How long is the movie gonna be?

Don't have barspins yet, But I'm working on them. The video will be like fifteen to twenty minutes hopefully. It's hard to get a lot of footage without repeating the same spots and tricks since we can only film in riding distance.

At least you are working on them. I'm too scared to try it.

They piss me off because every time I try and throw them, I automatically take my foot off.

Haha I always wondered what the colors were for. I assumed it had something to do with how many posts you had.

I don't know, the stuff in the video didn't look easy to me.

Honestly, I couldn't sit through 15 to 20 minutes of that type of video. Short edits with your favorite tricks are OK, but...

The video quality looks pretty bad, and it's not just because of pootube. The framerate is way slow, so the motion looks terrible. The filming, where it's not fixed on a tripod, isn't that great either.

It's good that you're out there making videos and stuff, but maybe you can save up and get a camera something like what your logo has in the background, and a skateboard for rolling shots? VX1000's are like a grand or less, a few months at a part time job. Canon Optura 10's are a lot less but supposedly pretty good.

I didn't mind it. Although after i heard the music, i muted it because my Jawbreaker was far superior.

The actual video will be a lot better. Those clips are all from my digital camera that I had on my computer. We are making the full one on my friends and he has an actual camcorder whatever. I just made a video because I currently have no back wheel and can't ride so I took what I had since we weren't using it.

Chris Gabriel
09-15-07, 07:35 PM
What Haven are they going to. I heard they took it down cause they couldn't pay for rent and that they were looking for somewhere to put the ramps..

09-15-07, 07:39 PM

Sweet. The guy who owns my local shop said he was going to open a shop next to a park in North haven, so maybe thats what he was talking about.

How is it that I can put up what I think is a pretty damn good video (good enough for Imeem to get ahold of me because they're interested in my work) and get almost no comments, and then somebody puts up a video filmed with a cellphone with a bunch of fairly boring footage and gets way more comments? This seems to happen on every board...

*got three flats so far this week*

Cause I'm that damn cool.



actually becasue we start talking about other things that have nothing to do with the thread...like the "New memebers read this first" thread

It's because on the whole, your videos are not of you. It's not a bad thing it's just that we all prefer to see riders we talk to. Besides, I always comment your vids

The day after I said that I haven't got a flat in a year, I got a leak from having no rim tape. Then a few days later (yesterday) it got bad and I bought a new tube. Today I went to ride and it was low but I though it was just from riding hard. Then that got horrible and I had to go buy another tube and I didn't feel like going home to put electrical tape on my rim so for the first time ever, I bought a rim strip. Funny thing is I have been riding that rim with nothing on it for about two months and havent gotten a flat.

It sounds like the spokes are pulling through...

No it sounds like he had no rim tape...

FitRider 921
09-23-07, 06:29 PM
Yes, that too. But, if they are just suddenly messing with the tube after a couple of months without rimtape, and it's a constant problem, it may be that the spokes are pulling through at least a slight bit.

It's just that I've been riding really hard that last couple days.

I got $20 off of my $131 order a week or so ago. So it came out to be about $111. Can't beat that. :)
