    Minecraft!

    Yeah I didnt want to go through that ^^ because it seemed to be so many servers doing that there wouldn't be any point in mine. Plus if you got to work for stuff it makes the end result more worthwhile Fair enough its not for everyone... But my servers good with quite a few buildings going up in a nice organised manner. BTW JT I found snow, got some saplings and planted them around your house...
  2. You can camp onsite!! just bring a tent
  3. rolling gap technique at the end Beauty of a vid! Really loved watching that. Scary to think how long ago that was! such a beasty rider! Will has anyone done the sidehop from the bin outside the toilets up to the wall? (where they've put a railing now) I can see that being one Matt/Chris would do!
  4. Well, if youre talking about drilling holes in any of the tubes, yeah of course it will affect the strength! I assume you want to know if you do it, will it break a lot quicker than normal but thats usually pretty difficult to perform stress analysis in these circumstances. Its been done before and continues to be done, but for the sake of 'looking better' sacrificing frame strength and the life of the frame is not worth it. Whats your reasoning for wanting to run the cables through your frame? Please dont say that your grinding off the cable guides to save weight....

    Films!?

    Watched Limitless yesterday. Well worth it!Can't really fault it and im good at picking holes in storylines.... Watched it with the gf too so its got quite a wide audience. Just not good for people thick as shit.

    Quick One

    Are the splines on the profile cassette hub like this the same as shimano HG international standard splines? EDIT: and if not, whats the widest based splined sprocket available? Gusset?
  7. I broke my arm near there The peaks is great for gritstone stuff, always wanted to ride there. Beasty pics as always adam!
  8. Out of interest... why? Is it a crank/chainring issue?
  9. if you mean the koolstops, no Have a look through the last few pages of recent pad reviews. They give good ideas on the recent pads that people have used, how theyve used it, and what grinds theyve used them on. Usually I suggest ebay for everything, but for consumables like pads, go through tarty bikes. You will pay about £30 but they are worth the money... I found running blacks on a grind made no difference at all but you need to choose what braking you want as made above ^^. If you want the modulation, you may as well stick with the blacks on a smooth rim
  10. spot the spelling mistake... Any idea what the non compliance is? Never known a product recall on trials parts before

    24" Riders!

    Hi guys Just interested to see what is the norm for 24" these days. I think I already know but wanna see thanks
  12. damnit you, i was going to quote you and say that
  13. This is the beauty of trials. Get on your bike and start pedalling to somewhere. Keep your eyes open and you'll find something along the way that tempts you. Have a play on it, get bored, then move on! When I go to meet the local riders here, I have to add an extra 30 minutes because im riding stuff on the way to the ride. Obviously as you get better, more and more things open up and you can do more, but if you just get out on the bike you'll find something interesting. Theres no rule as to riding certain things will make you better quicker (except natural for balance) just do everything!
  14. What front brake do you have? And pads? Some pads work best on smooth rims too, so a grinded rim will shred the pad if used excessively! As said above answers your question. Don't forget if your riding downhill anywhere, you'll either have to skid the back tyre and wear that down, brake with the front (but you'll have no pads left at the bottom), or walk. Or go flying down it brakeless.......
  15. Really good, possibly my most favourite move (not movie, sorry ). The video was really helpful, useful and more importantly not repetitive at all - it was nicely broken down. There was 1 tiny thing that if being re-made Id suggest (otherwise its not worth it!). Where you go to do the switch 'use the rebound of the FRONT tyre' as I find this is where most of the move success comes from. I know its pretty obvious but im sure a lot of people wouldnt get it But the technique covers, as far as i can tell, everything! Nice work
  16. Probs youre best video yet imo... Really easy to watch and some fun looking moves along with the beast power moves... Song choice works too, never been a fan of the screamo stuff to be honest... but yeah was a good vid
  17. ankle thing was gross man Youre a beast still b*****d...
  18. Yeah manufacturing out of angle would be better, but gotta think of how to clamp it and whether youd need two ops. I think for the thickness (guessed from the drawing) It probably wont be strong enough to machine in one go so would need routing one side, then turn 90 degrees and rout the next. Is the design fixed? If not, have you considered routing the entire geometry in a flat sheet, and brake pressing to form the shape? You could rivet on gussets afterwards to provide the strength? Just a thought.
  19. Ive got a server, anyone wants to use it pm me It'll only be on when Im at the computer, not 24 hour dedicated...
  20. Hi guys Ive been working overtime since December last year and not been paid it up till now. Its about £270 so obviously im a bit f**ked off. All i get is my basic salary each month and despite me asking Ive had blame passed around and no one definitively say 'Definitly this month' Im well up for taking the company to court although doubt I need to take it that far but has anyone had experiance with this before? Do I need to raise a grievance procedure with the company? I leave at the end of June and I think they are hoping I'll give up chasing if I'm not on the island... Any info or advice would be greatly appreciated; Ive never had anything like this happen before. Every month we have doubts if we'll actually get paid, while the chief exec uses company money to hire limosines, stay in hotels etc etc.
  21. Hi guys I sold my camera a while ago, want to get back into so i thought Id jump on the HDef bandwagon. As well as trials, I was thinking about getting a headcam so I could also film some climbing too. Ive looked at the gopro stuff, but the VholdR stuff just seems a bit better value for money, and is pretty small. I can imagine for trials, if I wore it it would be unbelievably shaky, so I'd probably use it with a gorilla pod for trials, but has anyone had experiance / heard about problems with them? Thanks
  22. I got mine with an oil bleed. It was terrible! I shortened the hose exactly as the guide said, re-bled with water and now its beautiful; and I can't set brakes up well normally. Did you cut the hose at a wonky angle? I found that if the barb spins thats usually a cause of leaking as it can cut into the hose material more than desired...
  23. Yeah as said just lean back more. Also helps if you shift your weight back in one go, rather than gradually shuffle it back. If you don't you may find yourself picking up speed

    Footjamwhip On Rail

    Next is up to front onto the rail, then 270 whip so the back tyre lands on it... sick stuff
