Chris Akrigg

An in depth look at what Chris Akrigg is up to at the moment and a bit about what makes him tick. As you'll see, he's still not up to full speed since falling off a cliff but he's getting there. Shot and edited by Alex Rankin.

Shlohmo - Remixed

This is the brand new video for a really excellent new track. Our friends at Video Marsh dropped this gem late last night.

The video seems to delve into a massively deranged psychology. The first and last shots of this video add an extremely dark overtone to an otherwise hypnotically pleasant hallucination. The high contrast between the wonderfully colourful abstract moving shapes continually merging and dissolving into one another offset by vague images of remembered faces floating to the surface increased the impact of the already undeniably dark and macabre finale.

There is definitely a lot of hidden stuff in this one, you might want to watch it again.

Invergarry update

The start of the freeride trail

new lines

The contractor has been hard at work on the features we designed for the new freeride trail in Invergarry Park. Here are a few photos we took this morning in Invergarry Park.

While the bike park is under construction, we ask that you give the machine operators room to do their work. Please Stay out of the work area. It won't be long until its complete!

Valmont bike park

This is QuadCopter aerial video of Valmont bike park located in Boulder, Colorado. This City park has everything, gravity fed lines, all levels jumps, and features normally reserved for resort-type bike parks like Whistler. What the folks at Alpine bike parks have created looks epic.

La Poma bike park

Roy Groenewegen going big on the dirt jumps at the La Poma bike park. This is a City bike park located in Barcelona, Spain. In my opinion this is the future of City bike parks, rider-designed and executed.

INVERGARRY UNDER CONSTRUCTION

We are pretty pumped that the bike park in Invergarry park is under construction. The contractors have been busy building some really great Whistler-style features on the new freeride trail. They will also be building a pump track and some other really cool features. I'm not going to give too much away, so just enjoy this time-lapse of a some building/packing work being completed.

Remember: While the bike park is under construction, we ask that you give the machine operators room to do their work. Please Stay out of the work area. It won't be long until its complete!

We will still need lots of help after the machines are done. There will still be some packing and finishing of the new trails, jumps and the pump track. We also hope to have some tree planting days closer to fall.
