Video: Welcome to Utah
After making the move to Utah early this spring, I got together with Tom Haraden and produced this short video showcasing some of the amazing riding in the Salt Lake City and Park City areas. This video was 100% filmed in Utah, minus the fullpipe clips just over the border in Wyoming. The goal was to showcase some of the varied riding available in this amazing area - we barely scratched the tip of the iceberg. We want to give a huge thank you to all the locals for the amazing trails. Also, a big thank you to the companies that support me including Deity Components, Bern Helmets, Kenda Tires, Darn Tough Socks, Rye Airfield, and www.mtbvt.com.

Great video Sasha! Thanks for showing off so many great alternate riding zones in the SLC area. We have so much classic singletrack that the Park, DJ, Urban, and Freeride zones often get overlooked. Hope you have something planned for next year!
Also love the Emerald track from Thin Lizzy.

I couldn't live in Utah, I wouldn't be able to afford all the different bikes I would need!!
Cool vid- really flowy and controlled riding.

Yeah, living in Salt Lake is pretty badass. So much riding here, and within 4-5 hours of places like Moab/Fruita/Teton Pass/Virgin.

I got crap for saying it last time, but Utah is swiftly gaining on BC. I worked with some of the hardest riding skiers, boarders, bikes, and rock climbers who moved here from all over and they all say there is nothing like his place. I have lived a few places myself and I gotta agree. Thousands of miles of trail can't be a bad thing.

Why was the answer voted down? Is that not where the trail is? I'd like to know as well, looks like a blast!

Wooo!!! Riding that ridge in the fog is sketchy! It's gnarly enough when you can see! Baby heads everywhere.
