In my opinion it sort of seems like a little teaser... Possibly it will be in NWD9... Other than that great choice for VOD!

I have to admit.. that was the best video I have ever seen. It was like pumping my adrenline all around my body when I saw Cam and Claw just drifting around on those steep-ass hills...

That was true freeride.

flag kylemciver (Jan 30, 2008 at 13:54)
I really really like this stuff.

It seems like a lot of the lines shot in Utah now, and the later years of the Rampage seemed to be really manicured, so basically it was a slopestyle course with nice background. This seemed a lot wilder and natural with the riders using the terrain instead of changing it to suit their needs.

I know there was some stuff (pic of Bearclaw with a shovel), but I think the least that can be done the best. It's like ski movies, you don't want to see a tracked out face or groomed landing; you want to see the true natural state.

I loved the clip, especially the first line where the rider turns the corner, and while going down in the shade spits dirt over the edge which lights up in the sun. Just my two cents.

So many of thoes shots looked like big mountain ski lines, more then anything I've ever seen in a bike movie. That one line, along the ridge line then the big banking left turn down a chute carving turns all the way down to the bottom. Sweet!
