How do you guys feel about the increasing number of YouTube/Web Series' like Hanging Foul w/ Corey Bohan, or RedBull's Ride and Seek? I personally feel like these webisodes are a breath of fresh air (granted, they need to be produced with the highest of quality). It's nice to see some bmx content that isn't 100% riding focused, it helps the audience get to know the riders a bit more, and that just makes me that much more stoked on their riding.

Don't get me wrong, I still love a banging video piece packed with amazing riding, but breaking it up with these web series' is a nice change of pace.

Thoughts??

I really like it, i find just straight edits really boring and love when they have some insight into the rider or the day they filmed the eidt and etc.
I forgor what company did ot they started making edits that where kind of like a mini biography on the rider at the same time

I like the idea although me and my friends think it differently than those two you mentioned. Like we've been thinking about making a series out of this newer video we made or this one, just like raw behind the scenes type of stuff.
I mean I don't know what to think about the commentary stuff but I watch those series for the b-rolls/second angles/guys kicking part really.

I love Red Bull's series. I am not a fan of kids making 20 minute videos of raw clips though.

Agreed music or commentary would be needed in that length aspect.
