Nice job, very impressive

srh00z 08-08-2008 7:36 AM

I like the progression style captures you did of certain tricks. Well done and nice riding.

wakereviews 08-08-2008 7:40 AM

skatehawk11 08-08-2008 7:51 AM

wayz 08-08-2008 9:02 AM

Cool video. Nice work!

mikel_j 08-08-2008 9:06 AM

Thanks for the kind words everyone! <BR> <BR>I used Final Cut for the editing and did the finish and effects on Avid DS. Oh, and the camera is a Sony PMW-EX1.

downfortheride 08-08-2008 9:08 AM

Way to throw down! Nothing like a BS 180 over some stationary objects. Post up anytime, keep em coming!

andy13 08-08-2008 9:16 AM

innov8 08-08-2008 9:20 AM

Very well done Mikel, thanks for sharing I enjoyed that!!

norcalbordr 08-08-2008 9:22 AM

sick editing. I really like the sequence shots

radikal 08-08-2008 9:26 AM

hahaha i love the pistol shots on PWC !!!

nickbot 08-08-2008 9:39 AM

sweeeeeet!!! what song is that??

wakeboarddrumma 08-08-2008 9:50 AM

Nickbot, <BR>Paper Planes-MIA <BR> <BR>Sick video. The editing was pretty awesome. Good Job.

stoked_32 08-08-2008 9:54 AM

that was ridiculous!! the comedy elements worked really well with your editing... you should make a full length video... very well done... congrats...

watersnake 08-08-2008 10:45 AM

Nice work, put out some more vids to watch!

helinut 08-08-2008 11:14 AM

Screw the wakeboarding! I want the Lancair! <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0> Very nice video. Very cool effects.

bbr 08-08-2008 11:32 AM

That was sick bro! The fashion air was the best part; now take it to blind!

bmartin 08-08-2008 11:47 AM

Talented riding and editting! Thanks for posting. <BR> <BR>People are really stepping up the video quality around here. Can't wait til the next one!

eas 08-08-2008 12:02 PM

def what they said....the stills were killer! maybe it's just me but i've never seen that before....excellent job!

jason_ssr 08-08-2008 12:11 PM

haha, Eubanks, I still get out every couple of years to make sure I can still do it. Hope to get out more this summer. <BR> <BR>Mike is the video MASTER! freakin unreal!

malibumike 08-08-2008 12:27 PM

Mike, great video. How do you like the Sony PMW-EX1 camera? I am thinking about getting one but I would like the opinion from someone who has used it.

kyle_m 08-08-2008 12:51 PM

that cid is sck prolly the best one ive seen homemade to date sick riding

mikel_j 08-08-2008 2:02 PM

I have only had the EX1 for a few months and I love it! However if I were still in the market for a camera I would go with the EX3. <BR> <BR>The whole tapeless workflow can be a pain at first but I think I have a grasp on it. Now I just need to figure out how I am gonna archive 70ish gigs worth of media!!

cody_08_lsv 08-08-2008 2:03 PM

the ending with the supra in the frame n then throwin it n the boat just blew my mind... very very sick n that sony camera is making me feel like im there keep it up!

jealous_soul 08-08-2008 2:15 PM

that video quality is stellar. nice job!

loudsubz 08-08-2008 2:15 PM

My fav vid of 2008 thus far. <BR> <BR>Kudos to you mang. <BR> <BR>How much does an HD Video camera cost?

hawk7 08-08-2008 2:20 PM

thats easily one of the best short videos I've seen online. great song, awesome editing, I like the end with the picture frame, I liked the sequence, one thing though is it'd be cool if you timed the sequence shots to the gun shots, but I liked the tuber/jetskier gun shots as well. nice vid.

