Rathy took a quick set on lake Holden one day.
the same day I filmed harley and nicola.
now that harleys and rathys is done.
nicolas next.
and the instructional vids ofcourse.
stay tuned!
Oh someone had to go there. haha I can't wait to see him behind an MB. hopefully Rathy will do a walk through video so I can see what MB is all about. Here in the midwest we don't see many MB's actually I have never seen one to be exact.
Rathy is killing it. The tour is going to be really interesting this year with all these progressive riders, but I still think Rathy will come out on top again.

the owners of nautiques were thinking the same thing lol
basically, i don't think there will be many. You train for the tour on the boat the tour is going to be pulled on or for any contest for that matter. Won't be seeing to many hours on the MB
I am pretty amazed so far with our posters btw!! i know everyone is waiting...
Vest? Lack thereof? Is this what you're referring to?
It's beginning to bum me out that one of my favorite riders seems to have little interest in setting a good example for his legions of young followers in this particular area. It's been said that he's had a couple of sponsor issues - trouble to get a hold of, responsiveness etc. I really don't want to see him go down that road. It's one thing to go out and fool around on a skate or surfboard without a vest, but bs 5's, 9's, and other difficult tricks as seen in that video - it just makes me nervous. I feel the same way when I see incredible snowboarders doing incredible things without a helmet. I guess I am just a nervous nellie.
Could this vid have been shot right before the deal with Xcel was inked? Maybe he had his sponsor in mind to A) not leak it or B) not piss them off wearing a different brand while possibly in negotiations. No one knows, and I think if anything, sponsorship had somewhat of a role in not wearing one as much as it would him wearing something. Strictly my opinion though
Given that Norbert posts his videos, earliest, the next day after they're done rendering I'd say this is a very recent video. The Xcel deal was done months ago.
What amazes me about those TS BS 7's are the body position. It looks like he is pitched over the nose just enough to take a serious fall...somehow he rights his body position on the last spin and pulls it out. I keep having visions of massive falls on that trick.
it hasnt been in the works I just didnt actually have the time to sit down yet and pick a song and edit it.
but it'll come one of these days :]
We shot it at 7 am so I can promise some awesome looking shots with the sunrise and the fog on the lake and everything just came together.
its gonna be a pretty one.
"never falls" I understand he is ridiculously consistent... but the few times he does have a bad crash, he could die (and I mean the chances are a lot greater without a vest). Aaron can do what he wants, Its just dissappointing that someone with that much skill won't lead a better example.
Thank God Chad learned his lesson and is encouraging everyone to wear one everytime.
well at least the no vest bashing is starting to calm down, gotta love when the riding season comes back around people start popping out of there hating shells. great video norbi cant wait for more, if im ever asked that my grades are failing which i probably never will, since they arent, im blaming it on your videos hahahaha

haha hey! thats not fair its not my fault. thanks for watching tho :]
Norbi, your videos are awesome!!!! Thanks for sharing so much cool stuff with us so often!
And Rathy's riding is jaw dropping sick. I give Rathy huge props for getting his name and riding out there so often. Nautique lost a great asset.
Thanks a lot Josh! Feedback is one of the main things that keep me goin so thanks again man.
I can promise the same amount of vids that Ive been putting out.
I still have to edit nicolas vid, I have an odub 2010 mixtape coming up and theres a lot more raw footie up my sleeve :]
have a good one, shred hard and hold tight
take care
Nautique thought long and hard about what to do with an excellent rider who has an unexpectedly low level of professionalism & brand stewardship, and consciously let him go
That off axis toeside 7 at around 1:30 or so is crazy! Sweet vid Norbi! like always. What do you do for color correction in your PP part of editing, the blues and greens seem to really jump out. keep the vids comin, can't wait to see the Nicola one you're workin on.
