Stonewall with Derek Teel - Video

The hardpack and rocky trails in Auburn, CA surround the NorthFork of the American River. It's a local spot for Derek Teel that offers varying conditions and ride opportunities. When you have ridden every trail in your area hundreds of times, you need something to bring back the stoke. Filming gave him the time to walk sections and pin them individually, instead of the typical "auto pilot" mode that countless runs can do to you. The result was new lines and some more time off the ground!

A proper winter allowed for some grippy terrain before the plants started growing. You know the type of dry dirt that hooks up, but offers the occasional drift? He thinks that's the best kind.
