Wicked Wednesday – Running with Reindeer

pyrat — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 10:36:14 +0000

Maybe not that ‘wicked’ but was fun running with the Reindeer last weekend. After the film was taken they got a bit angry and stopped running. I then retreated.

Wicked Wednesday – Evian Babies

pyrat — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 10:52:44 +0000

I really like when the baby grinds the rail on his roller skates. Its interesting to see how far the branding of water has come!

Wicked Wednesday – Jeremy Jones Deeper

pyrat — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 21:05:34 +0000

This snowboarding film coming out next year looks really interesting. Apart from filming, there was no use of helicopters and the riders are hiking their own lines. Alaska is calling!

Wicked Wednesday – Djamolidine Abdujaparov

pyrat — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 10:43:26 +0000

Djamolidine Abdujaparov is one of my childhood heroes. Here we have him crashing in the 1991 Tour De France.

Wicked Wednesday – Bear Grylls

pyrat — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 11:25:59 +0000

The best part of man vs wild has to be the eating of manky stuff. Here we have Bear eating a giant larvae!

Wicked Wednesday – Finnish Disco Dancing

pyrat — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 11:23:59 +0000

This is not a joke, but serious disco dancing from Finland!!

Wicked Wednesday – Audi Q5 Unboxed

I like car adverts, especially ones like these.

Wicked Wednesday – Dreamcatcher

pyrat — Wed, 13 May 2009 09:07:27 +0000

I recently started venturing outdoors to climb instead of at the normal sweaty climbing wall. Its great to climb outside and I like the natural feeling of climbing on rock.

Got a long way to go to hone my technique.

Here is a video of a californian dude, showing us how its done.

Wicked Wednesday – My Friend is a Pro

pyrat — Wed, 06 May 2009 13:26:46 +0000

Funny video taking the piss out of life as a pro freestyle skier. Looks like a lot of footage is from åre in sweden.

Wicked Wednesday – Inspired

pyrat — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 11:00:40 +0000

Danny MacAskill has been at it again, this time with the help of Dave Sowerby (bmx legend, I think he did the film ‘lifestyle’ which had a lot of footage of tranent?).

Some of the stuff is mind blowing, and its great to see all the familiar parts of Edinburgh.

Wicked Wednesday – Morph

RIP Tony Hart.

Wicked Wednesday – Wingsuit Basejumping

pyrat — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 10:18:30 +0000

Im sure a lot of you have seen this before, but this vid bring us up to date with base jumping in Norway.

The troll wall is pretty close to where I live. I think some of the vid is filmed there.

I dont think this is a new sport for me though. Anyone keen?

Wicked Wednesday – Honda FCX Clarity

pyrat — Wed, 17 Dec 2008 15:14:10 +0000

On a slightly different vein from normal. Honda have produced a usable hydrogen fuel cell car. I think that hydrogen fuel cell cars will take off in the next 5 years. Hydrogen is hard to make, like drilling for oil so the same supply network will be required, allowing the car and fuel industry to make the transistion.

Wicked Wednesday – Fonejacker

pyrat — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 10:19:08 +0000

This sort of humour has me in stitches all the time

Wicked Wednesday – Weirs Way

pyrat — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 10:43:55 +0000

I am a big fan of weirs way. Here is an excerpt from one of the classic episodes.

Wicked Wednesday – NO Boarding

pyrat — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 11:46:59 +0000

NoBoarding – the latest craze of the snowboarding world. Apparently its properly difficult. Will it stay, or is it just a fad?

Wicked Wednesday – Budweiser Advert

pyrat — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 10:10:14 +0000

Back in 2000 my friends and I were big fans of the budweiser WASSUP! advert. Its still funny to this day.

Wicked Wednesday – Dan Osman Speed Climber

pyrat — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 12:49:45 +0000

Dan Osman shows us how its done today. Speed free climbing totally mind blowing. RIP Dan.
