Title: ZeRo - The Wind And The Sun
Post by: ZeRo_ on March 05, 2021, 09:53:26 AM

Hey everyone!

I am thrilled to present my new VC/LC solo! This project has been in the works for quite some time now and also has changed shapes (originally, it was supposed to be a duo) - but the day has finally come to release it. :ajaja:

A little back story: I've been a member of GTAS for 12 years but during that time I only released 3 solos, and since I always sent my best stuff to crew videos, my solos were always kind of, well, mediocre. I was actually satisfied with my previous one, Monsoon - but since it was done using the VCS/LCS maps, I still felt the need to put together a solo in the original maps that I am really proud of, and so this is how this video came to be.

If you pay attention, you'll see that all of these stunts are natural, no secondary vehicle was used (technically, you can spot one but only to help me remove an object), since to me, this is the most appealing style of stunting. I'm happy that I managed to land enough of these stunts to make this video a reality, and I hope you'll have a pleasant time watching it! I've added a review template so if you liked it, please don't hold back! :euro:

I would like to say huge thanks to Max, every MO member, Fckr & Turok.

What a nice surprise this morning, god damn this was thoroughly enjoyable.

Stunts were sexy as fuck. It's hard to pick standouts when the entire video is full of them, but my favourites had to be double curbbump2grind (you'd think that rail would be overdone by now.. but alas), the crazy ledgegrind2bounce2grind near the ice cream building, ALL of the freeway/angel grinds, and the Starfish Island dropbump. Natural everything :wub:

The fact that practically everything was natural was really nice to see! All spots were executed perfectly - from the smooth grinds & natural bumps to the stylish and technical grinds. The only thing that I could ask more from this video would be a guest stunt from Max!

As always, Max truly encapsulated the magnificence of these stunts with his editing - clean and simple to showcase the brilliance of your executions. Well done!

Thanks for the review dude, glad you liked it! :wub: As for the opener, it's new this way, it's only been done coming from this side by that closer ramp/bump. Also I'm curious, which one would you have picked as the finisher? It had to be this one because this is was definitely the hardest to nail, the runup, the bump and the landing are all a major pain in the ass. :lol:



Holy shit what a solo :o I pretty much liked most of the stunts, but 1:05 and 4:03 were just soooo good. Awesome video! :a-cheer:

Nowadays I don't really comment on videos, especially not on VC ones since it's not my cup of tea.
However, this video is such a masterpiece that I need to leave a comment.
 
All of the stunts were just amazing, especially the opener and the finisher.
But I was completely in awe after seeing that spin grind combo at 1:05. It was just epic, one of the best and most stylish VC stunts for me. I even showed that to my flatmates who have no idea about stunting, they were amazed as well.
It's insane to see such stunts being landed in 2021, especially on the VC map.

The editing and the music was also great, overall the video had a truly awesome atmosphere.
Well done! 10/10

Not gonna even mention 1:06 well guess what,  fuck yeah I will, because bazdmeg nem hiszem el mi a fuck was that jesus christ I'm done.

You're always making me start this game again and again, just not to lose my stuff to you.. again and again.  :wub:

A long, long time ago, my very first stunt video had this song. That video I made was terrible - except the intro, I actually kinda dug the intro. But god damn hearing this kick-ass song makes me glad that someone has used a brilliant song, and made a truly brilliant stunt video with it.

Bravo.

First off - love the music choice. It's not often music that's game-era-specific is used in a stunt vid. I loved the editing also. It reminded me of the classic days where you cut your stunts in and maybe doubled up a couple of nice landings and...that's it - letting the stunts be the flash, rather than the way they're recorded.

And these are stunts that don't really need any bolstering of any kind. Solid classic stuff sprinkled with some new level creativity and combos. The crazy spinning gutter clip to grind was the stand out for me. It's like watching someone trip over their own feet but then somehow turn that into a cartwheel followed by a backflip. Looks like a mess to begin with but winds up being all too stylish.

Great work, man. It gave me a warm, nostalgic feeling without being a 'best of' kinda thing.

The stunts contained all the elements I could possibly expect from ZeRo and then some. The crazy spinny double curb bump to grind without bailing at the end was nuts. Good job the both of you for making yet another swell video. ;D

Awesome vibe! Great stunts, finally that finisher is landed, I also loved that palm pot bump 2 roof (really thought for a second that you were going for that left roof there). But some stunts really felt like you should've fallen off your bike, while you didnt  :hmm:

Post by: Ezraph2001 on March 05, 2021, 07:36:02 PM
Holy shit Zero. Too lazy to watch again, but I fucking dig. The bonk stunts remind me of fckR because I was watching Decerto when I saw those sick ass grinds off bounces. After that Casino 2021 finisher now there's more of that shit holy shitballs. Still can't believe what I saw.
Your stunts although they're all natural ones they are fucking astonishing. Especially 1:05, 1:40, 2:05, 3:28, 4:00, prefinisher and finisher. 2:40 looks familiar to me. You landed that before in Exquisite. I ddon't know what else to say about that one other than something nice :)

You fucking sick motherfucker. 10/10

Dude, I know this is not the first time you leave a comment like this after I appear in a video, I'm sorryyyy :D But perhaps this will motivate you to fire up VC again and actually release something? Though I'm not sure I would like to be on the other end haha :P



Very nice video man. Just wondering about the stunts at 2:15 and 4:03, they have quite an antifall vibe to them  :hmm:

I thought that 4:03 might get called out, I was actually debating with myself if I should release this version or the other one where I did a perfect double grind at the end, but didn't get such a stylish spin after that bounce. I tried many times to combine the 2 executions but never managed to get it, so I settled with this one. The other one I'm not sure what you mean, maybe that I was dropping to where the rail changes direction?



