Because of work, other hobbys and no one to ride with, i barely ever touch a bike, it was really refreshing going out and getting some hours down on the bikes.
Everything was filmed on my phone.

Great fun !
Gear :
AUW 566 grams
HYPERLITE FLOSS "V2.1" 5" RACE FRAME
hyperlite 2207.5 1722kv
Gemfan 5152sr props
holybro stack
predator v2 fpv cam @ 45 degree angle
Frsky xsr receiver
R-line 1050mah 6s battery
Ev200d goggles
x9d plus controller
Hero 3 on TPU 30degree mount.
This is the first proper fpv video i have done, didnt start until too long ago doing this kwad stuff.
Great fun tho !
With the HD cam i am flying a 5" floss freestyle frame, with some rs2205 2600kv and the 20x20 stack from 3" quad xjb145 . On the hawk 5 i have swapped the vtx(hglrc) and the camera to a predator v2 . The hawk 5 will be my racing quad.
Yes the quality is shit, its just recording from my goggles, and recording is shit =p Will post some stuff with a better camera attached at some point, but its just a little 3" quad, its so slow with extra cam on it.
Hglrc XJB 145 3" quad
We will see if we can make a longer video during the winter, but here in Norway theres hardly any riding going on, either its cold and rain, or cold and snow.

Nikkor 85mm 1.8 ai-s @ 1.8 , cine-d , 125 fps @ 25p timeline
Rendered to 25p timeline .
Filmed in v-log, quick color\contrast adjust .
Because only 8bit color, i will not use vlog on slowmotion in future , but quality is fairly decent.
Used Nikon 80mm 1.8 ai-s with adapter. making it 160mm effective , at ~5.6f , i think . ISO 400 .
Eirik came to Bergen for a short trip , so we did some quick filming over 2 days to produce this quickly made video .
Me myself TRA had the fortunate accident landing hard on my face just after starting to ride day 1 , getting abit of a concussion .
But that aint going to stop myself from having some fun on the bike . =)
Ride hard, have fun and enjoy your time on the bike .
Last few rides on my Caelifera, no attempts on making anything special, just a few clips thrown together . Enjoy

Me and Vasha made a video together last year when go to dressler camp, we continue this tradition with another video .
Even tho its only filmed over a few days we managed to get 8 mintues of footage.
In the end we were lacking street footage, but even tho we were very very tired we took a small trip to the streets of Prague and got some footage in the end.
Special thanks goes to Vasek Kolar, Scott Wilson , Lukas Burianek and Lucka Kyselicová for making this happen .

As i landed i twisted the bar back, making the bike not rideable and i jumped off the bike.
Adjusting my bar back into proper position, and turning the spoke key a couple of times and bike was fine again :)
Vasha and TRA made a quick 2day video while riding in Prague
First video outdoors after my years brake from pure trials riding , now riding the Triton titanium machine ,with Trialtech parts equipped with some Stan titanium ti bolts ;)
Video was just random stuff filmed over some time, hope to go in for a more proper one later this year =)

Hello you !
The clothing line BRE has some great riders, but they didnt have any sort of video of them all. So i took it upon myself to make such a video for everyones enjoyment.
I spliced together footage from different videos and tried to make it look decent,
i have not put my heart and soul into this edit, altho 2 days has gone by with the work of aquiring the material and stuffing it all together.
Thanks to the different people that was involved with the video shooting.

Got some more leftover footage , so made another short video .
music : Annibale E I Cantori Moderni - Trinity (Titoli)
Just some clips i had laying around i put togheter.
Its from end of 2012 , riding the inspired hex
music : Arnej ft Josie - Strangers We've Become
This is my first video back on a proper biketrials bike after 1 year of riding the inspired hex street machine.
I am a little rusty on some techniques, and i was ill for 1 month before this video, resulting in 4 kg muscle loss! But still there should be some good moves and creative enjoyable footage in here.
I am riding a titanium triton frame with trialtech parts, and Stan titanium titanium bolts.
I have called this video "wobbly pallets" since we didnt really bolt any together and was not able to have anything other at our disposal, but hey, you do what you can with what you have !
Enjoy =)

Music : John Legend - who did that to you
Went to Bodø for a couple of shows, and decided to borrow my friend older 20" , its much smaller then my bike so its easier to bring around. Had some fun on it, i have not ridden proper pure trials for about a year .
messing around
Knut Fosse has not been much active lately, but is getting back into it again, he has some huge power moves tho ! =)
Got a dslr camera again, finally. Went out to get some nice images with chill riding to try it out. Still taking things slowly after injury .
Camera is Canon 600D with some cheap lenses

