Customer Review: Light on specifics
This DVD provides lots of material illustrating many different mountain biking activities and techniques; however, it gives very little in the way of specific instructions. It’s better for showing what’s possible than for explaining how to perform the various skills. As such, it’s probably better for riders who have lots of time to experiment than for those wanting something more along the lines of a lesson.
Customer Review: mountain bike DVD
Arrived in excellent condition, in the time frame promised. Very good DVD, not really for the beginner, though. DVD extras were worth the price, bike maintenance and adjustment.

Search for the Holey Trail: Mountain Biking The film features spectacular footage from Australia, Canada, France, Morocco, Mexico, Spain, Switzerland, and the U.S. Building on the first three films of the Kranked Trilogy, “Search for the Holey Trail” incorporates Radical Films’ trademark spectacular 16mm footage, crisp edits and tweaked special effects. Not to forget a fantastic story line as Brett Tippie, Justin Davies, Wade Simmons, Dangerous Dan and the rest of the best mountain bikers in the world, let it all hang out for the cameras and your viewing pleasures.
Customer Review: Search For The Holy Trail
Kranked 4 Was an incredable film. Bjorn Enga Put the best riders together for one of the best mt. bike films of the year. There is everything from Trials with ryan leech to the shore with dangerous dan,wade simmions,brett tippe and others. Some other riders are Dave Swetland, Dimitri Coste, Gareth Dwyer, Justin Davies, Lewis King, Lionel Sequera, Mark Davis, Randy Spangler, Richie Schley,Tarek Rasouli and Thomas “the Kid” Vanderham. I would say anyone who truly enjoys Bikes can appreciate The Entertainment and ture skill involved into making this fiick.
Customer Review: Great Footage, Incredible Extra Features
This is an absolutely fantastic DVD! Many people refer to this flick as “Kranked IV” because of its place within the lineup of the previous three Kranked films. Anyone who is familiar with those episodes will love this one as well. It is chock full of incredible freestyle mountain biking clips that leave you in awe of the riders and in anticipation of the next limit-pushing feat. But what’s even more stunning about these clips is the settings that they are shot against. This DVD takes you to Australia, Morocco, Vancouver, France, Switzerland, Mexico, Spain, and the United States. Its like watching 8 Discovery Channel documentaries with mountain biking gurus as your guides. I could do without the cheesy interludes where they try to tie together the scenes with some kind of plot. But the few minutes that are wasted on these scenes are more than compensated for in the incredible amount of bonus features that are packed onto this DVD. You get extra scenes, intereviews with nearly all of the bikers, music videos, a shortened Director’s narrative, and even trailers of Kranked II and III which, by themselves, are worth their weight in gold. All in all, this DVD goes above and beyond what you might expect to find on a special interest DVD. If you are a mountain biking enthusiast, buy this DVD and enjoy every minute of it. I know I did. Have Fun!
