Oregon Dunes Apocalypse Two - Winchester Bay HD

[jet79637]

Great images but conforming them to go along with the song makes for a very busy video.

[jake400ex897]

hay what paddles are you guys runing ... looks like skatrack 8s but i cant tell for sure.

[TempEdits]

im 15 years old on a 450 i ride at windchester check my vid out on my chanlle me and my friends are getting a ridding team going

[shootem241]

[bomberman650]

Nice shots I would like to see the the whole jump including the landing!

[bajaman98]

cant wait till chrstmas for this

[hicktownredneck]

dunefest 2011 was hella fun this year!

[DJraprider]

Nice Video, i'm not a big rock fan honestly but you did a great job editting that with video clips. I could use the landings and less chroma key coloring, but hey it's better then what i do. I can't get anyone to help shoot video.

I have riden in Florence, OR a couple times, but i live in Vegas so I have started hitting the Dumont Dunes, CA. Dunes are HUGE. Good place for me to work on my jumps.

[Jameysince1990]

Can I get the video with the original sound track...the one with the bring ding ding BRAAAAP!!!!

[davidmishchuk]

I love your videos! They are some of the best videos of the dunes that I have ever seen! Keep up the great work!

[SpartanRacing43]

@davidmishchuk Thank you! We are glad that you enjoy them, hopefully the weather will be nice this summer so we can get some fresh footage for our next video.. Do you ride the Oregon Dunes at all? we are always looking for new people to ride with..

[davidmishchuk]

@SpartanRacing43 Yeah, I ride Winchester Bay alot...really amazing dunes, or at least the best that I have found at this point...i also want to start making a video of my own and am hoping to have something by the time summer is over

[SpartanRacing43]

@davidmishchuk Yeah the winchester bay dunes are our dunes of choice on the coast, but the christmas valley sand dunes in central oregon are our favorite dunes in oregon. That's great to hear that you want to start editing, I look forward to see your first video!

[jerrman29]

@SpartanRacing43 I want to get out there sometime. Have you guys ever been to St. Anthony dunes in Idaho? They are awesome. They have some big hills there. I have a couple videos posted. If you ever go there I'll plan a weekend and we can go tear it up.

[SpartanRacing43]

@jerrman29 The St. Anthony dunes are amazing we have been there twice! you should check out our "Local Heroes St. Anthony Dunes" Vid and our "Oregon Dunes Local Heroes Greatest Hits" Vid, they both have some great shots from us riding at St. Anthony...

[S89317]

@SpartanRacing43 I'm always looking for people to ride with. I live in Portland OR and winchester is my favorite spot but I ride them all. I need a way to get ahold of you guys so we can meet up. I would be willing to shoot you my cell number so we could hook up but I don't want to throw it on here. Are any of you guys on trx450r.org 450 forum????

[MrJeremiah13]

Shut up fagget

[yourgamemaster110]

looks fun i would do that with the banchee in my backyard if i knew where it is even though im only 12 trust me i love to do insane things

[codeman11185]

Lighthouses rule... If you don't like lighthouses, you suck...

[darne253]

I'm goin there next august

[darne253]

that's some crazy shit

[island400ex]

great vid! 

[TRAILBLAZIN4X44]

Like that new fox gear says.. Live ride forever.. Honor amongest riders

[TRAILBLAZIN4X44]

nice video we have 1 up to I'm learning how to edit what program are you running for video editing? Hustlers Racing inc. I made a rookie video of us but haven't in a few years. Going to coos bay for a guys trip the 4-6 march. So be on the look out for a new video. Great editing though. Im running windows movie maker n adobe elements 6.0.. Lol been a while since I up graded. Check us out on face book jus got up . Hustlers racing inc. keep up the good videos ! Only the strong will ride! HH

[daddyrat]

Wow, great job on the video. Those guys are nuts!

[AC610FREAK]

AwEsOmE ViDeO!! Keep it up!

