Crankworx 2012 - (Un)Offical Whip-Off World Championships
An exciting new addition to Crankworx Whistler’s event calendar is the UnOfficial Whip Off World Championships. The event took place on the Whistler Mountain Bike Park’s gigantic Crabapple Hits. There are no rules in this event; the biggest, most stylish whip takes home the $1,000 cash prize and American Tyler McCaul was the man to do it today.
Thomas Vanderham pulled the second best whip, MVP went to Brendan Fairclough and Cam Zink got an honourable mention. The “best whip not brought back” was Bernard Kerr and on the women’s side Lorraine Brancher came away with kudos. Other titles included in the grassroots event was “best AM whip” pulled by Chris Young, highest air to Jamie Goldman and “best scrub” to Ian Morrison.

Alaska Downhill Brigade
During the summer of 2012 a group of downhill riders, filmers and photographers worked together to create a small downhill mountain bike film at Alyeska Resort. Its not easy to create a film anymore with all the big names in the industry. We are creating this small film 100% out of our own pockets to show what we can do as a team. This is the teaser to our new film project in the making.
