Casey Brown's Way of the Wildcard - Video

Apr 25, 2018
by Red Bull Bike  


‘Way of the Wildcard’ is released every Wednesday and tells the story of unexpected athletes succeeding in the most unlikely circumstances. Brought up in near solitude within the New Zealand wilderness, Casey Brown and her brother kept themselves entertained by honing their skills on the FMB track with the aim of making it pro.

Casey’s world changed when her family moved to Canada, and she was faced with integrating herself into society as well as battling to the top of the world stage.

 Same here. I never connected the dots that Sam was her brother! Such a damn shame about his fate. That manual down the skinny was one of the gnarliest things I have seen to date in a MTB vid.

 @Smilicito: woah, just did a load of research about that... Colin Martin sounds like a F**king shite man...... Luckily he was convicted last year.

 From in the wilderness, she learned to play, so remote growing up, but not lead astray Some things in life can be so tragic, but Casey's shine in life is brighter than magic Now she's an inspiration to a generation, missing a tooth and never wearing shoes Love life like Casey does, it's the best life you'll ever choose. Love seeing the coverage of Casey, always makes me feel like life can be so rad. Sincerely - PB Users

 Super inspirational. Had a place in Nelson so knew the story of Sam well but had no idea that he and Casey were siblings.......awesome story. Keep givin' 'er Casey!

 Already a casey brown fan once i saw her rip. But, back in the day, i used to watch my nwd dvd with sam brown regularly, i had no idea that was her brother, and i had no idea about his suicide, thats so tragic. Casey, i can absolutely relate to the loss of someone you hold dear (although not as tragically), and the solace to be found in nature on a bike, doing the same thing that person would be doing if they could be with you now. his spirit rides with you.

 I don't think I've ever seen a Pinkbike comments section where no-ones comments have been neg propped. I see it as a mark of just how highly Casey is rated by all of the Pinkbike community.

 Big brothers are a powerful influence again...after 30yrs on mountain bikes I can’t manual or ride a skinny that’s more then inches from the ground...I am a big fan of CB and that manual on that skinny is one of the cooolist things I have seen! Sam likely built it too.....like that big wooden wheel!
