It is...not great. Too many of the dirtbike guys doing the same floater whip, not enough trucks jumping dunes. The first 2 sequences are wasted oporitunities. Music is not my style. Just have to shake my head at the whole thing.
Agreed, the first 5 minutes was a waste. I like the moto jam session, would have liked to see them hit different jumps. And it was a Axel Hodges commercial, getting more time than most of the other riders put together.
It's a shame they spend all that money and effort getting all those people out there, and that's the finished product. Add more of the trucks, some sand rails, more moto jump locations, less boring skits. I love that they film at Glamis, but it seems like a complete lack of effort.
Flying j..... I was moving a drill down to a job I had won in nebraska back in like 2010 and stopped at the Des Moines location, they had like 50 diesel pumps and tankers were rolling in every 15-30 minutes to unload, I was amazed at the business that place did. Never seen a truck stop as busy since then. The location wasn't ideal either, kinda suburban. Any gear jammers out there know of the place?
I watched it and honestly didn't get it. Maybe I'm getting too old to enjoy the dirt shark videos. But the first 4 minutes of the video were extremely pointless. Everything seemed to be done for the sake of "ohhhhh sh*t you know what would look cool...". The rally car and stock car had me asking out loud wtf. When the video actually starts 4 minutes and some change later it's a bunch of mindless, pointless bs.
This type of production makes me appreciate the work even more from guys like Cowling, Kirkpatrick, etc that work with a lot smaller budgets and make the most of their creativity.
On the plus side it was cool Bradshaw was in it even if he wasn't on a bike.
I don't like bashing on someone who I've never even met... but on what planet are the people living on who stillpay Dirt Shark for his video edits?? He's got such amazing material to work with; Axel is ridiculously talented at riding a dirt bike.... But every, fucking, Dirt Shark video seems to falls flat on it's face and reeks of missed potential from a production standpoint
Who can forget this train wreck of an awkward hot mess...
Watched the first little bit, boring! Skipped most of it, thort I missed something good, went back, nope nothing exciting, so skipped to the money shot. But not even a money shot.
I think many of you are expecting too much from this. Doonies is nothing more than a Monster Energy advertisement. Its not a story or documentary. With this in mind....I think its a great 13 min commercial.
I watched it like most people watch porn.

I refuse to watch a bunch of grown men act like teenagers. They all look like a bunch of ex cons and troublemakers. Talented yes but they present themselves in such a sleezy d bag way. Just my opinion
Shorten the chick intro to just the chicks jumping out of the cool lifted bus... "Hi we are here!"
Ditch all the "Look how cool we are" intro shots.
More footage of the rally cars, monster trucks, trophy trucks, and even street bikes railing huge bowls and jumping. Doing stuff in vehicles you usually don't see out there. In fact that rock car that launched the large step up was the best footage in the whole video.
Those dudes wheelying the touring sport bikes was pretty sick tho..

Completely agree this felt like an Axel Hodges commercial. He had 3x the screen time than all the other Monster Athletes that are much bigger stars in their respective formats. Only thing I saw from Twitch was his name flash on the screen.

I bet it was awesome to be there filming it, hanging out, riding, and watching that stuff live though.

Waste of time.
Other than that, it was terrible.
Oh and monster girl Janey, she is my type!
