Had to be a helicopter or drone. By far the best segment. Soooo smooth.

As much as I wanted to vote for Hill, Its just hard to beat a heli. Still, congrats on putting together an awesome piece.
Yup. Voted for him.
I liked the first shot on hodges' video with the half pipe kind of thing

Hahhaa, for sure. They are all sick! Hit us with a vote tomorrow. I think you can do it once a day.
Anyone got a link to hills video? I could only find Jimmy Hill.
Haakers was sick but i wish it featured more of the technical stuff he can do
There are two kinds of people against dirt bikes, those who never tried and those who weren't good at them.

His was cool, but I think too much emphasis was put into the helo shot. His other vids where he does 360s and technical stuff is way more impressive than some little scrub jumps.

No it was just beef between crews. Josh Hill did it at Deegans House and was going to release it online before this stuff came out.

He teased it with Deegans kid posting on insta and Josh posted a few photos of it. Maybe he realized that it wasnt cool to release the shot. Sounds like Josh is putting out his own part later on.
Honestly I don’t know the answers, I think there’s a whole thread on here about it the debate. I actually think Travis Prestrana did it first in the action figures movie?
Honestly I really liked Haaker's very smooth and great scenery which made it much better.
Joe the video you produced for Hill is outstanding, unique camera angels, and a completely different feel to all the other videos. Hope you guys win, i'll be voting for you every day for you guys. Great work

Thanks man! Lots of cool videos, contests and judging is very subjective. Different groups of judges will produce different results. Fun to rub elbows with those dudes, they are all animals!
Haaker’s video is the best one, just from the planning and time put into building that setup. It’s fucking cool
The location and layout itself is worth the vote! I would love to know what into building that and how long it took.
Haaker's part was sick and was by far filmed the best. I also loved Axel's part just because he has amazing style.
If you guys haven't watched Colby Raha's part, he goes the biggest. And it's just classic old school free riding. The part screams Crusty Demons of Dirt!
Axel was great, but Colton's segment was the only one that gave me goosebumps and made me want to go ride. Taken as a whole, Colton's was better and seemed way more like a single coordinated piece than just different tricks edited together.
The fact that Haaker's video was one solid clip-with the exception of the very beginning-and it wasn't cut all up in the editing room-with different angles of the same jump-makes it the most impressive video of all of them (he had to do all of those perfect in the same run to get them in one shot). He gets my vote.
Foster, Raha, and Haaker were just nuts!! I don't know who I'd give the nod to....maybe Haaker his piece was so fluid and smooth. All very nice.

Thanks for the vote! We had Shaefer Tracks come out and build it! It was a complete black slate out there and pretty sketchy for the dozers to build. They built it over three days and I honestly have no clue how Shane was able to build it with no water and only being able to build in one direction. Once each jump was built they couldn't drive back over the sections because it was so dry.
We have a full length iTunes film coming out towards the end of this year and you'll be able to see a lot more of this line and how it was built.
As for the other videos (all were so damn good)... Jimmy and Joe get my vote for the best all around video. The riding and filming were perfect. Plus I'm a big Hillsack fan!
Also, people trying to claim it's a copy of Brandon Semenuks clip should do a little research. Skiing, snowboarding, and skateboarding have been doing one shot/one take segments for decades...
Colton has a rad style, plus the single take makes it so much more impressive. He definitely gets my vote.
This was a challenge and an honor. With Colton setting his focus and the location, we worked collectively with Jimmy to create this truly unique experience.
The greatest challenge was timing because it was virtually impossible to get water to the site which called for heavy rains during the construction with mother nature’s blessing.
We only had one opportunity to build it because we were unable to go back over the faces of each obstacle to get to another for changes or alterations. The mountain ridge was so narrow it didn’t allow to go around any feature and the jumps were so steep it surely didn’t allow going overtop.
1 mile of pure pleasure, not only to witness, but to build. Thanks to Colton for the opportunity and to Jimmy for capturing the incredible moments.
You can see a few of the shots or a quick video clip I just put up on instagram @schaefertracks
