 Liam that was fantastic!! your camera operating is insane, every shot is just so lush and smooth! definitely digging those real wide shots too, and the fast moving glidcam shots are great! stoked! this just made me want to go film, and go ride at the same time

 With so many VOD's being over produced bike adverts this was so refreshing.It has so much originality to it .Yeah there were jumps etc but not everyone can relate to a guy jumping 4 buses or doing a trick the Crusty Demons would be happy with . It was just a guy shredding the trail and someone shooting what he saw...this is one very good all round video and maybe the only vid i have seen worthy since fast focus last put a vid out.....thanks for sharing your skill ......

 I breath...the dust of the earth. My sweat stains aluminum and steal. I speak in grunts. i answer in groans. I rely on mineral oil. i believe in rubber. I climb. I descend. I even ride chair lifts. but i always pedal. I may live elsewhere BUT I BELONG IN WHISTLER

 Great vid mate, thanks. Rally good mix of audio, music to bike noises. I can always tell how much impression a video has on me by how much I want to ride. It's night time, I have the flu and yet I'd go shuttle right now if someone pulled up with a truck!

 awesome stuff Liam! Kirk also has to stop being so damn smooth so that the stuff looks as gnarly as it is haha
