Wheeldrop owns a shortbus. Is no one going to jump on this?

Sorry to bring up an old post, I ended up buying it. I've done a lot of work to it since to get it road worthy. Pretty much just needs lights, exo age, deck and rear bumper now.

Funny cause he said he would be there, NO SHOW!

My vagina gets itchy when it sees rain clouds.

That's the Murder City Devils, sick band, I have partied with them, the keyboard player was hot.:rocker:
Was that BMX video published? Same tune was used in Pedalfiles, I am hoping that Ambrose did not song jack that bmx video.

No they're some bmx guys from coquitlam, those two guys and surrey steve. They're friends of a friend. I found the vids on youtube and laughed when he ripped open his pants in anger.

I'm in complete disagreement with you.

VHS is dead. It was replaced by a DVD which is being replaced by blue-ray which is already being replaced by direct downloads. It's not gonna make a comback. It'll be just like the vinyl records they tried to bring back; it didn't happen and now all old people think their old records are worth a lot of money.

Slow-mo has it's ups and downs. Hater's gonna hate, but there's something about seeing a clip slowed down to almost a dead stop. Abuse of the effect has killed it a bit, but it still has it's place in any fast-moving form of vid.

Music's a personal preference, but the thrash in your video did not make me want to ride, it just makes me want to turn off the video, or at least my speakers.
There's nothing like a song that's perfectly synced to the flow of the rider on screen, no matter what genre, but it's gotta have a beat that can match up. And personally I like the bike sounds over top of the music or all by themselves.

As for blood and tits, it all has it's place. Too much blood can make you cringe and take you out of the "must ride bikes" mood. Same for tits, too much and you'll shut the vidder off and go look at the boob thread :P.

Just my two cents, but I like where bike video's are at.
Though I must admit, I don't mind pulling out and old vid like 'Back in the Saddle' and watching it again for the 10th time. :rocker:

VHS is making a come-back. Obviously you aren't in the know. For starters, you can barely find any through craigslist. An obvious indicator that it's niche, which means it will be mainstream within 12 months.

Secondly, to get the full benefit of VHS, you need to hook it up through coax cable. None of this component or upconverting HDMI shit. Also it helps to store the VHS tape or even the entire VCR in the deep freezer when not using it. When auditioning VHS tapes, I usually put them back in the freezer at least 2 or 3 times during a video. It really brings out the detail that a bluray can never expose. The video comes out warm and full-bodied. I've tried recording Life cycles from bluray to VHS, but it comes out looking muddy and without definition. Comparing it to reference quality stuff, like Crusty Demons of Dirt 2 on VHS, it just can't compare.

Most video and Audiophiles will tell you that VHS is preferred over BluRay. The analogue sound has warmth and colour to it, and detail that you just can't get out of high def video and audio. Especially after it's been played a few hundred times.

Digger's newest has lots of rad archived footage and I think it's awesome. I've been starting to miss sketchy stuff and falling. Like old 80's skate footage.

Life Cycles is good though. It's pretty. It's like a MTB movie, but for IMAX.

As someone who fucking sucks, I've had good times with Sony Vegas. It natively does that ACVCDH shit that makes Adobe Premier choke, and seems to run a bit smoother. Also, there aren't so many options as Premier so it makes producing more professional looking stuff a bit easier.

It's free for the first 30 days, then you have to buy it for $99 or something, or steal it if that's what gets you off.

I watched the newest Digger video a few weeks ago, and it got me thinking…

MTB movies need to revert back to shitty VHS, have no slo-mo, trashy music that is free and if it isn't who cares, and they need more blood and tits.

I pretty much did the most work of anyone yet I don't see myself in any of the vids. Fuck this gay Earth.

Where does this guy live that this isn't covered ?
