So good.
Loved the stunts, great mix of big air & technical stuff, lots of neat ideas & great executions, you've been an inspiration to us all for many years!

The editing was also pretty good, it wasn't flawless, some clips seemed to have odd choppy angles & frame skips, but other than that, it was really well put together, though I think the editing suffered a bit from the song, as it was really repetitive & kind of tedious, especially near the end. Loved how you back tracked to that one stunt, I thought it was a good idea & well executed, really nice editing overall, though colors were a bit to dull imo.

Holy shit, that was seriously a pleasant watch! Liked every single stunt. Only the stunt at 3:13 made me kinda angry, because I was trying to find a way to land the top for a long time and then I gave up, good job at finding it man! Also good job at landing top of Mugetsu's stunt from Diggin'. Ah man, shortly every single stunt was bloody amazing, probably all of them will stay in my mind - so this is what I call a real solo, seriously man, good bloody job! You're such a legend, had a nice watch, really.

Also about the editing.. It's probably the best editing after vmx's second best of in my opinion, good job JL, you're amazing! Great job, both of you!

Post by: Diaz on August 20, 2013, 03:51:38 PM
I'm speechless, seriously. It was way too amazing and unexpected for me.
Anyway congrats JL for keeping this in secret so well, really.
About the stunting it was 11/10, those bigairs can't be made by anyone but Taz, no question. Liked also the technical stuffs and grinds, the second stunt looked outrageously good, and that 7x grind landed flawlessly is just incredible. Liked especially the opener, 1:53, 2:09, 2:35 and my personal favourite one, 3:20. And the finisher was an absolutely suitable stunt for this solo. Probably the most well-known bigair spot ever, landed by you, not a surprise.
About the editing, top job JL, really enjoyed the pace of the video, everything looked just great.
After seeing Burn's solo I thought it will be really hard to beat. After seeing this one I think it's even harder.

okay after my boner went to sleep cuz of editing i can write another post

terrible editing, no anti aliasing JL what the hell, all those weird speedup's/cuts/radial blur made it even worse than burns technical damage imo.
BUT THAT 2ND STUNT HOLY SHIT

also, where is jl's guest stunt? hes listed in outro for that

The stunts were fucking fantastic as expected, but the editing kind of ruined the experience of watching it. While generally some of the ideas were really nice and professional, they were executed
poorly and pretty much everything in the editing (and some of the recording) was unpolished. The pan/crops, the speed-up effects, the Parkinsons cam angles were all things that I believe
would get anyone to just creampie themselves in the ass automatically if you had just made them perfect or at least more acceptable looking.

And just throwing my crappy opinion out there, I think the music choice was pretty horrible. I was listening to the same damn 4-seconds looped sound for 5 minutes long, it's like I'm hypnotized.

- 3 old stunts
- SSU lost many spots and 1 stunt (SF dome, big FUCK YOU for that) :jajaja:
- Colors

+/- Song
+/- Editing

+ LV curb bump wallie 2 grind
+ Overall effort


I'd like to see all the replays. A download link would be much appreciated too. Was the ledge grind combo done with FL on? And shame on you JL for going with such a bad render in the end. What FPS did you record at btw?

I'll have a download link up tomorrow evening...
i had some really bad trouble with rendering (think i told you about that on skype before), because the final render got fucked by accidentally leaving the audio master on -30 dB. however though, we finally wanted the video out and it had to be today so i couldn't re-do the 7,5 hour full render and had to make a compromise with mr. quality. :euro:

i'll provide a version with better quality though. promised :jajaja:

i recorded somewhere between 10-15 fps using no sync (fraps 2.9.8). videos that are made on my computer are bound not be able to keep up with daffy-mode-quality.... ^^ you know im on a single core cpu

I'll say 9/10 as a whole. Great job guys :D

Post by: Sava on August 20, 2013, 06:13:59 PM
MMM best SA stunter of all time xD

When I saw the topic I was like 'Meh this is JL's cancelled version of the United solo', but as soon as I saw the opener, I knew that this is going to be some next level shit.
I don't even know what to say about your stunts, you always had the perfect mixture of technical and bigair stunts and I'm really glad that this video wasn't any different. Knowing that you landed the opener, the freeway ledgegrind combo and the finisher, you have to be either the luckiest or the most dedicated person I've seen on GTAS. There were a few oldies but I just guess that you lost them while it was being edited and I understand that you didn't switch them with new stunts. You have been my biggest idol on GTAS along with TurtleDick and I want to thank you for that, I just wish you didn't abandon the whole GTAS community because of all the accusations and would post here more often.
Talking about the editing, I'll start with the 2 negative points first. 1. You spoiled the finisher way to early imo which ruined the experience a bit (it was obvious what he would land) and 2. The quality of the video was rather bad.But aside from that, this editing was ridiculously good and fitted the song perfectly. The whole transitions made it so dynamic which also fits Taz stunting style. You have been one of my favourite editors in SA since I watched 'Watch This!' and you have proven, once again, why that is. The soundtrack was also pretty badass    (Thanks for not using Criss Angel again :lol: ).

