I watched half this video at school, scrolled down and read a crappy comment, and I was actually going to post the video to defend these guys, but... then I sat down at home and watched the rest of it up until 1:49. I turned that shit off and walked away.
I was really enjoying their little video (on mute of course, that music is God awful), remembering when I was a scrappy teenager and had a clapped out bike, and we went out into the woods with a Sony handy cam we borrowed from my friend's mom to make crappy videos, and all that nostalgic shit, but then at 1:49 I saw a tag-team skid-turn train and I dropped that shit like it was hot.
A public service announcement: if you freeride flick, I will turn your video off. That goes for you, too, Semenuk and Agassiz, you're not above this. In fact, there's a pretty good chance you two SUPER PRO Canuckistanians are the reason little kids are learning this awful behavior at all.
And make no mistake: free ride flicks are a gateway drug to other horrible behaviors, like being Canadian, talking about brown pow and soul, or using clique Instagram-esque filters on your videos.
When you do skid turns you probably think you look like this:
You don't look like that.
Oh man! A 7.5 second trailer would be a total spoiler to all the rest of the bermy montage. I thought I had hit a repeat button at one point... Also, ringtones don't make good soundtracks to mountain bike videos.
ReplyDeleteDid you see the new silvia video with agassiz, or however you spell his name? I bet you would love it...
