 @Kirky86: Same thing as a turndown?
  • 17 0
 they are certainly more "tweaked" but i like semenuk's dangle-foot instead of the clipped in wrapped approach here. subjective i suppose!
  • 18 0
 For sure. I thought they were euro tables in BMX. And no, i still can't do a proper one.
  • 1 0
 @MikeyMT: I think Gully and Brandon would like a word with you. But Cody definitely has some great style.
  • 2 0
 I agree with your point but the table you're referring to is more of a Eurotable or Downtable like Kirky86 said. An invert looks much different than this, the lowers of the fork are usually touching the shoulder/forearm and the bike does not face the lander. terminology can be cryptic and confusing haha Smile

 The best table is unattended and laden with food. Not saying I know first hand but...

 Watched the video twice, there were exactly zero tables in it. Sick clip though, and there's a nice euro in there...

 Is it possible to just do a 360 rotation, on a horizontal axis, like a football? He just needs to do that.
  • 3 0
 @Kirky86: that’s a euro table.

And in regards to that hot take, Semenuks are definitely flatter.

 @MikeyMT: yeah that is a euro, and if that's the example your using then yes I like Cody Kelly's euro tables better. Brandon Semenuk is probably better known for his inward tables
  • 1 0
 @nickgarrison: different continents, slightly different names - but yes, i have heard the Euro reference before too. We can all agree though - that an inverted table is one in which the bike ends up looking upside down, or, inverted.
  • 1 0
 @Kirky86: yeah, for me, an invert is basically a table but the bars aren’t turned and that front tire better be buzzin shoulder

 I cannot get enough of those artificial hub sounds! Please post up a raw edit from these shoots. Your style is too good to chop up like a cheap steak.
  • 7 0
 @scott-townes: The only artificial hub noises are on the slo-mo/drone shots... The rest are legit and even the two I mentioned there are noises my hub made in the filming process. It’s a DT ratchet system that I run fairly dry to enhance the noise
  • 4 1
 @kelleymtb: I know but still post up the raw shots! It looks like you were shredding down ski team/red bull trail and a few other classics. I NEEEEEEED TO SEEEEEEE!

 @kelleymtb: if there is anything I’ve learned watching u ride, it’s that everything is smoother/faster on 1 wheel!!
And you need a raise!$!$

 @kelleymtb: so we call anything on rear wheel “Codee” it!
Like when u run into some old dinasour at the bike park. He about 70 and just rips. Style a lil stiff like he got a bad back, that’s called “Old Doggin” it!
Not to be confused w “raw doggin”.

 "Cody Kelley rails your neighbor's 8 year old's bike with training wheels and tassels."

"Cody Kelley rails the new Specialized Unicycle."

"Cody Kelley rieles el nuevo Low Rider Specialized."

"Cody Kelley rails a dead fish."

Serious, all of these I'd believe and be equally amazed by.

 You still have time to rephrase "Cody Kelley rails a dead fish."

 The drone footage. Sick. The on trail footage. Makes me feel sick. What's with the overly close up moving viewpoint shit. Cant see the trail or the bike and editing gave me a headache. What a waste of rider and location.

 Haha just trying to save some of that front tire tread for the berms!

 I have a video clip in my head where his hair gets cut and he suddenly is casing jumps, blowing corners, not bringing his whips back, and looping out when trying manuals.

 Man I'm tired of these kinds of edits. Super fast shots and hand held so you dont see anything.
  • 14 3
 Sorry you don’t like it man. When you only have one day to film, hand held is the best way to get it done. Cheers

 A bit of it was too Blair witch project for me. I miss old pulled back videos where you can actually see what the rider does without the camera zooming around and shaking...

 @kelleymtb: EVO or normal Stumpy as a second bike to big enduro bike? Does the pep of the Stumpjumper win or the awesome geometry of the EVO?
  • 7 0
 @heatproofgenie: The normal Stumpy has pre awesome geo as well honestly. I have it in the low setting and my head angle is 64.5° on a 130mm I couldn’t ask for much more. But your question comes down to what you are wanting the second bike for... This is a full on trail bike; lightweight, agile, great climber, etc. where the Evo is a all mountain bike and has all the same attributes I mentioned above just with a little more travel and weight so doesn’t climb quite as well, but can handle a bit more while descending
  • 1 0
 @kelleymtb: Thanks for the reply and impressions. More or less what I surmised but good to hear it's not holding you back at all.

By chance do you know if the SWAT bladder from the Evo fits in the standard Stumpy?
  • 1 0
 amazing riding from cody (as always), but he could have made a tricycle look good on that trail. i think i counted one root. how does this edit show us what the new stumpy can do?
  • 1 0
 Appreciate it man, all the cuts are so fast on this “short-ish” edit that it’s hard to tell, but I’m riding through so pretty proper terrain at times. Yes there quite a bit of flow trail in there too, but it’s about a 60/40 split

 I really want to like this video but other than 2 or 3 awesome shots the rest was a zoomed in blur or slow motion. Makes it hard to actually tell how awesome the riding is.
