http://www.vimeo.com/2030633We met up with Irish Pro Ben Reid and his Mechanic Alister Beckett, to get a few riding and interview clips for the teaser trailer of the film.  We got a good few shots of Bens team wagon ‘the Thunder Truck’ at his house, and checked out some of the mad contraptions he has made like his petrol powered bmx and gopeds.

We then headed down the road to the Lead Mines where Ben usually does one of his cross country training rides.  The sun was starting to set as we were up there, and there is limited potential as far as trails go, but we got some ok photos and footage that we can hopefully use for the teaser.

It will be a while before we shoot Bens proper downhill section as he waits to hear what his new sponsors will be for the 2009 race season, but we plan to push the limits with him and come up with a few cool ideas.

The teaser is due to online in around 2-3 weeks so keep checking back here or register to be emailed with new content as it comes in.