I have barely been riding for months after an injury that needed serious attention.
But today i went out with the intention of making a video, this way i forced myself to try harder on the bike, altho im still taking it slowly, my neck\shoulder is shit.
Enjoy my little video from a short days riding :)

This is the second video im doing on my inspired 26" hex .
I have named it "back to 2001" , because my first bike which was in 2001was quite similar and i did almost the same type of riding, mainly just one difference, 11 years extra of skills.
this is a traprod production

Has been out on vimeo for some time, but seeing i have some subscribers here im releasing it here aswell
Hi.
This was originally released in 2011 kinda like a community test, it was priced at 5USD for digital download.
Theres been enough wait now since last buy , so now im releasing it for free.
It is 20 minutes of riding several places around in the US , having a great time !
All the way from Arkansas to Colorado.
Gary Vernon from Wallmart had me over there to do a competition, it was a great success even tho i felt like i had a heat stroke, haha.
Special thx to :

as "Crazy street trials w/ TRA on Inspired Hex " (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bnhs8FeSpQ&feature=youtu.be) was the main video of Step 1, this is the indoor version.
Step 1 was to primarily film some short sequences on how the inspired could be handled as a trials bike.
This is just a few short clips of me riding the Inspired Hex in an indoor arena for mototrials which is not suiting for street trials at all.
Now begins the large task of learning a few new tricks along with planning and finding locations for a proper video , which is step 2.
Hope you all enjoy this short little video.

This is the first video i do on a street trials bike, i got the bike some months back, but beeing winter there have been little time on bike. This video is filmed over 3 days of riding.
This video acheives "step 1" of what i would like to do , and this was to focus mostly on what i already knew of techniques and use these to make a video on the Inspired.
But next in line is the indoor video of Step 1, as this is the outdoor version.
Photo,edit and everything else is done solely by myself Thomas Remvik Aasen aka.TRA

Nothing that great in here, i recently discovered i had a super slowmotion effect on my camera(200 fps?) and i just got a new lens, so i headed out in my jeans just to try it out.
Quality is "ok" ,certainly not great, but im sure i will find a good use for this slowmotion effect, but its really hard because you can only film for about 3+ seconds! :\
Camera is hdr-cx360 handycam , smth slw effect .
I broke my other frame so i bought this old thing for some cheap coins.
Filmed over 2 days.
Im tired of standard trials riding so i have started practising some other things, and this makes a video which is not standard TRA style, but something different, some great stuff in here tho.
Check it out and let me know if you like it :)

Hi.
I went out to make a vid of Knut today(2 years ago), nothing planned, all impulsive work . Its a mood piece i think, with some good riding in it, pretty funny too :)
Made by traprod
hiya.
this is a vid from the trip to aalesund i did.
this video is not focused at all on kickass riding or awesome filming, has some decent stuff in there but mostly its just fucking around and having a laugh.
its more of a comedy mood piece of friendship, pretty gay but funny,atleast to us ! =)

Hi.
I did a show in oslo, so i invited Knut fosse to go with me and do a road trip. We filmed lots of car driving and stuff but not that much riding. My goal were never to make something proper filming like, but rather get stuff documented and edit it afterwards so its still pleasing.
I personally are still taking things bit slowly, but next video i hope i can show off something proper, long time since that. Also would like to show off the skills of Knut .
Another shoutout for mr solbakken and hall for hospitality , and ofcourse the lego which was awesome .
Video is 13 ! minutes.
I can give a last credit to my sponsors (at the time of making this)

"Then and now" is a pretty good description, you will see amongst others, clips of me doing mototrials way way back(95-96?videocamera date must be wrong) and 2 clips from around year 2000 when i was borrowing a biketrials bike.
And then it skips straight to the newer last years where i have cut in many of my bigger and cooler moves i have done on tape with biketrials.
There will also be some unseen(not released for free) clips from videos like my USA trip and my DVD
This video is aimed at mass market , even people outside of trials, hence theres little technical stuff and more of the big stuff aswell as some self bloating ! :)
To efficiently set the difference between old and new i have only taken clips from when i started with HD cameras, even tho theres lots of great stuff even before so.
