Sequence Saturday 18

May 12, 2012
by Ian Hylands  
bigquotesRyan Berrecloth and Aaron Laroque were piecing together a little something for later this season and asked me to come along to shoot some photos. With my little knowledge of the North Shore trails I seemed to remember a little gem Ryan mentioned we would be shooting this day. I hadn't heard the name before, but the description matched my memory. A less than perfect run up and unforgiving landing zone that definitely lived up to it's name of Brutus.

Ryan gapped it more than once allowing for me to set up a few angles and come away with a sequence. With not a lot of incline to land on, Ryan shut it down and decided it was time to move on. It had been a pretty good day already, but I soon found out this was the breakfast gap and things got progressively bigger as the day went on. - Landon Stirling

 How so? The song isn't about homosexuals (the music video sort of is) and neither is that jump.

 If a man takes a huge gap in the forest but no one is around to hear it does he make a sound? That night he does when he messages all his friends on Pinkbike about how gnar it was.

 its so small, its only like 6inch gap. put the ruler right up to the screen for accuracy!
  • 2 1
 Its a huge gap drop for sure, seeing it on video doesnt do it justice. Berrecloth is a big kid, so hucking a drop 25 feet up and at least 20 feet out, you're bound to hit like a ton of bricks. But hey its easy to make comments, I say post your video or maybe commenting on this and not riding bikes is your game. Lame. Sick move Ryan. Props.
