A Christmas Story

A young biker rides up a snowy mountain to get dinner at a self-service hut (thats how we roll in Bavaria). He rushes downhill to enjoy a simple meal with his little family - in front of a cozy fire. Doing what you love with who you love is what we consider the perfect Christmas Eve.
Have a merry one, everyone!
///////////////
We spent 2 nights shooting this movie, starting at 4 pm in the afternoon and working until long after midnight. During daylight, we would check the route and shape the lines. Shooting in the beginning of december, we were praying for snow and white conditions - and found ourselves out there in the two coldest and most beautiful nights this season (-8 °C). It was quite a challenge, setting the fire and the lights right, keeping the brakes from freezing and the spirits high. We were scared to be freezing really bad, but in the end that was no problem at all - we were even too warm. For all of us, this was a very special shoot with loads of learnings and great fun!
Many thanks to BIKEPARK SAMERBERG for supporting us with the location.

Wir waren auch beeindruckt, wie gut Oli Dorn mit den rutschigen Gegebenheiten klar kam. Mich hätts sicher beim ersten Versuch direkt voll auf die Fresse gelegt, aber er konnte sogar Steilkurven problemlos fahren. Hammer Typ halt ;)
