Miles Mallinson Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) Since I've been riding brakeless I never really rode any big drops, I found this place the other day its just a wasteland full of really nice contrete slabs (landed the first bit flat, that was what that clunking sound was might of been my wrists or my wheel), I thought I'd try some artsy fartsy stuff aswell. Not sure about the second last shots though they don't really fit in with it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEC7eEJ98G4 Any comments Edited May 13, 2011 by Milo123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalopS Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Pretty jealous you get to ride all day with a view like that! Looks like your riding is improving still. Brakeless drops are scary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Mallinson Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Yeh the views are pretty average I suppose , brakeless drops are alright if you can land them flat without jarring you wrists, not that I can do that.

aener Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 As a video, it was very nice. As a trials video, it was lacking in action a bit. What was there was very nice though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Mallinson Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) Yeh there wasn't much riding, I only filmed it all today though. I just wanted to experiment with more arty shots. Edited February 6, 2011 by Milo123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjsuperg Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Yeh the views are pretty average I suppose , brakeless drops are alright if you can land them flat without jarring you wrists, not that I can do that. try landing with a little pedal flick to transfer your momentum from down to forward, might help save your wrists a little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Mallinson Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) I'll try but I'd say its alot smoother too land them flat but yeh it does really hurt. Edited February 6, 2011 by Milo123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miles Mallinson Posted February 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 I think I'm gonna re-edit this with some more riding clips and take the bit out where I stare at the camera looking like I'm gonna murder someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirt jumper jake Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Yeh the views are pretty average I suppose , brakeless drops are alright if you can land them flat without jarring you wrists, not that I can do that. As soon as you land, do a wee bunny hop to take the force out of the drop, something i picked up from watching CLS vids, works everytime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Mallinson Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I do try and land them slightly on the back wheel, I'll try that next time. Does anyone like my new power rangers (urge) helmet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
