  3. I can't tell anything by those pics, the only one that really showed him
    was the wheel walking and rock jumping thing.

  4. Try the thread below, click the link, and open the album for the Damento
    Juggling Festival. There are a couple videos in there of John (and
    Nathan and Beau) doing some stair riding.

    http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23301

    Edit: Actually, all those albums from that link have videos in them,
    many of John. Many also from some of the earlier days, or at least back
    to 2001. Explore.

  7. John's got some muni skillz. He even does gnarly drops and rock trials
    lines.

    I have some video clips of him up at Northstar a week or two ago.

    Check in my gallery under Rides>Northstar>page2 and I have a video of
    John Ceaning a loooooooooong log. Also I have some clips of him riding
    muni in there somewhere.

  9. Speaking of Catoby, one mustn't miss this future classic:
    http://tinyurl.com/86ntc

    If that doesn't work, it's in Catboy's Dirty Harry gallery, which is
    right near the Northstar gallery he mentions above. It's the one,
    relatively appropriately titled, "John Foss totally eating it." :eek:

    I haven't been very good about posting my own little video clips,
    though those rarely show me; they're of others. My own gallery
    software, Smugmug, can display video but only in MPEG1 format. I
    haven't looked into finding the right software to convert my cameras'
    Quicktime video clips...

    Check out this thread: 'Converting from MOV to MPEG or AVI'
    (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=37424)
    It's all Windows based so you Mac converts will have to dig around for
    other software. The software mentioned is all freeware stuff.

  13. Here's video of me being owned: 'JC Crash of the Day'
    (http://tinyurl.com/7vphu) 😄
    I don't know what was up with the laugh at the end. Must be something
    messed up with the microphone on Tom's digicam. Actually I hurt my
    ribs on that fall. Taking deep breaths afterwards didn't feel so good
    so that may be the reason for the funny laugh.

  14. Just for fun, watch this video for a few minutes and pay close attention
    to John's feet just as they come off the pedals. They spin a couple
    rotations as if nobody told them they were no longer on the pedals.
    ......its giggle inducing.

    (Sorry John!!)

    It should be noted that I was too much of a wuss that day to even try
    the log.

    Hilarious! It's like Fred Flintstone air-pedaling!

    But if John weren't such a great guy, it wouldn't be nearly as much fun
    to roast him!