First off - love the music choice. It's not often music that's game-era-specific is used in a stunt vid. I loved the editing also.

Amazing video, I feel dizzy watching all those spins. Gotta say I expected more bigairs and less grinds but I can't complain as all these stuff were amazing. Loved the bonks, the spins and the grinds. Also liked the bigairs, fortunately we could see some in the video. The combo at the cherry poppers factory was outstanding, I can't tell how you managed to stay on the bike but it was so spectacular. These gindcombos kinda reminded me of fckr's and I guess that's a big compliment, at least when I say it (not meaning that all these stuff are debatable such as fckr's ones are supposed to be). Also, I want to highlight the fact that you have done natural stunts only (the one with the secondary vehicle counts as one, too, for me). And you have been doing this your whole career, landing mainly natural stunts. It's such a great word especially seeing all these stuck methods and artificially created bumps all around VC.
Congrats on the editing Max and on using yet another classic and amazing VC song. It's almost as if you don't have to do anything special, these VC songs will work by themselves and create and amazing atmosphere.
So all in all thanks for the video guys, it was purely entertaining!

This is one of the best solo videos ever published. Only second to Barney's, if even to them. I enjoyed every bit of the video, and the fact that all stunts were natural. Nothing else involved but the bikes, the way I like it.

You managed to scour the terrain and find new extremely creative approaches to the map. Those double grinds were stunning, especially the one in 1:05 and in 2:06, of which the latter one was definitely my fauvorite stunt in the whole video. Other stunts worth mentioning are the drop bumps at 0:58, 1:45, 2:28 (WOW) and 4:15 (double WOW). Also the finisher was amazing, when acknowledging the hard terrain you had to drive through.

Song fitted the video perfectly; I don't believe any other song catches as mesmerizingly the 1980s Vice City vibe as She Sells Sanctuary. Camera angles were good. The main point of this video wasn't editing, but I think some warm colour correction would not have spoiled it.

In the end, fantastic video. Job well done. I am very delighted that YouTube algorithms suggested me this video.

I haven't checked GTAS in months but today I had a gut feeling to do so and I'm not disappointed. That solo was a blast! Every stunt was top notch and exactly my cup of... *cough* nat bumps *cough* tea and you know very well that you're one of my favorite stunters all time. Song was super chill and enjoyable. I'll make a full review later.  :a-cheer:

Amazing video, I feel dizzy watching all those spins. Gotta say I expected more bigairs and less grinds but I can't complain as all these stuff were amazing. Loved the bonks, the spins and the grinds. Also liked the bigairs, fortunately we could see some in the video. The combo at the cherry poppers factory was outstanding, I can't tell how you managed to stay on the bike but it was so spectacular. These gindcombos kinda reminded me of fckr's and I guess that's a big compliment, at least when I say it (not meaning that all these stuff are debatable such as fckr's ones are supposed to be). Also, I want to highlight the fact that you have done natural stunts only (the one with the secondary vehicle counts as one, too, for me). And you have been doing this your whole career, landing mainly natural stunts. It's such a great word especially seeing all these stuck methods and artificially created bumps all around VC.
Congrats on the editing Max and on using yet another classic and amazing VC song. It's almost as if you don't have to do anything special, these VC songs will work by themselves and create and amazing atmosphere.
So all in all thanks for the video guys, it was purely entertaining!

I agree with diaz about everything he mentioned. The fact that you did everything natrual is crazy, but I also question lot of stunts especially the one ones with rotations and how you managed to stay on the bike, while bouncing and spinning. I would love to hear a proper opinion of someone that is stunting in VC for ages.

Overall the video was really outstanding and something else

As per the past few years, I have had a period throughout which I rarely visited, much less commented on videos in the past few months. Upon return, I noticed that even though I had watched and commented on the video privately I probably have not done so on the forums. I have been making more comments so here goes: Fantastic use of natural terrain and flashes of absolute brilliance throughout the video, executions were majorly slick and satisfying and if I had to point out a few that stuck and especially captivated me it'd have to be the freeway triple grind as well as the double ledgegrind with the same vehicle by the junkyard, the very spinny grind near the hotel, the drop-bump near the mansion on starfish island and the finisher. Of course, really well packaged by Max. It's been a great year for stunting, may it continue.

Yooooo just happened to come here and check out if there's any new stuff worth checking out, and to my surprise there was. Really awesome solo ZeRo! I absolutely love the approach of only natural stunts that you took with this one, I can relate to the appeal. The boat bump in VC and the LC construction bump really stood out to me, you had some cool grinds in there as well, great job!!
