Hey guys and girls,
My mates and I have been riding for around 4-5 months and you might have seen some of my videos i have ou together of us. I really like making videos and learning how to get good angles and make our riding look good.
Anyway, we usually ride more NS kind of stuff and road gaps/ distance jumps so far, but the last couple of weeks we have decided to try some of the local dirt jumps. We are jump trying to focus on landing smooth at the moment with a few small whips, bar tweeks and i even tried a one footer the other day too.:D
It's a pretty good video and it only goes for 1.42 minutes. dont get me wrong, we have done some fair size jumps, it's a good watch.
Anyway have a look and leave a comment about how we can improve.:)

you guys seem to be progressing quite well in riding and vid skills... were you guys out lappo on sat?? hmm saw a few guys down there... any way just get a feel for your own style of camera and editing work, not everyones the same... just a good mix of static and moving clips helps. also precision timing with editing makes all the diference... and choice of songs is half the battle...
that said, as for riding. work at your own pace and always be a sucker for peer pressure. i know it helps me get the nerve to bust three stair drops and the occasional ET!
Pyley says,
faster! faster! till the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death!
and when all else fails adrenalin will save you! failing that there's green whistles!

Yep that was us at lapstone the other day. A couple of you guys hit up the tramways gap. That was pretty nice. What bike were you on? Were you the guy in the pink helmet, the hartdtail or the one with the glory? Thats all i remeber, and the short guy with the black frizzy hair?

Pinky Helmet - Yeah, that'd be Pyley...
Glory - That'd be hammered - the hater. Stay away from him kids...
Hardtail - couldn't have been me, I'm in QLD! Black frizzy hair: Tadpole? or has littleman gone emo?
Just guessing...
