Behemoth

...So this has pretty much consumed my life this week.

I've been wanting to make a "big" video for a long time now.

Upon acquiring a new camera, I had the idea to do a "best of" type video for all the time I've had the one I just replaced. I then went off the idea, but Josh talked me back in to doing it, so I did.

It started out as a ~10 minute deal, but I kept finding clips and feeling I couldn't rightfully have clip x feature in it but not clip y, so it gradually grew and grew and... well... it is what it is.

Perfect excuse to scratch an old itch ;)

As it stands, it's still longer than most people seem to want to watch even though I've been fairly aggressive with the edit to make it as short as possible.

If you think it feels a bit disjointed and not really a whole-single-big-video, you'll just have to deal with it, because that's exactly the case :P

I'm not much cop at editing video, but I really enjoy it (hence the project) so it's essentially a slew of mini-videos all strung together.

Some people's clips aren't up to scratch with their others (largely speaking for myself here ;) ) but they got included 'cause they were a big deal to said rider at the time of filming.

Some of the clips are two months old, and some are a little over two years old.

I promised myself I wouldn't waffle so I'll leave it there except for an interesting list (just for the people who like to keep track of who's who, as there's rather a few):

Me: Red Jaf mod, 2011 Echo Lite, Spatter effect 2010 Onza Comp (pro paint job innit blud - mostly just looks black in clips though :P), Bionic B4S.

Josh Leech: Red Jaf stock (maybe it doesn't feature... can't remember), Black Jaf stock, Echo Pure.

Kyle Livesey: 2010 Inpulse R26, 2011 Inpulse R26, Koxx Coustellier, Black Onza Zoot (doing a backflip :P ).

Ben Roberts: Zona Zennith, Yabbaa 1499.

Noori Brifcani: Echo Control.

Cocky: Born Ultimatum, Maestro, Neon X-Ray, Inspired Hex.

Paul Ruskin: Raw Onza Limey 4 (and me for one up-to-front), Stantard Onza Limey 4, Echo 24".

Chris Hinson: Fans Speed Race stock.

Chris Groves: Because Trial 24".

Shaun Hook: Zhi Z3 (I think?)

Tim Stedman: Pashley.

Ben John-Hynes: Ozonys XS26.

Adam Thompson: 2008 Neon Bow stock.

Jamie Allen: Adamant A1.

Sorry Carl - I don't know how I've ended up with no clips of you. The only one on any of my HDD's is the SuperCrash, and that's for a different project ;)

Some have just one clip, some have a lot.

Making this made me realize just how much more important good riding company is than merely riding. Thanks you guys.

Edit: YouTube blocked it, so here it is on Vimeo. It's still yet to convert (currently 13:10, not sure how long conversion takes) but I have to go to work and won't get back 'till late, so you might have to wait a bit yet.

Sorry - 720p only as the 1080p was in excess of 5.5GB.

@ 15:05, that is literally the best thing i have ever seen :bow:

yea pretty much 26 minutes of awesome, kind of wierd though as thats the first of any clips i've seen of you riding with brakes!

the guy running just a rear brake is pure boss, i've seen him in a couple of your videos and i like the fact he just runs a rear brake only.
