Feed back on my mountain bike edit please

Colours were dull, but it sort of made you stand out more. WB was noticably off on a couple. filming was good, editing was good, song choice wasn't my kind but it was ok. The biking itself didn't seem great, I don't bike and I just ride a bike around town but I could do most of that stuff and more, maybe not some of the turns at speed(as the camera doesn't always represent) but the jumps and everything else easily. Also what was up with you trying to break the tree at the beginning and failing? or was that just bending it? not really worth putting it in.
 
I dont know much about filming/editing, but I watch a lot of biking edits so I will tell you what I see.

The song didnt match the riding at all. If the rider was faster I think it would have fit better, also it seemed really quiet compared to the sounds of the rider but that could just be my headphones. The shot at the beginning could have been axed, or at least put at the end with the other outtakes. Not sure if you did any color grading, but the colors were super dull and there was to much blue to the shots. Also the rider did the same mini-whip off of all the jumps, which got super repetitive especially since its not an amazing whip. finally, the edit seemed to just drag on. I found myself only watching to the end so I could just give you some feedback, otherwise I would have gotten bored. Next time, keep it around 2:00 if the video is similar to this.

What I just told you was comparing your edit to someone like Aaron Laroque's(sp?). Compared to a lot of videos on pb, including mine, its a great edit.
 
had the white balance set wrong for the first part accidentally and im trying to work on my colour gradin. does any one know any good tutorials?

the tree was part was funny at the time but i probably shouldn't of put that in, and the end is a bit repetitive and should of made it shorter.

I should have chose a better trail, that is fun to ride but doesn't look that good on camera, and most of my trail are relativity flat with out driving far.
