Liked it a lot. Short, perfect for my attention span.

Was cool when the surfer went under and came up a different guy.

Keep it up man, I've enjoyed all of them.

The soundtrack bothered me. Was the camera running on autogain or something? It sounded pretty compressed. The background hiss would creep up in between strums on the guitar.

Vidya was awesome.

I liked everything except 2 things - soundrack (not my cup of tea) and colors.

Soundtrack is self explanatory.
Colors - it looks like you just took video straight out of camera, cut it up but left colors exactly as same. you should mess with them. more vivid. more contrast. whatever. they just look bland right now :(

I disagree on the color. I want to see a realistic portrayal of the color of the water in Nicowhatever, not some oversaturated blue florida keys advertisement bullshit. Of course, this depends on the intended purpose of the video. On that topic, Nick, have you done any color calibration of your display device?

Super jealous of your surfing abilities. I love snowboarding and longboarding, but have not gotten to surf yet. I guess living in the mountains can have its disadvantages.

Video was legit. Thanks!
