The rock-splitting hit was a beauty!

You probably dont care at all but does someone know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account? I stupidly forgot the password. I would love any tricks you can give me.

@James Jameson instablaster =)

[@jamesjameson5530]

@Zahir Dexter thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@jamesjameson5530]

@Zahir Dexter HOLY **** IT ACTUALLY WORKED! I just got access to my IG account details after roughly 30 mins of using the site. Had to pay 15 bucks but for sure worth it :O Thanks so much, you really help me out !

[@zahirdexter8342]

@James Jameson you are welcome =)

That shot at 7:08 of the rock getting kicked up and then broken in half is amazing. Once in a lifetime. Sell it to Someone!

Could you please send some between the hours of 10pm-4am, every other night. Nothing too heavy - just a constant light shower :)

[@bindabru]

Vital Raws with a kiwi bloke commenting are just that much better

[@TeamGambleBMX]

Was gutted to not be able to get up the hill to spectate, so this upload is a perfect consolation!! Excellent footage 🤘

[@shredeasy8580]

Good footage man, like the editing as well must have put a wee bit of effort into this one 🤙

[@carlosceoofredlinequickshift]

At the beginning that guy proper flicked mud in her face haha, great slow mo there 😄

[@jari_freerider3424]

[@MTBTrailMagic]

Wicked vid mate!

[@rokbukejlovic]

i like the color grade

[@mountaingoat2866]

proper DH track that is, rock garden looks rugged, also those conditions are not moist

[@ThePerfectLine]

Anti-moist 🤣

[@nic_actual]

You know its loose when you roost your foot on a dab

[@youtubeaccount9058]

Why would somebody take still images of an event like this anymore? 4k video frames look really good.

[@ThePerfectLine]

Be nice, but it doesn't quite work like that. I shot these videos on Saturday practice and photos on Sunday race day. Same camera, same lens. Different settings. The video was shot on 4K/60/10 bit 4:2:2 to an external recorder. Effective frame size 3840 x 2160 (about 8mp)- 1/50th shutter, except for the slow-mo (1080p/ 1/200+ shutter). This creates motion blur in every frame to maintain the sense of speed. Photos were shot at 5184 x 3888 (20mp) RAW 12bit at upwards of 1/600th shutter this creates a crispy freeze-frame - you get a lot more detail and latitude on Shadow & Highlight adjustment, and over twice the resolution to play within these photos. Also, angles, lens choice, etc vary a lot between what I want to capture on film vs photo. You can't have both at once without compromising the end result of one. You can see the photos from the race here. here www.pinkbike.com/news/video-and-race-report-2021-new-zealand-national-dh-champs.html

Working that suspension

[@snat6299]

Wow!

[@callumdunn6070]

track looks gnarly as fuck!!

[@petebielby7262]

Are you doing a separate crash video too? You must have heaps of footage from practice on Saturday.

[@ThePerfectLine]

That's everything exciting from Saturday, most of the crashes unfolded while I was still shooting above the rock garden - just before Aaron & Charlie fixed it all

[@ThePerfectLine]

I was shooting photos only on race day Sunday

[@uniquerooster85]

man what camera are you using. So nice

[@ThePerfectLine]

Cheers. GH5. Same camera, same lens. Video one day, photos the next: www.pinkbike.com/news/video-and-race-report-2021-new-zealand-national-dh-champs.html

[@antaltieri7154]

What the hell is that? Saw dust over rock piles?

[@will_h10]

What color profile do you use for photos and videos on the GH5?

[@ThePerfectLine]

RAW no profile photos. Standard profile video for this, usually VLog or CineD on production content.

[@will_h10]

@@ThePerfectLine Ok thanks. Awesome video!

these newbs riding with out gloves will learn the hard way eventually. A proper life coach is in order.

[@ThePerfectLine]

🤦 Some of us just prefer riding without gloves. Almost every one of my Go Pro POVS for the last 5 years on this channel is without gloves. Unless it's cold or very sharp rocks around, I don't like gloves. I've had plenty of crashes, broken many bones, never cut my hands open. Not to say it will never happen, but it's also important to feel comfortable on the bike, so you put yourself at less risk of a crash. If I was riding a dirt bike, or motorcycle on the asphalt, of course you would be dumb not to wear gloves. Blenkinsop, the winner of this race, is a World Cup racer, hardly a newb, and he never wears gloves.
