We laugh at danger and break all the rules.

I thought this was pretty funny. He got it done!

He is Carson Storch, the cyclist. I am Gunnar, the cinematographer. Together we share our passion of mountain biking through the art of film. Trigger Vision presents Carson Storch’s 2010 bike season. After multiple months of work we have finished our final piece and as life hits us beneath the knees we know it has been a long and exciting run. In a few days we will part ways as I head off to college and he finishes high school and pursues his passion for bikes. Who knows where life will take us next but until then enjoy the shots we captured this summer.

Did you get all that? Nah.. me neither. But there are some big loopy 3s and an amazing looking trail in here which is what we like!

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.

BOOOOOOM! Live the dream this weekend!

Some cool racing footage in here. Kid makes a nasty sound!

Drew and I headed out to Oxy for a few quick runs this week. I had the little point and shoot with me so we put this edit of some of Drews runs together. Very nice for a few hours work I thought.

Ride free y’all!

Pretty cure this edit is French. Looks like a mad fun dust bowl to hoon around in. Edit has some cool stuff in it. EXCEPT!!!! for the weird panel bits. Who’s fucking idea was that chat!

Not a lot happening in today in MTB world. There are some videos walking through the US Nationals course, but I’ll wait for riding footage. Search for ‘em on Vimeo if you are keen.

In the mean time, this photo by Damian Breach cheered me up today. Photo just looks like plain old fun times! Makes me wish I had a backyard!
