yah why has this not got VOD its amazing and great colors too but you need to get some 30 inch bars so it looks like you're compensating for somthing...no but serioiusly wider bars= faster Big Grin

nothing past 28 though or your elbows will be taking out trees

Really nice camera work and editing, it reminded me of a pro film like NWD. Great riding too.

ianscoyne (Jan 19, 2009 at 17:39)

more shots were nice man... couple of the riding shots could have had better angles man... but i would still say worth VOD

cioss (Jan 19, 2009 at 3:20)

sick video for sure.
Great cam, great trails, great music etc.
Props for great riding, but hate this red santa with 66...

tenzodh (Jan 19, 2009 at 9:41)

that v10 with an 888 and good brakes , its a very good bike

fantaman (Jan 19, 2009 at 11:52)

since when does 888's are single crown forks according to you.

tenzodh (Jan 20, 2009 at 11:27)

i said if you put a 888 istead of that 66

boffanator (Jan 20, 2009 at 16:03)

i had a 888 on the bike before but it felt stupid....the 66 balanced it out and gave it better handling and overall better feel.....i would know because i rode it Razz

SpeshAllDay (Jan 19, 2009 at 6:31)

When everbody says "rio" they mean "rio escondido" right. Isn't that Hunter's trail from Seasons. Wow what a transformation from winter to summer. Thats got to be my favorite trail I've never riden.

just out of interest, the jump at about 104secs, wasn't there a pic of a dude doing a superflat table off it that god pod?

[Reply]

sweetfreerider (Jan 19, 2009 at 10:03)

its a good vid but not VOD standard.

terrible camera work. to much zooming out of stuff to the rider, and really wobbly.

had to be said.

NWray (Jan 19, 2009 at 15:11)

agreed bad filming technique to use zoom.....over all good riding on bikes that sure as hell arn't dh bikes, looked more like free ride bikes, just my 2 cents

karlheldt (Jan 19, 2009 at 19:48)

you guys forgot to say "in my opinion"

boffanator (Feb 7, 2009 at 14:24)

and we were enjoying a nice day of riding...if it were serious filing there woulda been cable cams and tripods Razz

KyleYoung (Jan 19, 2009 at 17:44)

nice vid man!
how do you like the single crown on the V10!?
bit scketchy maybe Smile

iamsharpy (Jan 20, 2009 at 7:19)

that's exactly what i was thinking. a bit unbalanced front/rear. would give the bike a steep head angle too.

boffanator (Jan 20, 2009 at 10:31)

nope wrong and wrong...the bike sure has 10 inches of travel and it sags 4 inches giving say 6 inches rear and 7 front....also when these bikes first came out they had a 7 inch manitou dorado....so its balanced and feels better than running 8 inches in the front....or i wouldnt have riden the 66....by the way 66 are amazing

iamsharpy (Jan 25, 2009 at 11:14)

fair comment, i forgot about the fact the v10 was designed to have a fair amount of sag.

boffanator (Jan 25, 2009 at 12:00)

i now own a 08 glory freeride with 66rc3 and all the good stuff Razz

great video, deff vod, riding ans setups we nice to

[Reply]

mtbryder (Jan 19, 2009 at 20:04)

In the beginning your shock was too stiff and your rebound was too responsive for your riding style. but great video and nice 3.

boffanator (Jan 19, 2009 at 21:16)

amazing u could tell....i had the bike setup for hucks not dh....

boffanator (Jan 19, 2009 at 21:18)

and the bike was nearing its death at that time...drivetrain went to shit....brakes were worn...and the shock was wacky.

boffanator (Jan 19, 2009 at 21:18)

how would u define my riding style?

mtbryder (Jan 21, 2009 at 21:19)

No offense but in the video it was a little chattery, but I'm sure if you adjust your shock how I suggested you would be a lot smother and probably a little faster.

mtbryder (Jan 21, 2009 at 21:25)

Sorry, I just watched the video again and you weren't chattery, but I think those adjustments will help.

boffanator (Jan 25, 2009 at 11:59)

not likely...and i dont own that bike anymore....i own an 08 giant glory freeride with 66rc3 avid codes....all the good stuff Razz
