Rider Dylan Forbes enjoying this version of "Mach Chicken". What a trail! Just one of the most flowey natural trails in one of the most beautiful forests we've ever ridden. Everything from fast open single track to tight woods with roots and rocks; and some of the most dialed corners we've seen.


the beautiful forest and mountains of the Sunshine coast.

Ace Hayden, Justin Roy and Dylan Forbes ripping through this wonderful forest...almost magical; the colour, the trails and the scent of fresh air will make you feel alive!


Justin showing us his style on and off the bike.. haha

Everyone knows Justin Roy can rip it up on a slope bike, but here he shows us that he's got skill on everything, as "Dewey" busts out a huge no-foot can on a big DH rig, with Ace Hayden ripping behind him.


Filming in the sunshine coast for summer of summit

What a view as the ferry leaves the dock. It's hard to leave...


But this will be one of the most memorable, but yet forgotten weekends of our lives. The good times on and off the bike...

Thanks again Summit!

 Really enjoyed it, nice riding, great edit and jealous much of the weather. But PLEASE for the love of god can people stop with the 25/30fps - Slo-mo! It only works at like 50-60+fps !

 OR an alternative is to film entirely in 50i and interlace the normal motion shots, and to get buttery smooth slow-mo, blend the frames.

 The video is filmed at 60fps, but due to some software problems frame blending wasn't an option.

 Frame blending is only necessary if filmed in 50i (interlaced) and then slowed down to 50% speed.
If the footage is filmed at 60fps, it should be buttery smooth when played back at 50% in a 30fps sequence.
Not a clue what could've gone wrong, perhaps your shutter speed?

 @DownhillDomination Actually thats a good point, I forgot about the 50i option. Does all depend on camera and software options at the end of the day though!

 Agreed.
The slo-mo looks really choppy and distracting from the content.

If you dont shoot in 60fps - then dont do slow-mo...

 Brilliant video! However, the slow motion edits were not quite up to standards.. 30fps is definitely not something you wanna use :/
