NEW coustellier Video!!

[Chris]

http://www.coustellier.co.uk/videos/hanleyconcourse2004.mpg

the part where it says "watch the feet" is absolutels insane!! He lands a huge touch hop with the wrong foot in front and moves on with the other foot.

[oicdn]

That is the sickest film.... :eek:

[afrobot]

Perhaps if I buy a similar chinese bicycle I will be similar in ability.Anyway, I'd still rather see them in comp form.Urban has grown
tiresome.

[digby]

wow that chick has balls.



I would have totally mowed her over trying that.

[Chris]

wow that chick has balls.



Indeed! She does have balls...

[DanBowhers]

that video was terrible....now to go throw my bicycles in the trash...

[WhiteRavenKS]

i was really lucky and got to see this a couple weeks ago :bigthumb:

that was so rad. danny is getting so much better it's rediculous. gilles... always a pleasure to watch.

[dr.gee]

Who knew that this was possible?

[Andreas]

holy shit. i watched it, then again, and again and again. this shits out of control, they're crazy good. those ups were crazy, as were some of those surges like the one up the railing. holy shit.

[Chris]

have you ever tried doing a touch hop with the wrong foot in front at the end? That's crazy!! I mean doesn't Gilles have a "wrong foot"?? So much timing and coordination is needed to make it with the wrong foot in front.
I mean, hopping on backwheel or whatever with the wrong foot in front is already pretty hard, but going up such a huge wall.. that's awesome.

Thanks for the video. Those guys should try doing competitions. :ugh2:

[uownme]

[Gardenfan]

[thetart20]

Probably run out of bandwidth...

Matt says he'll host it :) I'll get in touch with him now... cheers for the comments

Adam

[hophopsnap]

sillius..where are you in california?

[xumbyx]

I cant go to the coustellier.co.uk site, pinkbike.com and a bunch of others because my school is so paranoid about viruses, and us downloading mp3's or something like that... Matt if you hosted it, that would be so key, otherwise i gotta wait till i go home next to DL it :(

[Bloodhound]

OH MY FUCK! best ridding I have EVER seen!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:

[Lagerhead]

I'm not sure I comprehend exactly how amazing that is.
I do know they use the best music in their videos.

[WhiteRavenKS]

gilles digs linkin park. a lot.

im basically ignoring music when i watch the brothers and danny ride...

[warpig]

Sweet vid, though I am a little disappointed that he didn't put a dollar in her cleavage and try and take it out with his teeth right as he stalls the nose manual. Would'a been kewl...................

[WhiteRavenKS]

it wouldnt be a dollar though... it would be a pound :joshers:

[warpig]

Put whatever, I'm first in line :yum:

[silus2000]

Awesome video I thought, but the first Cous video seemed twice as impressive to me... :ugh:

Yes, I am from California, and yes I was joking.

[Elan]

who's going to host this thing..im getting anxiety sickness.

[Gardenfan]

they have 2 different links now, and one actually works. go snag it.

[Matt]

Tart asked me about a week ago if I'd host when it was done being made, but never came to me when the vid was going to actually be released. Since it appears some people are having problems, I threw it up on the server. Send me a PM if you want it down Adam.

one word "Insane"

[Cryo-Cube]

i hate linking park, so wannabe hardcore-alternative-non-mainstream-dudes when in reality they are as mainstream as Britneys left tit. + every damn song sounds the same.

[WhiteRavenKS]

totally. i was so mad about the music i couldnt even see the volume knob on my speaker and i was blinded by rage and couldnt see the riding :joshers: edit- by the way, that's a litterary device known as sarcasm.

Sorry about that Matt, i was under huge pressure from the Coust Webmaster to get it up (like being pestered every few hours for a week)... and couldnt get hold of you at the time it was finished (MSN, AIM). Im sure it wont be needed to be taken down :)

Thanks,
Adam

[oicdn]

Man...that's sick....The Brothers ROCK....things in video are always watered down, as when you see it in person, you shit your pants...I wonder how bad Kevin shit himself when he saw them ride :D

[aki]

Just badass...and I love Linkin Park :D

[planetary1]

I do know they use the best music in their videos.

Please tell me you are joking. That is the worst teeny conformist pop junk I have ever heard that is also in every other trials vid and it ruined the video, had to watch it 10 times with my jaw on the floor with the music off.

That is very unmanly music and it does not fit with the previously established ultra-man power persona of the Coust bros as described by White Raven KS.

[oicdn]

You've gotta be kidding right? I mean, just cause they got popular doesn't mean they suck....they just kinda fell into that niche of the trendy people liking them....I mean, AFI got popular, but the band still rocks.....the concerts have kinda bobo people in the crowd, but they still rock...it's the same for Linkin Park...shitty crowd, but good music, IMO.....

[DangerousDave]

that video wasn't that impressive...and i'm being serious. probably the most disappointing of all the cous videos. Danny is definitely getting good though. But yea nothing was really impressive in that vid. cept when gilles (i think) taps to the edge of that wall thats only a few inches wide. But other than that it was pretty boring. the 2002 orres vids were a lot more impressive

[Elan]

im with dave on this one..it was a good video, but not the best the brothers have put out. muisc- who the fuck cares, if you dont like his music, either (a) dont watch it or (b) put it on mute and STFU.

