Brandon returns home after wrapping shooting on “Rad Company” and is joined by R-Dog , Logan, Inty and Jeff Herbertson for some laps at the new Coastal Gravity Park. Brandon and Logan session the new indoor BMX park in Brandon's yard and the boys team up for a game of BIKE on the mulch jump.
Unfortunately I think so. I SOOOO excited for Rad Company that I bought it the minute I heard it was available on iTunes. Needless to say I think it was one of the biggest letdowns I've experience with bike films. Sure the riding was fantastic as always (what do you expect, it's has Aggy, Matt Miles, Semenuk, Zink, ect), but the overall presentation, filming, soundtrack (songs were great, just not really fitted to the riding), and the excessive slow-motion shots kinda detracted from the whole experience.
I totaly agree with arkon, super excited after seeing the trailer and then bought it and prity disappointed. I think if they didnt do this series as kind of a 'behind the scenes' and put alot more of the goofing around in the actual video it woulda been much better.... minus fake rain and fog
I'm surprised people have been disappointed with Rad Company- I thought it was amazing. I have to agree that the use of slow mo was a little excessive and the rain section is just self-indulgence on the film-maker's part... but apart from those small things it was stunning. Oh, I would have liked to have seen more from his house and yard because that was one of my favourite sections from the Inside Out. I don't think Rad Company is as ground breaking as Seasons, but we're in a different era now. I still loved it.
If I wear a white jersey and it gets muddy or I take a spill there's no effing way to get dirt stains out of the white fabric without bleaching the colours out. Yet Semenuk's is always so fresh… he either gets a lifetime supply from TLD or has figured out the secret MTB detergent secret...
To the people who said Rad Company was a "Let Down" You are ridicules. Rad Company had the best MTB riding out of any movie made up to this point, (for this type of riding). The riding in every section was unreal. Just to list off a few of the things that Happened through the film, oppo whip to reg whip bar, tuck to bar to can, a few cork 7s, one off a stepdown. A unreal natural gap done by James after a rowdy face line. One of if not the biggest drop to natural landing by Cam. Oh and FIJI. If you think any of this is a "Let Down" you guys are very spoiled, and should go make you own movie.
Not really, they're built super solid. Rode there that day when these guys filmed it(yaay got 0.275s shot in LBB!), there was hardly any wear on them trails. Stoked to go back this weekend!
It's crazy watching Brandon ride BMX; I could go to my local skatepark and see people pull those same tricks. But then you put him on a slopestyle bike and he's one of the best in the world. Cool video
EDIT: AND THE PLAYLIST 2 MISFITS SONGS!
