Find a Way

Finally, My new freeride video, Chronicling my 2011 season, from freeriding in Utah, to training locally, to my few competitons. Includes my 2nd and 1st place runs at sea otter, my 1st place run in Ranchstyle, and my 12th place qualifying footage from Rampage. If you don't like the music, hit the mute button :) Been a while since I put out a video, hopefully it was worth the wait.

 hey man. im sure you've heard this loads before and i bet it pisses you off when you get asked it. apart from the DJ stuff, does any of the other stuff take skill. ive done drops and gaps(not as big as them) and for me its not hard to do it, its just getting balls. for sure it would get more skillfull if tricks were getting thrown down but to me all it is, is throwing yourself off a cliff and making sure your wheels land evenly

dont get me wrong i think what your doing keeping the sport alive is sick!

 What you're saying is true, until you get into the utah style stuff with soft sand landings, and different angle take offs, different speeds ect...Basically when you hit drops above 20 ft it's a whole different ball game, you have to keep stable in the air, and holding on to the landings is insanely hard with higher drops, especially in rampage style stuff. And the ammount of skill it takes to negotiate the technical stuff is what separates us from the rest. Granted, yes, most people can hit a 30 ft drop, but can you hit 8 of them in a row, linked up with steep hills and techy sections and stop in time to not fly off the next one. Honestly, dirtjumping is FAR easier than old-school style freeriding. IMO anyways

 gravity project- every time i read someone's comments on how easy it is to do huge drops and that any huckster has no skills, the profile of that person normally has NOTHING exciting in their profile. Why do young kids have sooo much trouble giving this style any credit?? Besides that,suicidedownhiller looks like he has a whole array of riding skills/style. Take it for what it is, hucking is hucking and dirtjumping, street, park are what they are and all of them have their challenges.

 i think you may have misunderstood my comment. i was not saying it was easy, i was saying i dont find drops and gaps hard. i also said i have never done drops of the size wil does. to point i was getting at is as the drops get bigger is it easier or darder compared to say a 10ft drop?

i was not having a dig atall. just curious because this type of riding doesnt appeal to me therefore im not going to huck off some ledges.

 Yeah, I understood what you were asking. Yeah, it's way harder the bigger you go. There's a reason very few people go much bigger than that. You are right though, for the most part on 10 ft drop, you just ride off and hold on

 Pretty rad video. Has that oldschool vibe for sure. I just feel bad for those dirtjumps getting smashed on a fully. I hope you picked up the shovel after the run at 2:10. It needs a few BRRRRAAAAPPP sound effects too.

 Yeah, I build way more than I ride.

 You probably have the best motowhips I've ever seen. People say that Semenuk gets them over 180 degrees and stuff, but your whips are just so much stylish. Enjoyed the video Smile

 This vid is such a refreshing change to the "endless roosting berms in the woods set to an epic soundtrack" type vids that seem to be commonplace at the moment. Some great riding in some truly epic landscape. Proper old style ballsy mountain biking. Well done suicidedownhiller.

 Nice vid man! i like it, wish i got the chance someday of riding some big mountain stuff Big Grin

 Does a suspension bike for Dj help at all ? Never seen one before this...
  • + 2
 Not at all hahaha, I just ride it so it's easier to transition to DH bikes, It's my slopestyle bike, and on the SS courses it is way better, since the jumps are so big. It's just easier for me to train on for comps.
