haha that is mint, i vote pod if someone photosops it to make the rider more visibl dna the colors brighter, but wat a crazy pic eh? that guys got balls.
this pic is from a VOD i while ago but im not saying this shouldn't be POD just pointing it out. lol. i love this photo PROPS. Mad respect to Trials riders out there!
wow HOW?? thats like a 15 ft drop without any suspension!! AMAZING, being able to ride trials like that must take soo much practice and patience, MAJOR PROPS!!
Theres a certain technique when landing in trials (rear tire first kinda thing).. you just need balls and leg strength. Generally speaking, if you can drop 2 feet with perfect form, you can do 10 if you have enough leg strenght + strong enough bike.
i realize there is lots of technique involved and so on but lets not take away from how crazy what he is doing is, however much technique. not disregarding your comment i understand and you know what you are talking about, NONETHELESS it is amazing!
ya no shite because he goes towards the wall pops off of it and land farther then he was before and LANDS it when i saw the VOD i was flipping shite at how insane it was and then the crowd came after he landed topped it off! watch the VOD its so sick
When I first watched this video it took me like two hours because kept replaying everything in it. Then they just tack this on the to the end of the clip. I was like HOLY SHIT.
Holy crap, thats HUGE! It looked massive in the vid, but you really get an idea for the sheer scale of that drop in this sequence. I mean, i'd never have the skill or the balls do that with my 7" of plush, forgiving travel, let alone on a completely rigid trials steed. Danny Maca-SKILL has got the skillz that pay the billz. Official.
If you haven't watched the video, watch it. This guy is unreal. I love how right after, people all go to the edge of the bridge to check if he's okay. Great POD!
He's that good because he lives and breathes it.
When the rest of the WC Carnival was in the park in the centre of Fort William partying on the Saturday evening, we saw him riding around down by the Loch front, 'playing' on the walls of the raised flowerbeds.
Anyone that was at the bottom of the WC DH on the Saturday afternoon will have seen him pull his newest trick. He can land a complete backflip on the flat off what appeared to be about an 80cm kicker with a 10m run up. Awesome!
still amazing.. this guy is unreal.. he's got people checking and looking down at him in a subway station aswell , riding away after he lands a 360 down the stairs.. also in the movie.. still have this one on my hyves account for everybody not riding to check..
This is not a photo. It is a series of frames from a video thats is on youtube and has been photoshoped together. I still think this guy is awesome but i thought that "pod" was PHOTO OF the DAY not video of the day. If you allow videos then it takes away the skill and timing and patience thats required with still photos.
WOW THAT DESERVES EVERY SECOND OF POD IT HAS IN THE DAY. ... hahah hes definetly about to either bail or do something sick on that fence in front of him.
no youre right...i geuss there is a vid to go with this?
this bit is near the end
Generally speaking, if you can drop 2 feet with perfect form, you can do 10 if you have enough leg strenght + strong enough bike.
