  2. great lighting and looks, and how you got all the kids to work so well great stuff, i like doing these competitons when things are slow it helps me keep in touch with my rig and staying in shape i have a group of friends that we do these 48hr contest here in honolulu, so here is one we turned into a music video the genre was "misconception"and the props where a buddah and a polaroid picture and the line we had to include was "hey someone is using that"
  3. wheres the pole!!!!!!!! oh its in your hand erwin lol
  4. I won the NAGA (North American Grappling Association) last year with a head and arm triangle (the tecnique used at 1:53 of the YouTube video. Wow, didn't know so many Steadicam Ops were into BJJ. I won two 2nd place medals at NAGA for Gi and no-Gi. It was fun! Unfortunately, I got owned at the Gracie Invitational last year. Trying to work some flying triangles and arm-bars though, figure that's the last thing anyone expects these days. So, Amando you'd love Jiu Jitsu for its art, plus I can only see it helping as far as operating goes (as long as you know when to TAP) haha. -Kat ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Amazing. Im not alone. Im surprise other Steadicam operators are training BJJ. After training during 10 years, Im brown belt under Mario Sukata here in Argentina. Next july I hope go to Brazil to fight the Mundial Master. Mike, The choke is called "kesagatame" and usually I train it from mounted position or guard position. if you mistake the choke, you can take the back Here is a video of 2002 fighting a Submission cup. Im in a red tshirt that master Carlson Gracie give me to me in 2001. best to all and take care of knee locks! Gus. hey gus watched the video clip nice finish actually that was a great match alot going on,and i am glad to see that i'm not alone as well, i've been with relson gracie for a little over 15 years now and i think it is the best cross training for steadicam ops and almost anything else you do but with all said great job,and mike's got a great idea we can do a steadicam op tourney that would be a blast and i know it would suck cause you guys would have to come to hawaii to do the tourney lol then we'll have a steadicam surfing contest at pipeline to that follow up hehe best to all

  14. aloha robert thanks buddy yeah i have actually sent contract services my 100 days of work with check stubs,what each event was where it went whether it was tape,live to tape,live or even just dvd series also letter heads from the companys and then contract services tells me they want copys of my invoices at that point i was stuck in a bad way our house was broken into computer and alot of other goodies where stolen and then i also delete my old invoice after a certain amount of time because i need the space my bad for not backing them up on a differnt hard drive lesson learned so not only do i own my own steadicam rig i also own a couple of jibs and a technojib this is the reason i am wondering about the owner operator thing i went to the rights to work part of there website but it was rather vague but once again thanks for the help oh and i still have your sticker on my case from when you where at tiffen i laugh all the time when i see that
  15. please guys don't beat me up here my question is this,if you are working on a lets say "b" or less rated film and you are not in the 600 union can they keep you from working if you are contracted as an owner operator whether it be steadicam,technojib, technocrane, or moco operator peace
  16. hey charles when i spoke with the idx guys they had mentioned that they were working on an upgrade but they didn't mention what the upgrade was we can only hope that was one of them that was around the time i last posted about this unit thanks

  18. aloha chris my question is when you are stepping in and out of the handsfree do you have a type of thether for the sled just incase your assistant isn't around that allows you to get on and off with out the rig doing something you wouldn't want it to or would you just go to your stand and bow in and out of it to land your sled and then step on and off thanks i'm just wondering about different situations cause i want one,one of these days lol
