Heatsink Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 I'm pleased to introduce the very latest Vid from Dan Burton. Some huge 20" riding going on from the Danster! Dan's been busy thrashing my pads and helping me nail the geometry for my imminent CNCed 4 bolt booster. Whilst doing this he's managed to gather the following riding footage showing how big he's going. He makes it look so easy! Link to the Vid download: www.heatsinkbikes.com - Please don't lazy link! Some of the footage is quite raw, and the vid recording quality will be much better in the next one which Dan is already pencilling out. Enjoy.

TheMunn Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Didn't like that one much. Riding was good but the quality was poor and editing could have been better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Booth Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 no offence, but that was preety much the same as every other python video going big. no style, heavy music, hearing the rim getting raped, and poor editing. Sorry but its what i thought. Riding was mucho impressiove, but no style or precision in it. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trialsguru Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 is it just me or does he look too big for a mod? dont get me wrong riding was impressive but like someone else said just lacked style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 no offence, but that was preety much the same as every other python video going big. no style, heavy music, hearing the rim getting raped, and poor editing. Sorry but its what i thought. Riding was mucho impressiove, but no style or precision in it. Tom Agreed. I think i've said this before in another video where someone was riding a python. Don't get me wrong, he certainly has some skill, and goes stupidly big, but thats it. Theres not style there. There was also so much space to entertain better lines. For instance, when he gapped to that pipe, he could of then gone up the concrete block then back down to the pavement. Gap gap, drop, gap, sidehop, gap is all well and good a few times, but when its done on the same bike, or so it seems, by every rider going, it starts to lack in the pleasure department. Nice try though, and you are certainly a very good rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalopS Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Your ridings getting huge burton! but your vids still arnt great. The music you pick for them is too fast to go with you riding, it just doesnt mix well. The effect you use at the start is awful and pritty pointless really. Looking forward to seeing what you have for use next though ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom e Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Agreed. I think i've said this before in another video where someone was riding a python. I remember you saying it, and it was dant-lite(?)'s last vid I'm sorry, but that video was painful to watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicH_87 Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 sorry dude, but that's the first video in a while i've watched on mute. That is the worst song ever, it makes Joe's choice of music look almost respectable ^_^ kinda gutting as-well becasue there's so much potencial as you can obviously ride really well, but it's wasted on another CLS/Tunni-a-like editing attempt. I know those two riders influenced a lot of people recently, but they are still the only ones who go huge, and still have their own style, and they are also the only two riders i've seen that can pull off a video combined with heavy music, (although even tunni almost fell short on his last outting). Unfortunatly for you i hope yours is the last video of this kind, big respect for putting media out there as a lot of people don't ever bother, but please can you try and work on your own style for the next one. My comment isn't anything personal and i'm trying not to sound harsh on you, but it's to a few other riders who have perhaps seen CLS/Tunni, been blown away, and tried to go for the same effect, when they quite simply can't pull it off. hope you see where i (and others^) are coming from and don't blow up about it, cos your riding was impressive, but just didn't seem to have 'your own' edge to it.

flipkickbs Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Nice riding, some big lines in there! Video quality was a bit poor though but hopefully will be better in the next vid ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 I see 'going big' as a style. Rather than saying he has no style. Still can't get over the fact that i'v been riding longer than you..... ^_^ Becuase i'm shit. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Cook Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Riding was really good dan but the music dent seem to go with it very much. The quality was alright though i thought ^_^ :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JIX Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 I quite enjoyed it. I suppose the saving grace for it would be that its only 2mins long so doesnt really have the chance to get too boring. I agree with people who say there was potential for some nice lines in there, but maybe he does ride lines when not filming or maybe the moves he was doing were at the edge of his limit so it was hard enough to do the one move. The rolling gap over the road would have been nice to see the gap then up onto the wall right infront of it. But again this will come with time, as will style. ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBProductions Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Nice riding , shame the quality let you down. Style isn't always important you're riding thats the main thing and its good. I tend to disagree with peoples bad opinions , he knows the editing is bad and the quality poor so why go on about it. Just have a read through about editing and compression and sod what people think about the music its you're own choice and to be honest you'll never please everyone. Keep up the riding Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damon W Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Every saying "oh Dan has no style" is utterly wrong imo as he DOES, as he goes BIG and isnt at all rough infact most the time Dan is quite smooth ^_^ So he does have a style. To be honest most people are following the trend of cls /tunni by going huge ect ect and in my opinion there nothing wrong with that as it shows the riders influences. AND people saying "oh btw it would have been good if you did the sidehop after the rolling gap ect ect" thats the other problem most of them recomendations would have meant the lines were excessively long and wouldnt go with Dannys go big style. Dan i liked the Video and thought the song went well, BUT dont like the song. GOOD RIDING!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burton Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Cheers for the comments. If you dont like my style(which some of you must be blind, because UCI street is my style), then meh. Music was my own personal choice. I was happy with my editing, but id like to see you lot do a better job. Vinco dude: yer it was me with Dumun :) Already said the quality was poor, but no-one raved on about it in EVERY post when CLS made his latest vid ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biff... Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Not a bad video is a keeper but didn't overly like the music :) About the style thing, i think his style is good he gives it his all the way i ride, i like to ride like that because i get a buzz out of it big drop gaps,taps,hooks etc ^_^ Keep it up.

RicH_87 Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 i was talking about video style, not riding. i wouldn't normally say anything 'bad' but it kinda got to me with the good riding spoilt (imo) with bad music choice etc. keep it up anyway, i look forward to your next one.

Sorry but its what i thought. Riding was mucho impressiove, but no style or precision in it. Tom Yep, same stuff in 9/10 videos nowdays IMO, i prefer connected lines that aren't drop after drop after drop to a switch on a rail. i have to be honest and say i didn't watch the whole vid because i couldn't stand the quality. hope the next one will be better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biff... Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 The video is well short sure you could put up with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazy_gap girl Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 no vid is not good.. but can always be better.. the same with anything that you make most vids are now basicly all the same .. they have an intro have heavy music and then end.. you all know the trialskings vids are the best, try learn off them and the way james edited them with the right kind of music and what type of clips to fit in at the right moment.. i recon its a talent to edit vids, most people bring out street vids and it is baiscly 4-5 moves and its getting harder to create new longer lines as for your vid i'd agree with most people on this one..
