Over the years, Thomas has filmed numerous riding segments in BC’s interior, dialing in those massive whips that he’s known for. Whether it’s sending massive doubles or railing corners, his riding style and composure on the bike are highlighted with Kamloops’ terrain. Cinematography: Harrison Me...

"Back and forth, forward and back. Mastery on the bike comes from constant repetition. Whether it’s your hundredth time down a trail or you’re about to drop into a new one for the first time, steady, well-rehearsed motions are what will get you through. So ride fast and send it deep, because the...

Sitting at 8,909 ft above sea level, Crested Butte, CO is one of the origins of mountain biking. In the mid 70’s, Crested Butte’s free-spirited locals began riding the treacherous 12,000 ft mountain passes on heavy, one-speed klunkers. While those early days were more high elevation sufferfest t...

Thomas Vanderham and Remi Gauvin have both been to Norway before, but it’s one of those places that keeps drawing them back. With newly built mountain bike trails with a strong historic culture of moving through the mountains, the Nordfjord region has endless opportunities for adventure. Presenti...

Thomas Vanderham is no stranger to at least two things: mountain biking's legendary North Shore, for one; and the clarity that a good ol' fashioned bike ride gives. In Rupert Walker's latest Raw 100, Vanderham affords you the chance to experience both. The rules are well known by now but they b...

Once your shuttle road starts being only partially covered in snow you know it's time to shred. Rest assured winter hasn't made these lads any less steezy! Riders are Thomas Vanderham, Graham Agassiz, Luke Beers and Matt Hunter.

After a long season of travel for races, film projects, and competition, Dakine riders Graham Agassiz, Casey Brown, Carson Storch, and Thomas Vanderham had one last location on their hit list late in 2017—the twisted desert terrain of Southwest Utah. Like many of the 4.5 million people that...

Thomas Vanderham's moment of clarity came when he was ten years old. After witnessing a neighbor kid doing wheelies in an alley, Vanderham set out to master the technique himself. His first attempt was spastic and short lived, but for a brief moment he felt that perfect balance point. That feeli...

Ride the shore they said. It'll be fun they said. Have a good laugh with the always entertaining crew from IFHT films.

It all had to start somewhere... In the backwoods of British Columbia, Canada, three small but dedicated crews of adventure seekers were quietly changing the course of a sport and carving their paths in history. And it was all happening unbeknownst to each other, the cycling world, and ultimatel...

The Collective is a film that portrays freeride progression while exploring the thoughts and personalities of the riders leading that progression. A collective approach to producing the film has created something that fully reflects the depth of the sport and those who are pushing its boundaries.

After weeks of building Rhythm, the action begins — crashes, bad weather and lots of jumps. "I always wanted to do a downhill Supercross-style trail," says Bas van Steenbergen of his mega trail project, Rhythm. Produced and directed by Harrison Mendel, Rhythm is the ultimate mountain bik...

This course is something that I've always wanted to ride or build, says Rhythm course creator Bas van Steenbergen. Having these super technical rhythm sections, big jumps and sick turns all in one trail was a dream come true for me. Watch the video above to see van Steenbergen's super trail shr...

The trails of the Whistler Bike Park have seen their fair share of screen time over the years, from segments in our past films to your next-door-neighbour's POV edit. So, when it came time to filming the bike park segment for unReal, we knew we had to do something different. Many people have ask...

I went on my first photo shoot with Sterling Lorence as a 15-year-old kid. It was my first time shooting for a mountain bike film and Sterl had just recently received his first ever cover of BIKE Magazine. Safe to say that a lot has changed for both of us over the last decade and a half. The comb...

This is so good. Throwback 10 years before the learning curve at Rampage was straightened out. Violent crashes, Berrecloth's first major MTB event and Tyler "Super T" Klassen with the win.
