A
wesome video I just found on a local news site. I wish I was half as talented…at anything…as this guy is on a bike. Enjoy the video…and the music!
Here’s a heads up on a couple things I’m going to be working on in over the next few weeks. Keep an eye out for a post next week showing how you can control the back-end ordering of request items in an order guide. I’m also hoping to start posting some jelly tips here soon!

ArlenMarky Mark, never knew you liked bit of trials action – Full of surprises ehe?

I did dabble in trials and dirt jumping back in early noughties but balance and stability is not one of my strong suites so I just stuck to downhill and freeride
Great video!

OlivierNot sure if you can access it outside the UK, but this video was part of a program displayed in the UK on Chanel 4: http://www.channel4.com/programmes/concrete-circus/4od.
Might be available from here too: http://www.channel4.com/programmes/concrete-circus/articles/the-films
These films are featured in Concrete Circus. The stunts in them were carried out by experts in a controlled environment and there were safeguards in place.
For example, for the fire stunts in Storm Origins, Blue wears a cooling protective layer beneath his jeans.
The film-makers had permission to film in all the locations you see. Thorough risk assessments were carried out and all stunts were performed under the supervision and instruction of a stunt co-ordinator.
