    Self film. Spent way too long in a coffee shop putting this together. Do you think we need more creativity in MTB?

      Sick riding! Nice editing too, but at the end of the day when it comes to what we care about – sick riding!! 😁🤘

      I dont necessarily think we NEED more, but obviously it’s cool to see new stuff. Look at the video Red Bull just posted with David godziek; the man is riding a course on top of a moving train matching speeds so he stays “at the same spot.” I do however see what you are saying from more of an editing/post-production side. It would be cool to see some people that take on an “edit-heavy” video style. At the same time I love raw content too, just uploading GoPro footage and hearing the sound of the tires on the dirt, the hub, seeing the hand moments, the braking etc. you look like a pretty decent rider and I’m sure you know what I’m talking about. This is basically a way of me saying I don’t think it’s needed but it could be cool. PS love the music choice:)

      yeah. most mtb content is repetitive and unoriginal even if the riding is good. you see stuff that sticks out now and then – I really liked [The Rare Folk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mA19d7OoS38) for example. Super creative, unique, good riding, great vibes, etc. Seems like the audience mostly just wants red bull rampage on repeat but I find a lot of that kind of content pretty devoid of personality. super gnarly shit can be creative and interesting too – Brage’s vids are wildly better than most other free ride crews.

      It’s all a matter of opinion, of course but I really like it when films are more than just clips slapped together. Skateboarding is way ahead of MTB in this regard.

      and this edit was fun! thanks for putting it out there.

      Felt like I was watching a music video from the 90s (Beastie Boys, Jane’s Addiction, etc.) but with MB content instead of skate boarding / surfing. Excellent stuff!

      Two questions:

      1) why do you pretend to be Brandon Semenuk

      2) is heavily over edited footage considered “creativity” these days
