 How nice can a VOD be?? i think this is max Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin

 Is it fair to have company videos as VOD's?
HEAR ME OUT
This website is a medium for riders to showcase their talent, not neccesarily for companies to get extra (and FREE) marketing on a video that is on their websites... All I'm saying is that there are plenty of excellent videos by riders for riders that dont have the bigger budgets that these do... all I'm saying.
However, it is a sick video, just dont think it should be VOD, as VOD to many is a riders video, not a company from china.
  • + 1
 But it makes the riders with not as big as budget try even harder to get VOD.
  • + 2
 i could watch that one a few more times
  • + 6
 Why did it have to end!? Frown
  • + 3
 can you say fast?
  • + 2
 YOU are completely right I'm 100% with you.eve is a amazing vid.should not be VOD.There are tons of great home made vids that SHOULD BE VOD.
  • + 6
 that slow motion was insanneee Eek

 VOD'S from medium riders to showcase their talents. thats sounds like clipaddicts.com

 So sweet to have such a kool VOD on my birthday!!!
  • + 1
 Im not a big fan of the kona supreme, but this guy makes it look good Smile
  • + 2
 Such a sick video, nice to see a new design. Did anyone else see the dented rim at 1:50 Razz
  • + 1
 WOW, 1:05*** ... not 1:50.
  • + 1
 omg
  • + 1
 omg omg omg.

 don't get me wrong this video is great, but i think it is over edited, to be honest i would rather see him ripping it at normal speed not slow motion, the slow motion is a cool effect if it isn't used to much, it has definately been overused in this video
  • + 3
 Video of the YEAR!
  • + 1
 why hasnt this been vod? best advertisement ive ever watched.... this should have been shown during the supper bowl!!!
  • + 2
 this makes me want to save up $6K and buy this instead of college.

 hmmm don't see anyone making fun of konas in this vid? a first for pinkbike....

 bet I just jizzed in my pants watching this vid.... I won.
  • + 1
 i have had a couple of konas haha Razz nothing like the new operator though Smile
  • - 2
 Yeah its nothing like the Stab with a new marketing campaign or anything. REVOLUTIONARY!!
  • + 7
 Great video but i thought it was to show off the kona at work?
Only see the rear end twice and its devouring its travel like a fat guy at a pie eating comp, saw more of the Boxxers. I have owned a stab and its a great bike, but this video really doesnt do it any favours
  • + 1
 lol yeah, in every shot of the shock it was just blowing through the travel.
  • + 1
 I Have To Say, This Is Probably One Of The Only Videos I've Seen That Really Uses The Brands Rider To Promote There Product, Like It Showcases Joe's Talent Aswell As The Supreme Operators Capabilities !
  • + 1
 somebody likes capital letters...
  • + 3
 i kept watching the black screen for thirty seconds after it was over... my god that was awesome
  • + 1
 Wow, what a VOD, this video is not another cut of the same old same old. Blown away by how good it is. Well done and some the riding was every bit as good as the cinematography.
  • + 1
 I agree with parkerrider comment. It is cool to see VOD's that are not shot by proffesionals, but this video was sick so it is cool with me. Check out clipaddicts.com it might be what you are talking about.
  • + 3
 They dont call him 'The only man to make a Kona look good' for no reason....
  • + 1
 i thought joe smith rode for Nukeproof?
  • + 1
 ,Dude is on fire on Can open my buddy broke two frames so carbon front version should solve it and make a great affordable value ,like th fact you can purchase frame only version.
