Strength in Numbers: Full Switzerland Segment

Jul 2, 2012 at 22:41
by Anthill Films
 

In keeping with the theme of their new community-based film project, Strength in Numbers, Anthill Films has just released the full Switzerland segment for everyone to enjoy and share. Travelling with your bike is an amazing way to create connections between different riding communities all over the world. This is what Anthill hoped to capture when they followed freeride legend Wade Simmons on his annual summer trip to the Swiss Alps along with fellow freerider and friend Matt Hunter. Hopefully, watching this will leave you inspired and stoked to get out on your own bike adventure. In Wade’s own words: “It’s not all about the trail... it’s about where that trail is.”

 Everyone's begging Anthill to keep giving them free stuff. It's pretty ungrateful to get two scenes from a great movie (that cost a lot to make) and then to only ask for more free scenes. I thought someone would beat me to it but I'll say it first: Thank you Anthill!!!

 The full movie was streamed live over the internet for 24 hours the day it was released, maybe that's what you heard about.

 Aggy's second section was the best by far. Such a crazy trail! The log step up step down from Matt Hunter was also pretty wild!
