matt tomlinson Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 back at otn we had a thread were you could post the cool stuff you had learned how to do. a kind of way to document your progress and show other riders how you are progressing. i didn't see that here so i thought i would make one. orginally the props for this idea have to go out to my buddy scott, sxbud on here. so i will start out. today i accomplished this little feat. and i made a new rear wheel last night.

chris4stars Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 im liking this idea...though all too soon i can imagine you being validated and having to repost in the full members area?! if possible, it would be idea if small clips like that are added, you can get a chance to see the progress, see the move itself...and probably get some good advice from the more experienced on here, which is ideal for a 2010 beginner like myself! will make a small vid to post to show my first 2/3 weeks of learning too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt tomlinson Posted January 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 hey guys, i am seeing that a lot of you are waiting until you have a video to post here. back at otn when this was running there, most of the time the guys just wrote out something really cool they did in the past week. so if you are just out riding describe what you pulled off in a literary fashion and that will totally suffice. doing that and having people willing to help out other beginners with technique ideas, whether through vids or writing will hopefully be able to take your riding up a notch. also as an idea. some of the guys back at otn would challenge each other in the beginner section to certain moves and then you would have to replicate it as best as possible. obviously that would require video though.

Laurence--Trials Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Not saying "no" to the idea. But isnt this what most people use the video's section for? Eg jack chinnery (sorry if i spelt it wrong) everyone knows how hes doing because he posts regular videos up. Laurence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eg jack chinnery (sorry if i spelt it wrong) everyone knows how hes doing because he posts regular videos up. Laurence. my take on it video wise was more along the lines of short clips, i took this sort of thing yesterday when out riding: (if it works...you may need to be on facebook) http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/video/vi...7091&ref=nf its not long enough to justify being in the vide section, and not exactly put together well or good enough that people would want to watch! being in the 'progress' section, people would have a heads up of what it was and not clog up the videos section with little clips...