This video is awesome, I just want to say 'Thank You' to both of you for doing this.

God damnit, this feels like a 2008 video with bad quality and annoyingly close angles and terrible free-cam. Other than that (and the fact that every single stunt had a zoom in that almost made me see CJ's dick) it was an ok editing.

Also quite impressed by most of the stunts. Not something I'd expect from someone who disappared from every where for quite a while.

Edit: thanks for not using united shit, it turned out much better

Post by: VeganeBrodwärschd on August 20, 2013, 08:55:18 PM
OUT OF FUCKIN NOWHERE A TAZ SOLO!

The stunts really felt like a huge step forward compared to Watch this!. At least, they have had a much higher shock potential to me, than Watch This! had. There are too many stunts that stand out on their own.

The editing I thought was really great, especially the camera work was fresh (it the sense that it felt as something innovative and new), consistent and supportive of each stunt. Of course, you suffered a great deal of quality and some of the movements were shaky but overall it was decently pulled off. Great soundtrack by the way.

All in all, this is gonna be a close vote between Technical Damage and Watch this, Two! as Best SA Video of the year. At least for me

I woke up for work and watched this on my phone because BeaT had sent me a message. Needless to say I am now awake. :P


That freeway grind has to be the best SA stunt I've ever seen, absolutely insane. The others were killer too obviously! Takes a lot of dedication to land all of those old spots. Bet a lot of those stunts had at least a few weeks on them.

10/10 Best video since AOA


Damnit now I wanna stunt again :P


EDIT: Great job to JL as well, thought it was fantastic and pretty closely resembled his first solo. :)

The video was just awesome. I don't know why are guys bitching about the editing and cam engles. In my eye they were just great and made me concentrated all the time, although I was drunk as fuck while I watched it first time. I have nothing to say about the stunts, I can't even pick my favorite. I am glad I have finally seen the finisher landed.  And guys I can barely imagine how do you expect a "perfect" video, because really if you have something to say against this video, you will be probably completely insane. Great job Taz and JL as well! Thanks for such a great watch!  :wub:

I don't think there will be in the near future a better stunting solo at least bigair stuntingwise. I even lost some spots like the freeway grind that i already landed and the LS Stunt near ammo. And good job JL at the editing, i can't understand why some people dislike it. Ur a great editor JL the colors and everything were just perfect.
And seriously the cam angles are godlike. Even with a single core u managed to Edit it pretty sick. And some people should respect the hard work on this masterpiece. Ur for me clearly the editor for the year.

Amazing stunting Taz. Song was not my cup of tea tbh but as Red said, it fit nicely to the energy of the vid  :ajaja: Editing was nicely done but good cam angles were a bit lacking. Freeway combo grind is easily the most amazing thing I've ever seen in SA.  :ajaja:

As previously mentioned, I also thought that it is a joke. I have also always admired your stunts.
You've landed great big air stuff in recent years, many of these people would not even try, because they seem close to impossible. But when you reached a perfection with which it is possible to land the things almost no one creates. Then you are truly a legend. I'm sure that you haven't even done all the stunts within a year. I really like your versatility. Your stunts and ideas were all impressive. I hope to see more of you from now on again. :)

Visited GTAS to take a break from work and... HOLY SHIT. Too many awesome stunts in one video, the standard was amazing. The natural bump to roof by Vinewood was great, the freeway grind was INSANE (execution was flawless), the double bump to precision was very nice, I loved the SF dome landing, and that finisher... simply incredible. You had some other really nice stunts like the wallride to precision, and Juan's double bump to the top. A few weak/old stunts, but seriously, epic video.

The editing was good, but I don't think it lived up to the quality of the original. It seemed a little rushed, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Overall, this was a fantastic video, definitely one of the top three solos ever made :D
Title: Re: Watch This, Two!
Post by: bLADE on August 21, 2013, 02:43:28 PM
Crazy stunts. Some of them looked impossible but so did the Avalanche finisher and the navalbase p2b and they were proven possible. Freeway grinds were epic, the last 4 grinds were really smooth. Stunt of the year for now. So overall.. just awesome.

No way, this is not NOT going to be the Solo of the year. This is the best solo of all time. JL did yet again, an amazing editting. The stunts were really good. I loved 0:28, 2:05 and 4:08 the most. Amazing video. Good job on this masterpiece.

