Something wrong with awesome gear? I bike and ski in EB gear because it's sick stuff and I was wearing EB in this edit as well. People are going to start associating the Eddie Bauer name, with sick gear if they don't already.
It was all in fun and games. We all know Eddie Bauer makes quality stuff, especially those who live in the NW. Your defiantly bringing a bit of class to the MTB world in the Eddie Bauer gear for sure. I have mad respect for you man. Meant no disrespect.
Great video, good track. I like hearing rock on bike videos just as much as the next guy, but sometimes when you have a banger edit like this you just need a banger song to go with it.
What's wrong Pinkbike, no haters for using slo-mo on li'l scrubs?
(the slo-mo on that massive drop to step-up, however, is totally deserved… it's one thing to pin that drop, but to then roll straight into a big step-up takes some serious skill)
It's a tough call. I mean we went back and forth on it, and in the end decided to because there was a shot I thought was pretty sick from a previous desert edit I filmed that no one really caught. It was a scrub and even small it was super tricky but they are usually so quick that you miss it. So we figured we would do a slo mooooo on this one.
An edit can be rated by its putting-the-goggles-on shot alone. This is a 10/10. Epic shot. The jump cuts synched to the heavy beat, the mild tracking rotation around the subject, the slow motion - it's all there. In this case, the goggle shot was masterfully sequenced directly out of a classic pushing-the-bike-up-the-hill scene. It was a beautiful choice. The subject ascends through rugged, untamed grass and oversized ferns. As he penetrates the thick, unpruned coniferous grove, the viewer is brought along on what is sure to be an exclusive, secret, and likely wild, mountain biking experience. And then, at last, the pay-off. The our brave protagonist dons his eye protection. The director knows what he's got: pure gold. And the viewer knows what lies ahead will likely threaten our hero's greatest and most valuable sense: his vision.
If you don't like the tunes put your computer on mute. Then follow that by putting your opinions on mute because no one gives a rats ass what you think.
