BMX
Crash! is one of those odd puppies that shows nothing but bails. Now myself,
I'd rather see dudes ripping it up and actually landing these tricks, however
it's simply a fact of life that it doesn't work that way especially when you
are hurtling yourself headfirst into obstacles trying to pull off that elusive
trick. So, this disc shows guys coming off their bikes at a great rate of
knots. I enjoyed this disc but certainly not as much as I'd normally enjoy a
bike DVD. It was an odd one in that this disc felt a bit half hearted to me as
none of the slams were truly that bad.
Whilst
I am sure that the falls hurt those involved, there just wasn't enough grunt
involved for me as the view to feel their pain with them. There is one horrid
scene where this guy walks past the screen and casually shows his finger and
it's just been broken and it appears to be broken in more than one direction.
That for me was the gnarliest injury of the whole entire disc. So kids, if you
want to see guys constantly falling off their bikes then this is the disc for
you. For me this disc redeemed itself in it's extras section where you got to
see what was coming up and out in newer Props discs. I just hope that Stomp
have the rights to distribute them all in Australia. In particular there was a
how to disc that looked easy to understand and contained some really neat
lessons that even a half wit like me understood.
I'm
gonna give this one a 6.5/10 as you really should either go hard or go home
and this disc whilst filled with great riders doesn't do what the cover truly
says. However, don't watch this and then go ride, as I reckon that you will
put some sort of jinx on yourself! |
