GoPro is in the desert at this year's Red Bull Rampage and so are all our riders! Today's edit is with Alex Prochazka (#2 qualifier) as he talks about his line and then gets down and sends it for us.
Would have been sweet to see a solid gopro vid of alex riding his line top to bottom, but good shots nonetheless. Look forward to seeing alex in the finals. Woo woo
Huge props to Brad and Cam for holding down the Rampage coverage today/tonight! The crappy weather's obviously causing havoc with the satellite and local video feeds. Shame for the riders, shame for the event and shame for us viewers, but hey, **it happens! Guys, don't hate on RedBull...they don't control the weather!
Just been down to the shop...DR Pepper, Red Bull (on ice), sweets, Ben and Jerry's Cookie Dough and fudge bars waiting for it to begin Hope we get to see a solid full run on a helmet cam not just bits though
live feed ya right. what a total embaressment. all these pros totally throwing down as a premier showcase of freeriding and the feed is left up to a bunch of rank amateurs. we invite friends to check this out and the oppurtunity is totally lost. pb should send there own peeps to do run vids to uplopad . i can wait a few min.s or however long then follow with edits. brutal
Me and some friends have been down here all weekend......for those of you chiming in about videos sucking, and or live feeds being lame, blah blah blah.......come down here and do it yourself if you can do it better. If you were actually here, taking the time to watch the 1hr hike a bike to the top of the drops, on a venue in the middle of nowhere, with no cell reception, no water or electricity (except for the daily gnarly lightning storms) maybe then you would change your tune. Red Bull, the camera crews, the riders and fans absolutely are the best in the world, making sh*t go down in a brutal environment under insane conditions. This is NOTHING like Crankworx, or the luxuries of the GLC. It is raw, hot as hell, and so big, that if a rider even survives two runs in a single day, he is a KING. There is a reason Gee Atherton only took one run in the finals today. He got one in the bag and called it good. Point is, admire the efforts of every hard working athlete and filmer that is down here! They all rule, they are all giving their best, and I have a hard time believing you could do it better, because if you could, you'd be down here, and your not.
How, for the god sake, they do it, that the colours are so awesome in gopro videos, my are always dark, not so colourful and like blurred :/. Sorry for ot btw.
@ the guy who neg proped me,ive got footage from sunday when the light was poor and the video quality is pap so unless you have some amazing gopro that works better than everyone else gtf.
Hope we get to see a solid full run on a helmet cam not just bits though
