What most people know about the Downhill World Cup circuit is all about the riders. Their performance, their victories, their crashes, their injuries, etc. What we don't know is behind all great mtb athletes hides a group of passionate people working hard towards one goal. Photographers, camera crews, team managers, mechanics and event organizers are all linked by the same passion for the sport.
How we travel from one country to another with our bikes and equipment is always a bit of a mystery for people and we wanted to show you what really goes on. Having four riders racing the full World Cup circuit means a lot of equipment and even more bikes on events like Crankworx for us.
The circuit goes on for about six months and life on the road can be rough. During those months there are not many breaks and your team and the whole circuit becomes your family, with the highs and lows, but at end race day comes and everyone remembers why they are here.
Our sport mixes passion with professionalism and has a wild and fun spirit. With the high expectations that come with professional sports, we are very lucky to have a united community that sticks to its values.
Thanks for everyone who accepted to be in front of the camera and thanks to Red Bull Media House for the support in this documentary. Please enjoy the movie that will be available for 72 hours for free.
