Oliwer Kangas, a Swedish enduro rider, is one of our great local riders but is now focused more on the great fun of riding full suspension mountain bikes. This was one of those cloudy Saturdays in the capital of Sweden with the perfect fit for taking the bike out on the local trails and smashing it! We had a great time shooting the Stumpjumper S-Works being ridden on a popular, part of the trail—but this day it was empty.
Oliwer has a lot of KOMs in this forest and his way of pumping yet gently absorbing the ground and rock gardens is a balanced combo of skills, endurance, and love of riding. Enjoy!
I do love a good "trail" video however it would be great to see it filmed with a chest mounted gimbal.
@JanB time to put plus tyres on
Some of my fav vids are from the Chromag guys where they are "trail" riding on hardtails. It "feels" very much like the stuff you could ride yourself altho maybe not as fast rather than someone like Semenuk who is just so insanely talented I could never hope to pull of 1% of what he can do.
It's a tough one as I would still rather be riding a lame peddly trail than sitting in front of the computer watching someone else do it.
If this kind of trail building was extended to places with real drop then the trails could go on forever.
Reminds me of this:

Forget loooong flowy descents, you to mail it to enjoy it.
Pretty average vid....
I'd gladly ride it and meant no disrespect to trail or region. Mum was a Solibakke....
