I've been watching a lot of your videos lately...fantastic! I'm curious on your thoughts on a "do it all" bike. I have been looking at the Sight and also considered the Meta Tr. I live in Oregon so I have some chunk and some fast flowy trails, even a little bike park riding. I'm looking for something that pedals well but that will also be good on the dh and jumps.
For me your like the spiderman of the bike community, always speaking his mind on everything and when you don’t talk a lot, you know stuff need concentration.
So I notice you coast with your left foot forward, I do mine right foot forward, and can rip left hand turns better than right hand turns, which I think most everybody in general, is better at left-handers, because most tracks will go in a counterclockwise direction so you get more left-hand turns, but also because my feet are set up for that type of corner. I ride. goofy on a surf or skateboard. Wondering if that correlates because that’s my leaving foot skating or surfing. But my real reason for commenting is what a great Sunday morning with a cup of coffee, apple fritter and dangerous Dave! Great video!
You BC guys are the real deal. I see snow on the ground so it must be cold. In the N LA couty/south Ventura county area, my group usually only rides when the temp starts with a 5 (fahrenheit). but we have ridden when it was in the 40s. I prefer in the 60s but I'm a wimp. 🙂
Hey Dave! i don't wanna bother you but.. can i ask you how much fov you put on the export settings? that would really help me to find the right one! cheers!
I’m away without my cpu at the moment, but I think I do something like 90 fov and 0.4 for distortion for widescreen clips. Hard to remember exactly though.
Your ride is so awesome!!! Would like to know how you use your breaking like when to use your front or rear? I see you skid a lot on steep and slippery? Thank and ride fast!
Do you edit the sound or is it raw from the camera? I notice you have the wind muffs on the sides. So those ever show up on the view? I have insta360 x2 & x1. Thx
Man that looks so fun! It would be so awesome if you could set up a video production like Fabio Wibmer with second or third camera angles on several of the bigger drops, steep rock faces, and other features of interest... I realize that would take a lot more time to shoot and edit, but it might get the same (or better) market saturation that your "beyond expert" video got.
Nice video, really enjoy your rides! 😊 Are you going to stick with the insta360 x3 or are you going back to GoPro at some point? I personally prefer the insta360 pov
@@ddangerousddave nice, I actually also like the POV better than with the GoPro and don’t see any downsides - it’s even better to demonstrate steepness and we can see more of the bike
I'm now calling riders like yourself the one percenters... Lol only 1% of people are crazy enough to do this. You and your group you ride with and also wreckless riders on YT and his group are the main ones I see this crazy. It's awesome! It seems like no matter how much calculation you make on a ride like this their is still a Ton of risk imo.. but obviously less risk with someone of your skill level. Great video
Those were some seriously amazing rides! The dog towards the end got me curious though, have you ever encountered any wild animals on your trail rides? Bears, mountain lions, wolves, or anything like that?
While the gopro has the tendency to make things look kinda flat these insta360 videos look too artificial. The way the footage warps around the edges is a bit off-putting. The gopro shows things as too flat and too slow while this thing goes in the other direction showing the first person perspective as faster and steeper than reality. Maybe there are some settings to tone it down a bit.
The picture quality is great, but such a wide FOV really takes away the essence of the trail. I end up just looking at the trees because the trail just looks smooth with the stability too (I know it's not)
is this in any way related to viva frei? :') regardless, i kind of like turtles too, but i like parakeets more, they can learn words and shit man, bunch of happy and smart little fuckers
while I like the camera, it does make it difficult to sense how fast you are actually going. Normal pedal speed looks like you're going really really fast, and so when you're actually going fast, it's harder to tell
I feel like some of your cuts are a bit too aggressive. A good bit of your content is like visual ASMR and sudden cuts tend to break this. Plus we're here for the ride if you catch my drift. Of course I don't know what is cut so maybe cutting less wouldn't be better, but I guess my main problem is the suddenness of some of the cuts.