Lost 1 spot which is 2:45. But omg man.

There are so many comments I can throw here but there is one that HAS to be done:

Title: Re: Watch This, Two!
Post by: JL on August 22, 2013, 04:33:07 AM
first off, thanks to everybody who commented on this. i'm very glad to see that surprising you guys with this worked out and am even more glad to read that most of you enjoyed the editing.

as for those who don't; i definitly consider your words and respect them, too. a big issue for those who dislike seem to be my use of freecam angles. i'll have you know that i was going for some kind of "amateur-ish handheld" effect and actually increased the unstable way the camera moves in those freecam clips.

reason for that was my inability to actually make it perfectly smooth. in the beginning of the editing process i was acutally going for smooth movements, but no matter how hard i tried, you were always able to see that it wasn't smooth (rather looked tryhard). so i dealt with it and tried to make the best out of it. hope you guys understand.


tatz :ninja:

you know i've basically been on skype with you when you landed each of these stunts and i've tried my best to actually respond accordingly to how good they are, but i always feel like you never took my words serious.

so here's a full review you have to deal with;

01 opener
renember landing this at 9 AM? ... me too :lol: still renember that like yesterday. and for the stunt itself i'm still lacking words to express, propably because i have no experience in landing bigairs myself (ever). and now the fucking precision...

02 wallkick to grind
sexy as hell with that flawless execution and funny because you almost squashed the hot dog guy :lol: also a pain in the ass to record and edit. you've seen the testrenders :lol:

03 precision MTB stoopie
the most unique spot i've ever seen for a mtb stoppie and i'm quite sure the execution is as good as it gets.

04 double grind to adult swim
i'm so glad we used this one. :) pretty sure it's old, yeah, but the execution is perfect. 'nuff said.

05 LS fuckbump
ridiculous runup and extremely annoying ledge to bump. due to the level of difficulty this stunt deserved all the attention it got with it's place in the video imo. in itself it's just a plain bump 2 roof, but it's iconic for the shit you usually land.

06 bump to krail to (downstairs)grind
perfect execution. we both know it's a "filler", but once again; perfect execution. i love it

07 times freeway grind
you were (and still are) way too modest about this stunt. the first time i saw the replay of this stunt i went through the "seven levels of awe" :lol:. imagine it like this: i'm sitting hear watching it and with each additional grind my grin gets wider and wider until i broke my fucking face on the seventh one when i realized you just grinded ALL the roofs...  :L

08 wallride to vert.bump to precision
not even sure how to name this stunt man :lol: once again a perfectly unique spot and the execution is totally fine. surely adds to the video as a whole.

09 doublebump to watertank
FINALLY :lol: got the fucking creeps about losing it when i saw scavenger going for the same precision. it's perfect as it is and i love watching it. kinda regret not giving it another angle in the video, but too late now anyway :P

10 grind to 360°wheelie to grind
fuck you sheeptea :lol: everytime i used a grind challenge in the SASL i was afraid of somebody coming up with that stunt ... luckily, sheeptea's stunt was entirely different and this stunt remained kinda fresh. the execution is once again flawless and i'd love to see more of these kind by you in the future :wub:

11 double bump to circle roof
it's perfect and i love it. also love the way you trolled me by disguising the replay as something else :lol:
iconic for your stunting once again... keep em coming! bonus: reverse watch this opener runup x))

12 dropbump to krailed yellow rail grind
once upon a time, there was a grind that has been done in almost any way imagineable. then you came along...

13 infernus flip (krail?) to double grind
i think people have release two other executions of this stunt while we made this video. i don't mind that since both of them we're different to your version and i think yours is the best of them. :)

14 dome top landing
quite a refreshing stunt to me and different to the "usual" big air approach of yours. inspiring in the sense of "there's always a way to get it done". i just love it...

15 chiliad bump
now if anybody else is actually reading this big ass post ( :P ); this stunt is in the video because it was originally meant to be in this video and i hope nobody minds that it got yet another showing in this video.
personally, this stunt impressed be beyond belief. this is one went straight into the history of big air stunts and rightfully so.

16 infernus thing
though you tried to explain the execution, i still don't understand how you pulled off this stunt. seriously :lol:
well, i don't know jackshit about infernus stunting. but i know how high the roof you landed is and how bitchy could be. flawless execution and another one i love.

17 casino sign
i'd get banned for offensive posting, if i were to express how much i love this fucking stunt.


On a further note, i'd like to thank you for your faith in my editing, actually letting me edit it and being the person you are. deg er en kjempeflott MF. Have a few of these: :wub:

Woah thanks JL... I'm really glad we got in touch again and it was incredible to make another stunt video with you. It's been almost six years since Watch This! (.... :| ) and I honestly never expected to get the chance again... We both put a lot into this video and despite some quick decisions in the end I am so happy we managed to finish.