04outback 08-08-2008 2:30 PM

Impressive.. Love the editing, videography, special effects, AND ESPECIALLY the gunshots during the jet ski invaders.. <BR> <BR>Very talented work.. you really thought through planning all the shots in that.. <BR> <BR>B

ugly 08-08-2008 3:11 PM

Nice work as everyone has said, however it was a little jumpy for me. Great effort though! Only a month of ownership in, I'm sure good things are to come. Keep it up.

lfxstar 08-08-2008 3:58 PM

That was insane!! How did you do that effect at the end?!? Awesome riding and editing

wakeboardern1 08-08-2008 4:48 PM

Depends on what you get Matt. Mine (canon HG10), cost 750 with some accessories off of ebay. Don't know about others. If you're filming wakeboarding though, you want one where you can turn off the autofocus... Wish I had realized that before. Makes tube shots a pain in the arse.

dabell 08-08-2008 4:57 PM

That was a great video along with the editing. Wish I had the time to do that. <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0>

jaybee 08-08-2008 5:55 PM

Absolutely sick video.

jaybee 08-08-2008 6:10 PM

*Hijack* <BR> <BR>Nick - Do you have any videos you can post up? i found your camera for $589 and it comes with: <BR> <BR>• Canon HG10, 40 GB Hard Disk Drive Camcorder With USA Warranty <BR>• 2 Hour Lithium Battery For Canon HG10 <BR>• UV Filter Multi Coated For Canon HG10 <BR>• 1GB Mini SecureDigital (miniSD) Memory Card <BR>• Full Size Deluxe Camera Bag <BR>• Full Size Tripod <BR>• Deluxe Lens Care &amp; Maintenance Package <BR>• LCD Screen Protectors <BR> <BR>Is that a good deal? They actually have just the camera for $389. <BR> <BR>Sorry for thread hijack.

wakeboardern1 08-08-2008 7:00 PM

Gar. Well then, I guess had I waited 5 months to get my camera, I would have gotten it cheaper... Blah. <BR> <BR>That 2 hour battery that it comes with is insane on life. Or maybe I just have an uber batter, because unless I use the screen, I can film all day long and only run down half of the battery. <BR> <BR>And yeah, videos. <BR> <BR>Here's my youtube with some crappy video quality. <BR><a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/GhostSniper116" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/user/GhostSniper116</a> <BR> <BR>And my Vimeo that's being added to regularly now. <BR><a href="http://vimeo.com/user591613/videos" target="_blank">http://vimeo.com/user591613/videos</a> <BR> <BR>*End Hijack on my part...*

2manytoys 08-08-2008 8:00 PM

Is there any way you could possibly film me having sex.... cause I'm sure you could make me look good doing it... that was a sweet vid... post more.

cedarbro 08-08-2008 8:45 PM

That vid it tight bro.

dreamrider 08-08-2008 11:55 PM

that was great. Encore encore

jeffcanary62 08-09-2008 8:53 AM

Sick, i love the ending with the picture frame.

bbking 08-09-2008 10:26 AM

I loved that! The tricks, editing, quality, and that picture frame thing! <BR>This is what I want to be able to do when I'm older (editing/tricks) <BR>I wanna ride baaad now!!!

wakeboardern1 08-09-2008 10:37 AM

That picture frame is mind boggling... The rest has been summed up pretty nicely by everyone else.

weswheels 08-09-2008 7:04 PM

Great job. I need to get a camera bad. Keep it up and lets see some more videos in HD!!

jixxxer 08-09-2008 8:00 PM

Awesome vid, song, riding!!!! Great editing, I love the tubers and jet ski part, that was funny.

spinner_x 08-09-2008 11:09 PM

The ending with the picture frame was sick.

tuffenuff 08-09-2008 11:40 PM

And the Oscar for "BEST EDITING" goes to our man Mikel! Awsome Vid! Good riding too! Thanx for sharing. Looking forward to more stuff.

evank 08-10-2008 7:55 AM

make another video please, that was awesome.

wakeslife 08-10-2008 7:59 AM

Everything just looks so much better in HD. Nice video man.

