doesn't mean it wont be good, i dont need to see 360 tailwhip backflips off of 60ft drops to enjoy a film.  this looks like a film that will make me want to get out on my bike, not a film that'll make me think i suck and i'll never be able to do 360 tailwhip backflips off of 60ft drops Smiley

f**k me neither do I. I'd rather see some of the worlds top DH racers. If I wanted tricks, I'd buy a BMX dvd.

It was just the trailer. Ran it through the Xbox.

The website still says in negotiations. There may be licensing issues with Sony for Blu-Ray – I guess it’s expensive on such a small scale.

I like the trailer, like the music, pretty good picture on my 1080p tv (but by no means the best I’ve seen) – but the riding wasn’t hugely inspiring.

Really enjoyed the whole thing, but it'd be a whole lot better in full HD. In fact, that was kind of the selling point of the whole thing  Roll Eyes

That's just a matter of opinion really, I actually really enjoy virtuous-esque films, inspires me to ride...

I wouldn't describe some of the riders (in virtuous at least) as "amateur freeriders" either, one of them's definitely at WC level for example. It's a fairly DH orientated film.

I liked it, but thought there was a bit too many scenic shots between the riding, perhaps I'd appreciate them more in HD tho. I think there might be a few too many fixed zoomed in shots too. I liked the amount of riding on natural tracks and the DH Track section was great. Worth the £12 I'd say.
