FM exclusive! Sam Foakes August 2008 edit

Check this out! Tgm Maz has just dropped this, lil bit of background...Sam wanted to show a very progressive time in his riding career,and as hes not competing this year he wanted people to see this stuff, the three links that you see back to back, they were right as Mario turned the camera on! And the 7 infront of the bar whips to halfpacker backwards backpacker out, that was on a very wet day at tgm, pissing with rain, windy as fuck, right now i'd say this is one of the most progressive edits out there. Thanks to Mario and Sam for sharing this groundbreaking time in Sam's career. Amazing!!

Trimming the tricks down of their "fat" i.e pumping, using the turbines instead as a pump, for me that halfpacker stuff is beautiful to watch, not to mention f'ing hard! No room for error at all!
And yes Maz i remember that day you guys filmed in the pissing rain, Sam invited me down, I looked out window and thought "hmmm 45mph winds, pissing with rain no thanks", buts its testiment to Sams dedication that he can drop groundbreaking stuff like that, under the worst weather riding conditions.

That time machine to spinning death truck thing (?) was just crazy. One of my top edits no doubt.