The review is making me blush a little bit :wub: it was so warm and I want you to know that your input helped me a lot. I know I'm not the best at giving or receiving compliments but you are more than "just" the editor of this video.

Thanks to everyone else for the comments... I'm flattered and it's a big plus to read so many positive takes on the video. (burn you are so cute <3)

Regarding the stunts... close to half the spots in the video go back to 08/09 for me and it's unfortunate a few people lost some of them. I'm not entirely sure which ones are old except for a couple... however I wanted to use them anyway. And for anyone who feel they have reason to see a replay, drop me a PM.

Sorry but this is just so modded and who doesnt see it is an idiot.

To not be the negative prick, great video though, the edit wasnt perfect but it was okay and the music choice was alright. I dont mind modding anymore, just a shame you had such gread grinds and stunts and had to put those modded big airs in. Still enjoyed the video tho, one of the best videos i have seen this year. Shame the mods but w/e, i would have to laugh so hard if this wins the best unmodded video of 2013 :lol:

Wait a minute. This video is great and i enjoyed it, but lets face the truth. There are better edited videos even though this one is above average, better music choices which fit a stunt video better. Not mentioning the stunts because some of them were outstanding (freeway grind, SF double bump) but some of them were also modded which is a big minus, since stunting is mostly about the stunts (or used to be). This is up to everyones taste but i can hardly understand people calling it best solo ever made, not even close to best stunting video of all time. You guys are kind to him but it sounds more like a joke to me.

Avalanche finisher and the navalbase p2b and they were proven possible.

I dont want to start a flame war or anything, but its just incredible how people believe in this. Not completely sure about the naval base stunt but the Avalanche finisher has never been landed again for a reason. Its not possible and youre just lying to yourself there man.

Both of them were relanded by a lot of guys. For Avalanche's finisher I remember Hachiro, Instel, and some other guys landing it. And for the navalbase stunt aswell, Eddeman, Ode / Delfy, and some other guys. Everyone who tried could tell you that it is more than possible to reach the base. With that runup, that speed, and a great bump, you get it.

That is funny since Delfy & Hachiro also modded. But I gotta admit the Naval base stunt is possible and as i mentioned in the first post.

Even if i had GTA installed and could see the replays, it wouldnt prove anything, the avaiability of programms that can mod the game (handling, roche method, etc.) is so huge that its almost impossible to spot a well modded stunt. You dont have to agree with me, i said my opinion, isnt that what this topic is for? There are many things you cant 100% prove but everyone knows about them, and skilled modding is one of them. First negative reaction and you just have to reply, like i just said the video was completely shit, which is absolutely didnt. You probably believe its clean and Taz has been clean his whole "stunting career", but only himself knows how it truly is. Who cares though, right? After all he wouldnt be the only one WH modder.

As for the point me not landing any stunts - da fuq man? I stopped stunting maybe even 3 years ago. I wasnt really shining as a stunter but im satisfied with me being a part of ESU (only some people will know what crew that is or am i wrong?) and being a part of around 20 videos of whose half is not on YT anymore since FlatHead deleted them from his channel. But how does it actually matter, ive been doing mostly big air stunts and stunting for time long enough to spot an impossible spot. And ive also tried to modify my handling and i can tell you nobody would ever spot that if you dont add 50 speed.

I dont know why youre so angry about me saying that, i enjoyed the vid, why would i not enjoy a video just because its modded, every 2nd is nowadays. You tell me to remain silent if i dont have any proof and then you just post something like your last post? Temper temper?

Taz can land these stunt because he spend a lot of time on them. It took years for him to make a new solo. All these big airs are truely possible to land if you get a perfect rad with a perfect bump. Just learn how to land big airs, it's not easier than technical spots, it's just different.

As he said, you can ask him for replays, so if you want to see something, he has nothing to hide, ask him !

After that, please stop, you said your opinon, that's okay, but gtastunting doesn't need another new modding war  ;)

Keep your shitty beliefs to yourself man. Just because you cannot deal with the idea of landing those stunts un-modded doesn't mean others can't. Seriously man; take your shit and get out of here. It's fucking spam.

Thanks for a normal reply to my post! Good point there beat aswell, though im not a "half stunter", my point of view is no different than anyone elses, ive been stunting long enough to be able to judge that. Just because i havent done it for a long time is not a handicap. You should treat me as a regular opinion because i used to be an actual stunter. To be honest, there are others i havent seen any stuff from, but thats a different story. I will stop commenting on what i said earlier because you dont want me to and i said everything i wanted.

