Thread: Tricky Tracks

Im never complaining about a tricky farm track ever again

Check this out

LiveLeak.com - how to ride a mountain

Wide angle camera distorting reality I think. Still cool tho

Could be wrong but doesn't look real - his head/helmet doesn't move and it would be all over the place on that ground.

Lol yea bike whole thing has cartoon look to it

f--k that ,i got wobbly watching that guy

Looked pretty real to my amateur eyes... cool

OK I get it... helmet didn't move, bike looks pixellated

Agreed!

Ps. Helmet doesn't move because it's a 'helmet-cam' so no movement of camera relative to helmet. We used one for opening day- sucked for the guy who had to wear a ski helmet in the maimai, but made for some cool footage

I would have thought that there would be ice crystals shooting out the sides of the wheel...or did I miss them

Type "tussock buster" or "boundary buster" into your YouTube page and watch the trail rides done in the army land twice a year, tussock is ridden in march and boundary is ridden in december, over 1600 bikes, easy 100 km in a day. You will see how effective a "go pro" helmet cam is. Easily new Zealand's best trail ride, more laughs than a clown on fire

The cam will be a GO Pro Hero2 ,the rider is standing on the pegs thats why its smooth - i reackon the clip is the real deal ,ive used them on my dirt bikes mounted on the helmet ,and on a chest mount Team roping . Alot of these are used in TV sporting productions , there highly rated cams.

Now that is just plain crazy! I'd give it a go if the zimmer frame had outriggers but the track looks a little narrow in places and I'd probably arse up.

This looks like the same track in summer, you can see it at 2.31


GoPro HD HERO camera: Ronnie Renner 09 Highlights - YouTube

I was in camp for this year's Tussuk Buster, looked like a blast. I also saw an MP try to pull over a bike for speeding...on the one small section of track that was on a sealed road.

We need some forum stickers, it might help to recognize each other. If I saw you I apologize for not saying hi, there were 1650 other riders there though.


Hopefully you not the someone I trod/roosted on, and hopefully your not the someone that trod/roosted me

Awesome fun.

Am doing the boundary buster again this year, the XR has had a strip down and rebuild except for the motor which is fine..
