Video: Double Podiums at Home in Episode 4' of 'The Jank Files'
After two long years away, the team was finally able to get a chance to race on their home trails in Whistler, BC! There’s always something special about being able to race in your backyard, and with their friends and family in the crowd, the team was ready to push that little bit extra.
The demanding trails in Whistler made for some dramatic racing for the team, bringing huge highs and tough lows. The crowds were loud every time Jesse, Andréane, or Remi came through, egging the trio on, surely helping them find a tenth or two over the weekend. From battling through injuries, double podiums, mega Jenga, and a team win: this is The Jank Files.

Gutted for ALN.
Remi and Jesse, so stoked for you guys.
Some of these pictures are incredible. Screensaver material for sure.
The picture with out of focus Foxglove flowers and Remi dropping down is so amazing, also the picture with Jesse rolling down the rock face is epic.
Thank you

So stoked for Remi! It's gotta feel amazing to get up on that podium in front of a home crowd. Plus being on the top step for the team podium, you love to see it!