Can i get the replays tho? I dont think i can see anything there but if Taz doesnt mind, would be great to take a look at.

And JL please stop being such a childish hypocrite. Spam are your posts, you dont even know what spam is. I dont know who you are, but ive made a pretty i accurate picture of it. So be so kind and stop the nerd rage, thank you.

edit/ this might be a really dumb question, and im not sure if i wont make an idiot of myself right there, but was JL a member before he created this account in 2012 (because i believe ive heard his name before) - some kind of a veteran? Because if not its even funnier that hes trying to humiliate me right there.

edit nr2./ If i get the replays im going to watch them, there is no possible way to prove he is or isnt modding anyway, unless it being played on a clean new GTA and filmed with a camera. But who gives a crap about doing that, noone would do it to prove to 1-5 people that hes clean, if the rest is just going to trust him.

even darkstar couldnt get it man

@damster, JL is a veteran, he was stunting back in 06/07 as darkslide, he edited taz's watch this 1, he was using those hairgels that got labeled as toxic in 2008

Man, when even fucking Shadowsniper doesn't mention a thing about any of the stunts being even slightly fishy & you bust in like some fucking pro stunting analysist with 10 years of experience in the field, that just fucking speaks levels... Give me the fucking reasoning behind your assumptions. All the stunts are poss, in what way do they look modded? Like, where's the float? Where's the speed boost? Please fucking enlighten us poor idiots who are so wrong oh mighty martyr!

Im really sorry it sounds like that. I mustve sounded like that, but what i actually expressed was just my opinion which is not based on any facts, but my experience with stunting and knowledge what this community is alike.  But however my first post sounded rude or me "being a stunt analyst" believe me i was writing it for a few minutes to make it look the least like that. Now ask yourself - did RochePeach stunts look fishy? Did Dans? Did Delfys? I wouldnt be surprised if Taz came out with modding everything a year from now or something.

I dont want to create a modding discussion and none of us wants, so lets stop it right there, please. I came to tell what i did and there is no place to discuss more about this since with nowadays modding techniques there is no possible proof, unless what i edited in my last post.

Shadowsniper was pretty annoying in the past and i believe he is using his brain now. But i have to admit i was surprised he didnt even mention the word "modding".

And if you read carefully, i enjoyed the video! Even though there were IN MY OPINION modded stunts, there were also many great spots with good execution. But i just couldnt lie to myself.

Damster youre not starting a modding-flame-war at all.

What im personally highly pissed about is the fact that your accusation of modding in this video is without any bottom. Youre not making a point at all. All youre saying is "this is modded" - and thats it.

Now personally, thats fine with me. Youre having your own opinion and thats the way its supposed to be.
But those mindless modding accusations are part of what is tearing this community apart. This shit has been going on since like 2007 as far as i can recall and its fucking unhealthy.

And youre definitly trying to piss people off here. Ive seen your comments that you made under the video on youtube where you actually insist that this video is definitly modded and anybody who doesnt see that is an idiot or something. Whatever your wrote down there. Marked that as spam by the way.

If you actually were so kind to point out what your troubles with these stunts are, i might actually go as far as handing out the according replays to you.

But since you, as Determined stated earlier, cant make a single fucking point about anything, everything you said is bullshit.

You might have stunted 10 years ago, but that doesnt appear to make you experienced enough to call anything on this. You dont know about the possibilities of stunting nowadays and you dont know how much effort, sweat and love went into making this video. (nobody knows that around here, but try to imagine: we didnt do this video on a lazy sunday...)

Think about that. Godamit.

Sorry but this is just so modded and who doesnt see it is an idiot.

To not be the negative prick, great video though, the edit wasnt perfect but it was okay and the music choice was alright. I dont mind modding anymore, just a shame you had such gread grinds and stunts and had to put those modded big airs in. Still enjoyed the video tho, one of the best videos i have seen this year. Shame the mods but w/e, i would have to laugh so hard if this wins the best unmodded video of 2013 :lol:

What a truckload of bullshit. Proove your point or remain silent.
If you really think that kind of pointless accusation-posting is okay i'm going to go ahead and call every single stunt you ever landed modded for no reason.
It'd be helpful if Damster actually did any stunts  :lol:
Double that, seems like just another youtube comment from a guy who never actually had any contact with stunting

no offence

Fantastic video guys! Taz, you're fucking crazy!!  ;D Sick ass job landing those big airs, damn epic. One of my favorite SA solos of all time, no doubt! I really, really liked the editing too JL :) If you aimed for an "old-school"- kinda vibe, you really nailed it in my eyes :D

Oh, a sign of intelligent life there! Congratulations, you finally proved you are not what i thought you were!

