Refer to this thread for the full RR.

Here's the vid as promised. Please be kind as this is my first movie made with Final Cut Express. Yes, that's right. I'm no longer using iMovie and have finally decided to graduate to FCE. Although Final Cut isn't as user friendly as iMovie, it's a whole lot more powerful.

Movie is just about 2 minutes.

sarah pulled a Nam.. hahah that looked sketchy but fun

tkblazer · 03-04-2007, 06:25 PM

nice, that kind of crash seems familiar except i wasn't so happy and energetic afterwards!

sauce · 03-04-2007, 07:06 PM

omg ... i am so lame. it's confirmed now.

great vid george. and great job on the drop.

i WILL conquer that drop. soon.

i fell perfectly though. just like good 'ole ned overend says you should fall. isn't that somewhat redeaming?

andino · 03-04-2007, 07:13 PM

that was a pretty good vid

Keith B · 03-04-2007, 07:13 PM

That was a sweet ride. My dive into the tree looked pretty tame compared with the awesome commando roll from Sarah

I was chatting to one of the race marshalls yesterday and he said that by the time we'd come through around 20 people had tried to ride that drop, not that many had made it. Fallers included the very skilled Manuel Prado who finished this years VQ in 2nd place. Mind you it did look really cut up yesterday compared with how smooth it was when we rode it.

sauce · 03-04-2007, 07:16 PM

wanna go back next weekend? :P

new plan - LESS brake and new front tire.

andino · 03-04-2007, 07:18 PM

an/or full squish lol

sauce · 03-04-2007, 07:21 PM

full squish? i think i'd be a much better technical rider if i didn't like falling so darn much!

andino · 03-04-2007, 07:22 PM

lol full suspension

sauce · 03-04-2007, 07:25 PM

oh that ... nah, i am selling my XC full-s bike. too squishy come to think of it.

i want a dowhill bike. if you're gonna go out, go ALL out.

andino · 03-04-2007, 07:26 PM

lol that works too

Winston · 03-04-2007, 07:55 PM

Nicely done.

I enjoyed Keith's run the best. (It's hard to beat the both feet off the pedals with butt in the saddle move.)

sauce · 03-04-2007, 08:01 PM

yup - and keith got the most hurt, too. his shin and his finger got small chunks taken out. kudos for trying!

Keith B · 03-04-2007, 08:12 PM

LOL! I was about to leap off then decided not to because I didnt want to damage the bike. As an engineer I have far too much mechanical sympathy!

roadkillross · 03-04-2007, 08:26 PM

sarah u can use my V10 wont even need to use the damn brakes.

you didn't say it was a v10! well hell yeah. that'll be funny - a 5'2" girl on an extra-large, downhill bike.

is this a trick?

roadkillross · 03-04-2007, 08:59 PM

its a large and it would totally work since the springs would barely move

bjammin · 03-05-2007, 03:54 AM

Awesome vid. That chute is always the decider between a good, and great ride. I love the music, was that Maynard from Tool/Perfect Circle with Linkin Park?
