I dont see why soooo many folk hate vids like this. Me, personally, i kinda like them. Sums up a normal days riding, for the folk who are trying to progress at their own pace...and having a laugh with it. I dont need fast huge drops or stair sets to get me up and out on ma bike.(though they are quite enjoyable)...A VOD is a VOD..no matter what the riding ability in it, so long as they are riding i say!

Another day of putting "S" in Shit. Every trick was done "fly-out" style. Grow some nuts, take them off of real jumps, use landings. This video sucked!
The music was more than lame to start, the description says "double whips", and I didn't see a single one. Just one half assed attempt at a very small step-up to mushy dirt flat landing. Oh yeah, and the editing was horrible. Anyone can use windows movie maker!

Good video, well more like ok. not VOD worthy, but the kid has a little bit of skill. Maybe don't do flyouts and it would be a lot better.
Too many bus drivers. He's not actually doing barspins. There is a difference between the two.

Too many barspins! WOW. Nice riding, but repetitive. How was he doing fake barspins? Is it because he was spining them with the direction of the 360 or something?

Just so you know guys, this vid is not too serious. The guy killing it with black frame is one of the best riders in sweden, check him out here. Killing t-whips on 8 meter gaps, and truckdrivers on 5 meters, so don´t think we are noobs just because we wanted to goof around.

Erm, You call this video being noobs? I quit now. Lol All we were saying is it's too repetive. Not critizing the video, but rather the fact that it is VOD. No doubt you guys are awesome riders though!

Agree with thedirtrag. Who is this streetdude? I haven't seen anything on his profile what could give a reason for this arrogance.

I think streetdude and suicide are both right. It's not that you guys don't have any skills. You clearly do. It's just that the description is misleading, it wasn't well edited, and it was very very repetitive. Fly outs kinda don't count. It's just a sort of unwritten rule. Anyone can throw down on a short step up, or flying out onto the deck of a ramp. I have no problem with it, guilty as charged, but the cookie cutter effect is definitely in place here. It is just another video exactly like the last one I just watched. I liked the video, but I've seen 12 more just like it in the time I woke up to now.

But i think that´s the great thing. This just sums up your everyday shredd, you don´t go and kill at the big jumps every day, sometimes you want to stick around, have fun with your friend and try some new stuff. That´s why i belive it got VOD, everyone can relate to this vid at some level, and with some sweet riding you can get a VOD.
And what the hell do you mean with misleading description? Everything there is in this video dude, check out the whole vid.
And as you also can read under the vid, i stated that i didn´t think this deserved VOD, but anyway stoaked as hell that it got VOD.
I checked your video out, you guys were only doing tricks on flyouts, why didn´t i see any truckdrivers or double whips there?

I wasn't putting the video down at all. Just like suicide stated. Tired of the same video over and over again from different kids. When it comes down to it, all that really matters is that you had a fun time riding and making the video. Plus, as all of you know I have been saying all a long that THIS VIDEO is the type that should be VOD.. I'm growing tired of seeing nothing but big production/expensive videos that are made with editing software that no kid could ever afford. The VOD's should spotlight the average rider. I think that would give something back to the riders. If all I want to see are top pros and the nuttiest tricks, I can go down to any local bike shop and pick up some DvD's and magazines.
So don't take what I said above in the wrong way. I think that even the neg'd off comments have a point. There is a difference between a barspin and a bus driver. The ones in this video looked more like bus drivers than barspins. There were double whip attempts, but no double whips.
You shouldn't say this doesn't deserve VOD, this is exactly the kind of video that deserves VOD!

Okey dude, now i get your point. I your last post it seemed as you were talking about how bored you was of theese videos.
"It is just another video exactly like the last one I just watched. I liked the video, but I've seen 12 more just like it in the time I woke up to now."
So basically we think the same thing, that theese kinds of vids are fun.
And about the bars, the guy with the black frame is doing "real" barspins, and i´m doing busdrivers. Eventough i can´t tell any bigger diffrence.

Though they are repetitive, and "cookie cutter", we need to understand that there are thousands of kids all over the globe that share the same riding level. Now that we have a global interface, every one of those kids has an opportunity to show off what they have. I'm all for that. It's the average riders that make the sport what it is. Without them, it would be truly boring.

Call me the odd one out but, i really liked the vid, and the song. Nice riding Nice vid. Well Done!

A barspin is where you actually spin the bars. A busdriver is where your hand leads the bar all the way around. It almost looks like they never took one of their hands of. Like a ball on a busdriver's steering wheel. On a barspin, your hand is off the bars right around a quarter turn so that the bars actually spin on their own. I know things change over time, and names of this and that blur together, but we always called them out what they were. barspins, busdrivers, 360 busdrivers, and a 360 barspin (the holy grail at the time) were called truck drivers.

i hate how people are like same old park/dirt jump video... who cares if its the same isnt every downhill video also kinda the same... i thought it was a pretty good video and just because its "the same" doesnt make it not Vod worthy because technically every video is basically "the same"

We are always running for the thrill of it thrill of it
Always pushing up the hill searching for the thrill of it
On and on and on we are calling out and out again
Never looking down I’m just in awe of what’s in front of me
.................
Best song ever !!!!
and best tricks too !!!
PD. I love Argyle's ...

sorry fellas, i have to agree with streetdude. i mean what he said was pretty harsh, but it was all valid.
but you know, I think we've enough listening to Empire Of The Sun. No problems with this band or their song but I think you should put other one than the same song over and over again..Eventually it turns to boring. It's maybe my mind or maybe other's too,so neg prop me if you want!
sick level and video anyway! you rip!