[pipenasty85]

who sings this song, and what is it thanks

[SpartanRacing43]

@pipenasty85 "Invited" by Signal

[omgpotyay1]

the intro was amazing with skullcandy earphones.

[xygroundzero]

@omgpotyay1

HELL YES IT WAS!!!

[CRAZYTHUMPSTARS]

dude this is an awesome video, good work!

[diypunx]

Why are all the landings cut out? Its kind of irritating.

[SpartanRacing43]

@diypunx The reason the landings are cut off a little is to go better with the speed of the song and also to mix up from the generic riding video. This one was just a test of this type of edit. The newest video that we have on our channel plays out the landings more.. you might like that one better, check it out..

[funnykidinthewoods]

i sit here, knowing your doing this now....AND IT KILLS ME THAT I CANT!

[SpartanRacing43]

@funnykidinthewoods Anyone can do it.. We are just average joe's that love the sport we have been riding since we were all 10 years old and have just slowly progressed over the years. With some practice and dedication everything that we do is easy! Do you ride?

[funnykidinthewoods]

I ride my 2007 300ex and my dads 01 440ex, but i want to be able to go around the country and ride in every terrain with good freinds. I only turned 18 today so i got a ways to go yet.

[SpartanRacing43]

@funnykidinthewoods Nice, those are good quads. See its guys like you that Local Heroes NW is all about. We want to recognize individuals that are driven to excel in their action sport! If you get a chance check out our website. Are you from Oregon? We should ride sometime.

[SpartanRacing43]

@SpartanRacing43 website: localheroesnw com

[funnykidinthewoods]

@SpartanRacing43 no but i plan on moveing that way when im older, im in nw PA

[SpartanRacing43]

@funnykidinthewoods Nice, well we definitely have some great dunes out here and trail riding! How is the riding in PA? what type of riding do you do the most? track? trail? dunes?

[funnykidinthewoods]

trails, aint to many tracks around me, and what tracks there are there just little backyard ones. but the trails are fun when you get bunch people together

[SpartanRacing43]

@funnykidinthewoods Well that great, trails are fun, especially when you have a good group of riders together. Well I hope you keep up with the riding and spread the local hero message, we want to help progress the sport and keep riding areas open for future generations! You can keep up to date with what we are up to on the localheroesnw website. My name is Michael btw, It's good to know the East Coast has some passionate riders!

[grocer3]

@funnykidinthewoods i love the trail at florence

[vinsonshawn]

I love the video editing... What program are you using??? I would love to go ride with you guys. I live in springfield and own an 08 yfz 450. I have been riding the dunes since 2000

[SpartanRacing43]

@vinsonshawn Thank You, glad you liked the vid... I use Adobe Premiere pro. We love riding with new people that would be great. We have a big event planned for the 9th and 10th of October at Winchester Bay. We will most likely be staying in the Discovery Point Resort.. PM if you are interested and I will give you some more details!

[vinsonshawn]

@SpartanRacing43 i am very interested in going riding with you guys i stay there all the time but i tent it though my name is shawn, my wife angie rides a ltz400 and my son brad rides a blaster

[DemarioBros]

Frst 39 secs of crap

Nice vid though

[alexhome89]

Videos would not be possible without or sponsors and those great people who support our wonderful sport! im sorry we wasted 39 seconds of your life.....

[dirtbikeracer24]

sweet editing skills!

[atv140]

i liked the first on better but still nice

[951prerunner]

sweet video

[fiaskola]

them there would not be in 15th place in a race like the Baja 1000 offroad. what they do to a boy of 15 can achieve

[alexhome89]

I wouldn't even be able to do the Baja 500 thats no the type of riding we do, and it actually takes a little more skill than people realize but we never said we are better than anyone, we just love riding and want to share our riding with fellow riders and give them an enjoyable video, i don't know why everyone has to hate on us, we are not saying we are better than anyone i don't know why people assume this.

~Alex

[mjmuleman]

@fiaskola Compaired to your vids these guys are giants and your the ant get a life.......

