Yes, another edit critique.
The following is a video that I edited in FCPX. First time using X instead of 7. The colors may be a little off, but other than that go ahead with the critique.
Note: the features that are filmed in this video are literally all of the features that were on the hill, no jumps yet. They joy of living in Illinois.

Most of it was good, and I liked the switch up of shots during tricks, but some of the tricks needed to have longer clips, they just felt like they ended really abruptly.

i liked it for the most part. honestly the only thing i think you should tweak in the future is the colors... they just weren't very consistent, and yes, i know you shot this on multiple different days, but just a little neutralization of hues, specifically that orange tint on the stair set in some shots. if you just kind of get all of the colors similar, i think it would look a lot better

i think it had a pretty good vibe. as mentioned tho try and correct your colors a bit would be my suggestions. try and get the brightness to match from day to day too as best as you can. maybe bring up the cloudy days just a little and then bring down the sunny days quite a bit. especially the gopro shots, those tend to get overexposed easily but if you just bring down the white levels it usually fixes that
