Lewis Gething Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Couldn't tell if I just watched a slide show or an actual video :/ Why can't I go over to Martigues and make a proper video for him Very impressive riding though. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alle.C Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Absolutely ridiculous bar angle .............. stupid is it really that stupid since he now is the best rider in our world? anyhow I really wonder what happened to the frame rate in this vid..

Ali C Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 "best rider" hmmm while I agree he's currently the best at comps, I don't believe current comps really test peoples actual riding ability to the fullest. Gilles is unreal at getting his bike up and over stuff, but I'd say Kenny was a better "rider". 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andeee Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Never mind his bar angle its the camera angles that annoys me even more. I have showed a big interest recently of watching a lot of comp riders to give me inspiration for tyke trials this years. Such as cousteillers, hannes hermann, vincent, Lazslo Hegedus, Kenny Belaey and Carthy etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostrider88 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 I don´t think he cares about "riding". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 true, and I think that's the fault of the way sections are designed, but that's a story for another day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEON Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 I don´t think he cares about "riding". I agree. I mostly avoid videos that are of "training" and not "riding" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimpanzyyyy Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 his st blaise vids where a billion times better I know its a grumpy opinion though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEON Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 I liked the old vids they did up north on the St Blaise, getting on the big lion etc. But all this hopping around the woods in tights with neon pixie boots shit just makes me wanna cry.

Matthew62 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 is it really that stupid since he now is the best rider in our world? anyhow I really wonder what happened to the frame rate in this vid.. Yeah but he's nothing compared to those guys over at that other world. P.S. That video (if you can call it that) was atrocious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostrider88 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 true, and I think that's the fault of the way sections are designed, but that's a story for another day. Your favourite rider helped with designing of sections in aelter and antwerp if I´m not mistaken, and they weren´t any different to those "french" ones. Big,technical moves is where it´s at. Deal with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Akkers? But yeah, I think there would have been a bit of an outcry if Kenny started messing with the usual comp layout, resulting in a lot of unhappy riders which would then make Kenny look bad, so I don't think it's much or a surprise there were no swinging tables or rolling barrels to get over. The Itadori comps are where it's at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisTrials2012 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) I find Kenny to be way better, because he can actually ride kickers, and because he at least has fun on both his street and comp bikes. Gilles is just a skinny lad who is all about winning and being an angry pr*ck. Edited January 10, 2013 by ChrisTrials2012 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 I think there would have been a bit of an outcry if Kenny started messing with the usual comp layout. After the Worlds round in Quebec where there were 'too many kickers' and it became starkly apparent that a lot of the top riders in the world were capable of hooking skyscrapers but couldn't ride up and off a foot high kicker, there were quite a few rumours about Kenny's involvement/relationship to the course designer, and that it was a comp 'designed for Kenny' because it used a lot of kicker lines. If you think back a few years ago too there was a comp section that just had a balance beam/rail that riders had to go along which claimed quite a few of the top riders because they just couldn't ride along a balance beam on their bikes. It's probably not really much of a surprise that a lot of the finals sections are as sterile as they are these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostrider88 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Rolling barrels like in Saalfelden? Gilles still killed it there and I think he cleaned that section without a problem. But Jack C, well he don´t have good memories from that section,that´s for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 can't find a link to the video with it in, but I was thinking like really big barrels, cable reel size (assuming the one you talked about was smaller?) I'd love to one day organize a comp with traditional trialsy stuff (rocks, logs, cocncrete etc) then have other things mixed in like a speed trial section, ramps, an uphill section (the further you get up, the fewer points you get like at moto comps), swings, seesaws and stuff like that. Maybe the last section would have you ride through oil soaked mud to make every one brakeless and see how they get on. I'm far far too lazy to ever do that though.
