Crow’s Feet Commons and Pine Mountain Sports are bringing you a mountain bike double feature in October! We’ll kick off the fall with two films, Builder and Ashes to Agassiz, at COTA Movie Night.
Builder: Building a trail is both an art and a science. The best ones are aesthetic wonders, a stark line of dirt snaking through the most scenic bits of land, a mountain biker’s landscape painting brought to life. Unfortunately there’s no specific formula for trail building – it takes years to master the alchemy of crafting flow. From your first shaky pedal strokes to the game-changing moves of the sport’s top pros, our sport is shaped by shovels and pick axes in endless pursuit of the perfect ride. Builder tells the story of trail building, through the eyes of some of our sport’s best riders and most respected builders.
Builder run time: 51 minutes.
Ashes to Agassiz: For professional mountain biker Graham Agassiz, a relatively benign descent-one he’s done a hundred times before-reached out and smacked him down. With his neck broken and a career in jeopardy, the road back to the top is now lined with dangers and demons.
For Aggy, right now, on so many levels, it’s do or die. This is a story of his teetering on the edge between annihilation and exaltation. Join us as we follow Aggy on this sacred quest, from the freeride mecca of Kamloops, BC to the fiery wilds of Iceland. From the distraught of injury, to the brilliance of epic shred. We’ll tell you now, this film is a trip.
Ashes To Agassiz run time: 21 minutes
