Days of our Lives - Ep.1 - Ryan Nangle

I haven't posted any videos for quite some time. This is not because I'm not doing anything. University and exams took some time away. Slowly getting clips for newer videos. Be sure to check them out when they are done throughout the summer.

Here is my latest video featuring Ryan Nangle, a talented UK Dirt Jumper. I've been living in UK for around 6.5 years and throughout this period I've never got a chance to film anyone until January 2011. I talked to Ryan Nangle on Facebook, who turned out to be a friendly rider and we went down to film with Blake and Ray Samson, Adam Williams, Danny Pace and Marcel Hunt.

After that filming session, I've talked with Ryan about making a new type of project, which is something a bit more than your usual riding edits and he was interested in taking part. I wanted to show the riders themselves as to who they are and what they do in their daily lives. I went to Ryan's home town, we drove down to get his new forks and then to the jumps for filming some riding.

After the shoot I sent Ryan a few questions to answer about himself and he was up for it. Thanks for that Wink!

Thank you:

Hope you guys will enjoy the first episode and will be looking forward to the next ones!

 The man made do. I figure if you're throwing down a flip whip, you can cut a fork however you please.

 I agree, but why not have the bike shop cut the steer tube and put in the star nut? They gave him 2 free forks I think they could cut them for him

 Sweet! I am a big fan of decade airs. Not very many people throw those down. A decade flip would be crazy...
