That first train pic tho. Honestly, f***ing NO ONE is going in a sensible direction through the air on that jump. It's like, here are all the different techniques you can use to land yourself in the hospital in one picture. Let's see here... one guy is cartwheeling, another guy just hit it backwards, other guy decides "you know what, I'm gonna just hockey slide this landing."

It's like a rainbow of gnar.

There are two jumps, one for the two dirt riders in the background and another one for the 3 big bikes... it makes sense to me

Looked like a raibow coming down that hill. No doubt this is a STRONG time, though.

I know there'll be negative propping for this but I feel like every Queenstown edit features basically the same track. Maybe it's just this week with Elliot Jackson, George Branigan and now this one showing that whoops section and the corner with the lake behind etc... Must be more variety right???

To be honest it's not easy to make Queenstown look good on camera. 90% of the trails here is near vertical steep gnar, which guys like them ride incredibly fast but on camera it'd look like nothing.
Watch Lacondeguy's vid from QT, the trail he's riding is World Cup, which is obscenely steep, but doesn't look like anything on vid.
So filmmakers compensate with the little amount of stuff that actually looks good on camera, like Dreamline, the "tourist corner" on Thundergoat, or the quad on Vertigo.

do you have that link for the lacondeguy?

the part of the trail that most videos show and it's a Little bit boring to see over and over again is the moto hoops , when i saw the eddie master's video i looked at it and was awesome, but then every on ot the videos from there had the same part and started to be a Little boring to watch

That's a pretty big team man !

How do Polygon manage to fund a team that big ?

I have seen maybe 2 Polygons at most in all my time riding at different trails , maybe they are big in Europe or some thing ?

fabdemaere (Mar 24, 2015 at 15:26)

They've only been producing their own bikes for 4 years but they've been maming bikes for other companies for years. They're one of the biggest bike manufacturers in the world

Of all the bike porn videos I've seen the past 4 months, waiting for the trails to thaw and dry, this one makes me wanna ride the most for some reason. Must be a hidden sound track because I kept thinking over and over while watching it, "Quit your job and go ride your bike" Actually sounds like a really good idea..

Just after the point when Loic speaks to camera at 0:52s, there's a shot of ?his? shifter. What's with the lateral movement?
