Brian Tunney gives us a look at what he got into in August!
Where did August go? Where did summer go? This past month and year as a whole seems to have just flown! With a new month, that also means that Brian Tunney has released his latest edit giving us a look at his flatland sessions in his garage over the course of August. Hit play for a little over 2 minutes of riding with a chill, laidback song you probably haven’t heard before to enjoy.
“The craziest thing about this video is that every clip I filmed in August was filmed while the temperature was over 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Therefore, this is the hottest video I have ever filmed… In between literal GoPro meltdowns, healthy sweat sessions and many liters of downed water, I managed eight different things that I’m kinda, sorta okay with. Here’s a quick rundown of what I managed to get done during the hottest August on record in Austin, Texas.
00:05 Double bar undertaker to backyard to pivot out: I did the single bar version last year and this one-up felt way tougher last year. Things have changed.
00:25 Triple hitchhiker juggler to around-the-world. I did this without the camera in about ten minutes and then brought the camera out and it took about 35 minutes to get done.
00:48 Switch-foot gerator to backwards wheelie to undertaker: If you saw the 1991 throwback I posted earlier this month, you’ll see that I attempted a switch-foot gerator in my run. This is me making good on that attempt.
01:02 Double pinky squeak to gerator to two-foot rolling backyard to pivot out: No idea where this came from, but I like it.
01:25 Half-lash to footjam barspin to gerator to smith decade out: Just an idea I had that worked out, along with a too-close-for-comfort smith decade to end things.
01:43 Inside circle switch-foot peg wheelie to peg-ade landing in the boomer-ankle position: This was easier to do than type out. Joking, it was still hard because I am not a traditional decade person.
01:56 Hitchhiker to invisible hand to hitchhiker to hitchhiker: This took some time to get right. The invisible hand to hitch puts you on an angled path, which you have to straighten back out to then do the next hitch.
02:14 Sloppy entry into a barspin-catch, barspin-back, barpsin-catch to undertaker. No notes.
