Mark Matthews - Super 8 Saturdays: This was already on the homepage but I think it got overlooked. Mark and Stefan shot this entirely on Super 8 film. How neat is that?
Swinley Sessions 2: This is the result of a week-long (nightmare) shoot which took place at Swinley Forest in October; my gratitude and apologies to all that sacrificed their time in-order to make this happen, special thanks to everyone who manned a camera and gave me the opportunity to ride on this.

The Moe Show: Malcolm and I have been working together for a few years now shooting stills of him riding and since I got my D800 we've been filming a bit. My first more serious filming project and I'm quite happy with the way it came out, although with Moe's riding I would have had to do something special to mess it up. We got an overload of clips, so expect another edit soon, otherwise, sit back and enjoy: THE MOE SHOW.
#RailNZ - A week in Queenstown: Five blokes from rural NSW, Australia, take a weeks holiday in Queenstown, New Zealand - the land of Fergburgers, jam-jars and ridiculously good DH riding. Music: Flume - Sleepless (Feat. Jezabelle Doran), Zeds Dead - Ruckus The Jam.

Rampage 2012: As I was working as a sherpa carrying the riders bikes up the mountain all week, I snuck my camera in to do a little filming. This is just some film I acquired while working. I threw it into an edit with just a terrific beginning.

How about refusing to post video's from people who don't wear helmets...
Seems completely retarded that you post non-helmet video's and a video which shows what bad helmets can do...
Thats what I would do , fed up of watching these dick heads ride with no lids , fair enough they don't give a shit about their health but i'm sure Girlfriends/mothers/brothers don't want a vegetable for a relative.
I guess it's a good thing that people have brains and can ration if what they're doing warrants the use of a helmet or not based on their personal risk assessment skills... I'm always about wearing helmets but I can't understand why people who do wear helmets care if other people, that they don't know, wear them or not. It's called personal responsibility and it's none of your business. Just ride your bike and enjoy the riding that other people do without chastising them for their choice of what they want to wear.
There are so many talented riders and videographers on this site. You know that a lot of young and aspiring athletes come here to get inspired and take their riding to the next level. All of you who contribute are role models for those up and comers. Let's give them a positive message that wearing a helmet is where it's at.
Doggier has a good point, I'd be the last one to meddle in other peoples business, or care what people I've never met do, but I worry about up an coming riders getting the idea in their heads that helmet-less riding is cool, or "real riders" go without them. Personal responsibility is one thing, but people have to realize the effect that high profile riders have on impressionable minds.
Doggier- I guess that's what parents are there for... I watched plenty of helmet-less riding and have always done it on going to parties (one of the only benefits of moving to suburban hell) but because my parents always taught me that a helmet is the smartest choice, I learned to wear for every ride. I guess what I'm saying is that blaming bad habits on some bike edits a kid watched online is stupid. If he's not wearing a helmet then he didn't have parents that cared if he wore one or not... and then there are some people out there that find helmets so uncomfortable that wearing one puts them in the wrong state of mind while skiing/snowboarding/skating/bmx, to a point where their chances of crashing are multiplied... think of it like people who wear and don't wear LEATT braces or chest protection. Who cares. Let them ride how they ride.
I don't think anyone's "blaming" bike edits for people not wearing helmets, but you're right that the issue is bigger than just what people do in videos. And the comments section on MFYM probably isn't the place to come up with any answers lol.
Nice to see the Tehachapi Woodward West crew throwing down some great footage. Props to Jake. I wish my son was able to take more camp classes from him. Great guy! Kinda sad we moved away from there. We lived 1 mile from Woodward West
