    Incredible. "There's never been someone like you before & there never will be again. So just go your own way and don't doubt yourself". Inspired me!

    Long time fan of the Athertons. Ever since Dans crash he has come back stronger than ever. Great to see him still being able to do what he loves. Thanks for the great video and thanks to the Athertons for being superb role models, downhill riders and overall a great family. Well done team.

    This film is pure Zen. Its a portrait of someone whose virtues extend beyond the self. Its a story about a unique spirit who is clearly a deep thinker and who has immense dignity. As an inquiry into the meaning of life, Dan Atherton's story eludes peace and harmony through the simple balance of nature. I was at "Red Bull Hardline" yesterday with hundreds of others. One man made this happen. Dan Atherton. He is a creative genius and whilst mountain biking is not a religion it's spirited congregation can say that here is a man of deep integrity who dares to be original and different. More power to him and his family. Friends and I were building MTB trails in the Shrewsbury hills in the 70's similar to the one by Corris. Now, like most people, were part of the machine.... I am reminded by this film that life is for living and for giving. Great work Dan. Great Film.

    The emotion i get from this video is unreal.
    I think when you truly believe in something it means a hell of a lot to you.
    Thank you for giving me inspiration to pick up my mountain bike in 2010 i have never put it down since

    Having just watched Hardline Tasmania and listened to riders say how hard and unnerving that track is, but shudder at the mention of the original Welsh Hardline track, I had to rewatch this again and see just how much of that revered course was laid down by Dan so long ago, and how it still challenges the best riders in the world 10 years on. Testament to Dan's vision and line building skills. That mountain is special but it needed Dan to bring it to life. I hope this video gets played regularly at Hardline events. Top work Dan and congratulations to the Atherton team, you've changed mountain biking forever.

    The only section I would want to see altered or changed / improved would be at 16:49 you can see how his front tire dipped into a crevass and then there's a 45 degree rick surface that almost kicked out the front wheel.. That section looks like an injury just waiting to happen!
    Other than that, amazing track with stellar lines! Congrats guys, and gals!
    Cheers from Canada!

    "Doing what I knew the way I was supposed to do it really, it was just like, carve a pathway.
    There is no right or wrong decision about which way to go.
    As long as you're one hundred percent committed to that path and you throw everything you have into that path
    There's never been someone like you before & there never will be again. So don't do do it like someone else.
    Just go your own way and don't doubt yourself"
    So inspiring !
    I couldn't understand what he said in the begining of the final speech, could someone tell me ? :)

    Brilliant video Athertons and Red Bull. Two things, can we have a track list for the songs used in the video, and two; I think that Dan needs to become the track builder for FMB, and the UCI DH series.
