ok made http://www.xspork.com/mugatu/videos/urban.mov but its pretty bad mostly due to crapy footage. (really we dont suck this much) im just wondering if anyone thinks anything at all in the video is worth keeping or if it should just be scraped. 3mb small and bad quality but who cares. ill shut up now. also lots of the stupid little moving graphic things are just tests so ignore them.

My friends and I tried to make a video. It's fun and makes the rides a little flavor to them. Ours was almost all on the trails though.

The higher quality definately makes a difference for the better. It's kind of repetitive though. I'd try to get some more spots in there.

Nice job though.

when weather warm up may get a boat and wakeboard but for now biking all we got. perhaps kitesurfing.

26 meg is a lot for that video. take down the sound quality and you will notice a big difference, we dont need cd-quality music while watching it. nice vid though

Most of the stuff is pretty bad. I'd keep some of the good stuff. A good way of telling whats good and what's not is to ask yourself: Can anyone do that or do you need skills and/or experience to do it? If you answer "anyone can do it" scrap it and if you answer "you need skills and/or experience to do it" then keep it

wll the term "anyone" means something different to everyone. can my brother do any of that no. can a pro do any of that yes.

Some of the riding in your vid is pretty good for the camera but...

It is very repetative and some of it does make you look like ordinary riders. But there are the good bits. To make this look better just try and mix up the riding show different things and try to go bigger. One thing that i think would be good that you could do easily is just build a wooden ramp or make a northshore drop onto that big down slop that you guys are bunny hopping onto. It would look sick if someone really launced that hill.
