Myself and my friend will be creating a MTB video, which will include various different techinques.

I ride - GT aggressor xc3

He rides - Carrera something....lol

Things we already plan to include


Mountain biking

Jumps - ranging from 1ft to about 6 ft

Jumping over people

Jumps with handlebar spin ( Don't know name)

Fast berms and corners

Techincal stuff at speed


Places

Ribbesford DH track - bewdley

Rifle Range Nature reserve - Kidderminster

Wyre forest - Bewdley Kidderminster area

Burlish Top - Kidderminster/stourport

Kinver DH - Kinver

Editting

We plan to have more than one camera man, we plan to get different angles of one particular thing. If we are jumping over somebody for example, we will have the person being jumped over recording and somebody on the side also recording. I will then edit it into one fluent clip

    good for you
    92% of teenagers have turned to rap. If your one of the 8% that still listens to real music put this in your sig.

    No offence, but unless you are doing full on DH then a song like that will make the riding look worse. Too often you get videos with heavy metal and the people cant ride for fook (not saying that you cant ride) and it just looks terrible

    I like Flutter by Bonobo for a bike film - been listening to it and thinking would make a good soundtrack but perhaps is a bit mellow for what you are thinking of. I was thinking it'd be good for skiing over bikes.

    Got to agree with Pete. Look at the Roam video. They only really use heavy metal on the downhill scene at Whistler.

    The Ryan Leech Scene [who really can ride] they use a melower track; whilst Bearclaw [who also can ride] gets a rap-style track.

    Just somefood for thought...
