maybe a little too slow motion for me, but they still ripped!

Danny-P (Jan 29, 2013 at 16:38)

yeah man I nearly stopped watching it if I'm honest.

104

boogaloo77 (Jan 29, 2013 at 16:40)

me too, but they were killin it so i had to keep watchin it

74

Danny-P (Jan 29, 2013 at 16:59)

So well shot, the framing of each shot is so nice. The use of natural light is spot on as well and of course the riding is awesome. The Slow-mo just kills the mood after 3rd or 4th shot. ah well

foghorn1 (Jan 29, 2013 at 17:49)

If it's full of slomo I'm not even watching. I'm so over slo mo. Thanks for the warning!

74

pierszdan (Jan 29, 2013 at 17:50)

There were a total of 10 full speed shots. Slow-mo overkill.

53

boogaloo77 (Jan 29, 2013 at 18:00)

definitly! but you cant deny that them two shred

63

bobsten (Jan 29, 2013 at 19:07)

Icremin77, thank you. I've never skipped through a Kovarik video. There's always a first I guess.

21

boogaloo77 (Jan 29, 2013 at 19:22)

same here, i did still watch it, but it woulda been better at full speed. they took like two minutes of riding, and stretched it into four and change...

51

JRohlik (Jan 29, 2013 at 19:29)

At least all the slow-mo was shot on a nice lens... Not some shit gopro slow-mo. The amount of detail shown is amazing, ie, the dirt roosting from the middle of his front tire at 2:59. Music wasn't too bad for an original mix. Overall I enjoyed it. Not in my Faves, but a good flick none the less!

paulclarke (Jan 29, 2013 at 20:42)

I thought it was cool, he did say it was slo mo to show how their bodies move with the bikes. Wicked dudes!

rockin-itis (Jan 30, 2013 at 19:37)

Awesome. Love watching suspension in slo-mo. Great riders, great trail.

30

rhys-the-rider (Jan 30, 2013 at 20:45)

still awesome. but kovarik is just one of those guys that needs to be watched at normal speed to blow your mind.

Jimmy0 FL (Jan 29, 2013 at 16:31)

my girlfriend can hardly ride down the street. sweet vid guys

391

scott-townes FL (Jan 29, 2013 at 16:49)

My girlfriend is a figment of my dirty imagination. That was a sick vid. She's a rippa

192

moodgedog (Jan 29, 2013 at 19:40)

Yep...I warned you lot about heaps of Slomo..
When i stop frothing on the new camera ill get back to filming normal speed again. It's only the 4th time ive used it and i wanted to see Chris's calves wobble.

Regardless, hope y'all liked it.

40

lexdamis (Jan 29, 2013 at 20:25)

Hell Yeah!!! that was so BAD ASS...Slo Mo was SWEET..don't ever mind if it is done well..Great song for vid..and it is so seldom to see a girl RIP!!! in a vid..Excellent work!!!!..Thanks you for that!!!

30

moodgedog (Jan 29, 2013 at 20:29)

Cheers lexdamis, greatly appreciated.

10

highstreet (Jan 30, 2013 at 2:44)

What camera are you using?

20

hillatoppa (Jan 30, 2013 at 12:34)

Some killer shots here dude! Ignore all the haters jumpin' on the 'we hate slo-mo' bandwagon... When it's done well, there's nothing that beats it

10

moodgedog (Jan 30, 2013 at 15:22)

Thanks hillatoppa and highstreet, it's a Sony FS700. Cheers

10

MattErhardt (Jan 31, 2013 at 12:37)

This was awesome! I personally enjoyed the slowmo! Also sick kits!

100

gwarior321 (Jan 29, 2013 at 21:34)

blah blah blah .. yall are crazy ! you do realize with out all that slow mo you woulda never even been able to really watch either of them right ? & that the video wouldve been like 18 seconds long ...

112

casums (Jan 29, 2013 at 17:57)

damn... she's HELLA FAST!!

910

foshizz (Jan 29, 2013 at 18:32)

Don't ever use that word again

81

casums (Jan 29, 2013 at 23:40)

Sorry your not where I'm from. Damn your acting like I'm saying "swag" or
"yolo"

wolfebar (Jan 30, 2013 at 1:15)

how can a guy, whos name is foshizz tell people what to say?

93

ibis09 (Jan 29, 2013 at 18:59)

Hope to see more of slow mo video like this, so we can see how A-1 athletes do their stuff around their bikes.

74

WAKIdesigns (Jan 30, 2013 at 2:18)

Chris Kovarik in Slow-mo? What a depravation! Heresy, blasphemy, utter impiety!

Thy shall not show our god of Aggro in ways toning down his power to desintegrate trail features. When Chris comes into a burm, the whole mountain moves! If he went to ride on a Mount Rainier, the entire North West would cease to exist!

51

g-man27 (Jan 29, 2013 at 17:35)

That was sick. You could really see the different riding styles and areas where Chris carries more speed with the slow mo. Killer video!

41

bigwheels29er (Jan 29, 2013 at 17:23)

The riding was awesome, and the slow mo wasn't that bad, but the music killed it for me. I had to watch the second half of it on mute!

60

Patsplit (Jan 29, 2013 at 18:29)

Once the "bass dropped" at 1:09 MUUUUTEE! So many tracks start out great and then have to turn into Dubstep Sh1te.

40

mosierman (Jan 29, 2013 at 19:07)

ahhh! No more dubstep please.

