vod
Not for me. Riding was fine and the location was good, but the cinematography and editing weren't quite on par for a VOD.
riding was great, trails looked sick, but the filming and editing doesnt make it a worthy VOD in my opinion
haha i just realized i basically said the same thing as AMBiker

riding was exemplary, but yeah, the filming was modest and the ending was corny and cliche. DO NOT end with a sunset, please.
it wouldve been a great vid if you guys had some sort of a steady cam. ever heard of a tripod before?
plus the variation in riding was notable. great job on combining substantially different styles into one vid.
to be honest, if his video wasnt vod nobody would comment on it like this...it would just be one of the usual edits that we have nothing againgst. although i dont really think its quite good enough for vod...i still believe it is unfair that the people and editor of this vid should recieve this much critcism, they didnt chooso it to be vod themselves so dont have a go at them.
i thought it was going to be a but dissapointing at the start, but the riding was sweet and those trails looked lush im glad it was VOD otherwise i probably would have never seen such a sweet vid
well i dont think it deserves all the really bad critisism and i think most of the people that did critisise it did it before the first minute, which i agree, was pretty poor on the scale of Video Of Day but the rest was amazing and finally a british VOD for a change
schweetcutuk -you see, that's the thing; this video feels like any other video, which renders it equal to an ameteur film and in doing so, it opens bellows of pandora's criticism. as a director, filmographer, photographer, w/e, by posting this, you relinquish an opinion and you expose yourself to open criticism. however the capability of each rider pushes it past the pinnacle of expectation. so yeah, while they may not have chosen this to be VOD, they did chose to have an enslot of opinionated criticism.
Nice vid. But I was massively dissapointed you didn't hit the huge step down at 2:41! Has anyone done it yet? Oh and where is the pump track at the end or is that a secret?
I don't think this should be Vod. there are wayyy better vids out there. If you have not seen the trasition blindside vid go on my profile and look under my favourit vids. Then you will see what a vod looks like...if you don't like onffspring then I don't suggest it...
infact i thought that was good.. i loved the djin bit and think was a sik vid. here i come 1 hundred neg props
Is all of that footage at Still woods? I didn't realise there was that pump track/trails there, or is that someplace else?
yeah that pump track is somewhere else entirely. I just used the footage to buff it out so the song would fit!

BETTER TRAILS???? BETTER TRAILS??????? Mate, those have got to be some of the best trails i have seen! The riding was exemplary guys, just a shame that us normal people cant afford to spend over a grand on a camera. I love that a proper film made by people out riding for fun is VOD, instead of being over produced and over priced. Let the riding qualify it as a VOD, not the aesthetics.

DuDes? I thought that was a tight VOD! sure the camera used wasn't amazing but that's not the point, it's nice having a nice camera but these guys were rippin it up and having fun. It's Freeride in it's purest form!

i think this vod could be a lot better , riding wasnt the best , but those dirt jumps looked allright , but no worthy of a vod!!

The video portion is good, it's the audio, what the hell is this musical f*ggotry my ears were exposed to?
You guys seem to be getting a alot of critcism!
Personally, I loved it, looks like an awesome place to build and have fun, keep the videos coming!

NO WAY IN HELL SHOULD THIS BE VOD. ive been watching a shitload of GOOD videos thinking they should be VOD, and then i see this crap.
sickest vod thats been on their for a while do to the verity of trails and riding style nice vod and awsome trails
great grassroot edit - not all of us can afford HD cameras and high tech editing gear - Nice work guys
Yeah it's Strung Out... and the song is... "Party In the Hills"... the album it's on is a good one. Just saying.
The pacing of this film was excellent. It just went and went and went and then it was over. Great stuff.

enjoyed the vid but seen them ride there and its huge some of the stuff, im glad its VOD as i like it :], good work lads.
i think i was there when you were filming it. i live like sooo close to there and i go basically all and every weekend! its an amazing place to ride.Great video definatly for VOD!
am...... pump track and dirt jumps looked sick tho. the fr and dh had sooo many jumps, maybe some tech or more corners gettin smashed would have given some more variety. fair vid guys, just not v o d
[Reply]
Great stuff.
Could have been better with some de-interlacing, and proper aspect ratios. Once the editor learns how to actually render video better, we will see some more VODs!
