anyone seen this yet?

I have the video. There is some awesome riding in it. I do love Day Smiths, knee in the bars nothing hang five thingy <lol> I don't know what it's called. Still, nothing I have never seen him do.  The video is good quality, but so are others. The music is well... Matilda the composer does a good job at what she does. However, I could care less for these wanta be artsy fartsy type vids. This is just me and my opinion guys. The video is extremelly short. I didn't realize how long it was before I ordered it when Pat first got them in. The shortness of the video sucks big time. You only see each rider pull one or two links or tricks. I wanted to see Day Smith more than twice among others. The sound track I will never listen to. I like classical and composed music and Matilda does a fairly good job. Again, as far as bike vid goes. I dont' want the artsy fartsy crap at all. This vid does not motivate to ride. Even if I could ride right now.  If I want arsty fartsy I will head to the country club plaza for dinner then to the lyric opera house afterwards in KC. 

I think there is way to much hype with this video and nobody is saying much about it after it's release. Well, for the screnings at different events and it's probably good for that. After all it is very short. Hyped as a future document of myths and legends for future generations?  I highly doubt this will be the video that future generations look back to.  Is it a good video? yes on some points. Is it made well? yes, but I hate the music. The music is good for other things, but it doesn't do it for me in a bike video. Does it really document anything? nope!  it doesn't even tell you who's who when their riding. If you were a future genteration rider you would learn nothing about the riders in this vid and there are better vids to look back on for just looking at riding. Is the riding good? yes and no. There are some things that are really cool, but only seeing that rider very breifly once or twice sucks. Is is worth the 20 dollars? Not even close!!!  If it were double the length in time then the money spent would have been worth it. Even then, it would still be a video I would only watch a couple of times.  If you want this video I will sell it to you for ten dollars. Also, the bonus sections are just viewing the video with commentary over it and it's super lame. Again as a "so called" documentry it would have been nice for them to talk a little about the riders along with what it took to shoot it. Instead they just talk about the shot, how they seem to like each and every shot as their favorite and seemed to spend half the time on how hard it was to get the coloring right and that type of crap. Thats nice to hear and all, but what about the riders? Nothing! Nothing! Nothing!!!  The deleted scenes were dump and nothing special at all. <lol> there was no music for it even. Then if you just really dig the soundtrack you can listen to Matilda's commentary about her music over the vid. That was even more boring than the commentary over the vid by Tex and herself.

She needs to pimp her soundtrack at starbucks or Barnes And Noble and she may do ok. Still I don't think she actually plays the instruments in her music and used a computer to compose everything by sound bites. I could be wrong, but from the way she speaks of her music is what it seems to me.

All in all, I just don't care for this video much at all. There are so many cons that out weigh the pros. I still think many of you guys may like it, but after that first night of watching it. I doubt if I will ever put in my player again.

i just want to see ross smith bust out.

anyone know anything about ross smith in the video?

i heard it comes with a second disc. anyone know anything about it?

oh damn. so is thing even worth getting?

Got my copy in today. I'm going to review it for the magazine... Looking forward to watching it.
-fat

My copy is still on the way here.

In theory I am really looking forward to the different productions style, mix of riders and just a fresh type of video in general...... we'll see how it works out in practice 

From what I have read about the production though, you have no idea how much extra effort Tex put in, and just for that, I was always going to buy it.
