lol It wouldnt seem like it to the normal filmer, but there is alot to learn when filming bmx/skating. the first 15 minutes was a disaster, but i started getting the flow of things...lol lots to learn thanks!

DIY ! lol for about 150 bucks- its freaking wonderful! I bought 24 feet of 3/4 pvc, split it up to two 8ft peices and two 2.5ft peices. I got a peice of 3/4 inch maple and made a 2.5ft by 3 ft rectangle. Made some homemade trucks out of aluminum edging, bought some soft skate wheels- bought hardware- good to go. took about two days to build, everything is square. takes about 30 seconds to set up.
