monkeyseemonkeydo Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 (edited) Some pics I got back from Chris Killops, the guy who was there with the full on pro photographer gear! Please do not reproduce these without consulting with myself or Chris. Me with wheelswap to manual over a strange sundial kinda thing after getting up the awkward side. Quite a cool arty shot, me in the background doing god knows what. John Shrewsbury with a sweet bunnyhop gap to manual. Br3n with a monster gap, not quite pulled...next time :blink: . Me about to drop off the aforementioned wierd sundial thing. Me about to drop off that cage thing. Matt 'Hermance' with a crazy line-momentum gap from the block, to up to front wheel on the platform (that you can't see). Me getting up the easy side of the wierd sundial. Andy P with a nice rolling gap, smooth as ever. All pics hosted by Pinkbike Dave Edited April 26, 2005 by monkeyseemonkeydo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JIX Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 Really good photo's. On another note how did you get up that sloped thing, on the harder side? Looks like a really nice line. Did you sort of front touch it and commit to front wheel to roll up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted April 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 On another note how did you get up that sloped thing, on the harder side? ← It was more of a pedal bunnyhop, hooking the front wheel before swapping to rear. Didn't have enough confidence with front touches on that ride so used my mod technique! Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonno Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 Those are some MINT pics! they look really good in black and white too, good job! (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted April 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 Those are some MINT pics! they look really good in black and white too, good job! (Y) ← Cheers, but like I said at the top, they were all taken by Chris Killops who is a keen amateur photographer that I met a couple of years back while riding London. I let him know when a rides happening and he comes and shoots us then sends me the pics to do with what I like! He definately has a good eye for a shot though.

JIX Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 I see, its looked abit big to just pedal at it. Nice move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_P Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 Yeah really smart pics there! Some good camera skills there! Loving the macro one of the wheel! Maybe the one where Matt was gaping and we couldn't actually see the object, a different angle could of been used but all good! Well dont that man!

b'mouth trials Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 Beautiful set of pics you have there dave! The photographer nearly got killed on that shot of john doing the gap to manuel, had to move out of the way pretty sharpish :) . Was a good ride, some radiculous (sp) stuff going down as usual. Nice, Aaron. :- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhythm_101 Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 lovely pics, liking the jon shrewsbery one, :- :) P.s youve got some muskly arms there (without sounding gay!!!) they remind me of the teenage mutant ninja turtles :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe b Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 f**king mint photo's i didn't realise the hardness of the first move until i saw the shape of the 'sundial' thing in the other pic. :) HUAGE! Good going guys... Cheers, Joe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punkrider Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 Hey those pictures are really good, black and white looks so much more proffesional than colour :lol: Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEVE-0 Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 Cheers action-man, lol. There are some great pics. I wondered who that guy was with all the photo gear, shame he didnt take a pic of me :) . Good to see myself in the backround though. That was a great ride that day. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebor Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 Those are some damn nice pictures, the one of Matt really looks as if he's moving (the picture itself) :lol: I think the best one is you dropping off the cage, it's good the way he captured everyone looking at you doing the drop, the look of concentration just fits it all nicely, everyone just seems to be doing something. Bah I can't describe pictures very well :"> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted April 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 the look of concentration just fits it all nicely ← hehe, I think I was actually in the middle of a conversation with Chris about trials while doing that drop! My favourite's the first one with Chai's cheeky mug in the background! Cheers action-man, lol. There are some great pics. I wondered who that guy was with all the photo gear, shame he didnt take a pic of me He was a bit unsure how happy people would be if he just randomly started taking photos of them as he only really knows me and Paul. He's really sound though so if you see him around taking photo's say hi! i didn't realise the hardness of the first move until i saw the shape of the 'sundial' thing in the other pic. HUAGE! I like that move, I've always taken great pleasure doing big awkward 'ups' and that's a good 'un!! Cheers for all the comments guys, will pass them on to Chris :lol:.

CoppellStereo Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 nice pics! do you ride with Matt Staples? those places look familier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 Looking good, like the one with the wheel in focus and the rider out of focus. Make a good wallpaper if it was square. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted April 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 do you ride with Matt Staples? those places look familier ← Only ridden with Matt a couple of times in London. Stupidly good rider! I'm slowly getting there with the tech UCI moves though...slowly Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebor Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 the look of concentration just fits it all nicely Hehe, I think I was actually in the middle of a conversation with Chris about trials while doing that drop! Hmm, a look of calm concentration really tops it off then (Y) that's good though as there's no silly face like this to ruin it: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
