    As a former competitive cyclist back in the 80s it really does my heart well to see Paula working on bike handling skills! I think too many triathletes ignore this aspect of the game. Great stuff guys!!

    Some small tips on fpv drone flying that I recall from when drone racing and freestyle flying was my main hobby a bunch of years ago. 1) bank left to right, back and forth, just a little bit when you're flying straight, it gives a really smooth flow to things and irons out a lot of the small jerky stuff that always comes with it when you're getting used to flying. 2) when turning, or doing a 'move', just commit to a certain joystick input and keep it locked for a few seconds - a good video shot is most often just a certain locked position of the joysticks and letting the drone do its thing, and in time you'll learn to give 'correct' inputs that'll actually end up doing what you want to. 3) big, slow moves often look the most epic - like you're suspended in time, floating in zero gravity 4) bonus tip - turn off any joystick acceleration if you have it enabled and learn to fly with linear high sensitivity input instead, it'll make you way more consistent in performing accurate snap moves in the long run. I never got as good as I wanted, but if you want some examples of what I've just written you can have a look at buckyfpv here on yt.

    Epic intro this week! All of that drone footage was super fun, and DIFERRENT than typical staccato drone footage people usually shoot, thank you!! The only note (for when you have a bigger crew) is to paint out the drone shadow on the lower shots. Regardless, another awesome and inspiring video!

    • @ThatTriathlonLife
      @ThatTriathlonLife  Год назад +14

      yeah, I thought about going through that, and normally I'd just shoot so it wasn't in frame, but I figured in this episode, the drone was essentially a character, so I kept it in :)

    I was really hoping the sun was going to end up filling the sun from the logo during the intro. Like the old DVD logo bouncing into a corner, I was getting excited. Next time Eric, next time. Great vlog, kinda felt like part of an 80's movie montage. Michael J. Fox Fox Fox Fox in my head.

    Late to the video this week, but never miss one. I was at a lecture by the great Dr. Jordan Peterson who is in the UK, on a lecture tour, but he comes from Paula's neck of the woods, in Edmonton Canada. So missed the release yesterday. The drone footage is brilliant and loving the moped set up looks super cool. and the music edit is always absolutely on point! I Won't be late next week, lol. Stay safe both see you next week, much love from the UK.

    Paula rarely seems like she's into filming (I don't mean that in a negative way at all; maybe she'sjust a super chill person?). Is that just her being focused on her training instead? Eric, though, seems fully vested and excited to grow and improve his content creation. It's cool to see thr cross over of athlete/filmmaker.

    Let's see, I guess it was texting, right? Yeah texting and driving is bad, so totally, operating a drone while driving a Vespa, and filming, totally cool. 🤣 The dynamic shots were stellar actually- no one uses a drone for , well not since Flight of the Navigator. And come on, we all know Flynn has secretly become a full triathlete- that he also figured out the bike, and you are hiding it from us- he runs, he swims.... (and wears cool Rapha Raphas hanging over the handle bars and kicking his furry legs in those pedals).

    I agree,,,your one man film team, is one of the best!!! Music, video, and content are super good!!!, here in santa Cruz, two open water swims, no wet suit, I recommend no wet suit for warm up, helps you get used to the cold, and is tougher, so your swim with the wet suit, extra warm:) and even more important, extra fast,,,bikeing the run course daily, on my Mountain bike, maybe i will see you on the course, seen a few other already, they are like running, my plan is to build up the run, every other day, tomorrow I will run 8 miles of it, thru wilder and back to west cliff, say 8:33am if you dare, lol and for the race I will run the full 13,,,I will watch the swim, and bike,,,then am going to start on mile 1,,,figure after I see you ride by on the way back, then I have what ever time it takes you to get back, then get running, maybe I will be no more then 10 minutes infront, I am thinking of it, like running with the bulls, really though, its running with the pros, and once you catch me, I will let you pass, and cheer for you, should only be a few of you out front, last year,,,only 2,,,but they were really good runners, looking forward to watching you race, you coming to this race, has made it even better then last year's race, so thanks, and good favor to you on this race!!! As I am here, and once you have favor, you like laugh at luck, parked off west clif, sunset, like the road sign says, best sun sets here:)

      @@ThatTriathlonLife Thanks for the Heads Up....It slipped my mind🙃, I'm listening to it right now. As a Road rider, I geek out on any Bike stuff (from punctures to cracked frame & Tri Athletes have amazing rigs. Happy that Specialized came through with a replacement FrameSet for Paula to make the race. I always cringed when seeing Tri-Athletes put their beautiful bike into a Soft Case ie; Scicon....and the cracked frame does not surprise me. I'm in the market for a case & this example confirmed my Hard side leaning. Enjoying the Podcast just like the YT work. Cheering for You both always. Stay Safe & Healthy................You are both on a roll this year, Keep it going.
