Upload it to ns or vimeo or something. All i see is a black box where the video should be and it says facebook and has a lock in the top left corner.

make everyone blow up when they land, because they just got struck by lightning. then star-wipe into next scene.

but seriously, looks good. maybe some shots inbetween the tricks of the people just chilling or doing something awesome. but what do i know..

You probably shouldn't letterbox over your titles.

And tripod shots from distance that don't move are really, really boring.

Showing you smoking isnt cool.

Less slow mo.

shorten the clips, too long/ mundane

too far away for the most part. change scale to keep it interesting

shot style becomes redundant

change angles, scale, play with some other tecniques to make it less boring

showing you smoking is dumb as hell

and ya, as eheath said, don't letterbox over your titles. probably a bad idea

pre good though
