Sweet video! Riding was nuts, and really liked some of the more 'Manifesto' lines in there (e.g. the block to U-pipe thing to spool to tyre line). Thought the edit was cool too. It felt a lot different to your other vids from Barrow, and there were just some really nice ideas in there.

I dont know why but the sponsor logos coming out from behind things made me laugh.

Agreed on the brake rub comment.

How you can gap to front and land with your back wheel about a foot lower and make it up to back ill never know.

So jealous you have Barrow to ride whenever you want.

Crashes were funny!

Pretty much my thinking too. I was getting a little bit bored (no offense) of all your Barrow vids, but this one's really freshened things up - there were some really interesting lines in there (I liked the ones with the pallet on its end, for example) and the riding was really clean and solid.

So another video of Barrow Farm by Joe Maher. Well this one was good. I find it hard to see how well someone is riding or improving and progressing when they release a video every other month. It was nice to see a lot of thought went into this video, not just the riding but also the editing too.

Yep another Video at Barrow farm. It is shame, and im very sorry for that lol. BUT..when mark webb( for example ) brings out a video...people dont say..oh just another video at the skatepark..do they? A ramp is a ramp, a tyre is a tyre. Its all the same. Its been put there to be ridden :P

Street video, yes, it will happen.. Infact i brought out 2 street videos out not to long ago.

But why ride street when you have one of the best venues in the UK on your doorstep.

People ask me if i bored of barrow farm, and i can genuinely answer, 'No!' Why would i? Everytime i go i find something new, a new line, a new something.

Why would i want to ride street?? Example :

''Ooo, found a wall, lets sidehop it, done, backwheel done. Ok bored of this spot

Ride half a mile up the ride

Ooo another wall with a rail, do the gap, done!

Ride half a mile up the ride''

And so on and so on. Its all the same!! Yes so is barrow farm in that sense , but atleast i dont ride about wasting time looking for generically shit spots to ride!!

Im sorry that my barrow vids dont cut the mustard. If anything, the videos are actually just there to raise awareness about Barrow Farm!! Every weekend, i sit and ask myself, why is nobody coming to this awesome venue?? And i still havnt figured it out. People can claim its a long way away. Meh! Joe Prattley and Jack Harmer have been down like 3 times in the past few few weeks and they live in Yorkshire or somewhere daft!

:(

Aw Joe don't worry, I'll start coming up more once I have my own car! I agree on what you say about street riding, I think it's more the fact people want to see you ride new spots. It may feel like every time at barrow you find different lines, but it's hard to put that onto video.
