"Standing at 185cm (or 6'1 for those of use who use the customary system) and built more like an NFL player than a mountain biker, Brage is a towering figure of freeride both literally and figuratively. While he might not look like your average mountain biker, his uniqueness is far more than skin deep - his approach to riding, his spot selection and his style are all one of a kind. Instantly recognizable and infinitely gnarly, Brage is a true one of one rider who seeks to push himself and mountain biking as a whole to new heights."
"His latest video part Trolldom began long before Brage got the invite from North Shore legend Steve Vanderhoek to "come and check out this zone." The legendary North Shore has played host to many of mountain biking's most iconic video segments from the early days of New World Disorder to the modern era the North Shore is a staple of freeride culture. It's a place where farfetched ideas and monumental builds come to life."
"From X-Games medals to participating in Red Bull Rampage, Brage Vestavik is a rider who has done many things most of us mere mortals can only dream of. In his latest video project Brage takes his big mountain dreams a step further, making them a reality by tackling some of BC's premiere big mountain terrain as only he could."
Brage Vestavik is a towering freeride rider whose achievements include X-Games medals and competing at Red Bull Rampage. He pursued big-mountain lines in British Columbia for his video Trolldom, working with North Shore figure Steve Vanderhoek to explore that terrain. Brage's 185cm frame and distinctive, gnarly style set him apart, and his riding emphasizes unique spot selection and monumental builds. Early life in Mysen, Norway involved constant biking, building features, and recreating skinnies from video clips in miniature, influenced by Canadian riders like Darren Berrecloth. He aims to push personal limits and advance freeride culture.
