Why is that VOD aha, don't wanna be unappreciative and this isnt a bad edit but the riding in my opinion was pretty tame for a VOD?

Yes the riding seems tame, but for one the setting is very unique and two if you look at photos from the shoot, the transitions appear to be extremely awkward to ride, not mentioning throwing tricks on. Just my 2 cents

Not every video has to be completely gnarly shit. Its nice to have some relatable content once in awhile...And this spot looks sick!

CalWootton (Dec 19, 2012 at 8:29)

So true Fergus, I agree, I've submitted for VOD many times, but this gets it?

i liked it! maybe the riding was a bit tame but it was still a pretty gnarly vid. those surfaces were so slippery that i am surprised he landed what he did...that 180 rollback was pretty sketch. it may not have been totally shredding the gnar on some huge mountain or some huge line of DJ's it was just a unique video with a good friendly vibe to it.

You have to submit for VOD?

shoprat (Dec 19, 2012 at 10:17)

It's VOD because really, who doesn't want to ride their bike in a water park? haha.

nwatkins (Dec 19, 2012 at 12:48)

This video is about people having fun with their bikes riding something new. Can't we just appreciate that?

pierszdan (Dec 19, 2012 at 13:53)

You dont submit a video to be VOD. Pinkbike moderators pick the POD and VOD each day from a selection that have come to their attention.

ferguswalker (Dec 19, 2012 at 14:27)

Oh yeah I totally appreciate that, It takes vision to see stuff like this and to think its rideable but I just mean that it wasn't something that made my bottom jaw hit the keyboard as most VOD's do Smile

but hey it made me go out and ride so it served an important purpose!!!

Things like this always seem such a good idea but then once its drained its pretty technical, hard to link anything, and the features don't really work.

dannyboi (Dec 19, 2012 at 18:16)

i think its a awesome vid!
its all about having fun. enjoying with your mates
enjoy bike riding, living the dream.
isnt that why we all ride bikes?
sometimes people forget we ride bikes because we enjoy it.
it gives us exitment. love for a sport and heaps of other things.
its not just a sport or a thing u do.
for some its a job. a lifestyle. and you should always repsect that. this is a awesome vod. if i must say so myself!
so get on your bike and ride a water park! boom!!! living the dream! xD

Another video from the home page, user submitted videos will be rarely VOD

liammullany (Dec 19, 2012 at 21:40)

User-submitted content is on the homepage all the time. It's up to you to put something together. Make some magic... Trevor.

I give them credit for finding the unique terrain to ride, but I think had they not tried to clean-up, ride and film all at once the caliber of the riding would have been better. GIve those 3 riders a day or two and then film...you'd come up with more burly/tech lines...this seemed pretty tame for a VOD.

bikerguy222 (Dec 19, 2012 at 16:16)

Why must people always hate on this website... They're just kickin it with some buddies and making some sketchy/rad lines at a waterpark! They make the stuff they're doing look easy.

Guys stop complaining that this got VOD. Hauck, Chase, and GR are legends of the sport so shut up.

Matt-W (Dec 19, 2012 at 16:04)

>implying famous riders automatically make a great video.

nope.

IT WAS SUPER FUN TO RIDE BUT SUPER SLIPPERY. THE ENTIRE TRACK WAS ICY SLIM. Probably should have showed that better.
