This is a video of Blue Mountain (McNutt) in British Columbia, I would call these the easy trails on the mountain, but still fun for sure. Thanks to Dave Norona for spending the time to make this video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOYvlOv58fc&feature=player_embedded
Looks great. Reminds me of the downhill mtn bike videos I see from your area. Those aren't dual purpose trails are they? mtn bike and dirtbike?
Norona lives the dream life fersure. Check out his youtube vids. He's full time busy riding mtn bikes, sleds, dirtbikes you name it. He's marketed himself well and has a great rep and is respected locally. I think he must be a trust fund kid to live that life
That was a great video. Reminds me of Vedder Mtn. in Chilliwack of coarse minus the 500 other riders that are there. Nice transition between shots. If you watch it again he really could have done the whole thing by himself. Great editing and well put together.
It shows great discipline to actually make that effort of setting up a camera, riding by it, turning around and picking it up...and repeat...lol
I've been scouring a local mountain bike forum lately and Norona has posted a few vids online their as well. In the mtn bike vids he's obvoiusly sponsored by the bike company so he puts together an equally professional video and talks up the bike so I give him credit for the work effort in this video. A bit of a hypocrite tho, on the mtn bike forum he's dissin' dirtbikes for noise, laziness and enviro impact and praising mtn bikes. A few weeks later he's made this. lol Like they say, a good dog doesn't crap in his own yard.
Thanks for the video. I love the way he rides. He has a very fluid and graceful flow to his dirtbike riding (at least I think so). A pleasure to watch. Interestingly; after watching him aboard the Marin mountain bike, I came back to this video and could see the carry over of that graceful and skillful style that he has. I was able to appreciate his style on the dirtbike immensely more after watching him on his mountain bike. I think he's got great trail riding skills, and I wish I was so graceful. Much respect.
