LETS SEE YOUR RIDE FOOTAGE

[KnollyBro]

Smashed out a few laps of one of the local mountain here in BC. This mountain has it all: greens, blues, blacks, double blacks and even a gun range if you are into that sort of activity.

Red R is a classic old school tech trail with lots of variety including small jumps, drops, rooty chutes and rock rolls. The only hard part is the climb up to it!

Camera pointing still too low, i'm just learning to shoot with grappy budget camera.
This is my morning commute from this morning.

Now that looks like a fun commute.

 

[VWsurfbum]

Sorry, it's a longer one but you'll see why.
4hrs each way in the van as we don't get stuff like this in the southeast
Also wanted to see for myself if i could get my daughter there in the next weeks, (i think she needs a little bit more training first) some blown out trails and some sizeable drops may just put her off and i would be riding worried for her.

We're still pretty much in winter mode here. This video was shot over the weekend on local single tracks using a GoPro Max 360 in Hero (Superview) mode.


Post editing with Max 360 test footage shows what one can achieve on a solo ride with a bit of gear.

I was too excited about getting the hero 10 that I used it last night on my mundane midweek slop avoiding loop.

[Gary]

Yeah. Dom

Pullin yer brake levers when landing on the downslope was an interesting strategy.

Blind run down a very short track @ Taupo's Bike Park.
Thank God they were only really short gaps at the bottom?

Yeah, you're not wrong, but if you think that one was bad you should see the first attempt!

 

[Nando Lope]

Hi there!
I had a good ride in my local trails and I wanted to sum it up in a short video. Glory minute!
I used a Gopro Hero 10 with max lens mod
Hope yo like it!

Minuto de gloria

 

[VWsurfbum]

I think my GP10 was zoomed in? need to check before my next outing.

So Here's part 1 of a series we're going to do. No2 is going to be 12 soon so she needs to be up to speed!

 

[Prairie Dog]

More white goodness from the great white north. One half of the Riverbend Ring is groomed XC ski trails making it an ideal spot winter biking. It’s wide open so plenty of room to pick up a bit of speed. Just a nice way to get out for a Saturday morning ride.

I wish YouTube was easier to upload to and with the same quality!

Looks like a fun flowy trail! Are your brakes ok? It sounds like they maybe over heated (glazed) with the lower pitch vibration but the higher pitch squeal (pads worn out?) !

 

[Robstyle]

Hahaha, yeah man they're super glazed.
The other track I was riding was uncomfortably fast

I have 220mm rotors coming and I'll just have to be braver. It's just too much comfort braking, it's a balancimg act!

Riding in the “desert”.
I am used to ride in the Pyrenees mountains but I sometimes travel to my hometown (Zaragoza) where landscape’s not as green as up here. Anyway it is also a nice place full of trails and I wanted to show it briefly in this video.
I am now shooting mostly with my Hero10 in 4K and 120fps and videos look much better in slow-mo but I think I need a new IPad-pro with M1 chip

Nice video Nando, it looks great. I'm down in the Sierra Calderona. Not as scruby as up in Zaragoza but not as green as the Pyrenees. Atm, its raining like mad for a week so the best I can do is watch some ridealongs!
I can't decide between buying the hero 10 or the max..

Thanks!!! I haven’t been there but it looks like you can find good spots there if it stops raining Meanwhile I recommend you to look for a good place to have a traditional paella (not seafood, just vegetables)
Concerning to the cameras, I would wait for a possible upgrading of Gopro Max around September. Now that I own the Hero 10 I am shooting everything at 4k and I can feel the difference in quality with my older videos shot at 1080. Hero 10 (and Hero 9 or even 8) are very capable cameras to shoot in high quality. The Max offers a nice point of view and more creative videos but the top quality you can shoot is 1080… I’ve heard some voices saying that for 2022’s autumn we’ll have 4 new Gopro cameras and Max will be probably updated. We’ll see! Anyway, Hero 9 or 10 with the Max Lens Mod is also a good solution for wide-angle-downhill videos. Hope it helps!

Actually I'm fortunate to live here, not just visiting. Paella is king! This is an amazing area in a spectacular country . And the trails in my backyard are endless. I've quickly come to believe Spain is one of the most underrated places to mtb in the world.
Thanks for the info, I'm going to the States in September so ideal time to buy (much cheaper electronics). Hopefully the newest gopros will be out by then.
If you ever visit down this way, give me a shout and we can hit the trails.

Took the Gopes out today as I thought one or two bits of the route might be interesting, so here's a bit of raw footage.

 

[VWsurfbum]

The first visit trip to Phoenix Cycleworks in Bury St Edmonds, Strange place to be fair, well built, and plenty of progression for those wanting to go from BMX tracks to full-on dirt jump senders.
No2's footage.
My footage.

 

[Tonybro]

Gisburn Forest yesterday - two laps of The Eight.

This isn't a fast running, adrenaline-fueled show, this is the technicalities of riding in tight trees and roots, mainly.

Still don't know how YT manage to mangle the source material, this is supposed to be 1080p HD (raw footage is perfect).

It takes time to process, I upload in 4K and it takes a few hours to not look like it was filmed through a sock.

This was the mast stage of the EWS when it was here last year. An amazing and very long (for UK) trail.

Noice so close to clipping so many times that looked fun.

This is just standard tree distance round here!

New camera, massive improvement, not a bad ride out too started with handle bar mount then switched to chest mount. Compared to my other camera is a massive improvement.

Thats much better quality and the chest or chin mount makes it a lot better again.
