isitafox Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 As I said on the heatsink post on FB the vid is pure dirt, it's absolutely disgusting. It shouldn't be possible to beast that much power into a bike! And the gap to frenchie jobby was quality! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalopS Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 (edited) Still it was very interesting side and also it would make vid longer and add some more variety too.Spring,Angel and this one is like all gaps +1sidehop each... How would another side hop that is smaller than one already in the vid add more variety? what about the move at 46 seconds? thats techy and big. forgot to add that I thought the edit was cool. Just a bit too much slow mo for me! Id like to see the water gap going over the rail p.s. anyone else think the high jump was at least 10 inches over what anyone else got at Tartyday???

aener Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 That was obviously very impressive, but do you think you could chill out on the slowmo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwarf Shortage Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 That was obviously very impressive, but do you think you could chill out on the slowmo? This, it was like watching the moon landing. f**king awesome, probably fake, and an unhealthy dose of slo-mo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayshell Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 (edited) Hmmm I would say damon spring 2010 is still my favourite video. I liked the song/riding went so perfectly for me but that is just my opinion. I think your videos are really inspiring, the riding is just inhuman and the editing was really good. I think its good he puts in non riding clips. Its very interesting to see what kind of person is behind the rider. I say this to everyone but I think you should film without a fish eye so its easier to tell how big you are actually going. Everything looks big on a fish eye but on a regular lens lengths only look massive if they are massive, and your riding is massive.

JDā¢ Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Not as good as Chill, still weirdly mesmerising to watch even though it's nothing like the riding I enjoy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is filmed withouz a fisheye, only the first 2 clips on the rail a fisheye was used. The rest just a standard 0.5 wideangle raynox was fitted after peoples input from the last videos New vid should take as lomg now my knee isnt QWITE asbad..and ile try incorporate abit more tech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Your riding style is really starting to improve in my opinion. Much more explosive and more effortless than before. Something I didn't like in your previous vids was that your big gaps really did look like you're about to shit yourself. Now you seem to just fly off the edge. And that brakeless frenchie - class. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 p.s. anyone else think the high jump was at least 10 inches over what anyone else got at Tartyday??? We were all pretty drunk and it was pitch black - I'd expect him to get higher Whoever it was who did that sort of superman flail technique did pretty well though... Video was cool though, nice and smooth but still the usual massive stuff going down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That pallet gap was also fish eyed. Your point is made though, most the clips weren't it just seemed like a lot were because this vid was quite a bit shorter than normal. Everything you do just looks fish eyed too because you do everything half a meter bigger than a normal rider would so I get confused.

Jo Prattley Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 i just want to see every clip you didnt like mate ... even the stuff you think is small is ten times bigger than us mere mortals can achieve by the sounds of it !! im sure im not the only one that is clamming for another video in the very near future !! congrats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OAP Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 Powerful riding. But on the whole the vid is not my cup o tea, a bit repetitive. The whole top off / punch bag stuff is a bit 'small town legend'. More varied riding spots (ie natty), interesting lines and less ego would make a superb vid.
