1:55 was the obvious stand out, great work on that! Don't think I ever even considered landing on those things but apparently a taxi fits on there. I'll have a look around town  :jajaja: I liked that grind in LC where you jumped to the right a lot as well. And that use of a CSM to get to the BB grind, nice idea  :cc_detective: Not a fan of the pretty effortless looking editing but the music was nice and the camera angles showed the ideas well.

The opener, the electric tower landing and those pole boost stunts were brilliant, this is probably my favorite taxi-only stunt video, I'm truly amazed!
Pretty much what i was gonnq say.... love it  :wub:

fuck tricks

well that was different, the small boosts, the reverse stuff, the light poles boosts and the opener made the video unique. I dislike short car grinds but still, its not ordinary :P

Good shit my man, some very funky enjoyable stunts in there. Personally I liked the SAiVC turbine boost thing, looked so stylish but pretty much everything was dope  :ajaja:

Borgnines aren't yellow you know... :unsure:

Your videos are always great, you always manage to come up with some cool new ideas and the executions are mostly perfect.

And that electric tower landing was sweet :wub:

Sweet stuff!
Had to watch it without sound but was still great nonetheless
Neat ideas, the light pole boosts and grinds were great
And the electrical tower stent obviously!
Good job :P

Great stuff, loved the variety and the different types of spots in this, highly enjoyable and has your distinctive vibe and a fantastic soundtrack to accompany it.

Alongside the awesome electric tower prec, I also loved the pole bump-boost to BB, a lot due to the awesome execution and some others.

Really enjoyable video man, very liked those light pole boosts, LC electric tower prec, VC backwards triple boost with Zebra and spin boost to prec on BB with Taxi. Opener was good, but other grinds weren't cool for me, sry. Finisher is old as i remember. Also liked that all stunts were done without rollboosts, oldschool theme, good job!
Editing and soundtrack were perfect. :a-cheer:

Shouted at 2:55, and enjoyed every single stunt here, 0:55 could be prec upon that terrace imo.

You wouldn't even spot the difference in 90% of the stunts in this video, if not in every stunt shown here. There isn't a solid difference in the height you can get apart from rolling being more consistent when it comes to supplying inputs when the game can handle them.

I just mod my taxi and use mass 20

Most of the bb grinds couldve been executed better, or they would have wow-er effect if you landed on the bb or boosted from them to continue the combo  :cc_detective:

Overall its something different, honestly I expected wallboosts only, but the variety really got me to want to see the next stunt in the video. Great job, and good to see you guys still active and going!

I don't understand fully what do you mean, but i know that for stunts like Xtramus did, you can use button or mswheel and there is no difference in the height. When i wrote my post, i more had in mind that it's more interesting to see those boosts, compared to simple high rollboosts to roof for example..

Thanks for all the nice comments! I've gotten more into this kind of taxi stunting with all the rollboosting going on, which I personally think is pretty shit tbh but to each their own. The boost function can be used for so much more though, so I had a blast doing these stunts. Particularly the fact that the combo stuff requires much more input than just mashing the boost button like a madman, which just makes it a more enjoyable way of stunting for me. If I succeeded in capturing that in that video then I'm fully content - and going by the comments that went pretty well.

So thanks, and I hope to see more taxi stunting like this from others too! :)

Of course most of them are far more interesting than simple high roofs, but jumping down from a roof onto a burger falls in the same boring category for me. I really enjoyed this video, don't mistake my words, but all these rollboost claims left, right and center annoy me. RedX has been using normal button mashing boosting since forever and has gotten massive height off of really tiny walls. I could show you lots of stunts and you wouldn't be able to tell if they had been done using rollboosting or doing it the regular way. That includes simple high roofs. I rarely ever land a 'big' roof unless the boost to get there is somewhat stylish, but even on my 50ft boost2precs people give me shit for using my mouse when it makes absolutely no difference at all. I'm not magically going to fly up 1000ft, this is not SA. You could've just said that you liked the video because it was not focused on just landing high places but instead you took a dump on people's effort without knowing you're wrong.

Yeah, i could say like this, my bad (it's because of my bad english). But please don't think that i hate rollboosting, i don't care if stunt was landed with button or mouse wheel, i more rate the idea and execution of the stunt. I wrote not correctly in my first post, i'm sorry.
P.S. Anyway, i think that rollboosting give the advantage in boosting and some spots are not possible to land without rollboost.

I think it's clear which stunt I liked the most.  :P amazing landing on that precision man. I liked it alot , it's great to have guys like you who show variety with creative ideas when most of the rest of gtas is more concentrated on bigairs, crazy double grinds ecc.

Damn this was great! That electricity tower stunt stands among the best VC taxi stunts ever landed. Some of the grinds were very good, and I liked some of the unorthodox combos on display. I think that you could have snipped away some of the more basic stunts and replaced them with more unique concepts; they didn't stand up against the rest of the stunts. I wanted to download this video properly, but the links were dead, so I downloaded it from Vimeo instead :euro:. Good job man.
