TRA Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 I really enjoyed the coreographed stuff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) Shame they didn't say who the choreographer was really, should've put it in the credits. I felt like I'd seen this video before... Where have I seen some riders riding along that (or similar) wall recently? Edited July 24, 2014 by JD™ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niconj Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 (edited) HD stops at the border. Are you serious. If so that's ridiculous! I didn't really like the videos, not because of the lack of HD but because it's kinda boring seeing the same moves over and over. What I did like were the failed attempts on the last video. Shows that even Danny has to do things over and over to get it right on camera. Edited July 25, 2014 by niconj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously I love Dannys April 2009, Way Back Home and Industrial Revolutions more than any other his videos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niconj Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 Yeah, Highland Coos have a taste for high speed cable. I actually wasn't joking. Some BBC programs I can't watch in Germany w/o using a proxy server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Scotland is still part on the UK (for now ) so we do get full HD & BBC service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows that even Danny has to do things over and over to get it right on camera. What moves were repeated over and over? We did a few bunnyhops sure but I don't think I've seen a trials video that isn't just the same stuff in different locations other than Sean Watsons videos.

Clerictgm mk2 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) Moves are the same(because most of moves already "invented", lol), but can be used to do some creative flowy lines. Ali's arcade and Inspired in Barcelona are way higher in terms of creativity and quality than this vid.

Mark W Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 That's not too surprising though in that for this BBC video they had to have lines that allowed all 3 riders to do things sequentially, and had to be filmed in a certain way. If you lose the flexibility of being able to do whatever/whenever then you also lose the flexibility to be particularly creative with things, but in terms of videos filmed for stuff like this I'd say it's still a lot better than most. There are still some big/cool moves in it despite it having to be done in a fairly structured/rigid way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