[fiaskola]

those guys can not do nothing but ramp and drift, it is easy, sorry man but is thrut

[alexhome89]

Did we ever say that it is hard? Yes i feel that it is easy cause i been riding for 15 years, and i enjoy it so i though i would make a video and share it with other people, im not trying to show off or nothing, why you hate in?

[SpartanRacing43]

We will be at Winchester Bay for the dune clean up on April 24th and it would be great if you could join us Fiaskola! are you local?

[fiaskola]

I currently live in Baja, we are practicing for the Baja 250 in March, April we have if we took a little walk to oregon, but I really like most glamis

[SpartanRacing43]

Well we are planning on going to Glamis this year. We should meet up and ride in Glamis! Good luck with the Baja 250, those races are very demanding on the body! Endurance is key I hear!

[Coonak]

Killer vid guys.

Great riding, filming and editing!

5 x stars!

[RemiXcorporations]

Are you guys heading to Florence anytime soon?

We're going down there on the 26th.

[alexhome89]

Probably not, were still rebuilding our bikes, and due to the weather and holidays don't have any trips planned at the moment, but let us know any time you are going and we will see about meeting up, find us on facebook at Oregon State off Road Riders ~Alex

[westalbanystatechamp]

have you guys tried the edge by skat-trak? im curious on how good it is thanks!

[SpartanRacing43]

We have not, but we have heard good things about them. They are supposed to resemble the performance of the ITP Sand Stars. They track straight, but allow you to turn easily without demanding much effort, plus light weight.

[KLoughreyProductions]

As always, I love the intro to your vids.. And very nice jumps! That red Honda 450 with bigger rear tires.. Are those 22's or 23's? How do they slide being so tall with an 8" rim? Seems like the tire would roll over a bit when roosting the hills like y'all do.

[SpartanRacing43]

Thanks, Glad you liked the Vid! Both the YFZ450 and the TRX450r are running 21x12x8 haulers on the rear. They hook up a lot better than most sand tires and offer more an element of extra suspension due to the large side wall. They do like to go straight and turning and spraying takes a little extra effort, but all in all they offer a real smooth ride and a quick positive hook up in the sand!

[KLoughreyProductions]

Excellent thank you.. I was thinking of picking up a set of those for my Banshee but I wasn't quite sure how it would handle. I like the extra suspension you are talking about too haha. Thanks again!

[SpartanRacing43]

No problem... You will definitely be happy with them, if you have any other questions feel free to ask!

[YogaGrandmaFilms]

r u guys a high school team?

[SpartanRacing43]

No, we are in college, but we all wish our high school would have had a racing team! We are just recreational riders that mainly ride the dunes! The spartan part of our name is from our high school mascot that we had in high school though.

[YogaGrandmaFilms]

Were i your high school at

[SpartanRacing43]

The high school we went to was CHS in Corvallis Oregon.

[rcwells200269]

great vid, would be better if less choppy. More fluid motion instead of so much edit. otherwise, fantastic.

[SpartanRacing43]

Thank you.. For our Glamis video we are planning on making it more of a video segment. It will be more fluid, easier to follow, and less choppy editing. It will probably be a month before we are done with it cause our trip for Glamis is the 12th of december. Thank you for your input!

[BIGSEXYNANDO]

yo nice video look me and my boy up!!!!!!!!!

[SpartanRacing43]

Thank you! For updates on our riding trip plans join our facebook group: Oregon State Off-road Riders.. It's a great place to network with us and other local riders!

[Sporticity]

That is awesome, those huge jumps! i would love it if i saw you guys do this while i was here. can't wait til thanksgiving break =]

[DISS42JR]

next week

[Sporticity]

Yup next week. =]

[alexhome89]

Couple questions, first what terrain do you primarily ride on? Second what are you looking to get out of your quad? When it comes to mods are you looking to boost power, or are you looking at everything from suspension to handlbars?

