nmt_oli Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Didnt expect that footage to be in a vid so quick, good work andy.I see where all these comments are coming from, but hey so what if it is all the same stuff? surely its just liek watching a vid filled with taps and hops and nothing else.Its a pretty well edited vid, and enjoyable, so what if its not "trials"? There not exactly riding long low and silver steeds now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Manning Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 (edited) LMAO no grounds? are you sure we were watching the same video. Manual.. manual... turn.. manual... turn.. fake.. manual.. it was pure shit. If you didnt check, this sub forum is called trials videos. Not crap bmx-street videos.. id class boon as a street rider in my books. Atleast what he does resembles trials even if its not fully to my taste and to be fair.. he said it himself.. its just poor bmx. Nuff saidJust shut the hell up, you are clearly a simple minded person, who sees trials as sidehops, taps, gaps. But in reality trials is whatever you want it to be, thats why there's so many different styles. Also some of the things trials riders do at parks, bmx riders find impressive because we're mixing up trials and bmx, where as bmx riders can only ride bmx style.If you hated the video that much, then you should have just said you didn't like it, instead of slagging it off. All you have done is made yourself look like a twat, and if thats how you make your opinion's, then you're the type of rider that takes the fun out the sport and gives it a bad name.By the way, Romsey station is just up the road from the park. It's a small area of park but there's so much to do there. If your thinking of going then go, you'll love it.

If your thinking of going then go, you'll love it.When did i say i see trials as sidehops, taps and gaps? jebus you are making a very large assumption there, which for the most part is totally off on what i like.I didnt ask for all the abuse thats been thrown back at me. All i said was i thought the video was pure shit. Like you said its how i make my own opinions and if im the "type of rider" who takes the fun out of trials then heaven forbid that people who actually bum "taps, gaps and sidehops" comes in here and watches the vid. We'll probably find you sat in the corner self harming or something eh?Some people do what they wanna do, some people do what they think they are supposed to. Which catergory do you think you fit into...Squawk! Spacemunkee wanna cracker?Once again another assumption has been made, someone thinking they can ride in on their high horse and tell me what i should or shouldnt be doing. At no point did i say that they should stop what they are doing all i said is its not trials as i see it. My perception of the video is damn right in my books and since this is a forum im entitled to my own opinion.

I'm just making fun of your view because I find it silly. Please continue to think how you please; it's quite upto you. I think perhaps my disagreements of your views are tinged in annoyance. I must admit I would prefer it if my comments weren't based on that. I don't want to be annoyed by you.

munkee Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 There are ways of getting your opinion across without coming across as a complete tool though.How is it coming across as a tool? Just because i am one of the only posters to not like the video and dont care for the whole pussy footing around the subject doesnt make me a tool.Once again another assumption has been made, someone thinking that I am telling them what to think I'm certainly not!

1a2bcio8 Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Hey, I'm not perfect Intellect and feeling don't always go hand in hand. And anyway, my lacking annoyance still probably wouldn't have stopped me from mocking your point of view. I suspect you don't like lots of things; that often things don't correlate with your expectations causing you to react strongy against them. I'm not having a dig here. I just did a similar thing albeit in a seeminlgy less intense way than yourself. I'm not taking the piss either; just being curious.I have friends who are similar to how I just described. Not liking the majority of their environment must suck. Maybe I'm wrong about you though in that regard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanJohnstone Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Loved it, good work Andy. Stanley f*ckin rules! When you flying out for some Geneva/Annecy skatepark? Now that the weather's good I'm gonna keep an eye on Chamonix dirt jumps too, you never got to go last time.Bring on the summer and bring on more videos like that!

Ben Cox Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 as a vid it was up to scratch with all the nbr stuff, but i was kinda hoping for a trials vid, not a street/ bmx vid... ho hum, still a good vid andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'm wrong about you though in that regard?Just this video actually.. which is the reason why i posted in the first place about the dissapointment in comparison to the old vids. Perhaps you are the one that is having the reaction since my post doesnt correlate with your views? you ride 24 and it seems since the early glasseye vids (which i watched a lot) you are moving towards the same style of riding (the 50odd second youtube vid i wont watch ever again) as in this nbr vid and so there is your reasoning to be a bit in a huff because i didnt bum nbr senseless this time around.Or perhaps i just made a giant assumption and leapt to ridiculous conclusions and infact did make personal digs like all of your posts?so spacemunkee, if this isn't trials and tap+gap+sidehop isnt trials. what is?When did i say tap, gap, sidehop wasnt trials? i said its something im not personally in to (the whole inch pushing who can do further/higher). Id rather sit down and watch a good natural video with technical lines which requires the rider to plan more than just throw himself/herself at an object and hope for the best.

I agree with the natural riding part, because that is your choice, if you prefer natural riding, then thats cool. but to go on and say that riders just throw themselves at objects and hope for the best, is obserd. there is more to it than that, just like natural riding.How bout we all just drop it, you didn't like the video, that's fair enough, but you din't have to be so nasty about it.

that NBR dude Posted April 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 NBR has never been just about "trials" and however you see it. Its about a group of people, who ride together, have a laugh, and videos are made to show everyone what these people can do. If I wanted to, I would make a BMX video, and still call it NBR26, because thats what it is. Why should I be confined to film one thing. There is no rule stating that all NBR videos must be purely "trials". NBR is about people and bikes, and any kind of bikes. I dont care if people dont like the vid. There are lots of vids on TF that I dont like. But I dont go and cry about it. I just go, "hmm that wasnt the greatest", and move on with my life. I personally like my video, and think it expresses the talents of 2 riders. So their style isnt the same as yours. To be honest, thats great, as it means there is some hope in the world that people will live their own life, and be their own person.Thank you to all the people who have posted positive and useful comments.

D4T Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 (edited) That was the shitest "trials" video i have ever seen. I would rather have sat through 3 hours of boumsongs video on repeat than watch that again. Seriously wtf has gone wrong? i used to love the old nbr videos.. now its just a bunch of gays on big boy bikes trying to do bmx. I know theres the whole "trials street scene" but atleast they resemble trials at some point.. this was just ughh.. i feel sick.Amen that man, was boring as hell and nothing was very impressive.... Correct me if im wrong but this is the "Trials Videos" section of the forum isn't it? XC vids anyone? lol Edited April 2, 2007 by D4T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
