Didn't see your last vids so I can't relate to them but this one was quite good. Nice music, fairly good editing (apart from repeating the same shots many times) and good riding. The only thing I'd say is work on your sidehops because when pulling up the bike your body starts falling down. Maybe don't tuck? It will look way nicer as well.

Cheers, buddy. Thanks for the comment and thanks for keeping it constructive :) .

Don't understand that bit about the sidehop's though. It sounds like your contradicting yourself; if my body is falling that is the tuck? Please explain...

Comments much appreciated, people. Keep them coming, please.

Cheers,

Joe.

Yeah I don't know how to explain it. For instance in 01:32 you sidehop onto a rail. When you jump upwards, your bottom is roughly at the height of that roof in the background. By the time you pull the bike high enough to land on the rail, your bottom is already way "below" the roof. This means you're wasting your jump if you get me. Might be because you're not that big a rider?

Best explained with some screenshots, for some reason I can't get them done.

Watch Craig lee scott sidehop, his body is rising the whole time, the only reason he tucks is so that he can pull the bike up higher and more into his body. Whereas when joe does it his body actually lowers towards the bike rather than pulling it up?

I think thats what Inur means anyway.

stop it joe, you're too good now. :)

Haha, i'm blushing (that was a joke, by the way :P ). When you come England next year, Janson, i'll definately be riding with you... (Y)

Cheers for all the feedback, people!

Cheers,

Joe.
