Not VOD worthy, other than a sick drift and good quality film and music this video wasnt good at all. It had no fancy riding that should be considered in VOD movies. I know it might seem harsh but the riding in this movie was nothing special.

are you stupid i liked it all but those were two things dat stuck out too me i bet many could agree and these guys probley put alot of work into dis and are just havin a good time and your bashin it so STFU

thanks everybody for beaking all our hard work and effort! Not trying to be and A-hole but i challenge everyone who hates on this to go out and make a better quality vid. It seems that all the haters have very limited knowlege on how to make a quality video. All we did is go out and ride and make a video and have fun, thats what its all about, it seems like many people are forgeting that thats what keeps this sport moving forard.

I do agree with the fact that the quality is good and the music and such does flow well with the video. I AM NOT SAYING THAT IT WAS NOT A GOOD JOB. I do think the riding in the video is not good and bores most people.

it was a good camera and a nice helmet.
thats pretty much what gave this VOD.
no special riding, no special trails, no special editing.

where? riding?
first off i would have picked a more interesting trail.
other than that..... i'd like to see something in a VOD that i cant do, and i look up to.

this KillafodaSkrilla69 dude needs to learn that VOD doesnt have Pro's all the time. Me and the guy up above have friends that made VOD and they arent pros they just had a video that was good riding.

call it what ever yo want boy vod doesnt riding dat has to be better den dis guys ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

i never said that. i sad its what interests me.
this video just makes me want to sleep.
i think anyone can ride down a hill like he did
- - 2
this vide had no talent what so ever. It had maybe a 3 foot drop and a good drift. It seems apparent that this video puts people to sleep and it may not be because the fact that its 1:11 in the morning here but the fact that the riding is very simple.

Riding bikes is the same no matter what... I think "killafodaskrilla69" needs to read a dictionary before his next mountain bike adventure. Sure, theres better vids out there... with probably more technical riding, but I mean... the riding should be appreciated no matter the aspect or difficulty. Im sure with the right editing and music I might get VOD riding on a flat street, doing nothing.
- - 1
haha, the point i was trying to make is that VOD shouldnt have been decided on music and video quality as "killafodaskrilla69" said. I think that some of VOD should be on riding and having fun, if it doesnt have that it shouldnt be VOD but the riding should also be good enough to deserrve it the one with the double road gap was SICK that could have been no music and ok quality and still make VOD

coralcorn wtf are you talking about? i never said it had to be pro's all the time i was backing the video up...

lol killa you really are a dick. its peoples own opinions so before you get on your high horse go and learn some english.
- + 0
LOL all of you are idiots, he may suck at english but you guys suck at reading simple mistakes. hes saying that the whole point of vod is having fun and riding and how it shouldnt always have to be about big hits that no one can do. Cuz I bet anything that it evens out to be about 1:1 ratio of Big hits to easy riding but good quality. Coral corn; it wasn't only based on quality cuz that guy is having fun riding too isnt he??? GP though?
Porkus, yoour just a stupid scrode.

Nice vid, (At the 70 sec mark going into the gully G-out section a few years back), I led a train of Romo Schnef and Hall, as we all jumped over a family of four that were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Haha

I am going to get destroyed for this but. . .
This is why Canada is not all over the world of DH cause you guys are always riding trails like this. You probably have the most people in your country that acctaully ride mountian bikes some of the best bike parks and 2 world cups this year. Yet you only have a small number of riders on the top step. Whats going on CANADA!!??

Nice, Knox is one of my fave places to ride, once spring rolls around again I hope to meet up with you and shred that place. Oh and you're on a Wilson right? How are you liking it?

we get zero funding from our government for DH yet we have the most undeveloped talent and terrain.

It was pretty damn boring, over use of slow motion, and in some sections i was unsure whether it was slow mo or not as the ridin was so repetetive and boring.
As a lot of others have said, get somethin more exciting into the trail, bit more speed etc.
Props none the less on gettin VOD check the comments you get and work on them, i'm sure you could impress again and roll back with another VOD

would have been so much better if you filmed a more interesting trail. the filming/editing was sweet though.
- + 3
to superreal, there's definately more people (by number)that ride DH in the states than in canada. they have about 9 times our population...
- + 2
nice filming and editing, but the rider needs to go three times as fast and get on a hardtail or XC bike for those trails. The DH sled makes the rider look lame lame lame on the smooth, unsteep trail and 3' drops.

"we get zero funding from our government for DH yet we have the most undeveloped talent and terrain." We have no funding and it illegal to use the forests for mtbing, but we still have Ben Ried

its illegal here too... we started the whole riding bikes down mountains really fast thing. so what if some guy from your country goes a few seconds faster than someone from ours? your a tool
- + 1
ooohhhhhh dont get your knickers in a twist, for the country who "invented it" you'd think they'd have better riders than somewhere as flat as kate moss. Its illegal, whistler?

i was actually very disappointed by this video, it was very mediocre. only thing that's good is the camera work.
- + 2
Ok, it was a good video. I'm not nocking the rider at all. It was pretty good editing as well, although slo mo was a little over used.
The only reason I think it wasn't a great VOD is because of the location. Too boring. That bike used about half of its travel I would have thought. Looked like somthing that would be quicker on a hard tail just because of the pedaling!
But it was a sweet video.
- + 2
props to the guy who filmed it well put together good editing and chilled out tunes... what the guy was riding was lame... looked pretty much like a pedally bit of single track a small double (if you can call it that) and a small drop of a rock...
don't think i can call this vod... can can't believe that's all that's there to ride in the area you clearly have some sick mountain to build on how about some sick gnarly "DH" course in your next vid...eh

this is redictulous as far as im concerened... all these people have nothing better to do than bash someone who put some time and effort into making a video?!?!?! like holy f*ck boys are any of your videos on vod? i think not... give them a break... ya the trail was kinda boring but the editing was very good... but do you really go full out, pushing your limits every second your on your bike? sometimes its just nice to pin it down a rookie trail isn't it? so stop bitching and try riding and filming if you think you can do bettter!!!!!!!!!!!!

yah canada has alot of good trails but you are not taking advantage of them here. next time you get some actual sick shit before makin a video good try at least getting vod and being smooth thoug.
- + 0
too bad he definitely did not need a wilson to ride those trails,not like that anyway,I think my proflex might of handled that, and with a lot more speed. Good vid, but what is the point of having such a sick, big-hit bike, if your not even going to come close to using it properly, he was'nt carrying nearly as much speed as he could of been.Why would'nt you try harder if your making a video.?
- + 0
was his first ride on the trail that day and first day on the bike if that means anything, trust me we usually go a lot harder, at postill, silverstar, whistler etc. 
-that's sucks and boring...

good filimg and editing, but the riding was boring and that was a huge waste of a world cup in my opinion.

well filmed but there wasnt much action involved. props to the camera guy. that guys skidd was pretty cool...

and you could see his rear wheel locking up. a cutty is a quick change of direction involving no brakes and a bit of drift..correct me if im wrong
