Inspired Bicycles
Filmed over the period of a few months in and around Edinburgh by Dave Sowerby, this video of Inspired Bicycles team rider Danny MacAskill features probably the best collection of street/street trials riding ever seen.

band of horses=good music
That was really, really good. Even the song was good.
Not to mention the fact that that dude can handle a bicycle better than I can even imagine.

As soon as I see a fish-eye lens, I become disinterested.

I'm disinterested in your comments because you typed fish-eye.
That was great. Although, I can't help imagine the injuries this guy must have suffered over a lifetime of getting that good.

only a true badass can do a flip off a fucking tree.
Jesus christ that song is played out. 1/2 the skate videos out there use it so every sponsor me tape we would get at the shop would have it. UGH.
Parcoeur is much more impressive on a bicycle.
Many years ago I worked as a bicycle courier in Edinburgh. This video brings back a lot of memories for me - the locations, not the tricks, that is. I was too busy trying to stay alive to attempt anything like that...
Pretty good bunny hops.
My mountain bike is shit. It doesn't do any of that stuff. I want his one.
The North Shore in BC is pretty crazy, but that kid is outstanding.
that music is pretty good... for a band of horses.
sick as shit, great find.
tree flip made my shit leave my body.
wow. awesome riding, and great music.

He can ride better than I can walk.

How does this guy do @ the assault course? Like does he just pwn up? or is everyone this good?

It's sad that I get excited whenever I see anything from Scotland on Fazed.
But this was a great video.
The tree flip was fantastic, as were the next two. The bit at Waverley Steps (4:25ish) was great too.

If I hadn't of been watching Nitro Circus I'd probably shit my brains out, but then i realize he's been practicsing this shit for probably as long as I've been alive. That and those bikes are like 2 pounds.

Same thought I had. I kept imagining him screwing up and falling horribly, and then when he didn't, I thought "Well... he probably did, they just didn't film it."
Yes. I wonder how he managed to get rid of all the sk8er bois and tramps that usually congregate in the places he was filming...
It was filmed in Scotland-- so they probably just had a dentist hang out during the shoot. That'll run most Scots off.
HOLY SHIT! THAT MAN IS MY HERO!
I dunno, it seemed edited to elicit a particular response and the judges looked like they were faking it.
^^^
totally agree, all those bystanders judged him way before he showed off his talent

Me too man, me too. At 2:43 thats taken right outside my work.
I also think about 2/ 3rds of the places shown in the video iv ether taken a piss there, slept there or spewed my load there.
I love Edinburgh
So, I'm not crazy for taking my mountain bike to the public skate park!
Band of horses sounds similar to Explosions in the sky.
This man is my hero.
I wonder how many bones he's broken.
All of them?
All of them?

Yes you are. Mountain bikes are for offroad trails. For a skate park you want a trials bike.
shopped

Which is a shame, because it's totally unsuited to a BMX video.

Hey, the gods won't give you the gift of ability until you make a blood sacrifice.

my guess is because it's a pretty good/popular song, but more so because it seems like its probably a good song for editing. after watching it again you notice what a good job they did in putting the clips together, not that i really know a whole lot about that. i enjoyed it quite a bit!

Change happens.
And I don't know that I'd call it emo. It seems to suit the guy anyway. Not all people who are into extreme sports are dumbshit rockers.
That was the first time I heard that song, and I thought it fit really well for his pacing/style.
If this guy made a film side by side with Rodney Mullen, we might just have the best Skate/Bike video ever.
I really don't think old computer hardware is "crap," I was just struggling for a decent title on this one. (And failed.)

Most babies are cute, but when it comes to owls, they basically just want to kill you.

The destruction of bridges seems a lot more highbrow when set to opera.