[alexhome89]

Last i would like to know your skill level, how many years you have been riding and what your budget would be to spend on upgrading your 350. I look forward to hearing back from you and i will give you my best opinion on how to make your 350 perform the way you want.

~Alex

[caraddict27]

mostly trails, every year we go twice to the dunes, I've been riding for about 4 years so i'd say a pretty good rider, and about 1000. I want to make it be able to smoke my friends ltz400 with exhaust and k and n

[alexhome89]

Ok, well first i would look into a K&N air filter, foam filters like a uni are good filters i prefer them for the dunes but since your riding mostly trails the K&N is suppose to give more power. Next i would look into exhaust, Full systems do give more power than just a slip on i would recomend HMF or Dr.D. A CDI box will also give you more power, you have to be careful and make sure the new CDI does not affect your fan, sometimes it allows the bikes to get to hot.

[caraddict27]

raptor is air cooled no fan or radiator, anything else? jet kit? scary fast power now? i want to be able to smoke him he is a big time bragger

[alexhome89]

Next i would look into Cams, a set of Hot cams will really help your power, especially top end, These can easily be instaled yourself to help save money, If you look on forums you tube or a service manual you can find step by step instructions on instilation. Next thing you would be looking at High Compression Piston and its starts to get complicated. An easy way to get more torque and acceleration is to lower your front sproket one tooth this will help you get off the line quicker.

[caraddict27]

any websites to recommend? and hows big gun? there is a sale for a big gun kit with full evo exhaust k and n rev box and jet kit for 600?

[alexhome89]

I buy almost everything off ebay, or get stuff from my sponsors, Big Gun makes a good exhaust, personally the exhausts don't have much difference, they are all just cans with packing they just have different screens and spark arrestors. Where is the kit you are looking at? you might be able to save some money buying the stuff individually, Rocky Mountian ATV or Motosport are good sites

[alexhome89]

After any of these mods that affect air intake or motor mods you will need to re-jet, you should actually be jetting for every different place you ride acording to elevation. When it comes to speed, or acceleration, tires can come into play the sizes and weight can have a big affect, this is huge on the dunes.

[caraddict27]

and if i want to look into racing should i get elka shocks?

[alexhome89]

i sent you a message

[Elizabethwishes]

Nope Sorry I don't film and I haven't even road it :\

[Elizabethwishes]

Hey, Where is Banshee Hill??? Don't you have any cool videos of people going up that???

[SpartanRacing43]

It's hard to make banshee hill look exciting on film like it does in real life.. Do you have any suggestions of how to capture it effectively?

[ltz250boy93]

sit in a tree lol jk

[alexhome89]

Dude Briliant!!!

[strosse]

I think if we were able to put on wide angle lenses it would be more exciting. Or shoot from the dune behind banshee hill. Or what about where it bottlenecks in the trees?

[jeeperzr2]

Awesome video guys!!

[desertt67]

you guys always have had incredible videos! keep it up! i keep getting ideas for our end of the year footage movie...

[rockmanatv]

Excellent 5 stars!

[breeekelund]

This is amazing work! You guys have some serious talent

[fiddiesfolife]

SAWEET! we should deff do some filming and riding together!

[SpartanRacing43]

Yeah we should, where do you guys ride out of?

[Burnsomerubba53]

Absolutely amazing video.... however it looks like you used alot of the same clips over and over. Keep up the good work

[SpartanRacing43]

Thank You! I am impressed that you noticed, we had over 800 clips for this video, but started to run out of footage toward the ending, but i hope that it is still enjoyable!

[Burnsomerubba53]

It is definitely still enjoyable. I envy your editing skills lol. Great song too.... I know what band ill be getting next haha

[TREYinGLAMIS]

wonderfull!!!! great work

[alexhome89]

Hey i noticed your title has Glamis, we are planning on going down to glamis the 12th of december and ride for a week while we film for our next video, do you ride glamis all the time, we could meet up while we are down there

~Alex

[TREYinGLAMIS]
