THe effect was cool but it was distracting me from the sub-par level of riding with the occasional cool trick

no the riding wasnt bad but true, if u had a gimmick like that in movie, the riding could be terrible and no one really would notice. cool vid though

like pointed out before, it was a summer edit and they were all just trying to shoot in between coaching, so the sub par riding should be overlooked to a degree. They are still all really good and I'm sure over the course of a season they could put together some sick shit.

i was thinking that they used the trapcode particular, i made one of those lights awhile ago, but in order to manipulate it perfectly when the camera moved was unreal, that mustve taken forever, but at the same time i dont think i saw one trick thown in that edit i was too busy watching the light

this dude is pretty gimicky and not even that great at after effects. he seems to learn a new ae effect and than make a shred clip with it. he also did gnar wars which was pretty entertaining.

apparently he did every frame with the light sabers by hand and then i learned that you can have ae do that for you. he must feel stupid.
