So sick, I loved it, those trails look fun, where at? VOD
nice idea, must have taken a while to film that-moving the drum kit and edit it, good riding,trail looks awsome!
HAHA
I laughted so hard
Amazing idea ;-) When he putted his earphones off and drummer disappeared I was like :O Sick vid. Really creative
just go flat out at that corner, make it look cool an plz dont hit the expensive drum kit...no pressure.
oh my f*cking god, that is perfectly describing what goes on in my head when i ride! nice job, Super Original!!!!!!!!!!!!
i love it
at 1st i was like wtf is a drummer doing out there but then i got the idea
its great
definately deserves vod not only for rider but for creativity and the great editing! sick

that trail looks sick, and i really like the white stripes kinda thing you had with the drums allover the place . great idea , but the video of the drums didnt match up to the sounds at all, still sick idea

Yeah we hauled that kit around for 6 hours.
Hard work man. Trails are in Sydney Australia but I'm sworn to secrecy on exact location.
Sorry.

Sorry.
Did you not know that all the trails in Australia have drum kits littered everywhere! No need to haul drums around!!!
I thought that you cut it from blue box or something;] You showed that the easiest solutions always wins;D
ausie drum and bass is amazing, i wonder how this would be with a bass going at it next to the drummer. i have only one comment. is the actual drumming on a loop? becuase i heard an very faint phrase said a few times and it was the same each time. the first time i hear it is around 21-22 secconds then agian at 35-36 secconds.
Such an original idea - the riding and the trails were sweet as well! Your next project should be a whole band on the trails.....
A for amazing effort i love seeing people who actually put effort into filming, instead of just shot after shot of the same thing. very creative, well shot, and awesome riding. good job man
Cheers mate. He snuck that one hander in and we didn't notice it till we went to edit.
HA.
We didn't want it to be a tricks type of vid. More just smooth riding.

This was one cool clip!! Very creative, it was like watching a film and not your average short clip, added life to the film, cool trails, cool goggles! And totally all around nice to watch.

So smooth riding and such a flowy Trail.
Riding and Editing was awesome.
And a very good idea to put that drummer in.
One of the best Fr/DH clips ever, more like watching a Film than a video clip!

the drums was the best part of the vod the trial looked liked like a blast to ride but the drummer definitely made the video
[Reply]
i remember reading an article in a mountain bike magazine where some guys stumbled upon those exact trails. great vod, very original
Super cool VOD. That drummer sounds great. I was completely expecting that at the end they'd switch, and the drummer would go off on the bike.
[Reply]
awe-some! i am actually full of awe.
The nerdy side of me is saying that the camera was real good.
Great video.

Okay - VERY different. Love the point of difference from the usual (albeit bad ass) stuff. Simple, slick and let's face it - we all ride to our own soundtracks so it really resonated. AAA++!
the drummer in the video isn't playing the same as the sound track !!
neg prop me if it makes you feel better . buts its true. look for yourself

the one hander over that gap was SO unnecessary. totally ruined a completely trickless video, until you do a one hander. great job on killing it.

Original. Buttery smooth riding. And im extremely jealous of that lush area you get to ride. and the drummer theme was freaking brilliant. Mass props mate.
