Jump aboard the new COMMENCAL T.E.M.P.O with Hugo Frixtalon in British Columbia for this edit that oozes that late summer heat feel!
The T.E.M.P.O is our brand new short travel trail bike, a real playful powerhouse, designed to make the most of all those dream trails where the terrain is just calling out for you to enjoy.
Postcard from San Francisco is MacAskill’s first out-and-out MTB street trials edit for more than a decade, it is a display of his phenomenal bike handling skills and determination to go for the biggest (and riskiest) bangers.
Kiran MacKinnon is a human dyno. When Santa Cruz Bicycles needs to test, experiment and validate suspension then Kiran is the one of the main people we call on to do that work. Not only is he an extremely talented bike rider and incredibly knowledgeable about suspension, but he can actually interpret and translate what he’s feeling in a way that he can communicate to the rest of the engineering team. This enables them to cross-reference the data they’ve collected with real life, on-trail experience to build better bikes and provide the right setup for our riders. We’re constantly refining our VPP™ suspension as well as the damping tunes shocks we spec on our bikes in order to make sure our bikes ride really, really good.
Kona Gravity Rider and North Shore native Caleb Holonko has been turning heads with his classic mix of heavy hitting and super stylish riding. On a recent visit to the Kootenays with his Process X, he teamed up with local filmer Logan Williams and put together this solid clip that just scratches the surface of what both Caleb and the region have to offer.
“Throughout my life, I’ve spent many summers road tripping to the B.C. interior with very minimal exploration outside of Christina Lake. After seeing so many friends post and rave about the amazing trails, I decided to venture to Castlegar and Nelson for my first taste. Man, did it deliver! Endless single track, crazy woodwork, and some untouchable flow trails! It was great to put my little flair on trails that I normally would just chill through.
Thanks to all the trail builders that are killing it out there! I would love to buy you a bunch of beers, ya’ll are crushing it” – Caleb Holonko

Where has the video gone
Interesting discussion on this video clip with Ray Dulieu (Founder of Freecaster) over on FB and how damaging it has been to have this video posted: http://www.facebook.com/Freecaster
Very interesting read, from what i understand the deal with Rocky Roads to sponsor the World Cup and World Champs is so shrouded in controversy that its a big reason for Freecaster.tv not coming back. $10 is a lot to watch a run… i’m in two minds whether to take it down or not but the people watching this aren’t Freecaster.tv customers. If Scott Bikes, Trek and a few others can get together and bankroll the entire MTB World Cup, why cant the industry at large chip in and pay for a weeks racing? That’s my question.
Looks like all the videos have been pulled now, although the horse has certainly bolted.
While a discussion better suited to bull-shitting-over-beer…it is an interesting problem for content producers who provide a lot of ‘free’ (like Spoke) that consumers start to expect it all to be free. I agree that it would be easier if everything were sponsor supported but I am guessing you know better than anyone that it doesn’t always pan out that way. That said Ray’s saying now that he will only go for sponsorship deals from this point on or not do it. Makes life easier for him I guess in the end.
By the way, there were a bunch of outstanding runs that afternoon. Rightly so Hart’s has overshadowed them all but Pascal sliding into 5th with bars so high he should have been catching his chin on them, Barel’s final run with 4 broken ribs putting him into 10th, Brendog smoking into 4th, Blenki’s almost silver medal run with two mistakes that cost him and Spagnolo’s run that had him on the hot seat for most of the day it seemed… and then there was the Bryceland crash, a V10 has never spun so fast or gone so far!! Almost enough to make me want to buy the DVD really…
Freecaster have now posted it which is why everyone seems to be pulling the YouTube copies…http://freecaster.tv/mountainbike/1017618/uci-mtb-dhi-world-championships-2011-danny-harts-run
