If you watch the outtakes video it looks like he was trying some gnarly stuff. I don't think the video was toned down intentionally, I think it's just the fact they only had three(?) days to film it and he ended up injured too. Three days in a new city is pretty much no time whatsoever to film unless you're super consistent. You have to find spots, think of lines, send them and get the camera work spot on.. It's a tall order. I imagine this would have been a lot better if he had a week.

If you end up having to do all six of them yourself, you have to do half of them wearing this...

That guy has 3,118 videos and the 'most popular' one has 59 views... Wow.

Cheers for not hating it everyone That's what I strive for! Thanks!!

Well that told me.

Nothing more romantic than shagging in the back of a van and watching a race where the chances are you're probably going to see someone die But for serious, pics please.

Not sure why you would show an up to rear followed by two clips of the same up poorly executed and one of a failed up. The other ups got the job done. Well done. Onwards and upwards

Yeah, definitely need to try stuff on first even if you do end up ordering online! No worries

I should point out that all this gear I used for diving but I did do a fair amount of snorkelling with it too. This is the closest I could find to the kit I own... As you mentioned, they do some pretty decent kits, that's what I bought and the quality is really good. http://www.tusa.com/eu-en/Tusa/Boots/DB-4000 http://www.tusa.com/eu-en/Tusa/Fins/SF-8_X-PERT_ZOOM http://www.tusa.com/eu-en/Tusa/Snorkels/SP-240_IMPREX_II_HYPERDRY_ELITE http://www.tusa.com/eu-en/Tusa/Masks/M-110S_VISIO_PRO As for sizing, the boots will just be your normal size, I'm a size 10 like you and the size 10 fits well. If you get a chance to try before you buy that could be handy too! But in my experience their boots are true to life. With the fins, they cover a range of sizes so you need to check the individual fin sizing really.. Size 10 is normally a medium/large. They normally say like 10-14 is large or whatever. Because the fin itself doesn't fit like a shoe you can get away with going to the lower end of a size group, for example: if it says medium/large 8-10, large/xlarge 10-12 I'd go for the medium/large.

I have a set of Tusa kit that's quite a few years old now but really does the job nicely. Split fins are awesome if you're a bit wimpy like me, I used to cramp up a bit but the split helps with that. I went for the open heel type too so you can walk around in your boots before clipping in, useful if you have to cross any rocks or whatever. As for snorkels, anything with a decent purge valve in the mouthpiece is gonna do the trick nicely. I can't really recommend specific models as my kit is outdated now, but TUSA is pretty damn good. The reason I mention facial hair is that I found with a bit of a beard on the go my mask always filled up pretty easy.

Have you got facial hair?

I was wondering why it looked like you'd torn the bottom off my envelope to get inside, then I remembered I wrote the address on upside down like a simple person. Pretty damn pathetic response from the people of TF. Sorry you didn't get a better result, Dave.

I've got no idea why he doesn't run a front brake, but as you can see, he doesn't really need one! Frenchies all the way. I can't help you with the rim question I'm afraid! The last bit is just pure science... Cool People + Cool Spots = Win

I can only see them on CRC for £126.49, but that's for the M820's which aren't trials friendly*. *based on what I've heard...

Lost in translation I guess...

The slow mo was awful, as were the cheesy transitions! Riding was cool though! I was thinking to myself 'why is his saddle so high' then you did a barspin!

It rains and it rains and it rains and it rains...

I just popped a quick IF on the raw data... =IF(AQ51*17=0,"",AQ51*17) It's probably a bit crude but it works..

Haha, cheers dude! This is a bit of a headf**k for me!
