Whoa, nice water! You kid is an awesome rider!

However, I advise you to chill with those special effects. The effects at the beginning were overdone, but I wasn't too bothered by it because it didn't interfere with the riding.

The color correction and rewinds during the actual riding shots were really distracting and some of the cuts were pretty jarring. That stuff took my attention away from the riding and made the video look amateurish. Don't be one of those people who thinks it's cool to play with every effect in iMovie. Let your kid's riding do the talking.

Of course, if you're not the one who edited the video then think about bringing it up with whoever did, and more importantly, FEEL FREE TO IGNORE EVERYTHING I SAY. I'm no expert. It's just my opinion as a viewer.

Nah didn't do the edit but I'm really happy with it! Just wanted to share the stoke of my boys riding and his 1st vid. Thanks for the feed back!

So we will probably see him over here in the USA killing it on the pro tour in a few years? Smile

Wow, pretty sweet. Your kid is awesome. I'm years older and nowhere near that good.

I have the Harley as well and I freakin' love it. Everyone who picks it up comments on how light it as (as well as how dope the graphics are). It feels pretty fast, although I don't have much compare it to, and the pop is insane. I can clear the wake with just a tiny cut. My favorite thing about it is that it's so smooth on the surface. Surface B/S 180s and butter slides are a breeze thanks to the four tiny fins, but it will also track really hard when I want to go way out into the flats.

As for the closed toe boots, it really depends on which model you get. My Harley boots are sized 8-10, so people who are a little bigger than my size 8.5-9 foot will fit just fine, but some boots are sized more specifically. If your other rider is within 1-1.5 foot sizes of you, there are plenty of boots out there that should accomodate you both.
