Trials Dave Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 (edited) i know that most of us all really enjoy the zoo videos with great riding and excellent soundtracks. i am not saying i hate the videos or trying to cause offence to anyone but does anyone think these videos are starting to get a bit repetative? same old gaps to rails, sidehops and wheel swaps on rails. just an opinion. cheers.

lankyri Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 in a way i do agree on this yea sure the zoo vdeos are excellent and great excellent but to be fair but else is there else for them to do zoo 29 neil tunni its all new places so its all new sidehops and and huges gaps im not saying that the zoo vids and crew are repetative because its stunning what they are doing on their bikes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomo Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 Yeah i know what you mean mate, im starting to think that myself. Dont get me wrong i still think they are amazing videos and the riders are still awsome, some of the stuff they can do is unbelievable. All im tying to get at here is that i understand where you are comingfrom it does get a bit repetative but on the other hand so can any sport if you watch lot of it. :ermm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biff Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 Its just showing the turning point of bike trials today. Craig and neil are only doing what they think will impress and show how far they will go on a trials bike. Biff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petit_pablo Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 The videos are still good but they are doing showy moves that impress easily. Not that the moves are easy mind but people have seen it now and want something more!! Question is, what do they do next? How much more can be physically possible? :ermm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree totally,yeah big moves, so what. The new style bikes and people who ride them just seem to do the same kinda moves...It is boring...................... :ermm: Not very creative.That style of riding dont float my boat or sink my sub im afraid....

Martin Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 i agree and disagree but i think they're trying to push them selves not 'show off' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aff1e Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 i have watched most of the zoo vids and i do think that most of them are getting reppetative :ermm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_ferret Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 theres only so much you can do though surely just in bigger moe impressive ways B) oggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLATOUTSTYLE Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 theres only so much you can do though surely just in bigger moe impressive ways B) oggy Nar I think if you are creative you can do much more than you think, much more than the same poeple keep doing too. Big hops etc might look good but in reality the technical ability required to nail a very tricky line or whatever is more impressive to me...Think Ryan Leech and railways...

Trials Dave Posted October 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 yeah i would like to see some more technical moves in the videos. still big moves etc but some silly little moves would add some character to the vids. it would also inspire other riders because little, tech things are what they can try.

I know what you mean, just been out on my bike for a bit, and my balance felt amaZING, aint been out for a few week either..Just ON IT straight away. If you read my other posts you will see Ive been out ages and am having bad lower back problems too, but I felt good when I went out before. Also in my posts Ive been on about getting a new style frame,longer as Im 6'4 and ride a short 26mhz pashley, people have been saying "Oh no, you cant ride leech style street on one of them" Ive been arguing why not? You say you ride street? So why the hell cant you ride aggressive technical street on a comp bike....Its a trials bike and trials is WAAAAAAAAAAAAY more than just riding from point A to point B through some tape in under 2 mins??????
