Best vid ever...:bowdown:

It's amazing how much diversity you showed there and I enjoyed that very much. Not to mention how FUCKING HUGE you're going.

Thanks for the vid.

ps.The new Koxx looks awesome.

ok, just watched it again- your technique has improved a ton. i think you used to go big because you were just really strong but now i really enjoy watching this vid much more because you are going huge with more technique than ever. its also really nice to see that natural footage mixed in there with the insane urban stuff. you are going bigger than i can even perceive right now. crazy. as for the vid- i liked the last song the best for sure. and that slap you did early on with the guy standing next to it gave it some much deserved perspective. i knew it was huge but i think people will really appreciate the size when they see its as big as your friend! amazing video. i will really be looking forward to future videos from you.

Awesome video, in the England section on that gap where your foot came off mid-air, I actually said aloud "No, he can't . . ." and of course you went and fcuking well did it!

Amazing riding, your technique is really improving, with every video you're dialling new stuff, and super-dialling all the stuff you learnt ages ago - stop improving damn you!

Chris
09-06-2004, 04:44 PM
your riding style is so powerful, really impressive. That 127cm sidehop was amazing. I'm sure you could brake the current world record by benito or dani Comas easily! It was 132cm or whatever..

AndyT
09-06-2004, 04:49 PM
Have you lost weight? Might just be me but you look alot smaller than your vids of last year, especially in the upper body region.

TRA
09-06-2004, 04:58 PM
thanks for great replies , its a big upper in my recently down life .

i have lost about 2-3 kg weight i think .. not much .. lost some muscle in my chest and lost some fat .. uses the triceps for trials , not chest.

btw the world record is at 122 i think by 26" uci record or something like that, theres a lot of different kinda records or summit .. oh well . dont care... sidehops are all mech damaging =P

09-06-2004, 05:01 PM
amazing, truly beyond scope to perceive, as Kevin said. I think there was something wrong with my player at 6:49, I can't believe you'd actually make that gap.

who was the english goat at 10:16? It's good to see you putting some humour in there at the expense of the poms !

Awesome. It seemed like in the last 6 minutes you got a lot smoother. That gap you did across the two big walls was fucking nuts though. That was seriously massive. Congrats on making the koxx team too. I didn't know about that, maybe i don't visit t-f enough?;)

oicdn
09-06-2004, 05:38 PM
Damn...truly amazing...that sidehop over the bench was massive. And when you turned around on that black tube at 11:35 was sick.....lotsa massive and NICE front wheel moves, but for some reason, those stuck out the most.....awesome awesome vid....

that slap you did early on with the guy standing next to it gave it some much deserved perspective. i knew it was huge but i think people will really appreciate the size when they see its as big as your friend!Yeah, its rather big... I think Ben's about 5ft10! I didnt even look at that rock last time i rode there :hsugh: (that riding spot is fairly local to me).

But anyway, sweet vid Tom, enjoyed it a lot more than the previous ones, thanks! :)

Sorry you are having down times... Do you do any cross-training or hit the gym any more? I know you rode mototrials at one point.... I love the scenery in your vids (both the city and natural parts).

wow, crazy moves out there

i'm a big fan and this is truly by far the best vid of you...riding is smoother but at the same time bigger, i'll watch this vid eatch day untill I sidehop 127 cm haha

it's also cool to see TRA gapping to front wheel!!

congratulations

Why you waited so a long time to return and show you? Can you speak to us about your contract with koxx! Why did you drop ECHO?

If not thinks you of starting to make competitions UCI or others. You largely have the level to make fear has ELITES like Hermance or the COUSTELIERS

09-06-2004, 06:47 PM
i would really like to cross train and do other workouts .. but i its so hard to get yourself to do it when you have no one to do it with . im just bearly starting to lift abit weights now and doing some plyometric exercises , but too little ..

dropped echo because koxx looked like more fun and serious ..

sure i can compete in the competitions , just transfer 4000$ to me and im on my way !.

Sorry to hear you are having some bad times, I hope things pick up for you. I have to agree with Andrew, I love the scenery in your videos; in fact, seeing your vids was one on the things that convinced me to study abroad in Norge next semester. Perhaps I could even see you ride in person, that would be very cool. :)

Anyway, keep churning out the videos, they are definately my favorites.

The moves @ 11:09, 11:23, and 13:58 simply blow my mind. As simple as they may seem, I'm completely impressed by that type of rear wheel move!! Awesome riding

09-07-2004, 05:47 AM
Man, you're definitely my favourite rider!
This is your best video to date, no question. I love the way you just seem to float up those rock walls. Norway looks so damn beautiful...
Oh, and the pic where you sidehop 127 is the best...

Chris
09-07-2004, 02:27 PM
you're right Tra, the current 26" record is 121cm by dani comas. So you beat that one with ease :D 127cm... damn, you could even go higher! There were a few inches between your tyre and the bar! That was so impressive. So spend your money, fly over to the worlds in France and show Benito your skills at the sidehop contest :) I'm sure you could beat his 20" record (131cm?) easily.
Lots of respect for your riding!

Awesome video Thomas. Like everyone else has said, this is your best video yet. I watched a few of your previous videos today during class, and it was really noticeable how much your technique has improved. It seems like the XTP fits you a lot better than the pures did. Great job.

I noticed when I downloaded the file that the filename ended with .avi but it's a .wmv file so I simply changed the ending to .wmv instead and it worked.

There is no doubt in my mind that TRA has improved.Unfortunately your style has not improved much. As compared to the other members on the koxx team your height is there but not style. Overall awesome video but lacking in style.

Unfortunately I disagree with you.

Everyone has style, and so does TRA. His style is just different from others. Actually with his improved technique I can't think of more than 2 riders I would rather watch. My opinion of course.

09-07-2004, 11:53 PM
tra that was ridiculous, Ive only downloaded half of it but from what Ive seen. For some of these ups, it looks like your just gonna slam into the wall cuz its so high, but then all of a sudden your on rear wheel.

Even that xtp looks a little small on you, since your riding for koxx now, maybe you should try out a vinco and see if that works for you. How tall are you anyways. Any tips for those of us that cant tap shoulder high?

again, great to see you back on a Koxx again :) I always liked the vids on the koxx more to be honest. And this was no exception.. I won't even bother to start mentioning all the good moves in it, all I can say is if you haven't got the vid yet... well your a goose, what are you waiting for???

Keep up the good work mate.

Hello, like your video's TRA, always impressive.
Quick question. What are the names of the song from echo movies 3 and 4. In my mind they are 2 of the best videos around and I want the song off of them please.

cheers

In my mind TRA has style, may not be smooth like other riders but its good to see a different style, if we all rode the same it'd be borin as fuck.
