manxrider Posted October 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 oops musta missed it the first time B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spangler Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 (edited) Got it the first time but it still holds my interest now even though there are better riders out there now. I will remember the mtt vids for a long time just because they are so fun to watch as aposed to really serious massive moves with no fun involved. IMO!

I spent aaages downloading it watching once (barley) and was really dissapointed, I then deleted it. Did you not find the no handed backwheel drop enlightening? or the no footed sidehop? I loved it cos it showed some original tricks which id never seen before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got VERY bored with it, the intro lasted like 5 mins.... and the rest of the riding was crap lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-man Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 Just watched it for the 1st time in aaaggges, and now I know why! The one thing that I hate about that vid is the intro, takes about 3 hours to go through everyones names so I just get bored and turn it off.

RicH_87 Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 Gotta remember guys that this video was made ages ago, I thought at least 2000? maybe before, i've certainly had it on my PC for over a year. riding has progressed so much so fast that their moves might look shit by todays standards but there's still some amazing moves in there and i think it's great they put in so much effort to make such a big video. Especially seeing as some people slagging it never contribute any trials media at all. Fair enough have an opinion, but at least watch it all before you slag it off.

Si-man Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 . Especially seeing as some people slagging it never contribute any trials media at all. Fair enough have an opinion, but at least watch it all before you slag it off. Maybe because some people (like myself) just ride for fun and arent arsed about filming it. Why would anybodt want to watch a video that has a shit beginning?? That's the part that is supposed to make you think "'ay up, this vid is gonna be ace!" This video didn't do it for me and a few other people on here :P Oh, and I have watched it all before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 I got the trailer when it first came out, and that was around early 2001... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicH_87 Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 balh blah blah... Oh, and I have watched it all before it was a general comment, not aimed at you personally, incase you thought so. and fair enough Mark, thought I read it was older, early 2001 is still nearly 5 years old.

trellex Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 The moves are out dated, you. The only pro riders there, that are still around, are Morley Wilkins, Mike Bentham and John Webster, at least from the top of my head. Bentham is just a freakin' smooth rider, and Webster has been dominating the competitions. I've ridden with all three but webster. But you, I got this movie a long time ago, it was the first one basically, that I ever had. I thought it was the shit. I still look at it sometimes just for kicks. I agree though, the intro is pretty long. Check out John Webster and Morley's section. Completely sick cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Foamoi Refresher Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 yeah man, i gota say morley wilkins style is sick as f**k! he has such original moves, and just a crazy b*****d i like the video, even though the outdatedness, and the intro, its still fun to watch point in slagging other peoples work off? wtf? luisio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
