Haha, it's not 2 1/2 hours long. It's an hour and 40 minutes. There's some really really great footage, and I really liked the narrative / interview segments. If pared down a bit to keep it under an hour, it'd be right up there with Earthed.

yeah i guess there was that intermission...but it could be trimmed down, and would have been great if they showed more racers, it seamed liek it was Rennie, the WTB semi-pro guy, Hill, and Graves for the most part, they didnt even get sanjay on the beach cruiser or pixie bike...

by they you mean Clay right? He's the sole filmer for the video.

What's with people? Everyone bitches that they want longer vids, more like Transcontinental, and when you get it you bitch that it's too long and has too many interviews. WTF is wrong with you people? you demand, they follow demands, and you still complain. there's some seriously wrong ish there.
But you probably liked NWD5.
Racing is played. :rolleyes:
no, i havnt seen nwd5 actually...i saw the collective, i enjoyed that. i saw earthed, and enjoyed that...

I'm not sure if anything has changed since I asked Clay that same question, but last week he said the vid should be ready for release a week or two after last night's premiere. He was still working on the bonus stuff.

The vid was really well produced and entertaining -Too bad you missed it....even worse, you missed one excellent party.

Good news for those interested- The raffle raised around $2500 for SHARE (a southern Cal mtb advocacy group). SHARE is looking at trying to develop and promote the idea to local resorts of a replacement, if not an upgrade to the now closed Big Bear DH trails. While SHARE has typically focused on local OC trails, primarily XC and technical XC, they're on board with trying to give DH and freeriders a venue to ride.

that was a fun night....much bigger turn out than I was expecting. first one of these things I'd been to. the movie was good. I think the main reason it seemed long to me was because I got there too late to get a seat and was standing watching the whole time. the movie has a lot of 4x and slalom action.

The length is a non issue. The film sets out to document every major race in North America - which it does. There were 13 races covered - for like 4-5 minutes a race - that covers 4x and DH with interviews. Add an intro a DJ section and a few rider parts - and thats what you get. If you are not into racing it might seem long to sit through in one viewing -But thats what DVD's are for fools. Watch and skip what you want. Anyway it was made for racers - so comparing it to the collective or NWD is a joke.

Oh, I liked the whole thing, and it really moved well. No boring repetition of 7 angles of the same slow speed hucks, or gimicky crap. The race footage rocked, and the trail riding and jump footage flowed really well. I would likely watch this in segments though, because there is so much footage. Then again, I have a hard time sitting still during a half hour sit-com, so you should consider the source. :D

my hi-use
After the intermission I really didn't get to see much more cause I got the role of filming the crowd and their personal reactions. I hope I got some good faces? I know I got a few of your's Sven, you were at times very animated. Also I stopped drinking for the respect of Clay's camera and the fact that I don't have the money to replace it and be the fool of the party labeled as "THAT GUY". haha, ( but don't worry I got bombed once I put that camera down.) Big thanks to the Bike Co for putting on this event and I was impressed by all the swag that was raffled off for a good cause. SLOW-cal definitley needs a lift acceable mountain cause if not you guys will never be as fast as us Norcal GODS.
Oh and by the way the raffle was rigged, I got the rigging on tape, :) haha.

And did you guys see that movie star there? Yeah, I don't know his real name but his Character's is Seth Cohen from The OC. hahaha.


Taylor your footage is no were near the level I am at.

I know Yeti & Fox racing helped him out tremendously...not sure who else. He thanked them during the intermission, but the PA was kinda screwy & it was hard to hear him.

Thats Adam Brody, pretty cool if it was actually him, wonder if he rides at all...

In case I don't find it in the rest of my search today of the 5 other threads on Synopsis, does anyone know where I can order the movie?

EDIT: nevermind... http://www.videoxsports.com/mobicoso.html

Inside Joke, and I am sorry that you know his name. Clay actually was the person I was referring to.
