JoNnY__Mc Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Beast, not bad that, although I have to say doen't really show how good the pads actually are! I will be making a video as soon as possible to help promote the red pads as I am very impressed with their performance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suckorz at riding , now you can see why i'm not in the riders section Just got the camera working again though and went out for 10 minutes down the end of the road to get at least some footage viewable, even if the riding level is low as an arctic blizzard.

Petrum Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 i see you got your front wheel/ chain sorted out again after bunny , nice vid! Btw when are you gonna be selling the red pads? my pads are f***ed so wouldnt mind trying the red ones for smooth rims! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 That video doesnt really prove how good the pads are just how loud they are. To prove if there good are not you want to be showing gaps or taps where you dont quite make it perfect. That shows if the pad has good hold or not.

To prove if there good are not you want to be showing gaps or taps where you dont quite make it perfect. That shows if the pad has good hold or not.I didn't make the video to prove anything, its just we've had loads of emails asking if theres any footage of the pads being used and up until now, there hasn't been. As soon as i got a firewire card for my pc we went out for 10 minutes or so to get some footage of me using them. Now people can see that we have more than just pictures of material and that they hold all of my 16 stones of bodyweight for normal riding. I wasn't going out to try and beat personal bests, wasn't pushing myself a great amount at all and the only thing on my mind was getting some footage on the tiny walls.As for hold, you want more stuff like this?

Davetrials Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Im sorry but that video doesnt want to make me buy any pads at all, maybe if you got a ride who would actually push the pads limits, not some (no offence) average rider who clearly isnt pushing them at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamAllen Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Im sorry but that video doesnt want to make me buy any pads at all, maybe if you got a ride who would actually push the pads limits, not some (no offence) average rider who clearly isnt pushing them at all I agree with what Dave is saying.Also I can see where you're coming from.But I surpose when Danny or Johny get a vid out it will be seen how good the pads are.If you need any more riders, give me a shout lol.Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.Wood Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Just as a suggestion, for another video of yours i'd like to see them on a natural setting, hopping up a slanted rock forwards and such.Sounds like they make an ok noise though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krisboats Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 (edited) Im sorry but that video doesnt want to make me buy any pads at all, maybe if you got a ride who would actually push the pads limits, not some (no offence) average rider who clearly isnt pushing them at all Thats fine, i've already said that the video isn't intended to show them off to their full performance, just to show that they are working and that they make noise. With you not having access to our email accounts you wouldn't know that the majority of people are asking how much noise the pads make, rather than how well they work. This is just a quick set of clips to answer the main question people seem to be asking. Besides, i'd be hard pressed to make a video that has a form of artificial intelligence that wants to make people buy pads. Closest i think we'll be able to do for the next video is releasing a video that makes people want to buy pads. I would have liked to do some riding on natural for initial clips but unfortunately we were being asked the aforementioned question on their vocal abilities and a lot of people disregard natural riding if street stuff is also available (easier to relate to street i guess).

Danny Kearns Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 To Mat Smith - My reds on front, ermmm, well, stupidly good. Loads of bite, Loads of grab, Loads of lock, Nice noise, Unbeliavable hold. Amazing pads really are.5 Times better than my Old Style zoo Pads! and that takes alot beat.Danny.
