old videos had "slam sections" just footage of hard/funny falls.

sometimes one clip is added just cause it was an amazing slam, funny, or something the audience wont get (like how/why he/she slammed, kinda only funny to poeple that were there)

Slam sections (Where its just tons of bails on alot of different spots) are just cool! Sometimes funny ones, intense ones etc... Good intro too.

Also bails at a spot (Like a few bails, before or after the trick) make you actually notice the spot and trick more. If you have something difficult, creative, or anything. It won't get noticed as much if you just show the clip. It shows, it gets noticed, a new clip comes, that other clip does not have their attention anymore. If you show the guy bailing it shows the trick and spot alot. Then they can really take it in. They will fully appreciate it, or at least more so than it just passing. I like to see someone going for something big and bailing a few times so I can really see the spot. After the landing its like holy shaaat! Its kinda like the way slow-mo lets you take in the trick/spot alot more.

This seems to not be used in as many videos anymore...
