Vid needs more Ellie! Woohoo

Thats was a sweet video - I think Chad is going to be a big threat in 2013.

Sweet video but after all the build up for it more than a 5 min vid would have been nice

nice video for sure but nothing incredible especially for all the hype. Too many close up shot and from out far it was in slow mo. We want to see raw speed. I thought we were going to showcase Reedy but also his playground the video didn't even highlight the big jumps out there.

Gota admit I feel the same way - I mean if your going to hype it you got to deliver it! They 'Alessi-ed' this vid.
It seems most people feel the same way. The must be enough footage to re-do it , better music, editing - something that gets you blood pumping! Call it "Reed Titanium"

Love the Vurb videos but this was a big let down compared to Barcia's Platinum

Yeah for sure, I watched it with my 6 year old nephew and he flipped out at that last stretcher jump, style for days

Lotta hype for a 4-1/2 min. vid
And only 2/3 of it wasn't actual riding.

Remember when Reed said the pressure was on Vurb to deliver a better vid than Bam Bam's, not on him?

Guess they cracked.

Nah, not really. It was pretty cool. Remember, BArcia's was just over 3 mins, too, and some people complained about it being just whips the whole time. Huge, ridiculous whips.

I can't wait to see what Dungey pulls out of his bag o' tricks when it's his turn to go platinum. Just how far into the realm of insanity will the Dunge traverse?

There is always one that moans and says they don't like this or they don't like that. Whatever.

Good luck for 2013 Chad. Kill it. Leave nothing on the table.

It was a good vid especially being free and all, like I said much over-hyped, but that video had absolutely nothing for the JB51 platinum... Nothing
