9/10 Good job

Review by Omni*

Intro: Simple, plain but effective...ish


Editing:Very nice. Some of the angle changes were a bit much but it showed great synchronization with the song. The effects worked well too.


Stunts:

0:17 - 0:44 : I personally think it's modded. If it isn't I apologize as it is a very high bump to land.
0:45 - 0:52 : Good use of the bus to gain extra height but I don't understand how you get so high with the cabbie, do you have a special method? Because whenever I have boosted madly on a wall it gets about half that height before failing to maintain momentum to keep boosting.
0:53 - 0:59 : It's a good iBSM, although I'm not keen on them and the roof isn't very high.
1:00 - 1:08 : This stunt looks suspicious to me too. I too had the same idea, with the same runup and was hoping to land it for the next XSA vid. If it's un-modded (which it doesn't look like) then well done cus it's tricky with those stairs in the way.
1:09 - 1:15 : I've seen TD do this, but I don't think it was released. Don't look too hard but it was smoothly done.
1:16 - 1:23 : Good rotation but it's an old idea that has been used on other rails so not hugely innovative.
1:24 - 1:34 : Again, looks great but I don't understand how you get that mad height (please enlighten me )
1:35 - 1:42 : An iBSM but this is what they should be used for, as I think that would be the only possible way up their except from a strut bump. Great precision.
1:43 - 1:50 : I find this a weak stunt. Good idea but the idea is old just in a different location.
1:51 - 1:58 : Pretty decent, if it weren't a ledge grind it would be average tho.
1:59 - 2:06 : Never tried these before but this one had to be kinda precise, although these stunts look a bit flukey where it will send you flying.
2:07 - 2:17 : Another one I am slightly suspicious of, but again if it's not modded then it's a huge tank bump.
2:18 - 2:33 : The best stunt in the vid. Nice long stoppie and performed very well.
2:34 - 2:41 : Very random idea, as it was obvious you would get a slow grind when landed but I guess it's pretty difficult to get right. Did you grind down the stair rail at the end too cus it doesn't show it in the vid?
2:42 - 2:45 : Cool little bump. Nothing too hard or great tho.
2:46 - 2:57 : Nice bump 2 grind. I had done this without the krail and was gonna krail/cork it but that wall pisses me off balancing on.
2:58 - 3:05 : Very nice tank bump. Smoothly landed with a backflip too.
3:18 - 3:35 : Very high cab bump but ditto what I said about the others.

Outro: It was just like any other simple outro.

Overall: I enjoyed this vid. You showed great skill in your stunts and JL proved to be a very good editor. Thanks for sharing and I hope you can answer me my questions on the cab stunts

TD re-do it for the fun after, and probably show it to Omni.

Emm arent im wrong, you mean 1:02-1:08 not 1:09-1:15, that second is grind.

Awesome review Omni, big thanks, really much appriciated!

I understand your suspiciousness on some stunts. Ill try to explain the cabbie boosts.

Im originally inspired by JL, when it comes to the bus bonking technique. When I first saw him do it some months ago (he showed me, later they got released in Julkal), I thought it was an awesome method and started trying it out. It didnt take long to understand that this method gave the cabbies in SA much more potencial in my opinion, trying on decent spots, as showed in the video.

When youre bonking the bus right, it gives you a really good angle for boosting on flat walls. I think the bus kinda softens the impact, so it wont "throw" the cabbie away from the wall so fast. Then itll give you more time to boost, which naturally results in more height. I also think the cabbie is increasing its speed upwards when bonking the bus, which also is enchancing the boost. This combined with the good angle, results in good boosts, as youre boosting as fast as you can. Ive been close to breaking my Shift button doing these boosts

The boost with packer support, includes the same things I think. Its about to make the impact when first hitting the wall as soft as possible, and then boosting your keyboard dead

2:34 - 2:41 : Very random idea, as it was obvious you would get a slow grind when landed but I guess it's pretty difficult to get right. Did you grind down the stair rail at the end too cus it doesn't show it in the vid?

Yes I did. JL will render a clip?

Hope I explained it well, and Im glad you enjoyed the video. Also, thanks again for your review, I appriciate it a lot!

The fourth thing you need to know is that not every stunt that dont look possible is modded. Most people expect to see people like Nitzkit, Daffy, Barney or some vet to push limits. But a lot of times that a new stunter pushes limits they are accused of modding for EX: Cdarmy, BoxXx, Shark, and a few others that are breaking through. I will admit that there may be a few of them that mod, but not EVERY ONE. You need to stop denying limits being pushed and people doing what you don't think is possible. This is what stunting is all about and by doing so you are denying stunting its self.

I think I can say as many words as I want but it wont change anything until some one else lands that first stunt. I tried a bit yesterday and got 130ft but I honestly don't have 2 weeks to dedicate to a single stunt.

Taz got the time since he's a workless 40yo fat guy that failed at WoW.

Eh? Yeah I've done that stunt a few times but I don't remember showing anyone, or even saving a rep. Omni's probably thinking of a different stunt.

Cool vid btw.

You showed it on the :X forums.
