Merry Christmas from New Zealand
It was the week before Christmas, and all through the land, festive cheer was spreading, so we gave it a hand. We decided to have a bit of a laugh and put together this super high-budget Christmas mini-edit. We got ourselves a rad local shredder – Joe Nation – put him in an extremely high-quality Santa suit, handed him a beer and sent him off down a hill. It was edge-of-your-seat stuff as the trousers ripped and got caught in the seat on almost every turn. Smashed out over a couple of hours, definitely not one to be taken too seriously. We’re lucky we made it out alive.

It is amazing that he still looks so fast with the very long pan shots but I still think that zoom shots works best on his style of riding because they magnify his style of riding in funny way.
