This issue’s cover is by our very own Amanda. Do not adjust your set, and no you haven’t put on the wrong glasses… The Hope WMN Enduro at Gisburn Forest…
It’s a competition, but who cares – there are now six new short video edits for you to watch, from some of the best freeriders in the world.
With its Utah setting, massive step shots and metal soundtrack, Cam Zink’s video has the raw feel of the Down Trilogy videos, from the early 2000s, but with GoPros.
Veronique Sandler’s edit takes us back another decade, with a casual 90s vibe – only with much better bikes than back then.
Brage Vestavik brings us something that’s part zombie movie part ‘A Sasquatch stole my bike’.
Brandon Semenuk’s edit combines the freewheel buzz and balletic moves we’ve come to expect.
DJ Brandt has whole MTB/BMX/snowboard mashup vibe going on.
And finally Danny MacAskill goes for a play in the woods, doing things your mum always told you not to.

Vestavik by a country mile for me despite being a big Semenuk fan.
Sandler’s Nothing Kickflip was lovely!
DJ Brandt for me, with Vestavik and Macaskill very close joint second!
Brage’s is the most entertaining for me but it will depend on the judging criteria. If they award perfection over insanity it will go to Semenuk (see Rampage/Justice for Brendog), which I think is a shame, it’s not ice skating!
How many videos are there? I’m sure I can count 6!
Vero for the win because it completely raises the game for female MTB, after party with Brage.
Disgusted by the lack of snow downhill racing!
@andydt82 oops. Too many to count on the fingers of one hand!
@mattkkitch you can vote for your favourite! What do the judges know? Pah!
Vero’s makes me want to go and ride my bike. Got my vote.
Vestavik’s is bonkers though. That skinny at the start looked sketchy enough and he goes and half cabs the thing. And that drop at the end – bloody hell.
Thanks Hannah – voted!
Brage’s for me is the best, loved the sheer speed and attack of Vero’s though (but not so much the broken up editing)
Semenuk’s problem is he is so good he makes stuff look too easy. Brage for me, that 180 on the skinny was nuts
Vero; Vestavik; Brandt is my top 3. Agree with simon_g (Vero vid makes me want to get out and ride) which is why it gets top spot. Vestavik is bonkers and kudos to Brandt for the one foot landing!
Vero – because it actually feels like proper riding and makes me want to grab my bike – I’m not into the gymnastics with a bike stuff (impressive as it obviously is)
