Black Rock "Fire out of Monkey Mountain" video

A video clip I edited couple weeks ago and put up on YouTube, was featured last week on YourMTB.com

Here's the clip...

http://www.yourmtb.com/video/black_rock_monkey_mountain




It's got footage I shot in May "down in the town" of Falls City while at an Art Festival... had set up an info booth in community center with maps, pictures, and stuff about Black Rock Mountain Bike Area... And during lunch break, walked around with Kaylee in pack and shot some video. The Black Rock footage is mostly from middle of June - starting with Dino leading a train of riders down upper Banzai Downhill, Troy doing HALO drop, Dan Shell flowing the drop, jump, berm on Grannies foot... and various other shots.

Had the concept for this video in mind before even shooting anything. It's usually the footage that gives me idea for how to edit, but this is first time what I wanted to put together dictated what I shot.

Oh yeah, and if you listen when the local rider is coming down the stairs and as he flys out of frame, you can hear Kaylee say "Weeeee!". *chuckle* I end the video with that sound clip too.

Cuz she sums up the whole downhill/freeride scene at Black Rock with that.... "Weeeee!"
