Movies For Your Monday - Matt Jones, Brett Tippie, Hailey Elise, Dan Foley, & More
Dillon Butcher - Myth: We are proud to present our freeride MTB short film, “Myth,” the product of the partnership between Forbidden athlete Dillon Butcher and filmmaker Liam Morgan. The short film showcases the Vancouver Island local's creative and unique style aboard his Forbidden Dreadnought. ‘Myth’ takes you through the lush spring and moody fall forests of Vancouver Island to the dusty summer deserts of Kamloops, BC in a dynamic string of riding sequences. Dillon’s one-of-a-kind style and creative combos blended with Liam’s cinematography and editing make for a passionate and energetic piece that we hope gets you stoked to get out there and ride your bike. "My goals coming into this project were to basically take what I can do on a hardtail and apply that to my big bike. Liam and I set out to shoot a variety of different locations across Vancouver Island and BC I wanted to highlight some tricks that had been in the back of my mind for a while but never got around to doing." - Dillon Butcher. Thank you for watching. Rider: Dillon Butcher. Video: Liam Morgan.

Progress - Bellingham's Gnarliest Trails On A Hardtail: 4000 miles and 56+ hours in a car in one month this winter to make the video. All inspired by the old school Pinkbike videos that got me stoked on riding and building. All riding done on the Chromag Stylus. Absolutely kick-ass music from Two Man Giant Squid. Filming by Michael Chungbin & Dylan Russell. Stoke and lodging from Adrian Tygart. Stoked to put this pipedream in a video! Enjoy!
Matt Jones - Raw 100: This has been an amazing project - creating a brand new downhill freeride MTB line for people to ride, love, and enjoy on their mountain bikes! Caersws Bike Park have smashed the build and this trail has every jump we can think of. Such a cool Helfare partnership with Shimano UK too. RAW 100 style.
Dancing In The Mountains: In the past few years, we’ve seen tremendous growth among women in mountain biking and the caliber is rapidly increasing. Born and raised in Vancouver, BC, Hailey Elise spent her formative years adventuring on Vancouver's North Shore, the birthplace of freeride mountain biking. Now based in Whistler, she's working towards pursuing a full-time professional career, but the journey hasn't been easy. The pressure, the injuries, the mental blocks. After her second significant crash in a year, we find her healing, dreaming, and working with friends turned family to prepare for her next big move. This short docu-film is a meditation on transformative physical and mental pain and a crew of friends profoundly connected by bikes and wild ideas.

Dillon Osleger - Why I Roam: “I find purpose in restoring historic trails as a path forward for cultural connectivity, good riding, as well as greater purpose in the sport.” Scientist, trail builder, writer, environmental policy advocate, and mountain biker Dillon Osleger has many titles, yet they’re all connected just like the ecosystems and the public lands where he spends time in search of speed on his bike. Join Dillon for the first episode of Why I ROAM – a short film series centred around five Wahooligans and what motivates them to get out and explore.

Mimo Seedler - Love Letter: Mimo has put his heart and soul into this project for the last six months and it has been worth it. “Over the past few months I've felt how far you can come, if you stick to your passion and enjoy the process more than the destination. I'm truly fortunate to be able to just focus on unicycling at the moment and I'm grateful for my family and everyone who has been a part of this chapter."
Dan Foley - Spring Fever: Started by a wave of motivation in the earlier NC spring days, this one became a bit of a challenge to finish after work/travel picked up and some editing procrastination set in due to not setting a deadline for myself.
