Red Bull Daze with Aaron Chase

You know the friend that always has the coolest toys, well for me that “friend” is the boys at Red Bull. They offered to let me run wild with the International MXT military/party machine and I jumped at the chance. I mean seriously, this thing has it all; full DJ set up, sick speaker stacks blaring some Maiden, flat screens, hydraulics and coolers full of perfectly chilled Red Bull. Um, yeah, it was going to be a good day.

More details inside...

You know, there’s always a catch, right? Red Bull was looking to capture some cool video shots of the MXT in action and challenged me to “think outside the box”. That’s where the infamous “Mr. Stang” comes in. This dude flies remote control planes for a living, that’s almost as crazy as riding a bike for a living. “Mr. Stang” custom built me a plane, “Chase Plane” that would accommodate my Go Pro HD cameras and he was willing to fly that thing into the ground to get the shot. Check out ChaseLife 15 and see the madness for yourself and don’t worry a new plane is already in the works. Check it.

 great footage, like the plane idea, it would be a nice little toy for downhill, but have you noticed in the last picture where the truck is opened up, i would like to know what type of truck that is?

 It's an International MXT. They are gnarly. I saw one with a .50 cal mounted on it and a missile launcher on the bed of it.

 Redbull should not be consumed by any athlete.. I don't support this post, this company or any like it. Your sending the wrong message to the kids, I know I don't want my kids growing up addicted to this extremely harmful drug. We need to stop making this an acceptable thing and pros like Aaron need to realize that it's wrong and not endorse companies like this making it look "cool" and acceptable.

 "Companies like these" promote and push our sport to to new levels one never even imagined before. I agree, redbull is not the healthiest of of drinks for an athlete but that company has pushed our sport and has supported it more than any other company i know. So instead of bashing them, you should be thanking them.

 id rather the sport have stayed small and in the background then have it be fueled by huge companies who sell massive quantities of addicting substances and who mainly just care about pushing product and not the sport itself.

 Really? Redbull endorses and sponsors more riders, extreme sports, racing teams, and events than any other company out there. They use most of their annual profit on endorsements and sponsorships. Redbull is the one corporation that seems to truly care about the sport(s).

 plus its fucking tasty haha

 x2 on Red Bull being one of the rare totally awesome companies, they sponsor every single cool sport out there. plus two F1 teams. TWO!! just tell your dumb kids to not drink soda every day.

 they actually own the F1 teams, thats how bad a** they are.

 To freebord07. This sport should accept ANY endorsements it can get. Riders and events aren't in the position to refuse backing, especially in the US. Redbull is not the best drink for kids, But it's one of the only drinks sending money and support. The world is full of harmful temptation. You obviouslly appear to take a proactive role in your child's life. Just accept the support from RedBull, have that "sugar is bad for you, son" talk, and don't drink it. Then everyone's happy. Your hippie rhetoric is a drag. If Coke a cola sponsored a WorldCup race in your backyard, would you boycott that too. Redbull is about as harmful as 2 cans of Coke. Lighten Up!

 dude the video was nice, wild ass times, thats what i love wild times, the plane the riding it was kick ass to see a aaron's DJing and the shots they did with that plane where killer, cos he probably didnt have a way to know how well it was filming, or maybe he did i dunno, it was just a sick video

 To freebord07, I agree with bryantaber-don't need to say what's already been said. They do an awesome job of pushing the limits and opening the eyes to the realm of possibilities. Progression-live it!!! Don't like RedBull, Drink Rockstar!!!!!!

 The plane is a cool idea, but an RC helicopter would capture the riding a lot better i thinks.

 I agree with the heeli thing--i was thinking that as the plane was a little quick for the rider at times
