We laugh at danger and break all the rules.

Oh man this trail is rad. Have a cracking weekend yo!

Breakfast with Clay Porter: Life Cycles – More Mountain Bike Videos

If Clay Porter is stoked on your movie you know you’ve killed it.

Transition rider Skye Schillhammer flows through a sweet looking trail under the trees.

It’s what we’ve been waiting for and today the Monster Energy Slopestyle went down. With blazing hot temperatures and dry conditions some of the top 16 riders in the world hurled themselves down the course with not much regard to bodies or safety. The day started at checking out the skills and finesse of the trials bikers over near the local creekbed. From there it was off to the Cheese rolling championships! Yes we saw people hurtling down the hillside all to grab that wheel of cheese. A now annual competition this British favorite shows who is willing to chase the “cheese”.

After we filled ourselves with the cheese antics we checked out the village scene and got into position for the big show. After seeing Casey Groves tailwhip the Monster stepdown, then soon to be winner Cam Zink 360 it this course was open for the slaughter. Highlights were seeing near perfect runs by Brendan Semenuk and Darren Berrecloth, Both getting injured on the last hit the Kokanee showtime booter the rest of the field were waiting to take control. Cam Zink, Mike Montgomery and Casey Groves had top notch runs but it was Cam Zink’s 2nd qualifying run which sealed the deal with technical trickery and huge airs.

Freecaster TV just posted up Brandon Semenuk’s winning run for the 2009 Claymore Challenge. This run is so dialled. Not a single sketchy moment. Very impressive. Earned him a cool $5k on the day.

So I watched this video. Really nice flowy trail, I’m guessing in Canada somewhere. Smooth rider, so I’m like, this is pretty cool. Then BAM! No Footed Can Can! BAM! Back Flip! Then I’m like, wow this fella can ride. Then I find out he’s only 16. This made me think;

1. I am old
2. I suck at riding
3. I wish I was in Canada right now.

Thanks Daryl! Jerk!!!!!