30

Azamac (Jan 29, 2013 at 23:12)

slow mo can be gay but i love watching sweet sweet big bike travel getting a work out. oh and CK and CB are fucking bosses!! nice edit dude

10

ltrumpore (Jan 31, 2013 at 18:38)

So tired of 3-4 min vids with 1 min 'intros.' barely made it past the slow-mo synchronized goggle scene. And that's the problem, because the shots and riding are otherwise top notch. Can we make riding the new intro in 2013? I've seen enough slow-mo time lapse clouds roost getting dressed chairlift shots to last at least a full season.

40

Hermit185 (Jan 29, 2013 at 16:29)

easily the most entertaining rider of all time.

52

High-Flying-Roller (Jan 29, 2013 at 16:44)

This has got to be in the top vids of the year 2013 everything was just wix!

20

djfloorfiller74 (Jan 29, 2013 at 17:04)

sick sick riding....forsure one of my alltime fav. riders to watch...even back in NWD 1 his riding style is banger forsure!!!!

30

big-G-84 (Jan 29, 2013 at 17:43)

Really wanna see these two back on the world cup circuit, would be sick.

53

downsouthrider (Jan 29, 2013 at 18:11)

is it just me or does the slow mo take away from Kovarik's style? he is so fast, it's a shame to watch him in slow mo...still awesome. thanks for warning us though!

10

patchesuk (Jan 31, 2013 at 4:07)

Wasn't quite sure at first what it was about this video... although now I think it's the lighting.... that really just got me very very excited about riding this summer! - and that's coming from a skier!

10

JoseMPM (Feb 1, 2013 at 10:13)

A bit too much slow motion for my taste, particularly since I've been sort of addicted for a couple of months the Karver Summer Of Summit episode in which he absolutely killed it. But cool nonetheless.

41

konakid8 (Jan 29, 2013 at 17:00)

stopped at 2:53, waaay to effin slow!!

20

moodgedog (Jan 29, 2013 at 22:33)

huh... u didnt make it to 2:57 to watch Chris' leg flex?.... sheesh

40

Loucas (Jan 29, 2013 at 17:16)

Ladies first

10

jfyfe (Jan 29, 2013 at 19:24)

It seems like every team is dropping marzocchi this year. Are any teams still running them? I don't want to see that company tank because they're still making good forks.

10

rbka (Jan 30, 2013 at 6:05)

Clare's such an awesome rider. I love seeing footage of her! & him! I hope they race the rest of the nationals/Victoria series. & cheeky ending... hahaha.

20

slidways (Jan 30, 2013 at 6:45)

last time I saw these two they were still running the 888, when did they switch to fox....

20

CookiemonsterMan (Jan 30, 2013 at 18:41)

wow I loved that. I was okay with the slow-mo actually. defiantly a POD extremely soon, thumbs up if you agree

(y)

cliff-huckstable (Jan 29, 2013 at 16:32)

Faved before watching.

31

jkoprider11 (Jan 29, 2013 at 16:32)

awesome sauce on them cool beans, so funny she kept throwing dirt at him.

30

Kinsey (Jan 29, 2013 at 16:34)

Im feeeling it!

41

superbikes (Jan 29, 2013 at 16:55)

Well filmed 10/10

20

boomerbaird (Jan 29, 2013 at 17:35)

Claire is fast as hell! I always watch all these videos in mute...

10

Davidsym (Jan 29, 2013 at 18:48)

if you look at mr kovarik's calf at 2:57 when he hits bumps his leg flexs and contracts. kovarik is a beast

10

dv8416 (Jan 30, 2013 at 10:06)

I think everyone deserves a "slow motion walk" film...just like in Superbad

10

bok-CZ FL (Jan 31, 2013 at 8:02)

you simply have to use slomo for Chris otherwise he moves faster than your eyes can catch

10

dontfeelcold (Jan 31, 2013 at 14:10)

Hasn't anyone seen the Dave Chappelle episode where he shows how everything is cooler in slow motion?

10

extention (Jan 29, 2013 at 16:51)

CK is always on it. Awesome style

10

BDKR (Jan 29, 2013 at 17:47)

There is nothing cooler then seeing girls rip! NOTHING!!!!

181

humoroususername (Jan 29, 2013 at 18:01)

I dunno man, seeing girls naked is pretty cool. You should look it up, there are probably some pictures on the internet.

26

BDKR (Jan 30, 2013 at 5:12) (Below Threshold)

LOL.... Yeah, I've seen plenty of girls naked. Slept with a good number of them too. After a couple of b1tch3s, I find that having one that does the same things you do is better then the super model with a world that revolves around shopping, her hair, and her nails.

21

swampdog (Jan 30, 2013 at 2:45)

Yeah I had to skip through most of it. Can't handle all that slow motion.

11

karaknic (Jan 30, 2013 at 4:45)

I counted just over 30 seconds of normal speed footage... overkill to the max!

10

brooce (Jan 30, 2013 at 4:51)

Has anybody else felt the smell of SUMMER?

20

M9er (Jan 30, 2013 at 7:21)

Carbon m9???

Bcrider36 (Jan 30, 2013 at 17:23)

thats what I was thinking

10

SwintOrSlude (Jan 30, 2013 at 8:52)

I want the bike park to open again sooo bad

10

jtaylor (Jan 30, 2013 at 10:52)

Is that a rock smashing into her front wheel at the end??

10

ericj11697 (Jan 30, 2013 at 17:10)

I honestly loved the slow mo.

10

bogey FL (Jan 30, 2013 at 20:24)

Thaaaaaaat waaaaaas boooooooooriiiiiiing.

indianJoe (Jan 29, 2013 at 20:31)

kovarik racing logo looks like manny pacquiao logo. lol

faritafilms (Jan 29, 2013 at 22:24)

Dust for days

12

cameronb3321 (Jan 30, 2013 at 1:06)

The video actually consists of only 20 seconds of filming, stretched out to 4 minutes of slomo