pearsonville 08-10-2008 8:28 AM

Nice job very impressive... you should send it to the Wake companies and see if you can get some work.... i though it was very artistic.... loved the ending frame... <BR>Aloha Joe

deafgoose 08-10-2008 3:48 PM

Did you go to school to learn how to edit like that? <BR> <BR>I have been playing with Pinnacle Studio 12 and use a Sony HDR-SR10 but I would never come close to the quality of your vids. <BR> <BR>Do you use a tripod in the boat?

jealous_soul 08-10-2008 5:22 PM

John: Be careful. That combo sounds like one from a non legit dealer....they sell you a bunch of accessories you don't need, and you end up paying full price anyway after all is said and done, otherwise they don't ship the camera. The canon HG10 is great though, I have one as well and I'm very pleased with it.

richd 08-10-2008 5:36 PM

Very nice. I picked up an EX1 about 6 weeks ago and haven't had a chance to shoot any wakeboarding with it yet but based on the footage I have shot and your piece I can see it will not disappoint. <BR> <BR>The Sony EX1 features 3 chip - 1/2" inch CMOS imagers coupled to a full manual Fujinon lens. It records full raster 1980X1020 to a special XDCam codec tweaked by the CinaAlta guys (made the cams for Star Wars) and the IQ is just breathtaking. <BR> <BR>It offers both over and undercranking modes as well as time lapse/slow shutter, features I can see Mike put to good use.

wakeboardern1 08-10-2008 6:07 PM

I got mine from a "non legit" dealer on Ebay, got a bunch of extra stuff, and still paid around 450 dollars less than what best buy and the rest of the major electronics stores were asking for at the time. <BR> <BR>If I can afford it, next year I'm going to pick up another HD cam, so that I can film from two different angles at the same time, so I may look into this EX1, since it's video quality is damn near perfect.

jeffcanary62 08-10-2008 6:51 PM

^^Nick you mean so I can film for You.^^ <BR> <BR>These cameras makes my first cannon camera look like a McDonald toy.

pickle311 08-10-2008 6:58 PM

I got a Canon HG10 not long after it was released. I love the camera but I'm scared to bring it out on the boat. <BR>And if you are looking to buy one, go to butterflyphoto dot com, they have great prices and the best customer service I've ever seen. I have bought 3 cameras from them and they are a legit Canon dealer.

jtnz 08-10-2008 7:51 PM

Sick man, that was so awesome, and original. I wanna ride now too.

wakeboardern1 08-10-2008 9:07 PM

The only thing that bugged me about this video was the fact that parts of tricks were skipped over, which, while awesome that it syncs up with the music, I like seeing the ENTIRE trick, but that's just me and I'm slightly insane. <BR> <BR>How's Final Cut? Right now I'm trying to learn the ins and outs of After Effects and using it in tandem with Sony Vegas is not the most efficient/nor effective way of doing things, but I'm curious if you've ever worked with either of those programs.

jaybee 08-11-2008 11:25 AM

Yeah i was kinda curious about final cut but it looks pretty major. i have a background in music and music editing so would that make it any easier?

mikel_j 08-11-2008 12:39 PM

Final Cut is definitely the way to go for editing. It is very powerful and is easy to learn. Although I didn't use after effects for anything it is a great program that compliments Final Cut (or any other editing software) very well. There is nothing I did in this video that couldn't be done in After Effects.

c640947 08-12-2008 9:49 AM

i watched it three times in a row last night. can't give you enough kudos for it. great job.

hawk7 08-12-2008 3:47 PM

you should do this: [<a href="http://wakeworld.com/getarticle.asp?articleid=1815" target="_blank">http://wakeworld.com/getarticle.asp?articleid=1815</a>]

juniorhawk 08-12-2008 4:18 PM

So awesome. <BR> <BR>I'm not sure I can tolerate any new full-length big budget wake videos that aren't filmed &amp; released in HD. It is time. <BR> <BR>Amazing video. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by juniorhawk on August 12, 2008)
