Greetings Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 What about taps?EDIT: To back obviously. I guess nobody's going to moan if your front wheel touches an obstacle for 0.1 of a second? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maladie Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Ooh i'm glad my idea actually happened lol.And to answer your question greetings, no, it wouldn't matter, and I think entrants should be allowed to use correction hops in their video's [unless they are a monster of a rider that doesn't need to ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben John-Hynes Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I guess nobody's going to moan if your front wheel touches an obstacle for 0.1 of a second?But most people take a 2 wheeled run-up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 But most people take a 2 wheeled run-up?So tap from a wheelie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan81 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I had a few comp ideas including these. Make of them what you will;1. Momentum - The bike has to keep moving forwards (or backwards) for the whole film. That means not pausing before the next obstacle or hopping on the spot.2. Creative Low - Low obstacles only, get creative on them.3. Top 3 - Clips only riding your 3 favourite local spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Creative Low has been done, we had the Curb comp for years on end and it got kinda boring...Everyone just either gapped to it or went round in circles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manuel Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 rear wheel only sucks ass - you are just going to get "sidehops" to rear maybe a wheelie tap and static gaps.everything on/to two would have been much more fun.I think my fave theme would have to be 1 line wonder - 1 take - one line (or string of lines). can be as long or short as you like. HAS to be all filmed in one take (you could do two different takes to get different angles but they have to be shown continuously for proof)LOL at the swear filter...

Dan81 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Creative Low has been done - we had the Curb comp for years on end and it got kinda boring...Everyone just either gapped to it or went round in circles.A curb comp is very specific...the point of saying just 'low' is to go out and find something to be creative with...rails in skate parks, grass banks, ledges, road name signs, little wooden posts, low gaps etc etc.1 line wonder - 1 take - one line (or string of lines). can be as long or short as you like. HAS to be all filmed in one take (you could do two different takes to get different angles but they have to be shown continuously for proof)totally agree, I don't want to see a load of sidehops and tape measures on walls...the one take would be great - anything that inspires smoother flowing riding is good for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cai Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 rear wheel only sucks ass - you are just going to get "sidehops" to rear maybe a wheelie tap and static gaps.True.Theme should be 'Manifesto'.So no unessercery correction hops, and stick to two wheels as much as possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Yes, although they nearly lost to team A in 2004.2004 was just a fluke. If you take the average of the four years, Team B score 60 points and Team A only score a lowly 14.75 points. Team B kick ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
