Thanks. The camera is mainly designed to take stills. So it does video at 10fps at 320x240. Due to the lack of frames the stoppie looks very choppy as I was going pretty fast when I started it.

Ah gotcha...pretty neato riding too. Your practice spots in that vid look like mine. A parking block, curbs and a small varied height wall.....

I am very close to Purdue campus, but I didn't want the stress of looking out for cops and facility people. That way I can setup my tripod and go at it :)

I don't think it was boring at all.

I watch all the videos on this site. Anything to help me out with riding. And that one was well done.

Thanks! :bigthumb:

oicdn or whatever you are sloppy and spend too much time on your computer not enough time on your bike. There i saved you the trouble of buying a camera and all the editing and importing and jazz.

Thanks for the replies guys.

As far as the camera goes. It is a good idea to have one mainly because you can learn what you are doing wrong, if you happen to ride alone most of the time. Even if you are with friends a slow motion analysis is more helpfull. I personally belive in smart training and not the old "practice, practice, practice" saying.

Heh the tire pressue was a bit too low for me as well. I was just too lazy to go into the house and pump up the extra 2~3psi. :)
