Trevor Attridge - SightLines: Trevor Attridge rides outside the mainline and sends everything he sees. Sometimes, the best line isn’t the one everyone else rides. That’s the line that Trevor finds; popping off anything that even resembles a lip with hopes of catching an ambitious new double. The Norco Sight has been Trevor’s sole mountain bike for two years, taking in everything from typical enduro riding, shuttle laps, bike park days, 8-hour pedal sessions, and even 12-hour racing. Attridge joined forces with filmmaker Max McCulloch just north-west of Duncan, BC to capture his fresh take on the trails of Mt. Prevost and packed the action into SightLines in his new edit.

Kiel Johnson - Winter On Salt Spring Island: Kiel Johnson is a 17-year-old enduro racer from Salt Spring Island, a small island in the Salish Sea. Growing up on Salt Spring - as a mountain biker - is a very difficult thing to do. This is because there aren't many others who share a passion for mountain biking, and until recently there haven't been any enduro-type trails to ride. Kiel's passion and love for all things mountain biking has started a groundswell on this quiet little island and led to the planning phases of a sanctioned mountain bike park. Follow Kiel as he shows you around the local trails and what is the basis for an expanding trail network.

Nothing To See Here: A good time on trails.
Equilibrio: "Equilibrio" is Spanish and stands for balance. For the twins it is important to have a perfect work/life balance. That's why there's no better option for them than to end and start the year in Barcelona on their bikes with all the homies. The bike park LaPoma is perfect for this and is the dream of every biker. As twins, they often complement each other, like yin and yang, black and white.
Nathan Williams - etnies X DIG BMX - Chapters 'RAW': During an era where they had one of the most revered and well-rounded teams in modern-day BMX, etnies released the full length video “Chapters” in 2017. With 35 trips over a period of three years, throughout 15 countries, at both legendary and new spots, the team shared good times, friendships, sometimes adversity, and have shed blood, sweat, and tears, along with groundbreaking and sometimes downright scary feats. Take a look back at Nathan Williams' compiled footage for his epic ender "Chapters" section, with unseen angles, some of the trials and tribulations, as well as the exhilaration of pulling them. Nathan put in work for this one, and the resulting section is stellar, even six years after the fact.

Ryan Connors' "Dish Pit" Part: Ryan’s power-packed approach vaults from harrowing gaps and speedy lines to some of the wildest mannies you’ve ever seen. Get in the pit.
Rio Morishige's "LENZ III" Tightbooth Part: Armed with light-speed flick and a mean mohawk, Rio charges the Japanese streets, ducking security, and gliding across gorgeous granite. Blink and you might miss a clip.
Emily Harrington Free Climbs El Capitan's ‘Golden Gate': Emily Harrington couldn't ignore the magnetic pull of El Capitan’s ‘Golden Gate’ (5.13). Here Emily shows us that it’s just as much about the journey as it is about the destination.
Salt Lake City - Over Yonder: Filming in Salt Lake City can feel like a struggle. So many people in the snowboarding community live there, and when it snows in the streets, it's a mad dash to the steel. You can drive around all day, and see lips built everywhere you look. To ride something new you need a creative mindset, you need to spend countless hours driving around searching for something new, and you need an attitude that doesn't quit. Brandon Davis, Jed Sky, and Kyle Mack took advantage of the early season snowfall in the city, and managed to bag several NBD's (Never Been Done), despite all the factors that make SLC tough to film in. Spots like the West Valley Skatepark Rainbow rail was finally done by Brandon, and the Tooele up rail got absolutely destroyed by Jed and Brandon. The things that are most interesting to us, are things we've never seen before. Even though it's filmed in arguably one of the most snowboarded cities ever, this crew manages to leave their mark in a unique way. Enjoy!

A film by Black Koles. Featuring the riding of Erik Leon, Frank April, and Marie-France Roy.
Float: Before she dies, the 82-year-old Bubbe wants to learn how to swim, as chronicled in a short documentary by her granddaughter, Azza Cohen.
