Not bad, the more you ride the better you get. We have similar forest roads here in Estonia, except those huge rocks are not in the road :D
What tires do you have? Looks like more road oriented cause you didnt have any traction on wet grass/dirt. I recommend Mitas E09 or Michelin T63 for that kind of roads(or tkc80 front tire, more expensive but little bigger knobs than other two). I think your friend had such tires according to the pattern on road. What did he ride? Also I recommend to put camera angle more upward to see more of the trail. Don't want to watch the fuel tank ;)

Thanks for the sub man! =)

Got some Metzeler Sahara 3, they came with the bike and away at work right now so not 100%, but only 99% sure of the brand/name;)

My friend rode an old Kawasaki 600, not sure of his tires either:D Will buy more dirt/gravel oriented tires when i get another bike, right know i ride mostly on the road with this one so dont want to take that leap just yet:/

Yeah, that angle sucks, was a bit annoyed when i got home and had 4-5 hours of footage of my pegs, crotch and tank! So will adjust a bit upwards and check it more often on the app from now on:D But hey, first times are for learning! =)

Being so slow on learning to edit the movies i have a gravel video on the way aswellm should be out within the week! =)

As regards to the camera angle, you also need to look further up the trail, easier said than done when new to off-roading as you tend to worry about what is right in front of you, it will come with practice and then you will find it easier to pick a line in advance too ;)

Hey!
Yeah was quite afraid riding the trail so stared to much at the wheel, but it will make the videos look better later;) when you can see a biiig improvement in a year or so! =)

Editing a new video of a gravel run the same day, still a bit sucky camera angle but liiiitle bit better atleast! =)
