Nitro Circus stop in to Adelaide for the final show of the Australia tour this year (Due to safety risk) and I finally land one of the hardest BMX tricks I have ever tried. It has taken me 6 years to land the 720 Double Backflip (Double Cork 1440) on BMX and I couldn’t have done it at a more perfect time.
I also try a bunch of other World First tricks during practice and the other athletes throw down as well! – Ryan Williams
FEATURING: NATHAN FLORENCE, JOHN JOHN FLORENCE, IVAN FLORENCE, BILLY KEMPER, ELI OLSON, KOA ROTHMAN, KIRON JABOUR, KAI LENNY, ALBEE LAYER, JAMIE O’BRIEN and RUSSEL BIERKE
From the mind of Chris Benchetler comes TGR’s latest short film collaboration with Flagship Independent. Improvisation is the silver thread that weaves this crew together. Just as the Grateful Dead did not ?t their music into an established category, this short ?lm ?nds a cast of some of the world’s best athletes on a spontaneous journey of skiing, snowboarding, surfing, and music, complete with a soundtrack comprised of only Grateful Dead music.
Narrated by Hall of Fame basketball player and television sportscaster Bill Walton with music supervision by David Lemieux, audiovisual archivist and legacy manager for the Grateful Dead, Fire On The Mountain features some of action sports’ most legendary athletes: snowboarding’s Jeremy Jones, Danny Davis, Kimmy Fasani, surfing icon Rob Machado, and skiers Michelle Parker and Chris Benchetler. Captured over the course of the winter by cinematographer Tyler Hamlet with the help of Sweetgrass Productions, the visual journey features never seen before visual effects within nature and original artwork by Benchetler and Skye Walker.
