00:31This line's going to be sick, dude.

00:35Hikers are always being looked at as kooks, you know, you don't know until later, until

00:40society has been able to digest it, how rad that was.

00:50The most motley crew of blue-collared kids found a sport that, like, suited them.

00:55Life's too short not to go big.

00:57People were looking at us like we were fucking weirdos.

01:01Did you get that on film?

01:03That was the start of something different.

01:05I want to make the best mountain bike film ever made.

01:09Fame and fortune over integrity.

01:11I made it my mission, no matter what, to just keep crushing those guys.

03:04It's coming full circle now.

03:06Taking it back to the roots.
