What are reasons to refilm a trick?
I usually refilm tricks when there are issues with the camera or equipment, or if the trick wasn’t recorded correctly. I often refilm manuals because I can’t see the detailed picture on my camera while filming. Sometimes, when I review the footy at home, I notice that I touched the ground with my other wheels, so I refilm to get it right.
For other tricks, even if they aren’t perfect, I try to keep them as they are. If I landed it and it was recorded, that’s good enough for me. This is mainly because I don’t often go to the same spots. I try to find unique spots that aren’t the most common or popular ones, and which are usually far from the city center. Going to these spots is always a mission with friends, and I like to keep the footage not just for the trick, but also as a memory of the friend who filmed it and the experience we shared that day.
