Yeah, I know what you mean. What I'd love is a camera that can record
at something like 60 frames per second to capture those sorts of skills
better. When I was making those tutorials I considered slowing it down
further, but it didn't play fluidly enough for my liking. I'll
consider re-doing them, but it won't be for a while. For now, try
viewing slowing them down yourself. In Windows Media Player you can go
to "Play speed settings" down in the bottom left. If you can't find
this, go to the help menu. My default media player (for things other
than audio) is 'The Core Media Player' (http://www.corecoded.com/)
which I really like. In that one you can slow it down to half speed by
pressing "Control+1", then "Control+2" to return to normal speed.
There should be an equivalent for most media players, I'm not familiar
with Macs though. I hope the WMV video files will allow
this...actually I just tested it and it doesn't seem to work too well.
Is it just my computer? Any suggestions? John? 😉

wall and back on
No. Sorry, I have no street riding skill. 🙂 You'll have to ask
somebody else. On that note though, I'd love some street tutorial
donations.

Im tuning mine, the crank length is the pont i hate more, i find 140 to
be too short and 170 too long, what do you advice me? 150 KH ones or..
160 Koxx, thanks!
Well I'm really just waiting until this friend of mine finds time to
make my frame. I've been waiting for over 6 months though, so I don't
know how long it will be. I'm really missing muni.
Your muni is looking really nice. It's strange seeing snow...it's
summer here. Are those Odyssey Twisted Pro pedals? I used to ride
with them. If only they made them stronger.
As for crank lengths, last year I upgraded from 145mm Profiles to 160mm
ones. I think they're ideal for me. I remember I emailed Kris Holm
asking about crank lengths and braking technique and some other things
and he said he rides with 165mm cranks and doesn't use the brake much
down the really bumpy technical descents. I wouldn't want to go any
shorter than 160mm, now that I have them, but I could see myself being
quite comfortable with 165's. I think 160's are ideal for me
though...they offer plenty of torque and 5mm less chance of hitting the
pedals on ruts, roots, and rocks. 🙂