I mentioned before, I cant show any valid point about the stunts being modded, just because they dont seem that fishy and just because, for the third time, the modding possibilities are so huge atm, that if you spend enough time to mod a stunt, noone will ever see it. Rochepeach, Dan and others are the perfect example of this. I dont actually give a crap, half of the community mods (oh please, now go and hang me) and im completely fine with it as nothing has changed when i was still around and stunting.

I would like you to not think im trying to tear anything apart, thats why im not saying the video sucks or anything. And i truly believe both of you spent hours and hours on this and its understandable, that you are angry if someone says his opinion and its not really positive. (on stunting wise)

The possibilities of stunting dont change. The SA physics have remained the same and there is a limit noone, even Taz, can go beyond. Ever. There are barely any limits in real life, in Minecraft, in whatever but not in SA. Unless you find a new speed method (just an example) the max speed will be the same. Its something different in the really early years of stunting, since RADs has been invented, people began to be able to land spots unlandable before. Im not any stunt proffesional analysis shit but this is pretty clear.

To the problems i have with those stunts. The main problem is i dont think a few of them are possible with the runup avaiable. It reminds me of that old 12 page topic where Shadowsniper claimed to land with FL ON the roof in SF by the sea, the stairs ramp. Just a little little modding put in and here we have a clean looking stunt. Handling is a beautiful thing to play with, you know. Its no gravity mod shit that people used four years ago. There has been some solid proof, that Taz modded his Avalanche finisher (which he IMHO did) and its still hanging somewhere on youtube i think. You shouldnt have problems searching it up if you dont know what im talking about (if you are interested ofc)

If you dont want to give me the replays - i dont care at all and i actually understand that, why would you and Taz give a crap about ONE guy, who is not even stunting and much active anymore, that said you modded your stunts.

Sorry for the YouTube comments, i was being too provocative and went a bit too far. Mark it whatever you want, many people mark negative comments as spam. (edit/ i deleted it myself)

No offence taken Streem, i cant blame people for not remembering me in videos so ... I mostly stunted for myself and my friends anyway, SAMP etc. and as i mentioned i made an audition to ESU and got accepted, still got it in my pc and i was thinking about uploading it, but half of the stunts are old already i guess and i dont think it would be worth the 4+ hours uploading with my pc.

You dont have to reply to me anymore if you dont want to. I said everything i needed (actually in my previous posts already) and you also did.

Thanks everyone... I've felt a little disconnected to it all after we decided to finish but I do appreciate the feedback... some of the comments are a lot to take in.

I've been asked a couple times if I'm gonna stay around... right now I'm not gonna stunt for a while but there are couple of spots I would like to get back to. So I'm hoping to get going again  :)

@hayley w

If you still believe the Avalanche finisher is impossible... then there is a lot you have to catch up on. If you're used to bigger stunts it shouldn't take long to get an attempt where you can sense it is possible... I'm sure some of the guys who are active here can get the roof fairly quick.

Ahah , seriously thought before posting anything .

I feel completly with Damster (?) H.W it's a shame that i never talked to you in the past , we could have been great friend

I think people know you , at least I do , i also know flathead which was a great editor ( tho all those new people and shit doesn't know him ) if you keep contact with him , tell him he still has a fan !

If Taz ever read me , and i hope so.
You've been my legend when i started stunting and i was actually 11 at that time , stunting with friend when back school always talking about Taz and WH during class.
I truly want to thank you for what you made and inspiring us.
It's been a while tho , i'm 17 now and i have left for 3 or 4 years already
I was just coming to see any news on the skinning section then i saw your vid and i was like wow gotta watch it I was a modder back then because i could'n't land all those stunt that you guys were landing.
I don't think that was because i was a bad stunter , because after changing handling it was easily landable. 
I honestly don't think i can land any of your big air stunt in that vid nor in watch this 1 ?
Do i think you're a modder just because i'm not able to land your stunt ?
I don't think i can 100% say that you mod , tho i'll keep on the " i don't know "
But in any way , i respect you and once again thank you for what you made.

Also except you Taz who i do respect , i really think all the others does mod ahah
And  i don't think i'm the only one to think like this .
This said , i wanted to say something about shadowsniper saying it's clean.
That's not odd at all , he has been banned for several years for saying modding and stuff.
Now he has got his place again on gtas and  he is a respected member by a lot of people.
Why would he start all again and say that Taz mod ?

Now i'm done , if you wanna ban me again just do it

i come here so rarely that it doesn't change anything lol

Yeah great someone actually said what he thinks (there were several people, who gave up on this mod forum already, and told me in private).