[DangerousDave]

i actually really liked that linkin park song before it was released as a single. then i heard it on the radio...and on the tv...and everywhere. and now i hate it...

[Chris]

So there isn't any other impressive move in it? I think the "watch the feet" part is really impressive, more than everything else in the video.

[silus2000]

Yea, what exactly does "not impressive" mean? I was feeling the same way, but then I realized it doesnt look "impressive" because they make it look so dam easy. So, I would save the "not impressive" comments for other riders. If you said that to them they would laugh in your face. What a stupid thing to say about some of the best riders in the world.

As far as the music, it didnt bother me. I dont consider myself a linkin Park fan, but the music in the Cous-Nottingham video was perfect to me.

[Elan]

ill ay it again, it wasnt that impressive.

[silus2000]

Well, you didnt say it to begin with.

Choose your drugs wisely.

[Elan]

wtf. :slap:

[DangerousDave]

holy crap elan we actually agree on something :bigthumb:

[Gardenfan]

The two of you are both as gay as my bike.

They really need to make a video shot in the daytime, like on a saturday or sunday? lol.

[AgrAde]

it was a pretty damn good video, but they could have done better. the editing with the lightning and guy screaming was cheesy as hell though.

[silus2000]

im with dave on this one..it was a good video, but not the best the brothers have put out.
ill ay it again, it wasnt that impressive.
Well, there can only be one "best." Doesnt mean the other one isnt sick as hell, or, "impressive."

Im my experience, people dont usually like to point out their stupidity, but I guess you are the exception. Hopefully english is not your first language.

:ugh2:

[DangerousDave]

well watching the first cous vid was like holy crap those guys go big and they're so in control. but they have no style. this can relate to the cous not being invited to bike uk 2004. they have incredible technique. it blows my mind to watch how precise they are. but its boring after a while.

go watch manifesto or something. its super innovative and still has big moves and tech moves. its a good mix.

or if you want a uci example or two. kenny beleay and marc caisso. both incredible riders, ex-uci champions who can do the big stuff and make it look cool

[WhiteRavenKS]

you probably wont be a cous dvd customer then. personally the big moves are whats cool. i dont know how else one would go about getting up a 5 foot wall to rear so to me- they ooze their own unique style. i liked manifesto too but then again, i am a euro bitch wannabe so i would rather watch the cooooos footage i have. :bigthumb:

[DanBowhers]

Sorry for sounding retarded, but who was that dude on the mod in the first riding shot? Is that an even younger coos brother or cousin or something? Or was it just an easy warm up line, or was there something more difficult that I have missed about the line (ie doing it switch or something?)

[WhiteRavenKS]

some punk kid who will undoubtedly kick all our asses in a few years.

[Bloodhound]

DangerousDave - interesting... but I disagree. Look at parts like 0:52 - his totally stylish drop, 1:05 super smooth up, 2:20 looking as comfertable as ever on the back wheel, lets not forget the riding style moves like the crazy pedalspin dance on rear, nosehops (which was very smoothly transitioned), and the hot chick nose wheelie thing. I think its more the fact that some of the moves are so big and technical that there is not much room for personal style no matter who you are.

[DangerousDave]

yea i can see your point. there style to me is about their control. which is amazing to watch. but they just doesn't seem as fluent between moves to me. i like to watch quicker riding i guess. thats why i like caisso and leech so much. not a lot of stopping.

its all good though. they definitely have amazing skills. i'm definitely not arguing with that....

[silus2000]

i like to watch quicker riding i guess. thats why i like caisso and leech so much. not a lot of stopping.
In other words you like better editing...

I totally disagree with the no style comment. Gilles, especially, has tons of style. The reason why you cant see it is because you are too preocupied with being amazed at how big and percise they are going. :bigthumb:

I guess you can say Ryan Leech has style, but I dont think you can use him as a comparison because Leech has a bmx/trials style. He just does things for show, as you wont find him at too many competitions. I wonder what types of things the Coustilliers are capable of if they just stuck to practicing for demos like Ryan Leech.

[WhiteRavenKS]

cassio rides just like the brothers do. in comps with time limits they tend to move about the same pace. caisso also looks different because he is 5'2"... caisso is rad. i love to watch him.

[DangerousDave]

thats probably why caisso looks so fast. because he has to move that fast to get his momentum with his size. 5'2? damn.

i will always be against the cous "style" factor. of course they have style. but its more competition style. i like the more fluent styles, ed tongue, keita miyaoka, etc. just an opinion.

but getting back to the video...i still think that movie was pretty crappy. limited in cool moves and dark! ride in the fuckin daytime ppl!!
i enjoyed kevins school video about ten times more

[Bloodhound]

Dave, are you planning on making another vid in the 2004 season? Your last one was rad'
btw, do you know if Crowfoot sports closed or what?

[Allmjm]

For people talking about the darkness, turn up the brightness on your windows media player. Once you do that you shouldn't have a problem.
Martin

[DangerousDave]

thanks for the tip martin..i'll have to try that.

blood, not sure if i'll make another video. that old video had footage from about 10 months of filming. and i have zero new footage at the moment...
maybe late in the season though.

and yes crowfoot sports is no more sadly

[AndyT]

i enjoyed kevins school video about ten times more


fraid I'll have to agree with you there...I've never had a cous vid that I didn't watch 10x a day, this is the one exception. I've probably watched it 4 times total.
