I got myself The Collective DVD for Christmas and it is AWESOME. Anyone who hasn't seen it go now and get it!!!!

Does anyone have any other recommendations for riding DVDs that will live up it its standard?

imo collective was overhyped... good but not fantastic, superb camera work though.

i thought the highlight of the entire dvd was ryan leech, so i went out and bought 'manifesto' and just sat with my jaw on the floor watching in utter disbelief at the man's skills.

beg/steal/borrow.

I second the manifesto suggestion.

The beauty of the collective DVD was the music and the camera work, and the distinct lack of the MTV short n sharp style of editing, it was very good in a way that set it apart from the other freeride movies, hence the hype because it was so different.

i recently got the 'fundamentals' instructional dvd. It has a few cheesy moments, but i thought it was great. There was very little of the "he's so cool, what a dude" type of smarm i've seen in other vids

I really enjoyed the collective. its a beautiful DVD.

for different reasons I found ride the lightning very impressive, and another must have.

It is definitely the long shots, camerawork and the amazing scenery that amke the collective so good for me. It reminds me more of riding stuff myself (not in the same league though!) - really great rides have good scenery and long stretches of fast/techical riding.

I agree with Steve G - the "Whoa that move was buff! He's such a dude!" can get annoying on some videos.

Fundamentals is worth it's weight in gold, the suspension set up section was brilliant. The riding footage was spot on and the music much better than the usual crap.
