Schuieville Film Shoot Pt 1

Wednesday, 12 May 2010 07:11

This was one of Schuies warm-up Flips over 120-foot ramp to dirt, wait till you see the sequence!

The word was out that Matt "Schuie" Schubring had a film session going down over two days at his compound and the Ten-Pack with Jon Freeman and Dana Nicholson from Fleshwound Films. I jumped straight on my bike and made the two hour trek rolling up just in time for the boys first session. The riders – Schuie, Robbie Marshall, Kain Saul, Jake Bowan, Joel Balchin, Steve Sommerfeld, and Mick Hall warmed up over the 75-foot ramp to dirt and 75-foot dirt to dirt while a pocket of afternoon sun shone through. That didn't last long, so it was decided it was time to hit up Schuies natural terrain hits on the other side of his property, and this is when things heated up. Schuie is the master of big dirt hits and that's why he builds them so faarkin huge. First up they hit the 110-foot to dirt hit, which is a good warm up as the run in is smooth and it pops the riders up nicely over the side of the hill and landing on a nice downhill lander. The boys had fun on this one, ending with six rider trains popping tricks at the same time. The afternoon rolled on as the clouds covered the sky and the light faded. Schuie, Robbie and Joel nailed the 180-footer, and the big step-up that claimed Steve Mini earlier int he year was a hit, but my highlight would have to be when Schuie sacked up and Combo Flipped the 120-foot ramp to dirt hit that the only other rider to hit was Robbie Marshall, its a big girl! Bilko is the only other rider besides these two to hit take it on, with Schuie explaining, "It's scares most riders!" I'll let the pictures tell the story from here as I gotta fly. Schuies cooking up breakfast and then we're off to the Ten-Pack, bring it on! Stay tuned for more photos and footage, cheers Goba.
