I'd advise getting the V!Z stem and Monty Riser bars and tilting them backwards. edit: didn't read the post above ZOO bars IMHO are too wide to give you the proper streety feel. Monty's are 680mm and that's great for trials, and will be much better for streetish riding than the ZOO.
  8. It makes taphops easier but for obvious reasons I don't do them. Couldn't be bothered to empty the tank.

    Bit Of Pain

    Shit... erm.. get well soon, I'm off to the toilet...
  10. There's mine. It's very practical.
  11. It might be so, all we did was to check how they could have printed "Candles not imperf." on a box of non dripping candles. The phrase they translated could indeed be "non dripped candles" but then how can we know - it was translated from Chinese. The only certain thing is that imperf. was what they thought to be the translation.
  12. Personal preference and observations: High bars - easier taps, bunnyhops, larger gaps Low bars - all the rest. If you tilt the bars towards you, the bike will be more bunnyhoppable, will feel shorter, but most of the moves will be more difficult because of smaller leverage. Just experiment with bar height and angle, you're bound to find the setup that suits you most.
  13. Let us know when you come up with a solution. I've got the same problem, it's so bad I ride in the evening/at night in the summer. I got wet patches today when I got too excited so it's not only physical effort.
  14. Guess what "Candles Not Imperf" are? Non dripping candles. "Non dripping" or something similar to that is an imperfect verb, in a dictionary written down as imperf. Yes, somebody's been using the dictionary wrong and thought "Non dripping" in Chinese is Imperf in English. Got a framed box of them hanging in dad's room.
  15. Buy some vitamin BT pills and take 1g of them 30 minutes before you practice (it's commonly known as L-Karnityne or something like that, and is added to some soft drinks). These are among other things very good for burning off fat. I've been using them when doing Air Alert and it increased my body efficiency by about 30%. Even when you have no fat left, it will increase your performance. As far as workout goes, the only thing I did was to jump with a bar (70-120kg) and practice my chest. My riding did benefit from this in the long run and I can do things more easily now. Never really did this seriously though, more of a winter activity to waste some energy when I couldn't ride.
  16. gold and green remove the stickers!
  17. that was great Haven't seen anything like that in ages. So different
  18. First the image [attachmentid=5388] Then the thing you're supposed to stare at. This "burns" a negative image in your eyes... [attachmentid=5386] Which looks like this: [attachmentid=5387] And when we combine the two together: [attachmentid=5385]
  19. just to point out, there's a sticky for these kinds of questions. edit: beat me to it
  20. Um, just looking at this from a different point of view. A titanium frame will be more expensive than an aluminium frame. It won't be much lighter, but might be more springy if designed in such a way and will also be more durable. The geometry might be a little controversial, so is the size of the frame. This means that fewer riders will buy it than if was much smaller. Maybe this is not the case, but if you release a new product, you want people to buy it and so increase your revenue. Obviously this will depend on the price, but if it's similar to Triton, I can see people buying a Triton instead. Sorry, had to write that, correct me if I'm wrong (and I probably am:) )
  21. A few stills from a tired-with-studying ride outside my house. [attachmentid=5377] [attachmentid=5378][attachmentid=5379]
  22. what do you want my sexy photo for? won't be green then.
  23. A bit like Chris Walker, but with a crown and without the bit about crisps. Guess what colour it will be in a weeks time and win my sexy photo.
