2015 Sampler Song: Tame Impala - Let it happen (I do not own this song) Edit: Rasmus Ott Colorgrading: Mathias Laustrup Special thanks to: Invincible Tricking, Fuss & Disturb, True Tricks and Project JumpOff
You are no longer one of my top three tricksters to watch, (as I always mention you in my top three for years now) ... You are now my top trickster to watch, my #1, my favorite. I finally have one, single, favorite trickster. Not just three favorites in no particular order. I now have a favorite. And you are it Ott. You are the ultimate, the most fun, the most soulful, the bestest master of the tricking universe. I bow down to you and pay the highest respect I can and the deepest thank you I can.
+Acrobolix This means the world to me - seriously. About 10 years ago I learned how to do a B-twist (among other tricks) from your tutorial. Crazy to think about. You reap what you sow! :D
Jujimufu I still read this comment from time to time. Thanks again for the kind words Juji. Coming out with a sampler very soon that I hope you will check out!
I came here to comment basically the same thing as Juji, and when I arrived, he had already said it. I remember saying it years ago, "Ott might be my favorite tricker to watch", and now I know it for sure. The creativity, the swipeyness of the SWIPES, the legitimacy of the hooks, the transitions that come from nowhere, and the POWER melded into all of that. Even the segment near the middle, with clip after clip of swing thru action, is not repetitive. Additionally, I believe that you are one of the few who has truly mastered a "tricking btwist" in the sense that you successfully throw them in the beginning, middle, and end of combos - and they are all of the same caliber of cleanliness. It is also really intense when you are hoping to nail a double btwist at the end of something already difficult and it's fucking awesome to see you nail it and get pumped. Your music ALWAYS happens to be the type of music I listen to, so I luck out there too. I'm not really up on the tricking community like I used to be, and when you first posted this online I was surprised to see you still pushing it, but now I am just grateful to see it! PHEW, lotta words of praise there, but you've put in the work since the days of the TT boards and I've been watching since! So cheers.
Andy Hoff reading this comment a year later than it was written. This gives me so much motivation right now. I am working on a new sampler with only outside tricking clips. I hope you will check it out at the end of August. Thanks alot for these words and have a great day!
Hey Ott - Great sampler as always. I have to echo what Juji already said: I've been following your clips since you first started posting them on the TT board years ago. Back when you used to release small minisamplers. I used to watch everyone but you were my absolute favorite because you were one of the only people who I felt really saw tricking as a form of art. You were always tricking to be as inventive as possible; always playing around with original combinations and tricky technical transitions, with flow and rhythm in combos. Tricking is painting, it's writing poetry with movement. So many people use it like a blunt instrument and never connect to that side of it. When I watch your videos I feel like I'm not just watching a tricker, but an artist at work. And that's incredibly rare. I always love seeing your ideas and your compositions and I'm looking forward to the next video!
+LockeTricks I also want to mention (though my comment got too big), that I love your use of soft and indie rock for tricking samplers and that I've discovered at least four of my favorite bands from your videos =) (and even gone to see a couple live). Most samplers go straight for the metal, which is fine and all, but there's something nice in seeing tricking combined with that kind of contemplative music. The last thing I wanted to mention is that I saw some clips from the Faroe Islands in there! Oh man... I discovered that place quite recently online (I think a lot of non-Danish people have never heard of it), and I can't get enough of images and videos from there. It looks too beautiful to be a real place on Earth. I'm desperate to go out there and visit. Was it as great as it looks?
Great video long over due i see you still have some problems with the knee how is it doing now do you need the brace much what was wrong with knee and hows the ankle now
