I put this together last night. Like all of my edits I had to do it in one sitting because I don't own a mac and had to do it in a media center.

Pretty good man! only "problem" I would say I had with it would be all the pov shots not a huge fan but I realize you're limited with shots at a pool so overall awesome!

pretty sweet what i would recommend is maybe to mix up some of the angles (even tho its hard at a pool) and limit the pov shots if they are all going to be crazy flip trick so the shot doesnt make the viewer dizzy but instead leave in the simpler big "airy" tricks to get a sense of height. nice job tho

Totally agree with you guys. Too much pov. As you can tell. At the start it's pretty well balanced. But as I started running out of clips, I started just using what I had left. Bad editing practice but I wanted to include everything.

Also I was recovering from two broken feet and could hardly walk and so I was the one filming in the water. But I had to go rest on the side of the pool so the guys just took the chest mount and did their thing.

Not a big deal at all but I was I could have had my hand in it a little bit more. Ah well.

it was still enjoyable to watch but one thing i've started to learn real fast with several of my edits is that its not quantity but quality, i left several shots out of a few edits that i definitely could have used but decided to go for just the ones that were a bit better than the rest, not saying that you have bad shots just that it will shorten up your video and make it pop a little more. thats just my two cents tho

Totally agree. Oh and btw. I'd give you +K, but you were already at 10/10.
