I've got hours and gigs of riding footage. But it's so arduous to edit it. Is there even any interest in seeing a highlight video?
The riding is just riding. How about the kite flying? Or a sample showing different riding areas and terrain?
I watched video playback of a 30mph run and it just didn't look fast on film even though the ride felt out of control.

Well... to make the best film to watch it starts with good direction.... then good editing( cutting out most of it).
Kober has made some of the best ones. I think he starts with really good direction (who, where, what to shoot, camera angles. Drone footage(!!)....).
If you have all crap footage, editing only helps so much.
Then the editing to keep it on pace, present the best, and keep it interesting.... perhaps making it into a 'story' form of sorts.
Ask him how much work it takes...

I feel your pain. Often I bring a Gopro with me, record a bunch of footage, only to review it and think that it's pretty darn boring, so then it gets
deleted. Most times I simply capture a certain frame that's interesting and that's as far as it goes. It happens all the time, I feel like I'm going
mach 10 but when I review the footage, it looks more like slow motion.

I just go through it ,pick out interesting parts or scenes. Get a lot of them and then try to piece something together paired with some music. Or
,just one run downwind with or without music. But you always have a ton of unusable stuff.

Kind of a metaphor on life...

I usually edit down an hr to about 3 mins
