I'll be at Silver this weekend biking a little and filming my friend (miralas) ride. Will anyone else be there? I heard something about an Oktoberfest??

Word. Like in the Montana/Wyoming forums 99% of the posts are related to Montana and probably 75% of them are related to Bozeman/Big Sky.

Here is the video of the wreck, I might throw together an edit of the day if I have some spare time.

Thanks man, those trails are super sick and after seeing the mountain I definitely want to go back their this winter and ski.

I have an HV30, I had it set to manual white balance to warm the picture up and a circular polarizer to help with exposure. I also decreased gamma a little in post.

dont get to excited guys.. That trail can be fun at slower speeds but those jumps are all built weird.. you cant hit them with very much speed and do anything other then full moto scrub off them. with any speed they kick weird and bucck the back of the bike up and give you a oh shit feeling..  most of the stuff up there is kinda built weird.. I race jr ex and I still have issues with the jumps that they have built up there..

but OP I hope your buddy gets better.. I havnt seen anyone ride hammer that fast before.. I try but I end up doing what he does.. haha
