Glentress, Spooky Woods, 11th Dec 2011

GoPro HD footage of our day at Glentress. Jason and Paul in the front on the all mountain bikes and myself on the hardtail, hence the apology for the language at bits but it was very ruff, especially when I am used to a downhill bike. haha! Camera footage is wet at bits but clears up. Footage from Spooky Woods, Super G and few black runs the guys decided to take me on. A few trees down due to a week of very high winds. Still had a great time!

Cheers guys!

downgrade from your norco mate :-(

@siffler1234 Na, this is my hardtail for XC like Glentress. I now have a Trek Session 88 for DH.

Haha, I saw your fork when you picked the bike up over that first tree and said WOW, that things bent to hell! Took me a moment to realize it was just the camera lens playing tricks on me.

Nice vid though, cool to see you riding some rough stuff on a hardtail! There's not many who do and it makes me feel kind of silly for riding hardtail no matter what kind of trail I'm on.

[kirstin181101]

@crazyringo92 Cheers mate. Its a great trail but better for an all mountain bike on the black route. haha!

@kirstin181101 a wee suggestion? rain-x on the outside of the gopro case lens helps a bit. have the same problem FWIW :-)

[kirstin181101]

@gitootside Tried than mate but didn't work very well. Its just one of those things. Cheers for the suggestion.

[kirstin181101]

@BennyMr7000 Cheers mate. It was very wet and slippy but good fun!

[kirstin181101]

@ozbux Its my hardtail, GT Aggressor.

[kirstin181101]

@sketch1sq1 Yip, just the standard GoPro. Its excellent!

[sketch1sq1]

Great vid, are you using just a standard chesty mount as it is very stable?
