Video: Enter MTB Dreamland in 'Magic Feeling'

Jan 26, 2023
by SHIMANO  

What would you choose if you could have one superpower?

There are so many options to choose from: flying, being invisible, or even super-strength, but what if you could choose to have your dream trails appear right-in-front of you…anywhere, anytime?

Sounds crazy to be passing on so many cool superpowers to choose this, right?

For us, it’s simple: nothing beats the feeling of riding a fresh trail that you have imagined and built yourself — we love everything about it!

From using your creativity and seeing a line appear in your imagination, to digging it out with your bare hands, shovels and pickaxes, and then finally being able to ride it.

When your wheels touch that fresh dirt for the first time – it feels like riding on a cloud – or when you hit a jump perfectly – it feels like flying – and when you pick up speed and find your flow, it feels like a video game.

And it doesn’t have to end there either. Building trails means leaving something for others to enjoy, making the world more fun, not just for you, but for everyone. And this is a true superpower!

This is not reserved to superheroes or just pros.

No matter what your level is, you can always progress.

No matter where you are, you can get involved with your local trails associations to help build more trails.

So go out there and explore! Make the world your playground, and discover new places, make new friends, ride new trails and find your magic feeling!

 What if you were in front of the guy making the trail appear? Talk about riding blind! A switchback would be devastating

 Well guess we cant't expect anymore building vida from sam.

 For Episode 2, I envision a mini gnome army of trail builders, moving dirt, shaping berms, and packing jumps in front of the riders cued to the Benny Hill theme song. Building trails isn't magic. Just hard work and community.

 @MTBER12: Yup, some of those jumps are in Queenstown and covered in grass and pretty neglected now - certainly not current filming!

 That was really weird to watch. My smooth brain really struggled with that. Was filmed a few years ago judging by sponsors, but cool to see something different!
