Amazing.

Can definately see the influence of skateboarding videos in there aswell.Especially as it uses the same music as Guy Marianos section in the Lakai "Fully Flared" video.

I'm going to say it again, inspiring and amazing. I've just watched it a 3rd time. SO impressed. Having played around with trials I know just how damned hard even the simpler stuff he did is, some of the bigger stuff is just mindboggling. Now, do I sell my 26" trials bike and treat myself to a 20" mod for the hell of it...?

@tom84 - ****ing awesome mate.It made me want to go skate again (even though i am 35 & in reality can only just land a kickflip lol) but as a piece of art its something else.Some of the best music i have heard in any skate video.For me guy mariano is the best,but thats because I have loved him ever since the blind video back in the day.You must have seen it.

My hard drive's packed in, but I may have a spare copy of the route on my work PC, will check tomorrow!!!

Its a big old boy, I've only done the full route once and finished it in darkness.

Instead of descending down ranmore common as shown on the map, take the left along the road called white downs while you're going along ranmore common road (10, 50 on the map). Keep you eyes peeled for a trail that heads off the road to the left maybe 500 metres along. You'll be rewarded by a fantastic bit of singletrack with some steep roll ins and coupla jumps...great stuff!!! Though there's one steep going to very steep/wet chalky and off camber bit near the start that I haven't mustered the bottle to clear yet, hats off to those who can!

That route also gets very close to, but completely bypasses, numerous well known local trails...

well, it isn't mtb......but it's an amazing video!!

Completely out of my comprehension to be honest! I can do a trackstand for about...........that long, so some of that stuff is literally incomprehensible.

I am literally gobsmacked............ ๐Ÿ˜ฏ