WH is not the crew that it used to be. It used to be this "best crew", with the famous stunters, the names everyone knew, the videos that always everyone has been waiting for. Its a shame ;p

I dont know what was SS banned for, but i might not just be guessing for spotting someone "famous" modding, haha.

Sorry for another post i just couldnt resist.

Damn, you're so dumb man.

MEEEH WH IS NOT THE SAME, MEEEEH THEY ALL LEFT, MEEEEH I KEEP SAYING THAT MODS IS EVERYWHERE, MEEEEH I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY EVERYONE LEAVE.

The most "famous" guys in WH left because faggots like you were always here to say "modded". + Saying that WH is not the same in the topic of Taz is dumb. Especially when he's actually one of the best "famous" "old" w/e guy. Your weakness makes me laugh and cry at the same time because I know bastards like you are killing this community.

Haha, i didnt expect YOU to rage like that. You are angry because you know what i said is true and get annoyed because you also miss the old times. Everyone does. Old WH members left because they either got bored of the game (most likely) or they moved to VC (guess what, no mods there). I have never said anything was modded in the past because barely anything was, and if it was, it was suspicious to more people. And im not trying to be a negative jerk, you just fail to notice with your anger blindness, and only see the negative in my posts. You noticed you didnt say "thanks for saying the Freeway grind was awesome, and that Taz had many great technical stuff beside the big airs", but you catch every single word i say to screw it over and make me look like SS 3 years ago. I never thought Id say that but he was right at one point. You cannot kill something that has been nearly dead for a long time anyway.

But you are right there, i went too much off topic with the WH thingy.

So Im stopping the offtopic right there. For your own safety, dont reply to me with another post saying how dumb i am and how im tearing this community apart. Its been enough of it and for gods sake, if you want to humiliate me over the internet, do it via PM.

It's funny how everybody always points at how it was. Not much has changed in the past 8 years that i have been here. You should see it as a job, people get old people retire. New and younger people come in and replace them. I mean when i go out these days there are children out there getting drunk at an age of 15 and me and my friends look at them and we laugh and tell each other... Look at them so young getting drunk, smoking... But we were the same back in those days.

What i'm trying to say is that it is perfectly healthy to have new people around, that's life right ? Things change...

Great job Taz I never expected this ! I wonder how you reacted when you landed some of those stunts, it used to be fun when i heard you bailing a stunt over skype  :lol:

Its not like that, I dont wish anything bad to WH, but if it seems like it i dont mind. If it doesnt matter to you, thats good, because why should it. All that matters is what the crew members actually think of each other and their crew. (no irony)

Lmao, Streem, you said a few pages back I did not land any stunts at all (or +1'd it w/e) and now you come with such bullshit statement. Clear your mind, and figure what you actually think, and what is just something you want to say here to make me look like a dumbass and make you look like a cool badass veteran famous stunter. This is exactly why I said its stupid to bump this topic with something like that again, because there will always be someone to post something so retarded I have the urge to reply to.

If he does - then whatever, the stunts are still an incredible spectacle, and well worth a few minutes to watch.

Who the fuck cares if they are or not? I honestly couldn't give a single shit. If Taz doesn't mod - then ho lee fuk I give him a lot of respect. These stunts were not easy to land, and took more dedication than I ever magine giving to stunt videos.

If he does - then whatever, the stunts are still an incredible spectacle, and well worth a few minutes to watch.
Why can't more people be like you?
Because if they were, everyone would turn into modder.

Someone should warn Damster for all those useless posts and off topics but since there is no moderator here it's going to be hard.

Wow.. there are like only 5 pages of comments about the actual video. The fuck is wrong with you people?

Taz, I love most of your grinds, they're really fluid and complex. This will probably sound cocky but your solo reminds me of mine. 1 awesome freeway stunt, 1 identical mtb combo, similiar technicall stuff, couple of infy stuff here and there, no cabbie boosts. I didn't like the fact that your bigair stunts were age old spots.. but hey, at least they're decreasing in quantity :D

Full review in an hour or so, cause you've earned it.

1 - Had to be done I guess? Everyone knows what I think of normal p2bs.

2 - Simply awesome, maybe my favorite in this. When I saw it I thought to my self.. wait, is this Taz? What a contrast between this one and the previous.

3 - Those are hard to maintain while turning, probably the best spot to do this kind of stuff.

4 - I missed the guest star "Burn" at the bottom of the screen cause this is his favorite type of stunt if I'm not mistaken :P

5 - Had to be done sooner or later, good execution however.

6 - That was kinda weak, I bet it took you minutes to nail it.

7 - And just like that the bar is raised again :O That was straight outta VC, so smooth.

8 - Interesting find, but nothing spectacular. However this seems like one of those stunts that are fun to try but not to watch. Agree?

