Most of the mountain bike videos, up until this point, have been specially built lines or exotic locales. Even with the occasional Whistler setup or shot through another bike park, there isn’t much backwoods trail riding that really showcases what inspires the pros to ride and what inspires them to get on the bike.
The new video “Inside Out” from the Coastal Crew looks to change that trend by showing what has inspired the Coastal Crew over the years through riding, building and cinematography.
‘Inside Out’ will be the first film in a new annual series that will give an inside look at the influences and people that have shaped the Coastal Crew as riders, builders and cinematographers. The film will be a candid look into our vision of freeride mountain biking and the way it has inspired us. Through the film you will be brought along on our adventures as we visit the locations that we’ve always wanted to ride and create the lines that express our vision of the sport. This will be a film from the riders themselves to show what true freeride mountain biking is. Everyone has a dream, and we do what it takes to live ours.
In addition to the Coastal Crew – Curtis Robinson, Dylan Dunkerton, Kyle Norbraten – the film will feature: Brandon Semenuk, Steve Smith, Thomas Vanderham, Matt Hunter, Graham Agassiz, Mike Hopkins and Kenny Smith.
