my Version of a Skater Dolly: RADIATUS !!!

holy frizizzle...

my question is what would oyu use on rough surfaces? or just say screw it and use a glide cam?
 
LOL!!!

It’s the same when I ask you - what would you use under stormy conditions. Definitely not a glide cam! Right? It’s not made for those conditions. Any tool has his limitation. But back to your question. Rough surfaces? 2 C-Stands, 2 levelling-supports and a plate or take a flat door or… :beer:

Greetings!
 
Very eloquent design and execution!

Very eloquent design and execution!

Not only is it functional but it looks cool too! It looks like something Apple would design if they made dollys. BRAVO!!!
 
Thanks!
Hmmm... maybe a new way for Apple. Have to contact Steven (4 some) Jobs. ;) :D
 
First I had to get an account there. It took me a minute to figure out where I had to download it from. Then the file was so huge I wasn't sure for a second if I was actually downloading or not. Then once I got it, the file had some really jerky playback (likely I don't have enough RAM installed). The entire process wasn't as easy as it should have been. But thanks for offering the clip free, in any case!
 
lol….

>>>Then the file was so huge….

Well, what do you think what we offer there? YouTubes? You get all the files in broadcast quality and these files are huge, particularly the HD or HDV files.

>>>…the file had some really jerky playback (likely I don't have enough RAM installed).

Looks like you grab the HDV version. Why, if you don’t really need it? The PAL or NTSC Versions are much smaller and your computer has (hopefully) no problems to play them smoothly – or did other (full) HDV Files with very low compression play smooth on your computer? I don’t think so…

Anyway, have fun with it.
:beer:
 
Hey RWM, absolutely fantastic work. Very inspiring.
Really enjoyed the footage and hope you post more.
Tschüs!

Very good, awesome job!

I have a question, I really don't see why does the skater base have to have that strange shape? I mean, why isn't it symmetrical?

I'm asking this because it's easier to cut, if it has an easier shape.
