old'scoolfool Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 not a fan of bmx but trials demo's tend to be bland and mixing it up like this just works, very entertaining Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewEH1 Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 URBAN!!!!! Wasn't a major fan of the edit though, some nice riding by that BMXer especially that last move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i like cunning stunts Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 No disrespect to iciar but that sort of "demo" needed a rider like Danny or Ali to sort of fit in, a uci style like iciar's didn't work in that environment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkshire Dale Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 yea was expecting that to be crap but actually enjoyed it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rupintart Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I think it works well. I agree that ideally they need a street rider in there, but eh, it still works. The crowds wouldn't know the difference, they would just see a guy on a bmx and then a guy on a mtb hopping on the back wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlperkins Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Thought that was shit :/ haha. Just a load of choreographed stuff, shoddily put together. Great skills all round and theyve tried being creative but dont seem to have pulled it off IMO. I liked the mid-air decade though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omgnoseat Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I don't know what people are complaining about, there are not alot of demo teams that have such a nice variety. Trial does seem a bit out of place, the rider seems rushed to keep up the pace. I think you should take advantage of the slow pacing in trials and use it as a moment of rest for the audience. This might sound degrading to the rider, but I think the audience would enjoy it if they can watch something more relaxed for a moment. You could even using a slower trialssection to prepare for a nex set and move some stuff around or position the other team members. This video doesn't seem like a proper show yet, but I think you were just showing off the different skills you have. I'm sure a nice setup with cool transitions into the sports would come naturally. Good job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
