3 things...

can i have your setup w/ rails and all?

can i have your trampoline?

and how do you like your '09 booters? thinkin about getting em

and for the edit portion

i think it's quality, seeing as i watched it all withour really any 'bad' critiques... but i'm afraid it's not contest winning material.. i don't think 'more' editing is necessary.. just 'different' editing..

the editing is incredible... the camera work is smooth as ever. i especially liked the window relfection shot. I guess it wouldnt hurt to cut a few of the tricks out and focus on the banger ones like the 4 fifty and whatnot.

Camera work is fabulous.

In the beginning, I didn't really feel like it was "color correction" so much as color manipulation...I didn't really like it, and a few of the shots looked way too green.

Towards the end I got into it more.  Dolly shots were fantastic.

I think it looks pretty good. You don't want to overdo fancy effects or transitions because at a certain point it starts to get worse. I think what you've done is good and I would like for you to give me all your rails and drop in as well. Good lookin vid.

i didnt like the stuff you did from 0:07-0:19 but after that it was pretty good. like said in an above post too in a couple later on shots the greens and blues were a little messed up but keep at it cause that was a pretty sick edit

good edit. dolly shots are dope like previously stated. but i am going to suggest to not be so redundant with tricks in the edit. 1 front swap is enough, we dont need 15..(exageration). other than that, editing seemed good. just keep makin edits and having fuN!

what blondie said about color manipulation - hes right, way to fake.. plus your colors were all over the place, sky went from sky blue to royal blue

what jwenz said about trick repeating - hes also right..


First 6 seconds didnt do anything for me besides bore me.. cut out some of the repeat filler shots (clouds rolling, guy walking with skis)

And Im sure you know what they say about songs in edits.. and even if you havent seen it an edit with the song, Im sure most of the NS population has heard that song and of the cool kids..
