LETS SEE YOUR RIDE FOOTAGE

[VWsurfbum]

Popped to swinley yesterday with @DJ57UMP for the first visit in about 2-3 years and the first time on Eeb's. I can't say we'll be rushing back, but what we did do was fun.
Took both cameras with me to have a bit of a play about with positioning and perspective. Unfortunately, I got bored in the editing.
Here's both sets, let me know what you think looks better.
At 2mins i move it from the chin (which was my favorite position to the chest) but the 10 doesnt seem to like it (kind of zooms in to far?)
So in conclusion, I think the 10 on the chest with horizon leveling and the Max on the chin in portrait?

Chest mounted gave the viewer a better view ahead & captures the bars well to add to the action.
Do you not like to use super view, as this would give a greater view of the track ahead & capture your entire bars. No expert, just an opinion?

I do use superview but it just seems more zoomed-in than other peoples superview? I must be doing something wrong lol. Bring back the 6, all is forgiven!

Are you filming with a higher bit rate, when I tried that I found it tended to shrink the view (didn't like it) and just went back to the standard settings. Think you would find the chin mount would be a lot better as well?
That said, I like your videos alot, you sure do get around.

This ride has a bloody great hill to climb.

Don't think I've changed the bit rate but then again I've fannied around with it so much, who knows?
I prefer the chin-mount and a wide view but can't seem to find the sweet spot yet. well, it keeps me occupied chasing a goal of the perfect footage, will work on the riding later
Thanks for the kind words.

Stopped off at the golfie on the way home from Fort William WC for a few quick laps on the ebike. Surprisingly dry and loose after all the rain we had further up North

I feel dizzy after watching all those turns & berms

It all looks zoomed to me , maybe go to default settings and start again . Something ain’t right
Ps with chesty you gotta raise it up a bit and supeview shouldn’t zoom it , if anything it will zoom out as to capture more !
Who sang “rip it up and start again” ?

Probably the most boring mtb vid I've ever seen ..when I say " seen"..I watched about 30 seconds then skipped through the rest to see if there was anything interesting..

You’re a harsh critique Hodgie, give the guy a chance, it’s his first post in this ride footage thread where only the true brave dare enter

The action did ramp up a notch when going off road through the park and zooming through the crowds of children. Luckily no one was hurt in the making of this movie

 

[Tonybro]

It was recorded in June 2016 also...

 

[yorkshire89]

Wow some interesting riding through that field with all the kids playing at the end

This ones also good from 2:30, people jumping out of the way, some urban bollard slalom and a near miss with a push chair before a red light onto a road

It’s like some dash cam video from a dodgy ‘bad drivers’ facebook group, except this is the dash cam from the said ‘bad driver’

It’s a roadie vid , no dirt to be seen

 

[yorkshire89]

Anyway.... Little trip to the local last night. Getting pretty overgrown in places making it hard to see, hands are still stinging from all the nettles

 

[VWsurfbum]

look like fun trails

Looks like they’re running fairly dry still, thought they might be a bit sloppy now. Anaheim looks fun and I know where it is now thanks. We’re probably off there Friday evening for a power hour

 

[yorkshire89]

We were expecting slop so didn't bother washing the bike before but it's good! Anaheim and funkatronical are a bit greasy where it gets steeper but should be nicely dry by Friday

First ride on the Turbo Levo at Lake Fairfax, VA. Bunch of new trails this season.

 

[Jorel]

First ride on my home trails after my ankle injury (torn tendon tore pieces of bone and cartilage out and had to be operated to remove all the pieces).
Not 100% fit yet, but on my way...

Enjoy!

They look pretty good trails there in Norway. Those rocks and boardwalks remind me of a Bon Jovi album title - "Slippery When Wet"!!

 

[KnollyBro]

Oh my... I crashed today! A Blue flow trail on the North Shore, Vancouver.

Wow, what beautiful country & Super interesting trails. Not many videos can capture my interest for a whole 30 mins. Well Done

Love the "rockiness" of that trail and it reminds me a lot of Torridon in the N.W.Highlands of Scotland ..what always gets me are wooden structures there's just something about them that makes me fall off ...
Are you members of the Norwegian tourist board ..that flag also reminded me of the patriotic nature of the Scots ..
Great video really enjoyed it and much like Muzza.. I watch very few.

That wasn't a crash, that was just dabbing with your hands!

We always used to say when skiing - if you don't have a tumble, you're not trying hard enough!
