The Green Room: Well here we are again. Andy Grant and I built this trail over four years ago and she still rips today thanks to the help of friends and great people who respect the work we did. It's awesome to see other riders hit our trail. Just be safe guys and ride with a buddy!

Miranda Miller - Squamish 2014: Fresh off winning the first NorthWest Cup of 2014 and the Squamish Enduro, Miranda Miller returned home to the beautiful forests and mountains of her native Squamish, British Columbia to shred some of her home trails.

Since skateboarding was his first love it naturally became his primary subject and the focus through the lens. His desire to capture the movement of skateboarding, precisely how he saw it, pushed him to move to California and chase his dream of becoming a professional photographer. Atiba now shoots everything from skateboarding to Lakers games to portraits of world-famous musicians and athletes. This short film gives a glimpse into the crazy life of Atiba and how he became a professional photographer.

To check out videos submitted by fellow Pinkbike members that didn't quite make Movie Mondays
here.
I mean, it would be better for my peace of mind NOT to watch several dudes crash horribly on Friday afternoon. And these Monday movies make me even more miserable when I have a whole 5 days before my next ride.
So, suggestion, let's make a section called "Monday Massacre" and "Feel good Friday!". Cheers.
No Helmet = Not Cool !
You have a bunch of kido's watching your video and trying to be like you, and if you want it or not you are an example for them.
Something to think about...
(I'm a helmet advocate, not an advocate of "shaming" those who choose not to wear one)
And @ scott-townes ...ever been around a young kid that can't walk or talk, because he thought he was good enough not to need a helmet? Well, it can be a pretty humbling experience. Also, I didn't notice anyone feeling shamed as he spread knowledge and another point of view to consider.
Many top bmx pros are simply acrobats, they have skills that many other riders will never obtain, no matter how much time and effort is given. Yes, Chase is well aware of the risk and the limits of his abilities, however the general public cannot expect to shred and bail like an elite athlete (which is rare).
I don't intend to sound like a "nanny", but I remember being on the other side of this argument when I was young, ignorant, and generally stupid (still struggling with that one...). The pros are setting an example and I don't care if any adult chooses not to wear a helmet. I could care less about Chase Hawk wearing a helmet if he wasn't producing internet hits and getting paid for it. How many people do you know that are required to take safety precautions at work????
