The urban canyons of Gotham City are his territory - actually.

But now he was seen in the grim forests at the foot of the Dolomite Alps - The Joker. Like his character, everything about him is inconvenient - even his means of transportation.

 Sorry guys, but this really didn't work for me... Far too much flickering, to the point that it became quite annoying. Also, too much slomo on uninteresting sections of the trail.
Mainly though, I'm wondering what the point of this video was. If you had another rider in blacked out kit as Batman it could have featured a cool bike chase and maybe some kind of storyline. This edit just didn't make much sense to me.

...Also, the Joker is meant to be a crazy, laughing clown. Cheer up Smile

 There is another camera following...I guess you just didn't get the point. You must feel good shitting on others people work.

 Sometimes being different is good. This is not one of those times.

 I like his thinking of being different.

 Pretty meh
ridding straight trails in slow mo...
did not deserve a hardcore soundtrack

Taking themselves a bit too SERIOUSLY (if you'll pardon the pun)

 Totally, i saw nothing DH bike worthy, just smooth root and rock free trails. The XCO UCI riders tackle more difficult terrain that that.

 I'm also not sure on the point, the video made me want to heave. I like mountain biking because it takes me away from mainstream media sh*t. I still viewed it hoping for some senders or something but essentially, its just a guy, with a tacky airbrushed helmet, hitting straight ass boring trails :/

 P.S The branch hitting the goggles wasn't worth a B roll, never mind pinkbikes homepage

 You know, the camera work and editing shows these guys actually have some skill. I mean, the filming was done very well... IMO. However, If you threw in some decent terrain and a rider that looks incredible on camera (not saying this guy can't shred but the film did not highlight his skills)...anyhow, if you did that and perhaps simplified some of the editing (just a little too busy) - you would seriously have something here... Nice work guys

 The camera work and editing is great, especially with all the special effects, but seems like not worth for this kind of project. Too bad you guys wasted your probably 50 hours with production time on this ... It would have been better video if U made it more about riding ..

 Well that was several minutes of my life I can't get back!!!

Is this guy any good on a bike? I couldn't tell as every shot had unnecessary flashing effects and too much slo-mo. Didn't really show any riding or anything worth bothering watching again

 Gosh..you must be a nerd sitting around watching others people work and like shitting on them...horrible !

 @Aus: welcome to the Internet my fellow Pinkbike user, where uploading media opens you up to public criticism, whether that's good or bad.
Atleast I comment on the subject in question, not writing personal insults.

 Nice helmet...

 Cmon it could of been worse, he could of been on an Ellsworth

 I guess if you're touting for work for lame energy drink commercials aimed at fat people who don't ride then this is mission accomplished, maybe that's a bit harsh of me, a lot of non riders would say this was pretty slick, just probably doesn't tick the PB audience's box
  • 7 2
 Well i liked it, you lot just have poor taste Smile
  • 3 2
 Gotta say, i'm sorry, but the riding looked lame, if I played back my rides in Slow motion like that - I would look cool . . . . . and I really ain't cool when I attempt to shred !!! Nice production skills, but it takes more than that to make a watchable edit. Now I sit back and wait for the insults from Aus . . . . . .

 I thought the movie was good. I think you pinkbike dickweeds should loosen up and learn to appreciate other people's creativity. Because that's what makes the world an interesting place.

 oOO Yeah... Shred that XC trail on your triple clamp 8 inch DH rig. Woooo!!!

 Good job! The filmmaker has a lot of potential. I think it would have gotten a better response with a late October release.

 I like bacon sandwiches, I might do a video of me riding through the woods (in slo-mo) dressed as a bacon sandwich

 Nobody should imitate the joker, heath nailed it and it should be left untouched. Poor taste.

 This is exactly why I don't watch mtb videos anymore. Pinkbike your really stretching for content it seems, stick to racing and reviews.

 Did you see Brandon Semenuk's Raw 100 V2?

 this is a total lack of respect to the charachter of the Joker, if a real Joker existed, he would troll the hell out of whoever made this video.