9 - Finally, a big air I enjoyed a lot. You landed something that others were trying to reach with packers from the same area.

10 - Oh wow, that 360 turn after your bonk made this stunt go from good to great looking.

11 - Had to be done number 3

12 - Bad bad BAD camera work there. Hard stunt, and PROBABLY good looking, but I have no idea since I couldn't see shit.

13 - Have a feeling I've seen this before

14 - Not your best, not your worst. Do I like it? 50/50

15 - Had to be done # 4. I've actually done this in 2009 but lost the rep.

16 - Solid all around. Couldn't be done better.

17 - Hard to be done  :lol: Just like many others i've also tried this. Scratched the top a few times but the spot it self was so frustrating to me that I've forsaken it. So my applause for your dedication here, a worthy finisher.

Sorry, JL, I cba to review your editing.

I was sitting there with a heartrate of 200 bpm, terrified that the next stunt might be the finisher. Loved every last bit of this video so much I didn't want it to end.

Deserving of a 10/10.

I've seen this video a fair few times and haven't bothered to comment so here I go.

That pretty much sums up San Andreas stunting, I doubt there will ever be a better SA solo and I think Taz has landed the final few decent stunts. Kudos Taz, even through all the hate you get you still manage to knock the socks off of everyone.

We're done now, no need to keep stunting in SA, it's all over. :)

People said the exact same thing when MMM released his "best of", and yet Taz managed to pull out this, which is really good.

So yeah, obviously it's a joke.

This is an amazing video in many ways but it's definetely not unbeatable.

Nothing is perfect but for the time being this is the pinnacle of stunting in San Andreas as far as I'm concerned, and I don't see anyone beating this anytime soon.
Unorthodox was also considered unbeatable for quite a while, and though it's been topped most of us would say that it's the best video ever released for that time period which I think can be said about this video too.

Oh well, it sure has been a few years. I just spent a bit of time browsing through this topic for old times sake and get back into them.

Both the release of WT! and WT2! were my most special moments during my activity on the GTAS scene. Not because of the (controversial) impact they had, but rather because i was working on each a special project with somebody who became one of the most important friends in my life. It's always nice to look back at them.

Every time i do read up on them, and with advancing time more and more, i realize that people either love or hate the editings i came up with, but there's barely ever anybody with a neutral stance about them (kinda same for the stunting, but that's a different story, lel).

Now about WT1! i can't really say much. To be perfectly honest, i barely had any idea of what i was doing at the time. It just came out as it did and it well mostly well-received.

WT2! however, had an underlaying theme, a concept - which hopefully serves as an explanation for what people were complaining about in this topic partially.

I was trying to build the entire video/watching experience into something rather "hypnotic". That's why i tried by very best to keep up a good pace without too many stale moments (for example grind sections that feel slow). It's also the reason for why i picked rather dreamy colors. Surely the pink color corrections were noticable. Same goes for the occasional blur etc. and last but not least: the progressive music. Somebody posted that listening to the song felt like "listening to a 4 second loop over and over" (quote may vary) and why yes, that's exactly what it is. It's called progressive music which only evolves slowly, and it was supposed to do exactly that and only unfold itself in the end of the video, to peak at the very last stunt.

Oh boy did some people hate the shaky cam angles that were mixed into the video. :D
They do have a purpose though and in the end i wouldn't wanna see the video without them. The first purpose of them being to give the video a feeling of watching an amateur record some friend of his doing some tricks in a skatepark. That stuff makes 100 % sense to me, because i always considered stunting to be something like skateboarding in a video game... with motocycles and cars instead. The video starts out with the handheld shaky cam angles because of that, because i wanted to try and immerse the viewer into the idea right away. Afterwards i just tried to get a good mix between the former and "regular cams".

The second puporse was *drumroll* ... to put myself into the video. In the video's outro, i'm listed under "guest appearance" because the idea was that i am physically present in game world, to record my mate taz doing his stunts with my purposely shitty camera handling skills. (don't blame taz for this, that was purely my idea x) Further than that, the "guest appearance" thing was also supposed to be small joke/reference to WT1!, since i did have an actual guest stunt in that video.

Well that was a lot of text. It's nice to get this off my back, hope somebody finds this to be somewhat interesting of a read.

Cheers everybody.  :)

i remember i really liked the editing when i first watched this when it was released, the manual free look cameras felt pretty sweet as i did feel them as if it was me looking at the stunt in virtual reality or some shit

pretty crazy looking back how much stunting has improved compared to this video which was groundbreaking back then, and how taz broke GTAS once again with the help of burn haha, wonder if we'll see this happen again in a few years because we all thought stunting couldn't get any better and guess what :P
