#25 Video of the week

News Image

#25 VOTW is a short action edit by Toby Segar and Team Storror and is a combination of moves performed with concrete confidence in their ability, and though some of the moves seem superhuman (note 1.49, it has to be seen to be believed) a couple of bails thrown in show that they are quite human and simply very skilled. Some nice diving kongs/SDC and kong/SDC to precisions in there too.

So enough talking, watch, rub your eyes, rewind and watch again. Enjoy!
