Final Rendering of Champion Video!
OK,,,,,this is what everyone has been waiting on,,,even me. Google has been a major pain with my uploads the past 2 weeks, causing flaws in all 21 of them. My first attempt was with an MPEG-2 file that was over 500Mg, so let's just say it took about 4 hours to upload each time. And each time I would check it after the upload and there would be dropped frames and audio, in different places, everytime. So I converted to DIVX used an .avi format with MP3 sound, and behold, I trimmed it down to a spartain 189Mg. The only problem was that google kept dropping frames on every upload. So at about mid point of the video you will see the 11 dropped frames because, I'm tired of fighting it. My version does not have the dropped frames and I will try to upload it again and replace the current google video in a few days. The entire video is just a speck under 9 minutes and I hope everyone enjoys it.
To all,,I managed to get a good upload to google and this one has no dropped frames or audio glitches. This is the one to download and keep. Here is the new link!

What a great surprise first thing in the AM to watch! I downloaded it but you have to download the Google player to make it work http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/mad.gif I am not sure if I burned a disk if someone could watch it without that player? As for the breech being violent Pat, myself and others have been warning not to try it if you don't have someone with you to show you how to do it. YES it can hurt you! From personal experience what you are not seeing is his feet braced under the console knowing what's coming LOL. Watch those shots of the guy following the bluff wall, that kind of control comes in real handy when they pull down these TVA lakes and you need to get to the back of a wandering creek channel W/O doing a several mile idle. Just find ole John Duke and ask him if a tournament loaded two bubba Champion cannot duplicate that ride http://www.bassboatcentral.com/boardstuff2/pimp2.gif. Mellow just posted a few weeks ago about fishing on Santee and running shortcuts throgh the trees, another time when you better have full control of your boat on pad or stick to idle. Lots of reasons I made the jump from a die hard Ranger fan to Champion back in 97 after my first "ride & decide", I only wish I had known just how good they were before then! I have not tried the breech in a new wide body, but I did take some pretty tight (I promise if you had not ridden with me before you'd been white knuckled)near WOT turns in Duane H's 2007 200 with a tournament load on Old Hickory running back creek channels and it handled them like it was on rails!!! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/popcorn.gif

David Bradford did most of the driving on that video. Don Hancock and Bill Pace were also driving a lot in it.

Thank you for your time to make this available for us to enjoy, sure brings back many memories. It is easy to forget how Champs did look back then they were so ahead of there time and still are. When other bass fisherman see my boat they say ChampionS were always a lawyers or doctors boat top of the line. Good Job.

Re: Final Rendering of Champion Video! (55excl)
awsome finished product, still a big fan of the music and the boats. Breech turns are cool, I just don't do them much anymore...guess I'm getting too old to impress my friends at the risk of breaking something on the boat....
Peace,
Don<><

Great job on the vibeo.
The stop at just past 8 min. is the type of breach stop I remember. It can break your battery trays though. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eyes.gif
