A Run Down SM with RC part 1/2

[kazz1967306]

You can tell it's not fast forward-Ed cause look at the slack on the arm of his shirt flap AT NORMAL SPEED

How far away is this from desert ridge?

[robertoeze122007]

Is the top half harder than the bottom? I've done the bottom already.

wide angle lens or not, the time it takes you to go through the turns is innaccurate when compared to ANY of the other videos. this video looks like it was 60mph.

[BurtonRMC]

@fightinirishpj haha dude I'm not trying to impress anyone...like I said, not sped up, it's a 170 degree lense mounted on the back of my friend's board which is extremely close to the ground ...makes things look fast for sure I agree but check out "jlb and some buddies riding somo" same cam but on a guy's head behind me

[KGGalb]

NICE!

[idratherdielikeaman]

yea, this really does look fast forwarded, i have an evo and gone down SM myself, its not like in the video,

[BurtonRMC]

full tuck the whole time? come ride it with us sometime if you'd like, there's no reason to speed it up, just straight go pro footy looks fast cause it's wide angle lense close to the ground on back of friends evo, who are you I might know

[idratherdielikeaman]

i figured it out.. its the wide angle lens :p

I was watching ur vids and all the ones where you used a wide angle looked faster, so thats prolly it

[driftfreak6969]

what road is this?

it looks like summit road to me. i can't tell.

What is a good starter helmet for stuff like this?

[BurtonRMC]

It really depends if you want a half shell or a full face. For a half shell helmet, I would suggest getting on with cpsc certified foam. It protects against higher impact crashes. For a full face I personally like the Bell Drop. It's comfy and lightweight with great standards. You can find new helmets like these for cheap if you shop around on the net.

[roger69z]

Is it true that if you have the bell Drop helmet that you can atatch like a charly no limit face shield to it?

[BurtonRMC]

Not really...you'd probably have to drill your own holes and mount it and it STILL wouldn't fit perfectly...but I've heard of many people doing it and you can make it fit nicely with a little work and some extra parts

[themailman17]

This video looks fast-forwarded starting at about 0:55...

[BurtonRMC]

top half doesn't start off super fast right away, gets faster and faster till the big drop and then a big right then left....got no reason to fast forward it haha, looks fast cause the go pro cam is mountain on the back of my friend's evo, road goes by fast with the wide angle lense

[tulaconalas]

what a sweet spot
