  1. With all the awesome videos that have come out recently, i got all
    motivated, and well, next thing you know, i borrowed someone on my
    floor's camera, figured out a new editing program, and made a little
    vid. it's 8 minutes long, filmed over 2 consecutive days.... The first
    day was rainy and left me unsatisfied, the second day was nice and dry,
    however the camera battery copped out after about 8 minutes of raw
    footie.
    well, anyways, i hope you all enjoy...
    oh, BTW, it not street, it is trials, which isn't as much fun to watch,
    but anyways, hope it's okay.
    peace
    -Ryan

  5. Some of us enjoy watching trials more than street. That was brilliant!
    I was going to go through and mention a few of my favourite lines but
    there are too many of them, looks like you've got some fantastic trials
    spots over there. I enjoyed that more than most of the trials in
    Defect...and that's saying something because Defect is incredible!

    Thanks for sharing,
    Andrew

  6. Yeah, I agree with Andrew, awesome lines. And very, very slick riding.
    It's funny how as one progresses as a rider they see trials obstacles
    differently. For instance, early on a curb or a few stairs are the
    hardest challenge. Eventually, you're doing lines you never thought
    were possible when you first started. But, amazingly, it keeps
    evolving. I'm kind of worried what kind of stuff you'll be up too in a
    couple years....

    Later,

    p.s. What's with you spending your moab money on a camera then not
    taking it to college?

    No way! Your video proves trials is still cooler than street.

    That post got me to thinking... just over a year ago street was still
    in its infancy and the majority of vids coming out on these boards were
    focused on trials. I mean, there were some people doing crankflips and
    whatnot but the good vids were all about the trials. And your video is
    a tribute to superb trials riding: long, clean lines, huge hops, big
    obstacles, everything and the kitchen sink.

    Like Andrew said, there were too many awesome lines in that video to
    talk about them all. That's an amazing concrete playground you've got
    there. I also agree your vid is better than most of the trials in
    Defect. There are a lot of cool moves in Defect but no long, flowing
    lines were put together quite like what you just filmed.

    I just gotta say... you make those gigantic SIF hops look effortless.
    F***in' cool riding, man. Keep it up! Thanks for the vid.

    :eek: :eek: :eek:
    Ryan you are out of this world, sure, gravity is bad, but it seems that
    to you, it's just an option.
    This is gonna be my next favorite video to show to those who claim unis
    belong to circuses. Makes street videos look like child's play.

    I'm so excited it makes me wanna curse and swear, I'll go watch it
    again.
    It sounds cheesy but this is one of my selection's finest additions.

  13. man ryan.. you RIP!!!!!

    jason (maestro) said it perfectly, you just made trials vids way more
    fun to watch than street

    i love how you throw in the little tricks in there, effortlessly no
    less.., but the flowing lines w/ some rolling and INSANE gaps are
    awesome

    great vid! quite inspiring... i wish sidehops were so effortless for
    me

  15. Ryan, you're a monster. I ride on campus and downtown all the time, and
    i've never even imagined 90% of those lines. It's nice to see that you
    got some of those lines down that you weren't getting 2 weeks ago. Now
    quit messing around on the uni and get some studying in. Exams are
    coming!!!!

    ....and what I mean by that is I suck, and I think now I'm going to
    sell my trials uni to somebody who deserves it.

    Seriously though, that was sick!

  19. ok never mind, I got it to work now...

    Holy wow! That was absolutly incredible! I can't beleive some of the
    stuff you were doing rubber to rubber, I kept expecting you to pedal
    grab but no....

    And it does have a little street in it, you do some awsome trials line,
    land, then 360 unispin as if what you had just done was too easy...

    Thanks a lot for sharing that. Looks like Ottawa has a lot of cool
    places to ride, too.

    I'd be happy with myself for a long time.
