I need to work on that. Learning how to burn DVD's from my video and edit it. Just takes time to play with it doesn't it.

Not bad but the video seems a little sketchy. Some of the fast forwards just don't feel right and it seems like there are soem hitches.

Its the first video I ever tried to make, first time using adobe premiere, took me an hour and a half just to figure out how to mute the camera sound and get the music to play right.

its summer time by sublime

ya i too just learned premier and a video enhancer is the transitions from the effects window. That would help your video. Theres some pauses in the transitions too so use the razor tool to get that little pause out. Good luck in the future of video production. keep it up

Great first effort! Excellent choice of music, good chocie of shots (I envy the surfing, here in landlocked Alberta it is just not an option). Compressing video for the web with all the background movement in wakeboarding can be tough and that is what caused the "sketchyness" someone mentioned earlier, but I look beyond that and see a cool video!

Thanks for all the feedback. I need a new cam now, and i'm goin to buy an underwater casing.

Ols School the different compression crap is some stuff I need to read more about.

Hey I like your riding but the video editing is kind of weak. You guys a have a ton of potential. Keep up the good riding and try to be more creative with your editing. When you throw in a trick don't just let it play. Set it to the music and start it right as they cut in. Let it play at normal speed and then slow it down during the trick. You can just be as creative as possible with your editing. Make it look cool!
