Stunting was much better in 06. Nowadays people just stunt for fame

That's not really your attitude though, more a general opinion (and not totally true IMO either).

I mean which stunts do you enjoy more, what do you think is more important; difficulty, style, height etc.

My attitude towards stunting and how it's changed?

At first, I thought I was just eager to be able to show off whatever I was capable of, after going so long on gtaforums watching the SA guys work their magic and me not being able to join in the fun. After I made my first vid (a terrible solo called 'My New Old Playground'), I realised that it was a lot tougher than it looked to be a proper genuine stunter - that it often requires hours and hours of excruciating patience and determination. So I came to respect the stunters on here a lot more.

Over the course of the time I've been on GTAS, I haven't lost respect for the dedication people put into stunting but attitudes are something which have made me disappointed. It's no secret that I don't like Daffy as a stunter due to his sheer determination to be the best no matter what, and especially showing no remorse after what he did to Torque - that's one example of an attitude to stunting which makes me lose some faith in GTAS. Despite that I can easily talk to Daffy on msn and stuff. Initially when I came to GTAS I had thought it was just non-stunters and stunters, but it's a lot more diverse than that. There are those determined to be the best, guys who think being creative in stunting is most important, then there are those who prefer big-air, those who prefer old-school and those who prefer newer methods, those who have altered their stunters so even their sparks and exhaust smoke are unique and those who barely bother to change their stunter skin!

My attitude towards stunting has been affected by the stunters involved. At first it was frightening as a newbie to see what amazing feats folk like ATS were pulling off. Nowadays, while I'm still fairly amazed, it just makes me believe strongly that VC is NOT dried-up despite being several years old. There are still creative and imaginative ideas out there, you just got to look hard enough and then get to work! Ironically, I'm sick to death of stunting right now but that's because personally I'm struggling to have patience putting in so many hours without results. It doesn't mean I've lost respect in stunting, far from it.

My attitude towards how I practice my stunting has largely been unchanged for a long time but I definitely feel differently about my place in stunting in that it has changed around me (of independent of my actions). Can't really define it but the fact that I like to be weird and different in the things I try always helps me keep a fresh and child-like joy in my attitude to stunting

What's your fav crew and why ? (No TMS)

Do you think that you are best SA or VC or maybe both crew ? No bullshit, just YES or NO.

Fav Crew: Uh I don't know anymore , atleast not at the moment.

There's no best crew , every crew has their own way to stunt , just shut up with your "who's the best?" stuff already

Obviously my favourite crew is XSA because it was the crew that kept me excited about stunting and I get along well with a fair chunk of their members, past and present

How good TMS is, or will be or might be is not something I think about when I am landing a stunt, I am playing a videogame at that point. I am having fun

My favourite crew is USS. I don't need a reason.

For your other question - we were the first crew to be able to impress in both San Andreas and Vice City as well, rather than just concentrating on one or the other. Since then, other crews are attempting to do likewise. Nobody is really 'the best', but I think TMS set a landmark in being the first to do it. To me that's something to smile about

There were several reasons. I didn't enjoy stunting in it anymore, I wanted to stunt in VC and thought one game was enough for that time. Now I don't want to get back to SA because I don't like how SA stunting is today (FL off, for example). But mostly because I find VC funnier to stunt in.

New Breed because I like their creative style and ATS because of all their videos. I would've said TMS if I was allowed to though.
