Wasted time on a stunt
« on: May 30, 2015, 01:10:27 AM »
What's the longest amount of time you've ever spent on a stunt?

I feel pretty shit, when I'm still trying my 5+ year old spots, so I got interested about you guys, or am I the only unlucky here? Don't think so.

Maybe my first solo's opener ( 0:27 ) was the most time consuming stunt.. it wasn't a difficult one, but I just couldn't land it less, than 30-40 hours. Funny, because my first stunt in Relentless Christmas 13 ( 0:20 ) was a lot more tricky, but it was done at the 5th try.

 Don't leave me alone.  :euro:

Fuck, didn't know you landed that. Now I have to remove that stunt from a collab and I didn't even nail the top.
Well that's just a fucking great way to start a hungover as fuck day.

On-topic: Fuck the world. Going back to bed.

Believe me, I know how big fucker that spot is.  :jajaja:
+ I lost all the reps from this video, because my HDD crashed back then. Funny, isn't it?

Got a a few spots from 09 and used to try them solidly for a few hours a week until I left around 12 and now I have started trying them again. 

I hate seeing stunts landed that I've been trying to land for years.

Probably my Ultima NRG bridge combo, spent almost two years on this fucker trying it on and off. The very first day I found the spot I bonked over the precision and only been able to get close to it 2 times during these 2 years until I've landed it. Oddly enough, I landed it 10 minutes after landing the MTB combo also from Ultima. :P

Also not to be a bitch MaCi, but the stunt jooker pointed out is almost the same as the one BK landed in one of WH timelimited videos you've been a part of as well, so you should have known it's old by then at least.  :euro:

I think Rod or Eddeman landed this stunt before BK. But yeah, this is another spot.  :P
Funny, I just saw Ultima last week, still one of the best SA videos.  :a-cheer:

Oh, not. https://youtu.be/StbMSJ1fFuw?t=1m57s
E2: Yeah Fighter, just realised it now.  :P

There are some stunts in VC and LC that I have done so many times that it's hard to know how much time I spent on the spots :P

Longest I've spent on a spot without landing it is maybe like... 20-30 hours? I wouldn't know really. If a spot is fun I can spend a lot of time on it without going mental.

There have been A FEW times when I tried a stunt for like 5-8 hours straight, but that was like seven years ago.

Needless to say, I pretty much never did thick grinds after that one, felt like I've filled up my quota of wasted time.
